Benson 300 tube combo amp in Redondo Beach CA for $800
This seller is offering a very rare and desirable amp from the late 60's called a Benson 300. These were pro amps popular with studio players back in the day and you don't see them for sale very often. Sort of like the Standel Bass amps in the sense that studio players bought them, used them, and held onto them.
It looks like this one has the original 15" Altec Lansing speaker which would make it a Model 300.
There is some info about an Elvis connection to Benson amops on the Scotty Moore website if you click here: BENSON AMPS

- Standel 100 Watt 2x15 Amp In Grand Rapids For $350
Standel amps are prized by Studio Bass players and this one may be good for guitar as well (has Reverb and Tremolo). Either way this should be a nice amp. It is probably as heavy as a freakin' refrigerator - but that's all part of the fun, right?...
- Vintage Plush And Flotatone Tube Guitar Amps In Omaha For $300
I've seen these Plush heads but never a huge combo like this - do you see that row of (at least) six 6L6 power tubes? Cowabunga! This thing could move mountains. And it sure is "plush." The Flotatone is more of a well-known commodity - and...
