These little 432 are extremely cool Magnatones - they have BOTH the Pitch Shifting Vibrato and tube Tremolo circuit - and they have Tube Reverb - all into a 12 inch speaker in a nice compact 20 x 22 x 10 inch package. What's not to love?! Oh, well they do use a slightly rare ELL80 power tube (about 12 watts) but the tubes last a long time in these babies. Magnatones are extrenmely well built amps. This amp cost $200 bucks brand new back in 1966!

I have a really cool and unique sounding '60s Estey Magnatone amp. Single 12" Speaker. It is all in good shape, I had it gone over and the power plug replaced with a grounded one by Brian Sours. Being a '60s tube amp it's not the quietest amp in the world, but it's what you'd expect. The reverb, trem and vibrato all work, and I believe the footswitch outs work as well, but I don't have a footswitch to try them. The three inputs all provide their own cool character, and allow you to go from a clean vibrato spaghetti western tone all the way to way loud raunchy overdrive. It is about 12 watts, and I would say in the same power range as a Blues Junior. Let me know if you want to try it out.

I heard back from this seller and this amp is still available for sale. Don't be fooled into thining this isn't a terrific amp because it lacks the "True Vibrato" circuit. Magnatones were top quality amps of their day - as expensive and reliable...
- Magnatone Mp-1 In Charlotte Nc For $300
This Estey Magnatone does not have the True Vibrator circuit, however it has been adapted to us 6V tubes instead of the much more pricey and rare 7189A so what your are basically getting is a vintage Deluxe Reverb amp for $300. Not bad at all. Note:...

This amp needs some work - and they are pretty tricky to repair so be forewarned. Still... I see these going ofor more than double (triple?) this price all the time.

- Magnatone M-4 Tube Amp In La For $280
I can't find much info on these M-4 models but the Custom "suitcase" Maggies are supposed to sound pretty good (though techs hate working on them). This would be a rare oppoprtunity to get a working Maggie w True Vibrato and Reverb for under $300....
