I contacted this seller and this amp is still available. These M15's are some of the best amps that Magnatone ever made. Stereo "True Vibrato" and dual output transformers along with gorgeous Reverb. You can't do much better than this as far as rare and outstanding vintage guitar amps. If the previous (original?) owner really did put an 18 inch speaker in there then this would be a mind-altering jazz guitar amp though it is likely it is just a 15 inch - I doubt you could fit an 18).
They are looking to sell it to a "good home" so please don't try to lowball or scam them. Just contact them if you are actually planning to purchase and use the amp.
I would be buying this amp for myself but I can't think of any delivery service i would trust with one of these amps - they are big and heavy and easily damaged.
I also included a youtube link to a guy playing through an M15 - check out the tone on his version of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - you'd have to use a real Leslie rotating speaker cabinet to get that kind of tone in the studio. Amazing.

This is a vintage Magnatone Guitar Amplifier. We are currently not using and wish to sell it to someone who will appreciate and use it. I believe that my Father modified it with a single 18" speaker before he passed away. Amp is in good working order and practically indestructible. Comes with wheel cart for easy transportation. Price is negotiable, CASH only please.

This amp may have already been sold but i just spotted the listing so here it is. Magnatone Custom 260 2x12 tube amp circa 1958-1962. Seller says that it is in great cosmetic and working condition - though there is no photo on the listing....
- Magnatone Custom 415 Tube Amp In Dallas Area For $300
From the glorious late 1950's comes this Magnatone 415 "Bass amp." Get this: It has 25 watts of pure tube output and four 8-inch speakers. Think it might sound good for guitar? This model Magnatone does not have the patented "True Vibrato" circuit...
- Magnatone 440 Tube Amp In Philly For $375
I am always tracking Magantones for sale around the country - if I'd have seen thisone for sale I'd have probably bought it while I was back in Philly for the Christmas Holiday (I drove past Plymouth Meeting at least 6 times while I was there)....
- Magnatone M10 In Albany Ny - Needs Some Work - $300
The seller says this amp need "a 3-prong cord and an overhaul" - I am not sure what that means exactly - but even though it only has an 8 inch speaker the M-10 is a nice amp - and it does have a speaker out to drive larger cabinets. A note the the unexperienced...
- Magnatone 130-v In Fort Worth For $90
I already called this guy and this amp was SOLD in one day (of course) but this would make an amazing Jazz amp since he told me it it had a 15 inch JBL speaker and the Magnatone true Vibrato in Stereo. It is a solid state amp but that is fine for Jazz...
