This is a neat little Student amp from Magnatone and it is in beauuuuutiful condition. These 50C5 power tubes are not loud but with the 12AX7 it should sound pretty darn nice. This is a "widowmaker" so careful how you plug it in but you shoud know that already. I love these little vintage amps for the studio.

Very Clean - clearly it was a closet queen! Leather handle still strong and intact. Tolex is in great shape with only a couple of small missing spots. Grill cloth is perfect.
I believe I am the second owner of this little amplifier after aquiring it 15 years ago. It was recently gone through by a great local tech and capacitors replaced as is normal for an amp this age.
Less than 5 watts. No hums or buzzing.
It's only issue is the Jensen Special Design 8" speaker would need to be reconed, which would run about $60. There is a tear in the speaker from the power corded being stored in the back. The amp works perfectly otherwise, and looks great!
Here's a link with a bit of history - I gleaned that this is a 1961, but the speaker frame serial number indicates 1959.

- 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 M10 Suitcase Amp In Detroit Area For $300
Thisis a good price on a working Magnatone M10 suitcase amp. He says the Reverb hums bad - keep in mind there are no "cheap and easy fixes" when it comes to these old maggies. That said it is a ncie two channel tube amp with the True Vibrato for $300...
- 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 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:...
- Magnatone M10a In Fountain Valley Ca For $400
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.
