Wow! Supro 1616T tube amp in Chicago area for $200 - just listed!


These little 1616T's are super rare and hard to find - they are very much in demand.  The 6x9 alnico is a perfect match for the single 6V6 power tube - this amp should sound great at full tilt in the studio - once you clean up whatever is causing the crackle and static. 

This sounds like it hasbeen in the owners family for 50 years.  And you gotta love the name of the town - Homer Glen - what a cool little find.

I have a Supro vintage tube amp model 1616T (Valco-Chicago 51) for sale. I believe it was built in '59 or '60. It's all original except that the plug was changed into a 3-prong. The output power is around 10 watts max. There are 2 input channels and a tremolo function. The tremolo still works great. The amp plays well but there is some static/crackle at higher volumes. It has a single 6" x 9" speaker. It has been in my possesion since the mid-60's and belonged to a cousin before that. Pictures attached. Cash only please and you pick up. If you're interested or would like further info please contact me. Located in Homer Glen not far from 143rd and Bell.
