1962 Gibson GA-19 Falcon

Serial # 131377, Speaker dates to 12th week of '62; pots all date to 44th and 47th week of '61. The tweed GA-19 Falcon has long been thought of as THE vintage Gibson gigging amp. This 6V6 amp is rated at about 19 watts, and has a creamy early breakup that sounds great with vintage-output pickups at volume levels that you can use. The amp has had some recent servicing that included reconing the original Jensen C12R speaker, and replacing the output transformer. The filter-caps have been replaced, and the power tubes are a match pair of Tung-Sols. The amp has a deep reverb and juicy tremolo which offers some fabulous sonic possibilities. Original tweed and grill, upper back panel is a replacement.
