1960's Farfisa 8 Vintage Guitar Valve Amplifier / Made in Italy

  

1960's FARFISA 8W VALVE AMP. 1 x EL 84 power tube, 2 ECC83 preamp tubes and 1 EZ81 rectifier tube. Amp is in very good condition - two Alnico 6,5 inch speakers. This is the perfect recording amp for vintage saturated or crunchy sounds. It has a beautiful vibrato that can be switched on and off via pedal (not included).

Overall it's more on the dark side of sound (think 5E3) but with a simple mod you can turn the sparkle on. I can provide a full schematic for the amp.

As it is it's a fantastic little all tube amp with tons of character and a type of tube saturation that is rarely found these days dare i say brown sound? Needless to say it's point-to-point wired and has what I believe to be the original tubes in it. This item is in the category "Musical Instruments & DJ Equipment\Guitars & Basses\Guitar Amplifiers".
