Silvertone 50 watt head

Post by Junk »

this is what I'm talking about here

Should I buy it? The picture is not of the actual amp, just found it online.
It's $300 at a pawn close to me, the guy says it could use new tubes but it sounds fine as it is. Currently I play my guitar through a P.A. or a solid state Randall stack so I think this would be a good upgrade.

It's probably a pretty decent amp but the price seems a little high.
If it ends up needing tubes and caps you'll be out at least couple hundred more.

Why'd we be mad at yo' Junk?

It's your money, you could do whatever you want with it.

Dude, you should probably buy that Fender then. Don't poop on it though. Don't listen to Sonidero. He's from Austin. We don't trust them.
