  Okay folks ...

My loss is your gain? I have, due to pressing financial circumstances,
been obliged to offer my "baby" up for sale to a new home! I have a 1956
Oahu Tonemaster for sale. Blonde, with a cool purple window light. All
tube, (2) 6v6 ... (1) 12ax7 preamp tube ... (1) 6sn7 inverter ... 1(5y3)
rectifier
It puts out about 12-13 watts. It has two channels, that are BRIDGEABLE for
phat sound. Channel one is labeled "Instrument" and has two inputs ... one
of which can be used to send a small cord to the "Mic" input, as a bridge.
Each channel has separate volume controls, with a master "Tone" control. It
has had caps replaced, about eight years ago. At that time, there was a pot
installed to increase the plate voltage to the power tubes, to varying
degrees, for more overdrive, if desired. It has a replacement Eminence
alnico speaker. This amp KICKS ASS
for harp or guitar. Comes with extra tubes and a homemade harp mic. The
back is removed, but included. It can be put in with friction.
Cosmetically, it's a bit rough ... but looks WAY COOL!
Before you buy a "new" boutique/Chinese amp ... step up and see what
these amps are ALL based on! This amp will come DIALED for harp ... with
extra tubes! I'm asking $750, plus shipping and insurance. This amp has
low hours, I've pampered it for fifteen years and I really HATE to let it
go, but c'est la vie! I paid $450 for it at that time and have put
easily $250 in parts and service into it. Only a harp player (or a savvy
lap-steel player) can truly appreciate this puppy. I figured I would offer
it for sale here before putting it on e-bay.

Sorry no pics or sound-clips! It's in a safe pawn shop, off the floor. you
know what they say ... a piece of gear can't REALLY play the blues unless
it's been in a pawn shop!

Let me know ... Craig
