1959 Silvertone Model 1432 10-Watt 1x12 Guitar Combo
1974 Silvertone XL40 Model 1422 40W 1X12 Combo Amp
An amp looks older than 70s, but is all tube. Speaker and grill cloth rotted out and were replaced. Power cord was also replaced. 2 channels, Tremolo and Reverb. Great overdriven sound. Oxford ALNICO 12".
The 1422, or 40XL, was marketed by Sears as a 40-watt, 12-inch, combo tube amp for guitar. It features two separate input channels, and built-in reverb and tremolo. The reverb and trem are controlled by a dedicated foot switch. Sears advertised these as 40-watt combo amps. But in reality, the two 7189 power tubes put out around 20-watts or less. In fact, the features and chassis layout suggest that it could be an American copy of a the mid-60’s Marshall Model 1974, which was an 18-watt combo using two 6BQ5’s (EL84’s).
