Description

A vintage 1959 Ampeg R-12 Rocket combo amp in player-grade condition. While all major components are original, the amp appears to have received smoke damage at some point in time. That aside, the amp has been thoroughly cleaned and electrically restored. A great little mid-sized vintage combo for a player looking for a bargain. This amp has been cleaned and serviced. It is fully functional and sounds great.
