Description
A vintage mid-1960s Flotatone Model 600AT tube combo amp in player-grade condition. These lesser-known tube amps were manufactured in Milwaukee, Wisconsin from the late 1940s to mid 1960s. Once thought to be bargain bin amps, these hand-wired gems are rapidly gaining popularity and value due to their fantastic build quality and tweed-esque tone. At some point in time the amp was re-covered and the grill cloth and speaker were replaced. The amp features a big clean tone that transitions into a thick, tweed-y overdrive as you turn up the volume. In addition it has a great-sounding tube-driven tremlo. This amp has been cleaned and serviced. It is fully functional and sounds fantastic.
