1954 Gibson GA-6 Lancer Combo Tube Guitar Amplifier - Used

This Gibson GA-6, dating back to 1954, is from the inaugural year of production for this amplifier model. It is the initial version of the GA-6, characterized by its dark brown tolex and a Gold Gibson Logo. Over the course of its existence, the amp underwent some alterations, notably the removal of its logo.

The tolex shows some signs of age, displaying scratches, dings, and tears across the cab. The grill cloth has aged into a pleasing golden brown hue, exhibiting no tears but displaying some discoloration. Notably, the amplifier's original speaker was exchanged for a 12" Alessandro GA-SC64, and a 3-prong, grounded cord has been incorporated. While the electrolytic caps underwent replacement years ago, the amplifier proudly retains its original transformers, choke, and Yellow Astron filter capacitors.
