Today, I took apart the guitar amplifier I bought last month. It's a 1951 Silvertone, model 1342, that I honestly believe belongs in a museum. So, because I am who I am, I took it apart!
The neat thing is that there is no schematic of this amp online, no real information on it other than anecdotal stuff by old-timers and collectors. For the most part, it has fallen through the cracks in history and into my hands via a very fun, very interesting older gentleman by the name of Dash who lives in the east village, still bikes around at the spry age of 60-something, and invited me to jam with him whenever I get a chance. Cool cat, for sure, and yet another awesome Craigslist experience.
