This clean vintage 1960 Gibson GA-20T Ranger guitar amp with tweed covering came through the shop last year. I'm always a vintage Gibson guitar amp buyer but I especially love the GA-20 amplifiers. Please contact me here to sell a vintage Gibson.
"Gibson GA-20T Ranger with built in Tremolo - Clear, clean tones with solid, undistorted response plus a wonderful built in tremolo - that's GA-20T, a favorite of professionals and students. Can easily handle three instruments and microphone...." -- 1960 Gibson catalog - side note: whoever wrote this clearly never played a GA-20T. It's mostly thick, fat, crunchy tone with little clean headroom.
Make and Model: Gibson GA-20T Ranger
