Used And Vintage Amps

 We just scored a legendary amp that's hard to find, especially in "like new" condition like this one.   It's the Fender EC Twinolux - a Custom Shop tube amp featuring a circuit based on the late '50s Twin 5E8-A model. This is a 40 watt 2x12 combo with Eminence speakers designed by Weber and an eight-tube chassis.  The EC series debuted to much fanfare in 2012, and was only built for 4 years.  The Twinlolux was the star of the show.  It's been in high demand ever since, and here's an opportunity to get one that looks like it was never used.  

  In a historic collaboration, Fender's EC Series amps feature the name and design preferences of the great Eric Clapton.  A 40-watt must-have for guitarists who want the ultimate in Clapton amp style and performance, the EC Twinolux is a fascinating variation on the tweed '57 Twin amp and the answer to Clapton's call for a special model with several distinctive features.  

 Handmade and handwired in the United States with '50s-era output tube bias tremolo (which produced a more throbbing pulse than later Fender tremolo circuits) and a switchable power attenuator (reduces speaker output and can disable one speaker for even lower output), it presents the pinnacle of Clapton-inspired amp tone for stage and studio alike.  

  This amp is in excellent condition, and even still has the original placard on it.  It also comes with the cover and footswitch.  We've vetted and tested it to perfect working order.  It's a rare bird, especially like this - we expect it to go fast.
