Sorry it's gone. We may have another in stock or on the way. Please enquire below (or check our weekly Gear Update for incoming rarities).
Excellent example of a nice little amp: a Magnatone 111 Student amp, dating from 1955-59.This amp is in amazing cosmetic condition and works very well. It really doesn't look its age at all.
It has been fitted with an isolating mains transformer and three-core earthed mains cable for safe operation at 240v: this is reversible, but these vintage amps are potentially lethal in original form. The original design was flawed and output was very low - even for an amp rated at 2-3w - so a couple of minor modifications have been made (reversible) which make it much more useful. There's a pull-switch on the volume control which is an extra gain option for better break-up.
This is an exceptional example of a 50s Magnatone that's been modified to be of real practical use and it makes a lovely amp for practice or recording.

"Excellent equipment, wonderful service. I fully recommend Soundgas to anyone in the vintage gear market and I will definitely be a return customer. The gear itself was exactly as advertised and in great condition."

“I’ve bought a number of items from Soundgas recently, and have been really impressed with their service. It takes the stress out of buying vintage gear to know it’s been properly (and faithfully) serviced or restored. Their after-sales service has also been exemplary. Highly recommended.”
TOM JOHNSTON
Fantastic. From initial contact to the product landing at my door the service provided was outstanding. Safe and secure shipping, quality serviced product.

"Finally, a company that tracks down all those brilliant curiosities that bring so much character and personality to a studio."

“Imagine the perfect eBay.... with everything you never knew you wanted… and you can rest assured that your vintage and rare wobbly sound device will turn up on time and in one piece and possibly in even better condition that when it left the workshop. Soundgas - literally amazing."
