ngd nad..... Silvertone/Supro content

Post by h8mtv »

Bought an amp and a res-o-glass guitar Friday. :D Amp sounds awesome. The guitar needs some new buttons on the tuners, hopefully they will be in from Stew Mac today.

nice find/score

i love the look of that amp, and also of the guitar, such a tiny body, but so cool.

Is the amp a Silvertone as well?

Yeah it is. They were purchased together in 1957. It has the original strap, a few sets of strings, really old picks, and a few other odds n ends. The fella bought it from said he hadn't had it out of the closet in 30+ years. He told me he bought them with his first paycheck after graduating school.

I love those resoglass guitars. I may put one together at some point.

That's great to find a matching guitar set like that. Demo please.

edit: The last pic of the amp didn't come up at work so I couldn't see the Silvertone Logo.

Got the new tuners installed, thought I had some strings. I was wrong. Fuck balls.
