They have continued to make history by releasing innovative products not only for guitars and basses, but also for amplifiers and other equipment. In 1955, the large-bodied Tremolux amplifier and in 1956, the small-bodied Vibrolux amplifier were released at almost the same time. Each is a combo amplifier with one speaker, and is a historic model that was the first to feature tremolo, which is now a common effect function. In addition to its fat, compact, and clear sound, the unique fluctuation makes it a great match for surf, blues, psych, rock and roll, and rockabilly. What we would like to introduce to you this time is an extremely rare Vibrolux from the first year of production, which will be released to collectors. Not only is the original vintage look, which is extremely cool and impressive with its tweed covering, wonderful, but it also has a practical specification that outputs a maximum volume and excellent sound pressure that is more than enough for small-scale live performances and recordings. And the moment you stroke a note, you will be captivated by the "real inata" of the outstanding sound. First of all, the specs of this model are the brown grille, the narrow panel cabinet made of pine wood, and the tweed cover that was used from the first year of production in 1956 to around 1961 (later it was changed from brown tolex to black tolex). The controls are 3 inputs and a simple 4 knobs, with master volume, master tone, tremolo depth and speed. The 10-inch speaker is a replacement Eminence Blue Alnico Speaker. The tube layout is 5Y3, 6V6GT x 2, 12AX7 x 2. The sound is excellent, and it has been well-maintained and is ready to be used immediately. Although it is small, it has a large diameter speaker compared to the Champ, and the bass is wide and sufficient, and the high range is not too crisp and has a glossy finish, and it responds sensitively to the guitar volume control, producing a crunch to clean tone. Not only is it well-known as a single coil guitar for Fender guitars, but the sound pressure and firmness of the humbucker combine to produce a sweet tone. As for its condition, it has been 68 years since its release, and has been sublimated into a spectacular look, but overall it is in very good condition. There is aging on the front surface, fraying of the tweed, and wobbling of the speaker terminals, but there are no problems with the playability. The speaker, grill, and some of the capacitors have been replaced due to a general overhaul. The tremolo ON/OFF foot switch is not included, but we have confirmed that the terminals work. It is natural that a similarly good condition model would cost over 800,000 to 900,000 yen in market price, but this one has a truly amazing sound, so we would like players to use it, and we would like to introduce it to you. Of course, it is incomparable to recent models, and it is an original vintage Vibrox from the first year. It is a lightweight combo type that is easy to carry and is a great instrument for home or studio, so please do not miss this opportunity. ★☆Amuse Guitar☆★ We handle a wide range of products, from vintage guitars to current models, as well as rare items such as Japanese vintage, one-off show models, maniacal artist models, and peripherals such as amplifiers and effects. ~We research the global market and strive to buy at the highest price and sell at the lowest price in the used market! !~ Amuse Guitar's motto is to buy at the highest price and sell at the lowest price in the world.
