Up forSale is aVintage 1950\'s Premier 88 Multivox Amplifier!
Original 15\" Jensen Speaker! Made In USA!
This is really Cool. You are looking at a Vintage 1950\'s Premier 88 Multivox Amplifier. The Premier 88 is a rare and highly unusual instrument amplifier from the 1950s. It consists of an amplifier unit and a speaker unit; but rather than the amplifier unit sitting atop the speaker, like most every other 2-piece amp, the 88’s amplifier sits beside the speaker cabinet. The two sections clasp together with luggage latches. It moves as one (very large and heavy) piece.
This odd side-by-side form-factor is not the only unique feature of the 88. Check out the control panel. Rather than conventional bass/middle/treble knobs, the ‘instrument’ channel of the 88 has 5 organ-stop-type levers that can be switched in or out. Each lever is a bandpass filter. IE., if you depress all 5 levers, you get the full tonal spectrum. If you depress none of the levers, you get silence. The ‘Microphone’ channel also has a pair of unusual tone control switches; they seem to be hi-cut filters.
This thing is absolutely incredible. There is an abundance of amazing tones that come outta this gal , and the tremolo is outta this world. Link Wray recorded\"Rumble\" with a Premier 88.
Ry Cooder uses one of these exclusively onstage with his line up and he gets some wicked tone going....THESE DO NOT DISAPPOINT!!
What an incredible amp design concept from the golden age of craftsmanship. The side-by-side form-factor is unique but not the only unique feature of the 88. Check out the control panel.
