Description

Up for sale here is this super-rare mini vintage Stromberg-Carlson CSA-2 tube amplifier. This is one of the smallest tube amps I have ever seen, and it is surprisingly heavy! This normally uses two EL84/6BQ5 output tubes and two 12AX7s, but the tubes are not included, sorry. This is in good physical condition with light to moderate overall wear, except that the "Stromberg-Carlson" front plate has some wear and is bent, though you could probably straighten it out. This is a neat little integrated amp--I believe it's a push-pull mono amp. I think this was an add-on to go from mono to stereo, so I think it normally partners with another amp. This has controls and the original knobs, which are in great shape. You could make this into a sweet little guitar amp or whatever you want. The entire amp measures about 9.75" long (including the mounting ears), 4" tall, and 3" deep. A previous owner updated this with some new caps, but I have not tested it, so it may require further updates. Because it is 60-year-old tube gear, it is sold as non-working, for rebuilding. I will guarantee the transformers to be good. This is a really rare amp--don't miss it! Please see my pictures for details. US shipping and handling is $15, and international is $100. If you have any questions, please ask. I have more amplifiers and other vintage electronics listed--feel free to take a look!
