This near 40 year old Traynor YBA-4 is the famous awesome sounding All tube combo amp its tone is much like the vintage Marshall Plexi and the old 50's Fender Bassman amps. This Traynor is all TUBE and all point to point hand wired old school construction that truly is built like a tank and as a result is 100% ready for tonal warfair yo may be facing. This unit is all original and it is in TOP operating condition a true classic vintage tube amp 15" speaker combo ith another 40 years at least left on her. BIG TONE here folks reminds me of the big sound you get from the Old 64 Fender Vibroverb ( I have one of those in stock ) in your face 15" combo Cosmetics are pretty darn good too she's still a good looking amp today ... Brief Traynor History: Founded in 1963 in downtown Toronto, Yorkville Sound was formed out of the back room of the first Long & McQuade music store. The repairman at that time was Peter Traynor, and his first development was a Bass Guitar amplifier, the Traynor Dyna-Bass. From there the Traynor line of Bass Amps have had a very successful and dynamic growth, attracting attention not only in Canada, but the USA and worldwide. It should also be mentioned that many guitarists back in those days ( and still today ) were and are plugging into Bass Amps to atain their TONE. as there was a fine blurry line between whats strictly a bass amp, and what makes a great guitar amp YBA-4 amp: Features Dual pairs of inputs, dual volume controls, bass, treble, high and low (mid) range expanders, also GREAT for guitar - tubes are 2 6CA7 outputs and three 12AX7A's in the preamp (early models had 7027A o/ps and a 5AR4 rectifier). Years Made 1973-1979 Approximate Serial Number 310#### to 911#### Amp Type Tube combo (1x15") Power 45 Watts Sine Wave @ 8 Ohms 80 Watts by what Traynor calls CLIPPING this is simply bridging the bass & guitar channels together by a dual plug wire and you plug in and then you have al the controlls available on both channels cleaverly allowing the player to adjust bass - treble & volumes to your personal taste... this is an awesome feature and will allow you to get great gain & sustain to atain amazing plexi tones... Much Like the old 50's Fender Bassman & the 60's Marshal Plexi this Trayner can get you where you need to go tone wise... so its 45 watts RMS pre clipping is dead on to the 50's Bassman & the Marshall 45 Plexi.. then you clip and WoW tone becomes alive... I have a late 50's Bassman as well as a Marshall 45 Plexi and this amp stands toe to toe with either of them and this tRAYNOR is a raw boned powerhouse of TONE. This is one of the all time greatest amps for Old School Rock & Roll and is an awesome Blues amp even at 45 watts its very loud... play a large venue and clip it & your in business. Weight is 75 lbs
