CalebMac Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 In The Wilco Book on the page between the antique radio and the start of "The Sound" section, there is a photo of what appears to be some sort of guitar amp. The name of the manufacture is on the top right hand corner but half of it is cut off, i can make out, "es_e_ Electronics Inc. Torrance California." Does any one have any clue as to what this is?

Elixir Sue Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 It says "By Estey Electronics Inc. Torrance, California." After doing a quick search online, I think it's a Magnatone...check out this site: http://www.vibroworld.com/magnatone/415.html Edit: Oh yeah, just flip to the next page...the caption says "Preceding page, Magnatone amplifier."

ShaneShaneShane Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 there's also a silvertone 1481 in the section where it shows pictures of them recording AGIB.and i'm pretty sure the Supro amp jeff used is the Supro Super 108, which was (if i remember correctly) also the amp of choice for Jimmy Page for a little while.

I own the silvertone and maganatone. Magnatone's are known for there vibrato and concert hall reverb. The good ones are starting to get pricey.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
