Not for sale.
I am just wondering what an old tube amp like this might be worth these days.
I see old Supros going off the hook.
Any ideas ?? |

Did Jimmy Page, et al, happen to use one in the studio 
I think the story of Jimmy page using a Supro in the studio for some early Led Zep is what has driven up the market for the Supros. Find a celebrity connection, and the amp's value will go wayyyyyyy up!  |

Serviced maybe $300-400. Not serviced $200-300 or less depending on physical condition. They are usually at the lower end unless matched with an Oahu guitar - then you kick it to the higher end.
Like Cliff said - I've had great Gretsch tweeds, Magnatones, other Estey's, old Danos...some would blow a good Supro off the map tonewise, but unless you see a picture of Page or Clapton with one tone is irrelevant when it comes to price.
