lowery tube organ amp/tubes/woofers
« on: August 27, 2017, 12:18:04 PM »
Huge awkward unit (almost 60 tubes) worked when pulled, huge transformer. 12 6fa7 and 36 6x8 tubes included, i pulled 6 12ax7, 2 7591 and the rectifier (not included).  $20

If nobody wants the amp, i will pull all the tubes (6fa7 and 6x8) for free to anyone who may want them

Two 12" woofers 1961 quam-nichols p6714 alnico 16 ohm. $25/pair

I think I saw a Lowery organ at an estate sale yesterday.   Looked to be solid state but I should have examined it a little more carefully.

I paid up for this one and the beautiful mid century wood cabinet is sitting in my trash right now.  Got lucky and unlucky.  Got a pair of telefunken 12ax7 and westinghouse 7591 output tubes, that's a score.  Also got 4 more rca 12ax7a tubes, not worth much, but nice having them laying around.  The woofers bring $50 or so on ebay.  The unlucky, i was hoping the amp was a self contained unit, it is not, it is a monstrosity. 18" x 50", point to point wired for 60 tubes, it truly is an industrial work of art (i will get pictures).  So, no "project amp" without a lot of custom work. Bet it would sound good, 12ax7 and 7591 output tubes with a 12 lbs transformer (it's big).
