1960's SILVERTONE 1448 Amp in case



Vintage Original 1960s Silvertone 1448 Amp in Case Electric Guitar Plays Great

I am selling 1962 Silvertone Amp in Case model 1448. I have attached some pictures. They were made by Danelectro and sold by Sears.

I am open to offers and trades. I would like to sell this guitar today.

Here's the original description from the 1964 Sears catalog:

Electric Guitar OutfitDescription from VintageSilvertones.com
Single-pickup Guitar with 5-in. speaker, amplifier built into carrying case..plus beginner's record.
The Guitar..fine quality, fine sound from solid-center-body electric guitar. About 34x13x2 inches. In glistening black finish with silver-color accents. 18-fret fingerboard of Brazilian rosewood. Separate tone and volume control on body.Description from VintageSilvertones.com
Case and Amplifier..styled in simulated-leather-covered hardboard with accents to match guitar. 2 tubes plus rectifier for rich reproduction. about 37x15x3 in. With chord charts and pick.


My guitar and case are 100% original and in working condition. The vacuum tubes are even still original. I do not have the beginner's record mentioned in the original Sears ad.

The pick ups for these guitars were made from surplus WWII lipstick cases. Unfortunately, mine is split a little on one side.

The guitar was given to me by my mother. She bought the guitar in Detroit 26 years ago. 


$500

  1. Hi

    Cool!! Willing to sell it on monthly payments? I am on a small, but solid, pension but cant pay all at once. I has a Harmony Stratotone years ago and I like the semi acoustic sound. Let me know if you are intested.
