We see a lot of these appropriately named Goldentone amplifiers, built right here in Australia in the 1960’s. When running properly, these things sound absolutely stunning! With old tubes that were at home in TV’s and not seen in any other brands, these have a unique yet very musical tone. Not the cleanest of amplifiers, but certainly some of the sweetest! We see these in all sorts of states – at times modified detrimentally – and we know how to get them singing again. Some will need minor servicing and some new tubes, and others will need all the old electrolytic capacitors replaced to get the power supply operating as it should. We do this work and everything in between. Many current Melbourne acts are using these amps on stage and on record to great effect – you have probably heard these things at least once in your life!
