Lovepedal 1/2 Watt Vintage amp - $90 shipped


Up for sale is a used but in mint condition Lovepedal 1/2 Watt Vintage Amplifier. It is in mint cosmetic condition aside from one or two tiny little nicks that are almost impossible to see; the amp functions perfectly and sounds great.

For those that are not aware of these amps, they are hand made half watt amplifiers that crank out sweet tube-like overdrive tones at ridiculously low volumes; these work miracles for apartment dwellers. Don't be fooled by the small size; these things sound incredible. Just plug into any guitar cabinet and rock out to the sweet vintage overdrive tones that you hear in all of those old classic rock recordings. Best of all, the amp runs on (2) 9-volt batteries; it can go anywhere you feel like lugging a cab. The amp has a very low current draw and will last months on the same 2 batteries. What do 9-volts cost--$1 for a pair?


Here is what Lovepedal has to say:
"The Vintage 1/2 watt guitar amplifier offers chimey clean tones, dirty tweed, VOX at the top, all sorts of killer small vintage amp tones at about half the volume usually associated with the RIGHT sound and feel of a good small vintage amp.. Runs off TWO 9 volt batteries.. Very low current draw.. Plugs straight into ANY guitar Cab..."


Anyway, I'd like to get $90 shipped for it via Paypal or USPS Money Order. I am also open to trades. Let me know what you've got. However, I'd MUCH prefer cash. I'd just be selling whatever I got in a trade. The amp will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail. Email/PM with offers or for more info!

UPDATE: I do not see these on the Lovepedal site anymore, which leads me to believe that he is either out of stock or has discontinued them. So this may be one of your few chances to buy one of these. Buy it now before I get the good sense to jack my price up for when the demand starts to rise...

How does it sound? I remember seeing thses on the website but cant be sure they had sound clips... I would assume it doesnt have much clean headroom but how is the gain? Better than a Smokey amp I would assume...

Let me know, thinking it could be a cool practice set-up :smokin:

I've never played a Smokey, so I really can't compare. I'm sure it sounds better.

As far as clean headroom, there really isn't any. If you roll back the volume on your guitar, you can get a clean tone, but it might be a bit muddy (depending on the guitar). It has a very nice overdrive tone. How the amp sounds really depends on the speaker and cab you use with it. Here is a clip made by some dude on another forum. If the clip doesn't work, follow the link after it; there is the real link to it half way through that thread.
