- About a year ago, I bought a used amp and electric guitar from a
- friend (who knows nothing about either).
-
- I'm curious to know how much they are worth and any historical and
- statistical background on them (they are both pretty old- about 20-30 years-
- I think). Also, being a beginner, still:(, I was wondering if my equipment
- was considered top of the line or bottom of the barrel.
-
- The amp is a vacuum tube amp which contains 6 vacuum tubes. It looks
- pretty old. It stands about 2 feet up and 3 feet wide and is made by
- "Wurld Musical Instruments"- the spelling is correct. I can't find a date
- anywhere on it. And also, if anyone can give any information on where I
- could find tubes on this, I would be grateful.
-
- The guitar is also an older model with two pickups and two dials
- (one for volume and one for tone). There is a metal sticker on the head
- which reads "Prestige" which is the name of the guitar. Once again, I can
- find no clue about how old it is.
-
- If anyone could help give information on either, I would be very
- grateful. If you need more information on either, just e-mail me and
- I'll do my best.
-
- Post responses to this group or e-mail me.
-
- Thanks in advance :)
