Cult favourite Sears combo from the mid 60s, built by Danelectro and loved for its ragged charm. Pushing around 15 watts through a 12" speaker, it has a fizzy drive with a swampy characterful tremolo. Sometimes dubbed the "poor man’s Deluxe", it excels at early breakup, dark edge tones and smoky blues textures making it a studio secret for lo-fi grit. Jack White and Brittany Howard have been known to lean on Silvertone amps for that vintage bark.
