{"product_id":"43624","title":"NOS Rex AG6T Mascot 6 Watt 1x12\" Valve Guitar Amplifier","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rex AG6T is a rare Australian-made 6-watt valve guitar amplifier with a fascinating connection to Melbourne's amplifier-building history. Originally produced in the early 1960s by General Music, the manufacturing arm of Lamberti Bros, the AG6T was a compact single-ended valve amplifier with built-in tremolo and a distinctive character of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 2019 reissue was built by Lou Dallariva, who worked in the Lamberti Bros amplifier workshop during the early 1970s. Following the closure of Lamberti Bros in 2018, Dallariva acquired the company's remaining amplifier stock and components, allowing him to recreate the AG6T using a combination of original period parts and carefully selected new components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction combines an original gold faceplate and period-correct 1960s red Nylex vinyl with new resistors and capacitors, Australian-made Voller transformers, antique gold-coloured speaker cloth and a Jensen Special Design C10Q 10-inch speaker. The valve circuit uses an EL84 power valve alongside 12AX7 and 6AV4 valves, producing approximately 6 watts through a simple single-ended output stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low-powered design delivers the immediacy, compression and natural overdrive associated with small vintage valve amplifiers, while the onboard tremolo adds classic pulsing modulation. With enough output for recording and lower-volume playing while being easy to push into power-stage saturation, the AG6T is a particularly characterful piece of Australian amplifier design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly two examples of this 2019 reissue were reportedly built by Lou Dallariva, making it an exceptionally unusual continuation of an obscure Australian amplifier from the early 1960s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 Watts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Stage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-Ended Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Valve:\u003c\/strong\u003e EL84\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreamp \/ Circuit Valves:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12AX7, 6AV4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jensen Special Design C10Q 10\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEffect:\u003c\/strong\u003e Valve Tremolo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTransformers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australian-Made Voller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFaceplate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original Gold Rex Faceplate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCovering:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1960s-Era Red Nylex Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrille Cloth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Antique Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Manufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e General Music \/ Lamberti Bros\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReissue Builder:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lou Dallariva\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"itemspec\"\u003eProduct Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eItem Number:\u003c\/b\u003e 43624\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMake:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=vendor%3ARex+AND+tag%3Avisible\"\u003eRex\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=AG6T+Mascot+AND+tag%3Avisible\"\u003eAG6T Mascot\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCondition:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/gear-condition-key\" class=\"fs-product-condition fs-product-condition-mint\"\u003eMint\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFinish:\u003c\/b\u003e Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCategories:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=tag%3Aamps+AND+tag%3Avisible\"\u003eamps\u003c\/a\u003e ⇒ \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=tag%3Aguitar-combos+AND+tag%3Avisible\"\u003eguitar-combos\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eYear:\u003c\/b\u003e 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMade In:\u003c\/b\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMPN:\u003c\/b\u003e 43624\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48212070826220,"sku":"43624","price":1499.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2604\/0858\/files\/IMG_3751.heic?v=1787371803","url":"https:\/\/foundsound.com.au\/products\/43624","provider":"Found Sound","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
