Built in the early 1960s and still oozing vintage character, this Magnatone M10 is a rare find. With its original Jensen 8" speaker and smaller 3" companion driver, this amp captures the warmth and detail that vintage lovers crave. Unlike the M10A models that came later, this is the early-production M10, likely from 1962–63, with the serial number 2102 helping to date it.
Recently serviced with a fresh capacitor job, the amp is quiet, responsive, and full of life. Its pitch-shifting true vibrato circuit — a signature of Magnatone's magic — delivers that watery, warbling tone that modern effects still struggle to match. Whether you're into vintage surf, swampy blues, or lo-fi indie tones, this amp delivers a wide palette at manageable volumes. Ideal for studio use or small venue gigs.
