My uncle's $5 rig (Supro and Stratotone content)

[cg]

My uncle mmakes it a habit to hit garage sales looking for interesting items. He found this Supro amp last week for $5! I believe he found the Stratotone in a dumpster!

Very cool! It's an early '50s 1610 Comet.

That cabinet design looks somehow familiar...

WOW! Nice score! That looks like a pretty clean H44 from the pics....big bucks! I sold a pristine one for a FORTUNE last year!

and that H44 will fetch upwards of $1500 if it's all original and in decent shape

In the information age I am still amazed that these finds are still out there. Not amazing to me is that I do not find them haha

That's a beauty of a Supro. Grats!

Smoken good deal. Those little Supro amps are my fav over even old Fenders.
