Check these out guys
A buddy found a late 50's GA-5 Skylark in a house clean out in Gary Indiana
The tubes were original Gibson Raytheon and all tested like new

Great find! Holy black plate Raytheon 12AX7. I can see the 5Y3GT. What is the output tube? Doesn't quite look like the Raytheon mil spec 6V6GT. Is it a 6K6GT?


Sorry, for the delayed response. Been out of town & away form Wi-Fi's. :mrgreen:

Chris,

That is an RCA made 6V6GTA. Relabeled "Gibson." May, 1952 manufacturer date.
