John Lennon purchased this amp in 1962 and it was the first-ever Vox amp he used as part of The Fab Four. It is arguably one of the most notable Beatles and Lennon artifacts to come to market. It was the catalyst in forming the early tone and sound of one of The Beatles, considered one of the most influential bands of all time.
