The 1950s was a golden era in America in cars, music, and of course, Silvertone amplifiers and instruments. The (mostly) Danelectro-made amplifiers of the years 1950-1960 are now highly sought after for their unique tone, their funky style and their supreme coolness. Will ya look at that crowd to the left? More than 20 separate amp designs!

Maybe 'back then'  they were popular because you could obtain them inexpensively just so you could prove that you deserved a Fender, Gibson, Gretsch or other 'better' amp; nowadays they are sought after for their intelligent, economical engineering, classic styling, and a sound that only hot tubes can generate.
