Rickenbacker M-9 Amplifier
Hi, I'm currently in possesion of a Rickenbacker M-9 Amplifier, I would like to how much it costs, how much you've seen it sell for, or how much you would buy it for. All for educational purposes of unraveling the mysteries of this "unknown" amplifier. By the way this amp has TONE!
Re: Rickenbacker M-9 Amplifier
You are only interested in the $$$ behind this amp? What else do you already know about it? Where is your store located?

Re: Rickenbacker M-9 Amplifier
I'm helping an old friend sell it (he runs a store in Santa Rosa, CA) and we been on an adventure trying to find the origins of the amp and another 50's Rickenbacker guitar he has (1957 Rickenbacker combo 400) I just want to get either a general idea of what some people have bought/sold/or seen it bought for or what they would pay for an amp of this rarity (theres not many of the amps and their quite rare so I've heard). Just want to see what the community opions on it.

David: When you get a moment please describe the tone. Better yet, provide a link to some brief recordings.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Re: Rickenbacker M-9 Amplifier
Later today or tommorow I'll post audio along with pictures. For now I'll describe the tone. It has a nice balanced EQ, and it can get nice and bassy (it has a 15" Jensen Concert Speaker, Original). It starts to break up at 12 yet if you strum lightly it will sound perfectly clean. Which humbuckers at 3 its got nice overdrive.
It has a master tone knob which also controls how your turn on the amp, you turn the knob to the right, the amp turns on and from there if you turn it to the right it dullens the tone or if you keep it all the way to the left without turning the amp off, you get the full open tone. (you have to turn the knob hard to the left to turn it off).
If you don't already know from the registery, it has one tone knob, 2 volume (these are for the four inputs) and four inputs. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Re: Rickenbacker M-9 Amplifier
Sorry I haven't been able to post any audio, I've been very busy lately. Also always if anyone has any information on this amp if they could please post it. Also I will see if I can get some audio of the amp up later on this week.
