Ga-5 with 4 inputs

[YoginJ]

I bought a ga-5 on auction site.

I knew it was a nice find well worth the 527 i spent, girlfriend was like what?! Lol

But it has 4 inputs, not a Skylark or Les Paul, just says Gibson, Kalamazoo MI.

I cannot find one like it anywhere and i even found a site that has listings of how many of each model were made each year etc

It appears to be an early GA-5 without the "Skylark" designation that has 2 inputs added by a modifier. I can't think of why you would need 2 more inputs for a 5 watt amp...The cabinet is the earlier variant with larger edges at the top and bottom of the face. These amps are great! Congrats!

I agree to the added inputs, the early GA-5 (Les Paul Junior),  had a square cutout in the rear. This one is  a  GA-5 version 1, 1958-1962, and had 2 boards on the rear.

Nice one!  Does it work OK?

Yes it works great and seems to be original
