Used Traynor YSR-1 CUSTOM REVERB HEAD Tube Guitar Amp No Size

Used Traynor YSR-1 Custom Reverb Tube Amp Head

Estimated Year: Early 1970s

Made in: Canada

This vintage Traynor YSR-1 Custom Reverb head is a serious sleeper in the world of classic tube amps—delivering massive clean headroom, rich tube warmth, and vintage character that rivals amps costing far more. Built in Canada by Yorkville Sound, these amps are known for their rugged construction and incredible value, often compared to vintage Fender and Marshall designs of the era.

Loaded with all-tube circuitry and pushing approximately 45–50 watts, the YSR-1 delivers bold, punchy cleans that stay tight at higher volumes, along with smooth natural breakup when pushed. The built-in spring reverb is deep and lush, while the onboard tremolo adds vintage movement and texture.

With dual channels and four inputs, this amp allows for classic channel jumping techniques to dial in everything from warm cleans to gritty vintage overdrive. Whether you're chasing classic rock tones, blues, or using it as a pedal platform, this head delivers in a big way.
