A beautifully crafted combo amplifier from the early years of Gibson's lap steel and electric guitar production, the 1946 Gibson BR-6 is a compact, low-wattage tube combo built for portability and clear early electric tone. Housed in a single 1x10" cabinet with a distinctive three-grille front panel, this amp delivers approximately 10 watts from its tube complement. A single volume control and two-input panel lets you plug in two instruments. Its small enclosure and light power mean the BR-6 cooks up warm, touch-responsive breakup at bedroom-to-club volumes and preserves articulate clean tones at lower levels.
The 1x10" speaker contributes a focused low end and quick attack compared with larger-coned combos, making the amp suitable for rhythm and single-note lines where clarity is prized. The BR-6 offers an authentic vintage character for collectors and players seeking post-war Gibson tone.
