I have a black tuck and roll 2-12G-2 150 guitar amp with 2, 12" 'Realistic' by Radio Shack speakers in it and the original cover that fits over the cab. The tuck and roll is in fantastic condition and so is the cover, though there are two small tears on the back of the cab. The amp works great except the reverb does not work. Could someone give me an estimate of what this amp could be worth?

About 200 to 225 with out its original speakers in it, although if those shack drivers have any stamped numbers on the mounting lip that start off with 328, then they are Utah made drivers and sound pretty good.
Most all of the 70s orange frame Utahs had aluminum voice coil covers and where good for 45 watts and went down to 70 cycles on the low end.
The latter black frame ones are good also but they increased the voice coil gap which cuts their SPL level a bit.

I still have serveral of these 12" drivers myself with one of them being in one of my 66 Univox U45B amps and it blows folks away with the way it sounds, in fact most of the time I have the little bugger lent out to friends for recording.

I've got an identical amp as yours. My amp has the original speakers with it but are blown. You could part out the amp and cab and get 300 for parts. Ebay the handles, reverb tank name badge, ports, power and polarity switches, pre amp and power amp boards, effects boards, jack plate, cabinet cover, casters and mounting plates. These amps are really worth more in pieces than a complete amp. Sad but true. pleat
