Not to be confused with the GA-79RVT, as this unit is without tremolo. This is a unique amplifier with "stereo" features, along with reverb. It features 2 separate output transformers, which makes for an interesting spread of sound amongst the separate inputs. The wedge design is reminiscent of the Watkins Dominator, and features a centrally mounted reverb tank that can make for some sensitivity with reverb usage, as it's very responsive to the vibration of the cabinet. It has a very unique design and great sound!

Internally, the power cord, electrolytic caps, and all coupling caps have been changed. The majority of the original resistors are still intact.

Local pickup only.
