These have been referred to as the "Buddy Holly Amp", and feature a true stereo pitch-shifting vibrato. This is created through having a full two output transformer power section, with mirrored pairs of 6973 power tubes. The stereo vibrato effect is truly unique, and is one of the most interesting modulation sounds you can find.
This one shows moderate signs of previous wear, and has a missing handle but is still in good shape for the most part. The speakers have been reconed, and it has a changed power cord, along with a couple caps to help service functionality in the vibrato section, but is otherwise all original.
