This amp was built in September of 1978, with the chassis initialed by the famed Randall Smith. This one happens to be an odd duck, in that the chassis was built out as a 100w (2 extra WIRED tube sockets), but it has the 60W power and output transformer. For all intents and purposes it a 60w model, as it will not produce more wattage without a transformer swap. This could have been something that changed last minute at the customer's request. Also Ch.1 & 2 are internally jumped, to where 1 cascades into 2, and won't pass signal without ch. 2 volume up. I'm not sure if this is stock or a tweak done at the factory. The amp has working reverb, and the original Electro-Voice 12" speaker.
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
