    Not as bad as their reputation.

    • ozwingman

      I didn’t know that they had a bad reputation.  This is the first time I’ve ever heard anything but glowing reports.  I love mine for what it’s worth.

  • Shaggy

    Extremely underrated amplifier.  What this page doesn’t mention is that they are point to point handwired with transformers the size of volkswagons.

  • Dogbite

    Owned mine since the 80′s, replaced the speaker (destroyed with guitar synth, my bad), power supply rebuilt – largely due to old age/dry caps – but otherwise for a 30 year old amp it’s a cracker! The reverb is particularly nice, gives a classic Fender clean sound and a nice crunch. I have the TAD small bottle 6L6WGC-STR’s in mine which sound a bit more ‘vintage’ and the amp is very quiet (in terms of unwanted noise and hiss).  If you see one going for cheap second-hand, check it out.

    Does any body know the rating of the speakers in the 2×10? I’m a multimeter brain donor……Are they 8ohm or 16ohm?

    • Jamesfoxx57

      there 4 ohms each = 8 ohms

    Speaker out on 410 is 8ohm not 4 ohm as quoted.
