Have any of you guys used one of these? One popped up for sale locally for a good price, but they've got a garbage cabinet to check it out on. I've checked out some YouTube videos and my interest is piqued. Any thoughts? I've got a Triple Rectifier and a 6505 for the mega high gain stuff, but this seems like it could be fun despite the solid state factor.
 
Used to have one... Twenty years ago or so. I hated it for the most part but I was an ignorant noob then so that doesn't say much. It's pure transistor, pre-valvestate era, the reverb is unusable, the clean sound was shit (with a bit of distortion leaking in it) but the amp could probably sound decent with an overdrive boost in front of it and the right settings (I remember one knob -volume maybe- was a push pull that changed the voicing significantly).
 
Thanks guys!
