I took a brief look today at a Flotatone amp someone is going to bring to me for basic service, and I was wondering if much was known about them.
It's a very simple circuit: 2 x 6SC7, 2 x metal 6L6, rectifier tube, two instrument jacks and two old-style mic inputs, no effects of any kind, fairly substantial-looking round-magnet Alnico 12" made by Consolidated Speakers.
There was very little on the amp to give clues about the production date. It has three narrow-can electrolytics with no date codes.
A quick search suggests that no schematics are available, so I'll sketch one out when it's on the operating table.
