Had this amp head thrown in with a bunch of other gear I was buying. I probably wouldn't have even bothered powering it on but my kid took a shine to it and also I wanted to teach him how to power up stuff on a variac and LBL, test for DC on the output, etc. It turned out to have a bad bridge rectifier. The amp itself is kind of odd, it looks like it has an interstage transformer before the driver transistors, I think. IIRC Sunn did this on SS amps too. The transformers look to be dated 1969. I think the little side circuit board is the tremolo. Doesn't seem very loud, even for a low power amp.
Can't tell if this control plate actually goes with this amp or not, the cutout for it looks like a beaver on ritalin made it, not to mention the exposed metal edge seeming a little odd. No brand, model, or function markings whatsoever.
For some reason that gold patterned control plate makes me think Gretsch, not that I think that is what it is.
