1977-78 solid state 50 watt 1 12" combo. Very simple control layout consisting of volume, bass, mid, treble, reverb and master volume. The reverb and master volume can be controlled via footswitch which came with the amp. Has effects loop in back as well as an speaker out.
This amp is simplicity at it's best. VERY LOUD for a small combo, and more then enough power for small to mid size gigs.
Sound Quality

Using a route 101 tele, EKO LP and a peavey T-60. I tend to favor the tele sound, but the Lp is very rich and fat. I play everthing from 60's pop to todays stuff. This amp can handle it all. The amp is very quiet, and the footswitchable master give it a nice boost for lead breaks. The reverb is just average.
Reliability

I have only had it a couple of months, but have had no problems. I would gig with this amp without backup, based on the history and reliability of Acoustic products.

Acoustic went out of buisness in the mid 80's. They made some of the best amps ever made. If I ever need service, I have a great local amp tech. This amp is a tank, and I don't expect any problems.

i bought this at a garage sale without even playing it. I did plug it in and it powered up. I have been playing off and on for 35 years. I have played and owned a ton of gear, and this one is a great amp. If some poor dumb ass stole it, I'd rip him up.
