The bluesiest-funkdom with the volume on 5 and the tone on 5-8 from any guitar. A satanic grunge blues distortion with the volume on 10. Billy Gibbons would love this amp. Class A, two 35L6 output tubes operating in parallel, not push-pull. 6J5, 6SL7 preamp tubes. 35Z5 rectifier. 8" speaker.When hideously overdriven, emits amazingly horrible intermodulation distortion and random squaks (~3V in).

Hums loudly sometimes. But that's just OK. Volume and tone knobs emit lovely cracklin noises when turned.

Awesome Blues-rock amp. Would sound like shit for country or strat, hendrix, or metal sounds. This came with a funky sort of hawaiian? lap (table actually) guitar thingey. Some of these old amps sound horrible, some sound awesome (this one) and give you a unique sound.
