Sorry for the English, I live in Italy. 4 tube amp made Italy for 30 years ago. Nice sounds for bass, guitar. I make gigs with the amp sometimes with a microphone, sometimes not, it is very loud, but not for big, big outdoors. I use Marshall extender speakers from the out at the behind of the amp for the big concert.

I play the classic rocks songs of 70's. The amp works for this very good, very good for blues and rock sounds like Led Zeppelin, Boston and the such. Good at quiet sounds with no distorting but bit of noisey because its tubes. And also for loud and distorting rock sounds this is good.

Good for concerts, does not break. Tubes always works good and have moved them 1 time in 9 year.

This company is in Italy but no more I think. I can not find them around in Italy, its probably stopped now.

I love this. This will not leave me until I find the better one. Beats the Marshalls amp for this style of the rock. I will not find another if the is stolen. If it could be 50/100w this would be nice but for now it is 30 I feel and this can be accepted.

1972 All tube (4 of them) amp. 3 inputs. EQ. Wish it had some nice built in reverb but can't have everything!

Lovely bluesy sound. Can get great tube distortion at low vols due to seperate input vol controls + master vol. I'll give this a 9 because although it sounds gorgeous nothing's perfect is it.

Brill. Never let me down. Gigged for 5 years with it, hasn't even needed tubes changing (although I have anyway!).

This amp is certainly one of the best I have ever owned and I've owned them all! I have been playing far longer than I want to remember, the only amps I can remember sounding better than this were my old VOX AC30 I had aaaages and ages ago and a very rare Selmer Combo (I forget the model) which I really wish I still had. That being said, there must have been a reason for me getting rid of those so I don't know, I would certainly like to stick this by those two and see how it holds up. Thanks.

This amp was made in May 1972 in Italy by Davoli Krundaal. The amp is very versatile, very nice clean sounds can go from jazz to reggae to rock to soul, perfect for just about anything really except high gain new metal type sounds. Has extension cab output on rear for larger gigging etc.
1 guitar input, 1 organ input and a bass input - all sound fairly similar, but the inputs do work better for the stated instruments. Only ever usually use the guitar input - all inputs have own 3 band eq + vol control then master vol.
This amp is a little smaller than a VOX AC30 or similar size amp. I would guess at the output being around 25/30 watts, possibly 20 as it is an all tube amp so is always going to be louder, but I couldn't be completely sure. Uses either 4 or 6 tubes - can't remember, haven't looked in the back for a while!

Using Patrick Eggle Vienna Pro with SD humbuckers with coil taps. Absolutely perfect for my tastes - Blues, rock a bitta pop :) Can be a little noisey but is to be expected from an old valve amp, still not so noisey that it can't be recorded with - I have got some excellent recordings from this amp. Very nice tube overdrive when volume is anything over 7 - very bluesy.

Very reliable have been gigging with it for around 2 years. Have used it both on its own, miked through PA and through an extension cab and has never once been a problem.

Don't think company is still around. I haven't dealt with them. But the original schematic is with the amp so errrmmm 9 for using good quality paper?

10 out of 10 - this amp is 30 years old and is still in perfect working order. Don't think I could find another if it were stolen, so let's hope it doesn't, pretty rare I think. If you have one of these you are very lucky! :) cheers. Best amp I've ever had including boogies, matchless and orange, perfect tone :).
