Built 1970-1974 in Germany, Tube power amp (2 EL34), one ECC81 and transistor preamp. Volume, treble and bass plus treble boost and bass boost, on/off and stand by. 2 inputs guitar (one low noise) and 3 inputs bass (one low noise). Back: 2 inputs (organ and rhythm). A mixture of Basskink T and Eminent II - but with more power 80 W sinus (110 w music). Loudspeakers 4, 8 or 16 Ohm. At the moment my home setup is this amp and a switch between a 1*12" Celestion for guitar and a 1*15" Chinese box for bass. Power is plenty, and it is my back-up, if something should happen to my old Vox AC30 TB

My guitars are a Burns Legend Custom DeLuxe, A Rickenbacker 12 string and a Gretsch 6118T-120. This is an amp for CLEAN, but that can be no problem. I just put my Boss GT-8 in front, and all sounds ar available. The tone is fantastic. An A/B with my Vox (the best I have heard) makes me want touse the Dynacord for gigs. When I play bass, I get just the sound I want.

I have been playing for 47 years and play jazz, early rock, dance band music in general (although my education says classical guitar!).
If it was lost, I would no doubt try and find another Imperator, but they are hard to find. If you see one. GO FOR IT. I love everything about it.
