This is a playboy box style with a 12" speaker that
is made by valco and is the equivalent of the famed
supro 1624 dual tone... the features can be found

amazing amp same as the supro dual tone classic 6973 tubes
great for jazz at low volume and well you know what reputation
the supro 1624 dual tone has... basically this is your classic
valco/supro dual tone with a gretsch name on the amp.

very reliable for a 1960's amp, and so light with 12" weighs less
than a Princeton and blows it away in versatility

Best kept secret, heres a way to get a supro dual tone 1624 without
having to spend 2K to get the legendary 6973 tube sound through a
12" speaker. I much rather have this vintage gretsch/supro amp
than the new "playboy" amp listed at $2300!
