Distributed by the Noble Accordians, Chicago.
two tone black and white covering.
No clear identifying maker, though IS certainly a Danelectro based on identical features, knobs, and double chassis (preamp on top, poweramp on bottom) design of many mid '50s danelectros (such as Danelectro Model 89 Series D Tube Amp recently on ebay).
2 channels, each with 3 inputs-all of same tone. has working tremolo. Footswitch jack for tremolo.
single 12" speaker.
I use this at home as a practice amp. I wish it had reverb.

Using vintage guitars with this--an old silvertone hornet, as well as a gibson ES 347. Has a lot of tube hiss, unchanged with the level. However, I have not changed out the old tubes yet. Stays clean through moderate levels. Gets REAL loud for its size after about "3". Keeps a champ amp sound.

It's new for me, but is all original with the exception of the tubes after nearly 50 years.

The old danelectro company is now out of business, as is the Don Noble.

I bought it for the name--mine. I ended up getting a fantastic vintage amp too in near mint condition.
