Today, Guitar Porn is Amp Porn...same diff, as the kids used to say when i was one of em...Here's a new (a very old new) amp I just rebuilt...way cool...a late 1940's "Fidelity" amp...with just a volume and tone knob and a great sound...like a tweed fender champ...yee-haw...tone? Sounds like Neil Young's live rig...

Yummy. Great little amp...if you out there have any broken things that look like this, send them my way...:)

8" alnico speaker...good growl...

Tube line-up, you ask? (Well, maybe only Mark Andrea is asking, as he's the only tube amp geek like me I know who might be reading this...)...but, for Mark, at the very least...

7F7 (odd, but effective preamp tube)...5Y3 rectifier...sounds chewier with a 5U4, though...and a single 6V6 output for crankin' overdrive.

And it's way cute...
