Not mine.Just thought I would post it for anyone interested in a nice little 7 watt solid state amp with tremelo made in the USA .This is the second version of this amp with a distortion knob and headphone jack. Its just a practice amp but these amps have beautiful warm sound.They are rated 7 watts but they have a "bounce back" circuit(like a strobe) to give it the "illusion of loudness"(that is what it said in the 1979 Rick catalog) so the sound more like a 25 watt(SS)amp. Anyway I think the are cool and anything with the word Rickenbacker on it is a solid investment if you can buy it at the right price.This will probably sell for around $100.
