I have a friend in Texas who has his dad’s Magnatone in his garage on a shelf. I asked if he actually knew what he had, “yeah, My dads old junky amp”. “We keep it around to remember dad”. I told him to take it down, have it checked out and play that thing….

I have a friend that acquired a 2X12 version.I forget the model,but the vibrato was mesmerizing.I still cant figure out how a mono amp can sound stereo.Its better than any chorus Ive ever heard including the JC120 and Im still a big fan of Rockman Chorus.
