I just picked up what has been referred to as one of the first boutique amp companies 2x12 combo...yes; I got a Bedrock 652 combo (missing the logo). Overall, the amp is in excellent condition and besides the fact that it needs new tubes (mandatory for any new amp purchase) it sounds fantastic. For years I played through a Peavey Classic 50 (distincly different sound) and I think with an A/B box this amp will round off my sound while giving me the ability to swith between or combine the two distinctive sounds.

This is my tube amp. It's a MODAR MODEL 50. I'd never heard the name but it's a great little practice and recording amp.

Yeah, these amps were engineered by some real pros in the audio circuit field. 13 tubes in this thing, triode/pentode switching and one of the first amp modeling circuits. They also had optional speaker choices like JBL's, etc. SD made a head version of this amp too. This combo weighs a ton!
