I got this amp along with a bunch of other stuff yesterday from a friend who can no longer play due to an accident several years ago. He‘s trying to get his wife to throw stuff out, and he figured if he gave me stuff that hasn‘t been turned on in over thirty years, it would give home some leverage.
About the amp. I know it‘s solid state. It has a Harmonic Divider with Switches for high and low. An Octave Divider with Switches for One and Two. Then it also has onboard reverb and distortion. Ed also put a pair of EV speakers in it, and made a new grill for it.
It hasn‘t seen electricity for over thirty years, so I‘ll need to clean it up and make sure it‘s safe to turn on. Other than being a sought after jazz amp back in the late seventies and early eighties, does anyone know anything about these? I sent pictures to my bass player last night, and he called me back in milliseconds to say I scored big time and that they are pretty nice. He has been on the hunt for a Minibrute for ages.
Along with the amp, Ed also gave me a Scholtz Soloist with the original power supply, a seventies Electro-Harmonix Stereo Memory Man, and an Ibanez DM1000 Digital Delay.
It will be fun to see ifany of this stuff still works. I hope they all do. The Memory Man will probably be the easiest to repair if they don’t.
