JoeArthur	Re: Transistor Gibson Les Paul Amp B.B. King did use them in concert... a least for a while... maybe around 1969. I seem to remember the control panel lighting up. It also has a "crossover" switch to lower the treble control frequency an octave... and a middle position on the vibrato (phasor) tremolo switch to use both of them together... each with their own depth control. I've only seen one since... at a vintage guitar show a couple of years back. It wasn't for sale, just a display.
