BIZARRE AMP QUESTION!

Farrow	BIZARRE AMP QUESTION! I just picked up this piece at a thrift store this morning - it's a 2-12 combo, 3 12AX7s, 2 EL84s, a 9-pin tube rectifier (6X5? EZ81?) with two crappy speakers in it. Inspected it for loose wires or missing components, and it seemed okay. I've got to work on it a bit, but it powers up and sounds pretty good. Here's the odd bit - no brand name on anything, the front panel says "MODEL XX," and "Made in USA." It's covered in black Naugahyde, but with the buttons, like an old Earth amp. Anybody know what's up? Thanks Farrow http://surf.to/pharaohamps
