anyone ever seen one of these?
im asking my polish mate who's been in bands for years about em.

it looks almost like a 5150 with EL34's.
similar controls. 5 x 12AX7 preamp tube
it has a choke by the looks of it. which a 5150 doesnt. and the preamp tubes are mounted on top of the chassis rather than behind a plate under the back of it. and the filter caps are on the outside of the chassis too.

i cant really understand much polish www.soundman.pl
but it looks interesting. I've stumbled onto some weird polish amps before. ive always wondered how they compare.

I'm pretty sure this amp has been up on ebay for several weeks. They sound interesting but, to be honest I know nothing about them. Could be an absoolute bargain, or could be a dog.

haha. nice one!
i think these things look pretty interesting.
i could read the spec of the amps, but not all the sales pitch stuff.
