Founded by Ikutaro Kakehashi, Ace Tone can be considered an early iteration of the Roland Corporation (also founded by Kakehashi), known for their amplifiers and early drum machines. This rare 1960s Mighty-5, in cream coloured tolex features a dual-channel, dual-input design (Normal and Treble), with onboard spring Reverb and Tremolo. At the heart of this amp are a pair of 50HB26 power tubes, rated at 25 watts. Plenty of headroom with super clean tones even when cranked. Treble/Bass EQ knobs have a broad sweep. Unique reverb circuit with two small reverb tanks inside the chassis (one tank per channel) coupled to dedicated balance and volume controls. The power transformer has taps for 100v (Japan) and 117v (USA) operation, with a discreet switch on the underside of the chassis to toggle between voltages. The tube complement comprises all of the original matching Matsushita-branded valves, with a pair of 50HB26s power tubes and a preamp comprising three 12AX7s, a 6AV6, and a 6AQ8. The matching cream coloured cabinet is loaded with one 12” speaker and one 8” tweeter, and both original alnico magnet Ace Tone-branded speakers. Excellent response and sound coverage with the 2 different sized speakers. Brushed aluminum faceplate with pristine graphics and all silver barrel knobs intact. Minimal wear on the rare cream coloured tolex, which is in better shape than any MIGHTY 5 you will find online. Also comes with the original foot switch in a glossy red to match the small Ace Tone logo on the upper right of the amp face. This amplifier has had a full service done by Larry at Red Rock Amplifiers in Manitoba. The 2 prong plug has been updated to a grounded 3 prong plug. Service receipt with all the finer details is available upon request.
