This Vintage 47 Amp known as the Chicago Triple is no longer being made. It's got 1-10" alnico, 1-8" alnico, and 1-8" ceramic speaker. You can change the tubes to suit your purpose. With a 6V6, 6SL7 preamp, and 5Y3 rectifier, you get about 5 watts of ROCK. Change it to a 5881 or 6L6 you get 8-10 watts. It's killer for recording. Mic whichever speaker suits your sound and a room mic. Early blues to Derek and the Dominos to Zeppelin all day long.
This one was built just as David sold the company. During the pandemic I had Bruce Clement at BC Audio, the octal tube expert and wonderful amplifier builder, clean up the noise floor a bit. It's fun for recording. Has a boost switch that sounds killer for lead.
There are several videos on YouTube you can check out. There's a guy in the Netherlands that uses it for jazz. With the 6L6 and the 5U4 rectifier you can get a bit of headroom for a cafe gig or rock turned up. You can switch the tubes without rebiasing. I used it with a volume pedal and a clean amp to bring the dirty side in as needed.
