This is a super cool old Japanese made Lafayette by Univox from the mid 1960s.

Not a ton of info exists on these but they're comparable to heathkit amps. Reverb and tremolo are both in good working order, both channels work but there is a noticeable hum that probably means this will need a recap sooner rather than later. Regardless if you crank this thing up it'll give some pure 1960s/1970s rock tones. Very cool and worth dialing it in more. Will need a service before I'd call it gig worthy but I'm sure it would be cool for a recording amp if you want to go a white stripes kind of route.

Cosmetically a bit rough around the edges but no major blemishes aside from the holes cut in the back of the amp, presumably for air flow.
