Great little harp OR GUITAR amp!


The Lectrolab R200R300 and R400 are all firmly ensconced in the “student” amplifier category.  They were single-ended designs with one 6V6 output tube, or similar.  They were similar to a Fender Champ in this regard.  

Lectrolab upped the ante with the R500, which sports a 12″ speaker.  Like theR400B it has individual first stage channels for instrument and mic. Each of these use half of a 12AY7, and have their own volume control.  The signal from the first stages are mixed and then sent through a  inverter (another 12AY7). The inverter output drives a push-pull pair of 6V6 output tubes, with a shared tone control along the way.
