Re: 1977 MKII 50watt Info
Wow thats a very interesting looking 50 watt,
looks like it has either 6550's or KT66 power tubes and has had a master volume added and looks like an ohms switch? Reminds me alot of the amps we used in the late 70's and early 80's in the LA bands, which sounded sweet. check out this link, the color is called "Fawn" great amps Mk II Series - 50 Watt Models . |

Re: 1977 MKII 50watt Info
Thanks for the info! I have had it for about 6 years now and hav'nt really took the time to find out much about it. There 6550 plus I think the power supply was changed.The rest of the mods were there when I got it. It only does one thing but thats the thing I like. To hear it there's some live tracking on our my space. MySpace.com - Luna Down - JERSEY CITY, New Jersey - Rock / Punk / Garage - www.myspace.com/lunadown

Re: 1977 MKII 50watt Info
classic 57....I always amazed at how much you can get from a 57 for rock....just has that vibe....(Daiking pre plus 3...not familur..is that placed in a lunchbox...or did you also use an API moduals)
