Old- New, and Old- New Amp Day:)

I am not a gambler, but I feel lucky

I bought this Kasino head and 2x15 cab when I first moved out to the mid-west about 10 years ago. It functioned perfectly and let a friend use it about 6 years ago that was dabbling on bass. He needed space and told me to come pick it up yesterday. I had totally forgotten about it.

It's only 100 watts but it really is quite loud and very full. For its size, it's surprizingly light and easy to move.

This afternoon I played a passive P-bass through it for about an hour and was grinning ear to ear at the tones you can coax out of this beast.

I don't know it's age... I'm guessing around 1970? When I bought it the guy said it was made by Kustom and was their non- tuck and roll series. Whatever the case it has a great array of sounds and surprising volume for a 40ish year old SS head.

Id be interested to hear anyone that has knowledge to share on this amp/ cab.

My DB750 is getting jealous of the attention I'm giving this rig

And yes, amps can stand sideways like an old Batman episode in my house.

TB has the floor ......

Hey Mark,

Not for sale, just sharing with being reunited with my amp and wondering if anyone has any good info on the history of these amps.

Thanks,
Derrick

Yes, 1970, I own the exact same model, although the jewel on/off light is purple in mine.
GREAT AMP using the low input.
