I found this amp for sale locally for $275.. I cant find any specs on it. Does anyone know anything about this little guy?

Solid State 100W amp. About as simple as it gets.

nice... does anyone know how these sound? I would be willing to buy the thing and upgrade the speaker to get the most out of it

I own one. I think it is 50 watts. I tried upgrading the speaker with a BP102 and it made no difference, it still farted out. I switched back to the original speaker. All it is good for is a bedroom practice amp IMO, which is what I use it for. It doesn't really handle any lows at volume (4 string). I hope I've been helpful.

One could open a museum with all of the oddball amps Ampeg has produced over the years.

Thats in really good condition, but I think its too expensive. I've seen their guitar counterparts go for less than 200 recently on ebay. They were selling me one locally (guitar amp) for 100 bucks and I didn't buy. If you're really interested, try to get them to lower the price.
