EXP AMPS?

[crashtm1]

I’ve had this stashed away for some time now. Has anyone ever heard of them?
Appears to be a 2 channel, 4 power tubes and 7 preamp tubes. I’m not finding anything on the web.

That's a long way from being called an amp!

Never heard of them. But the tube compliment and the faceplate look like an SLO with reverb. I have a Yamaha T100 that looks very similar. Those amps don't have the greatest reputation, but with the right tweaks and good transformers, I think they are pretty good.


There have been several tube amp startup companies that didn't make it. I have some chassis that were made for some of those companies too. Perfectly good stuff, just that the companies never took off.


There are tons of people making tube amps and the big companies are flooding the market with "reissues" of the amps that most people are making from scratch. It leaves little room for a little guy to start anew without some major groundbreaking new creation. New creations are hard to come by. Recently, I was very excited because I thought I had come up with something new only to find out that I had stumbled upon something that has already been in existence longer than I have.
