Teisco Checkmate tube amp--- anyone have some info on it?
« on: March 09, 2013, 06:18:51 pm »
Hi brothers in tonality!  I saw this amp listed on peabay and wondered if the amp is a 'sleeper' at this price?  Do these Japanese amps have weird tubes and strange circuits?

Standard tubes - 12AX7 & 6L6, kinda pricey though...
