You have to take the bottom cover off then remove the screws holding the top.
From what I can see it's never been off. There is accumulated dust and dirt. Not as pretty I am guessing as the sealed up bottom. It is untouched.

Tube or solid state? If solid state,, likely not interested. I see transistors (old TO-105 or 106 package) on the bottom side,, so likely an early solid state design with interstage transformers, and maybe Germanium totem pole outputs.
Does have a driver transformer, with 2N3055s and double Zobels.

It was one of the first high powered solid state basic amps. You sound somewhat familiar with this amp. I would lIke to move it as my time is short. Like I said previously it doesn't look like it has ever been worked on.Does have a driver transformer, with 2N3055s and double Zobels.

Have seen it around at some point in time. Probably would be best to sell as-is on ebay, after vacuuming out the dust.
Too antiquated ss amp for anyone here to buy, but there are collectors for about anything, if in nice condition.
Say you are the original owner if you are, and the original box is a big plus if you have it.

I have WAY to much of both but the first solid state amplifier I built in 1960s was the driver small amp in this amp from schematic published in Electronics World when I was in high school. You can try calling me at [

I am south of Chicago. I haven't put a price on it because I want to be fair but not give it away. This amp has a value but I don't have an Orion Blue Book. I will try to call tomorrow tell me what time and your time zone.What do you want for it. Where are you and is there any equipment or parts you are looking for?
