Title: Vintage 1967 Astro Amp
Post by: tigerzilly on March 18, 2019, 01:40:33 PM
I picked up this vintage solid state guitar amp.  Its called Astro Amp by Universal Amplifier Corp.    It has two channels.  The second channel has a reverberator and a vibrator.  The 12" jensen speakers date the amp to around 1967. It has a retractable power cord and removable wheels.  There is absolutely no info on this amp or the company that made it.  The only thing I found is the Astrotone Fuzz pedal which carries the same Astro Amp graphic and was made by the same company.  If anybody has heard of this amp, please let me know.

Here are some pics.
