I've got this exact amp, It's an old Univox solid state from the seventies. I don't think they're particularly worth any money, I bartered for mine at a local pawn shop for like 50 bucks. Really killer amp. I like to crank the tone up to about one a clock and toss my MXR distortion + through it. Killer overdrive. Mine was all original. I like the different inputs too. The organ input is really flat and clean, and the mic one is a little trebley, but the guitar one can sound nice and fat with a little tweaking. That tremelo is crazy on it too if you crank em both up it sounds like a flying saucer. Cool amp. I like your mod, but I don't have the wood working skills to do something like this. Hope they're not worth any cash or you'll be regretting this mod. haha. :P

Nice instructable you've got there, I especially like how your vinyl application came out. Was wondering, where did you get the corners you used on the finished product??

I like this man. I was thinking of making my Crate Flexwave 212 combo into a head, and this helps out greatly. Thanks.
