Sorry folks if I'm wasting bandwidth...Bought a silverface Champ from a fellow who mentioned he had other amps he would be selling soon, and I thought I'd pass this on. One of these is, "a near mint BROWN Gibson ga-5t that harp players may also be interested in.The brown model is a totally different ga-5t than the single tube (Champ style) or the later black el84 models. This one runs about 8-12 watts and uses 6aq5 (mini el84) power tubes. It sounds great and has a Jensen re-issue C10Q installed." Contact Tom at tmisi~lobalbiz.net if you're interested. He also mentioned a Kalamazoo Model One --great cheap little harp amp-- that he has recapped and retolexed (?)(have I invented a word?). Can't vouch personally for Tom since I've only dealt with him on the Champ, but he *seems* on the up and up and has been forthcoming with me.
