I know almost nothing about RIC amps, so this may be an easy one, but I am very intrigued by good-sounding, low-price SS amps. Saw one in a music store the other day, down the street from the MS Delta Blues Museum.
Played through it, and it sounded great. It looked like it was a 1x10, and it had tremolo (thought I don't think it was foot switchable) and a master volume. It was black tolex with "Rickenbacker" and "Santa Anna, Calif." on the top right of the faceplate above the power switch and "Made in U.S.A." on the top left above the two inputs. Knobs L to R were volume, bass, treble, speed, depth, master.
I have a blurry cell phone pic, but I am having a heck of a time uploading it because of the size restrictions - need to figure out an easy way to re-size. Trying to do that now.
Until then, can anyone ID it, based only on my poor description?
What amp is this?

Re: What amp is this?
I wanted to know so I could learn more about the amp. Now I know it's the most popular amp ever produced by RIC. Whoops. Probably could have figured it out on my own with a little more work. Boy do I feel silly.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Re: What amp is this?
I own a TR7 and a TR25. They are cool little solid state amps. Next I want a TR50...
