I've seen this model before. As with other 'made for Rickenbacker by National' amplifiers, this one is not much more than a ruggedized hi-fi amp of the period. Not much gain and not too efficient. You'd think from the tube compliment you'd see at least 30 watts at the output. Not so! 12 watts RMS is about tops for these babies when they're working correctly!

Tracy: During what period did National manufacture amplifiers for Rickenbacker?
