Rickenbacker 1979 Vintage TR25

Dont have much info on this Amp. I think it was made in 1979. Anyone knows? How much is this Amp worth? It is surprisingly clean for its age. Here are some reviews I found on line:

I thought I was the only one
I bought mine new in 1979-1980.
I love it!
It's got all the bells and whistles.
I think mine was $150. in '79.
Thanks Wooly for your input. I've got this one used. It was well built and looks solid & clean for a 30 years old Amp. The sound is very bright (typical Ric sound I guess) and is quite different than my other tube Amps (no deep bass)

I am selling this Amp for $150 OBO plus UPS shipping from 60148. Anyone who is interested, please PM me. It is a very clean AMP and works well.

Thanks. That's encouraging. I am so used to Fender Twin Reverb sound that I should not expect surf tone from this TR25.
