The only things that I remember about it were that it had great tone, but only one knob on the entire control panel, which I believe was volume.

You're thinking of the BM-1. There was also an AC-30BM produced, which is no longer in production.

Not hard with a hollowbody guitar. Just stand in front and crank it.
Sounds like my intial plans of getting the Townshend feedback. I take it when you stand in front of it and crank it for feedback, John?

Jake, don't forget to turn down the neck pickup on your guitar. Then flip the pickup selector switch up and down during the feedback using only the bridge pickup.
