Well on Saturday my wife and her mom and dad had a garage sale.While it was going on a guy came along and told me of another one just a block away so I decided to head over to check it out and kill some time.
I found this Thorcraft amp?
The model is a Mustang G-40.Here is about all I could find on it an the web
Thorcraft
I have not tried to plug it in yet because I have been working until today.I am going to clean it up and plug it in and see what happens
Anybody ever seen or used one.It is all tube
Thanks

That should be an excellent vintage amp. I played with a guy that used one in the '70's and it was a tone monster. Please post pics!

She's a beauty. I do believe you got lucky. Have you fired it up yet?

I bet if you contacted Not Just Another Music Shop in Vancouver, they could tell you a bit about it.
