neat huh?
The seller sent me pics asking about some replacement parts.
It may be coming to my office as an interesting conversation piece.

But, seriously, any info on its heritage?

yeah really!
it is probably a Valco amp labelled as a Hi-Tone. But I don't know for sure.
I know back in 2007, when I was researching the name, there were no amplifier associations that I could find.
It is a cute little mystery.

That slanted rear control panel and old Thordarson-style PT sure look 'Valco' to me.
