This amp only needed the cathode caps replaced as the main retube and recap was already done. Both together compliment each other amazing. Preamp one gives enough body even with the tone knob on full preamp two is just really treble due to a bright cap. The car-esque aesthetics is really expanded by the two orange lights mimicking the blinking lights of a car. The output its formed by two 6L6 tubes with cathode bias giving it 30 - 35W output power. Preamp bias trem, a very limited (but great sounding) tone knob and a very early phase inverter makes this amp dynamic, clear and loud. Mostly seen under the Supro badge it is a dual preamp, tremolo loaded amp that sounds just amazing. Valco was named after their founders: V.A.L. Most know them from the Supro and National brand. This Airline Galaxy amp S6688 amp was also produced under different names by the Valco company, a brand that made a lot of different instruments and amplifiers.
