Could be a Simul-Satellite. 4 knobs, i believe (volume, tone, presence, master w/ EQ). Course, the ones I've seen say "Simul-Satellite" on the front.

What were they asking for it ?

Post a pic of it.

I saw that amp. It was a simul satellite. It has STR454 6L6's and STR415 or 417 EL34's in it (can't remeber exactly). They are asking 650.00 for it. It is a rackmount version. It looks pretty beat up from what I remember. I don't need any more power amps, so I didn't spend time with it...

$650 seems a bit high, especially if it's beat up (although they are getting harder to find). I picked one up off of ebay in a new headshell last year to pair with my Mark IV. It works great for a stereo Mark IV setup, but it impressed me by itself as well. It has a very simple preamp so it works as a stand alone guitar amp. It's got a foot switchable boost built in and can get some very decent blues dirt. It also takes pedals very well and you can footswitch the EQ in and out.

It is high, that's why it's been in there for so long IMO

I actually used the Simul-Sat for quite a while as a stand-alone rig using a TS10 tubescreamer Classic, a Marshall Guv'nor and an Ibanez Tube King in conjunction with the Tonebone Loopbone. This amp was VERY pedal friendly due to its simple preamp structure. Mine was a 1x12 combo and made for a very powerful, portable (O.K., it did weigh a ton as usual) reliable rig. $650 for a beat rack version is too steep, though, IMHO. Z
