Acetone SA-1 Solid Ace

[atf]

I bought this 1975 solid state amp for 50 bucks and this thing is AMAZING! Such a nice retro sound. The reverb and tremolo are all top notch. And the speaker I suspect is Alnico cause the compression with pedals was tube like. Anyone here has one of these as well?

It's an early Roland amp. The company was originally called Ace Tone and changed to Roland later in the 1970s. As you can see it was often mistaken for the word for the chemical acetone.

Really "clean and thin" sounding amp, no doubt

I was unaware Aceman had a signature amplifier and his own line of solvent?
Awesome!
