I saw this also on ebay. Looks funky.

That is just cool. Looks to be 70's vintage. Decent-sized transformers. Probably some sort of Aussie-home-grown Marshall knockoff with groovy-cool styling, kind of like Univox in the US.

If I lived in Australia, I'd be all over that. Worst case, if it sounds like crap, you could gut it and turn it into a JTM45 or 50-watt Plexi clone.

Look on harmony central there are a number of reviews. Most are glowing. The Apollo 1 is considered to be an affordable Dumble clone and the Apollo 2 is considered a Marshall clone.
