Just playing loudly and thought I would toss the cam up for a sec. My early 70s V4 grinds quite nicely when asked.

It's a raging beast that also has no equal in terms of eq range, and gain boost/cut. A constant punch in the gut! It took forever, but these guys are going for pretty good coin these days. Wish I had nabbed some more when they were 300.00....

Assume you are talking about the Klipp L60 amp? That is a PA head so it does not have the KLIPP boost/fuzz and as a result it sounds pretty much identical to the earlier Supergroup. A beautiful low mid grind, slower note response than a Plexi, darker in the mids as well, but the open character that the Partridge transformers offer give it a tone that I have not heard out of any other amp.

Yup. Very versatile amp (if not the most versatile amp) for it's time. It has its own positively Ampeg tone, yet can easily copy a Marshall or Fender tone as well.
I still have the one my dad bought new in '76, with the matching '75 cabinet. Like a fool, I sold my own around 2005. It was in great condition and had all new tubes. D'oh!
