Wait, isn't this what THD does with their Univalve amps?

No - From the Univalve Manuel...

"9. FULL POWER/ATTENUATOR Switch: When set to Full Power, the Hot Plate iscompletely removed from the circuit for Full Power playing into a speaker. When set to
Attenuator, the Hot Plate is placed in the signal path after the power section and the Hot
Plate Attenuator Control above is activated. The Standby switch should be in the standby
position when switching between the Full Power and Attenuator settings.

I just remember seeing one where there was a light bulb glowing in time with what the guy was playing. Guess it was this:

Light Bulb ON/OFF Switch: The light bulb is part of the noise reduction system of
the amplifier. When the light bulb is turned on, the noise reduction circuit is enabled.
When turned off, the noise reduction circuit is disabled. The light bulb is powered by the
signal coming from your guitar. Thus when you stop playing, the light bulb will stop
glowing. If the light bulb does not glow even when it is switched on and you are playing,
the bulb may need to be replaced.
