We're having a refresh in the shop and selling some of our display amps. Nothing wrong with them and they may not come with the original box. Condition is excellent but there may be one or two marks on them as they've been moved around and tried in the shop

The Telstar blends the sinewy harmonic assertion of EL84s with the deep full control of 6L6s in a new and unique push pull recipe. You may have a 6L6 amp or an EL84 amp but not an amp that uses both types in harmony for a new pallet of expression. The Telstar sound can easily range from haunting rich cleans to creamy overdrive. The Lean/Lush switch tailors the body of the tone while the 53/58 switch changes the overall gain structure and the frequencies the Tone control emphasizes. Sonically treading the years from early Fullerton 50s roundness thru late 50s proto British bite. Power: 17 Watt to 0 Watts with built in Attenuator Tubes: 1) 12AX7, 1) 12AT7, 1) 6SL7, 1) EL-84, 1) 6L6 Channels: 1 with two modes Controls: Lean/Lush toggle, Volume, Tone, Reverb, 53/58 toggle, Attenuator Switches: Off/On/Play Footswitch: No Reverb: Yes FX Loop: No
