After viewing the post in 'Steel Players' called "Family Members That Play Steel", I decided to do some more research on my Cousin, Billy Vann (played guitar and steel guitar in Michigan for Rem Wall, as did Paul Franklin). Along with some family ancestry info, I ran across this ad at Carter Vintage Guitars. This echosonic amp was owned by my cousin, and has the modifications he made to the amp. The Echosonic was the predecessor to the Echoplex delay unit.
Really cool amp.
