This is an old lap steel amp I got on ebay probably 8 or 9 years ago. It still works fine, though it's kind of beat up. Someone painted some music notes and the name "Rhythm Makers" on it with white paint. I can't find any brand name anywhere on it.
It looks like it has "slots" made into the inside ends of the amp, like perhaps you could put your lap steel inside the amp and carry them both together. However, none of my lap steels will fit.
Maybe someone on here can tell me what it is. I've attatched pics.
Help identifying this old lap steel amplifier

hi steve, it is a supro 60,with an 80 rectifier tube, 2 6k6 power tubes and an 6sj7 and 6sf7. the knob only goes to 6, what were they thinking in those days? it comes with a small lap steel [faded silver pearloid usually]that fits in the case. they seem to be quite rare. with the caps and cord etc replaced a mellow little supro amp with a dark tone. i like mine, have 2. regards, rob szpuk [lots of lap steels and tweed amps]
