The Sho-Bud Christmas Tree amp has the controls in the upper left hand corner. It is a two channel amp with a reverb contol shared by the two channels. (channel one has vol.-bass-treble- ------channel two has vol.-bass-treble-reverb-speed-depth)(two inputs one NORMAL the other VIBRATO). It gets it's name from the colored lights behind the numbers on the control knobs, not from the shape (like the guy on ebay says--the one on ebay is a single channel---it has a mid control and a bright switch and no vibrato). I'd say $350.00 to $450.00 depending on shape and if it has a JBL in it.

I have both a C.T. and a single channel and like the C.T. a little better. Jimmy Murphy uses a C.T. and sounds great. Johnny Cox uses a single channel and sounds great.
Not sure exactly when they were made (early 70's to mid 70's)
hope this helps
Kevin
