For context, I work part time at an instrument repair shop in Boston and yesterday somebody came in who was Joe Perry’s(from Aerosmith) tech and had some of his amps for us to fix up. I could be wrong but the amps in question were 2 Marshall Super Leads and 2 VOX AC50s(one AC50 is out of frame in the photo).
Just acquired this Wort amp, from my knowledge it was designed and hand made by a man in Winnipeg named Wayne who worked at Garnet amps, after doing some research I’ve seen only a few pictures of Wort amps but not a single one of the model I have, wondering if anyone has any clue about it??
Found this on the street and couldn't leave it behind! Used Claude to research it and here's what I found:
- 2x12 combo, 2 independent channels, Tremolo + Reverb on each
- Back plate: 50W nominal, 100W peak, 4 Ohm, AC 220V (European market)
- Knobs branded **Prince / Made in Japan** → likely **Prince Tsushinkogyo Co. Ltd.** (Nagoya, Japan, est. 1950)
- Visually similar to a Fender Twin Reverb but solid state
- Found a **Piggy 3** and a **Prince** amp that look very similar
- Speakers have minor cone tears, nothing serious
Does anyone recognize this exact model? Any help appreciated!
