I picked up a vintage RMI 140 vintage transistor amp for almost nothing. Plugged my strat in and it sounds good with plenty of power. Separate spkr cab has 1-15" JBL and 2 tweeters. I can't find hardly anything online about it other than it was made in the late sixties and early seventies by Rocky Mount Instruments in North Carolina a branch of the Allen Organ Corporation. It has reverb and tremolo which both work but one channel doesn't work. I would appreciate any info I can get regarding this amp.

Trying to attach the picture again. First one is a link to photobucket that I am pretty sure will work. The front grill on the RMI 140 is removed and sitting below the speaker cabinet.
