Oh for @#$*(% sake man! I can't believe he replaced the tolex with felt and put an Orange logo and symbol on the grill. What in the hell is wrong with this guy?!

it's still a model t (albeit a 2nd gen. but still!)!!!!!    and someone might be able to snag it on the cheap because of that.

Someone better snag it for a lot cheaper, 2nd gen model or not. He practically ruined the outside of the amplifier.  :x

I like how he says that the Orange faceplate has made it a "good conversation piece." I can only imagine how those conversations started...

Ouch....  shows this seller has no clue ! Funny how he paid more attention to changing the cosmetics in a way that actually hurt the value,than to replacing the missing input jack.   

Most of it is reversible but he really ruined it by removing  the "Model T Sunn" banner from the control panel faceplate.   Not sure how you would fix that. ?????

Wow.  Just wow.  I think I might try and get it, since I'll be in Vegas in a few weeks.  Could be a great piece to fix up and 'de-orange'. :)

YES!  Finally, a quality modification!  Did you replace the crappy guts with solid Crate components? I'll have my Behringer Model V project up soon!

I admit it would cool with orange knobs and tolex too but still, what a blasphemous thing to do to that amp.
