I've only seen one of those in my entire life. John West was playing an accordion through a Cordovox at a Gary Lewis And The Playboys concert, Paintsville High School Gymnasium, circa 1966.

if you can get it dirt cheap, might be ok to fool around with, otherwise, its a generic 40 or so watt amp, that is impossible to move around... They are really not gig worthy as a guitar amp, and simply don't sound near as good as a dedicated guitar amp from the same era... They are still sought after as complete working sets with the accordian, and aren't cheap when 100% functional.. Unless you are getting it REALLY cheap, your money is way better off spent elsewhere.. I played through one several times many year ago, and it was certainly mediocre as a guitar amp.. Sounded very cool with the Cordovox accordian however, if you like a cheesy psuedo Farfisa type of sound.. {I do} bob
