I have seen several old Gibson amps that resemble Standels. Did the Standel folks make some Gibson amps? If so, what time peiod, and which models? Did the sound like Standels?

I've seen several that made me wonder in the past, but these Ebay sightings are what prompted the question;

And this one;

and not exactly a Gibson, but this CMI product also looks pretty similar to some Standels I've had;

So were the Standel made Gibson amps any good? Or were they really junk?

Thanks Micheal. That's kinda what I expected. I owned a Standel back in high school, and I have a couple of them now. I really like the sound of them. They also have a certain funky factor that I happen to like. I've known of a few of these Gibson amps in the past, and I always wondered about that.
