Hendrix allegedly used this amp during his endorsement deal with Sunn around 1968. One of these amps recently appeared at auction on Reverb.com, paired with 2×15 cabinets loaded with JBL D140 speakers. The asking price was approximately $150,000.
Unfortunately, the listing has since been removed, and no additional information is available. In our research, we haven’t found any photos of Jimi using these amps. He primarily seemed to use Sunn Spectrum II and/or 100S models during his brief association with the brand.
