these were built in Auckland by Ken Wilson (died years ago) Have factory data / schematic for Gunn Classic (1976)


100 Classic 2x12 combo

Examined one of their 100 watt heads in the Music Swop Shop. Both the valve lineup and the size of the transformers really look the goods for 100 watts. A very solid head.

Gunn 100
The amp I tested used 3 x ECC83, 1 x ECC82, and 4 x EL34 output valves. The power amp circuit is similar to some 200 watt Marshall types. The two channel amp had simple tone controls on channel one and Marshall type tone controls with a simple foot switchable gain boost on channel two. Gunn made a variety of 50 and 100 watt amplifiers, some in combos.

50 Head

Price Paid: a few hundred dollars NZ used 

50w all-tube amplifier, probably in the 70's.
Around 25-30 years old.

Large, about a metre and a half long and fairly hefty.

Two channels (each with twin inputs)
each with separate volume knob,
Channel 1 has a blunter, low-end feel to it,
 would suit a bass guitar. 
Channel 2 is more high gain, with a crisper,
 treble tone.
Treble/mids/bass and presence control,
Power and standby switch.
Two speaker outputs (one primary, one secondary)
 16,8 or 4 ohms.
