THat amp doubles as both a toaster oven and the front end of a Cadillac, right?

I shall try, even though I am not that good at tech talk (I'm slowly learning, though, as I want to get my amateur radio operator's license sometime soon and need to befriend the field of electronics).

These amps are all one of a kind so there are no real written specs or schematics available for any of them. I don't even know what year mine was made, though I was told it was late 1950s-early 1960s by the guy I purchased it from. My dad and I are currently working on determining the source of a slight buzzing noise, which is likely the elderly capacitors. A quick Google search will provide some basic information on the company and their mysterious history.

Anyway:

-30 watts or so (?) into a 15" speaker--likely a Jensen unless it's been replaced since manufacture
-tubes: 2 6L6s, 2 12AX7s, and a 5U4 rectifier
-external speaker output jack on the back panel
-2 channels--clean or else tremolo with speed control, as well as tone and volume controls for each channel (the tremolo sounds amazing, which seems to be common among all amps of this ilk)
-1 footswitch jack to turn the tremolo on and off. My psycho-roommate's boyfriend stole the original footswitch because he was a kleptomaniac asshole, but my ex-husband made me a new one out of an old "teet salve" tin (I was not previously aware that cows' teets required moisturizing).

Also, I forgot to mention that one of the tremolo knobs is missing in the photos because of recent repair attempts.

Was that at all helpful? Like I said, it's not as though I can look at a manual and neatly quote from it.
