NAD - son’s first amp (maybe)

Got a great deal on a guitar for my eldest’s upcoming birthday but thought I was going to have to hold off on an an amp until I managed to score this today for 60 bucks and a trip to Matamata. Image

Pretty awesome practice amp - heaps of usable tones and a thousand times better than what I started with (starting to think dad might need to hold onto it and he can just have my old daphon 10w bass amp)

Answer to obvious questions: works great- a bit of hiss but otherwise fine. Not stolen (except maybe by me at that price).

I didn't arrange all those amps. I just found the pic online. ;-)
