Yep - Made in CHCH around early 80s = wicker front combo 60w valves EL 84 I think 1 x 12.
Similar to the early 60/100 Rockits - obviously back then there were no Mesa's around so if you wanted something like it the Abbey or or the Rockit were the choices.

I had one in the early 90's a 100 watt with wicker front, 6L6's and 12ax7's,bloody heavy amp too I brought it from Cj's in chch,and I actually had a matching ext cabinet to go with mine.I sold it and cab for $600 in the mid 90's wish i never did now.

If the name on the image is right, that dude would be the classical and jazz guitar lecturer at Christchurch Music School. Or something like that.

That would explain the short strap. Saves buckle rash on the back of his gat tho'
