1551.0. "Leadmaster amp" by USRCV1::REAUME (0 to 60 on six strings) Thu Nov 09 1989 18:35

      I found a old Studiomaster catalog in my files. I use their mixer
    in my band so that's why I had it. I almost forgot that they had
    offered a guitar combo amp. It was called the Leadmaster and looked
    like a nicely done piece. It had a nice hardwood cabinet and a round
    metal speaker grill. It was definitely a tube amp and had at least
    a gain switching system, if not two entire channels. I also remember
    that GP did a review on it and rated it quite highly. I'll try to
    bring in and post  some of the info I have. I have no idea if the 
    Leadmaster is still in production or how many got around, 
    
    
      I never saw one!

     OK, I finally brought the catalog in to update this topic. Apparently
    not many people knew of this amp!
