On eBay, a Guild Thunder 1 amp; a 'version 2' model, chassis straps on top, cut back front corners, strap and not 'D' luggage handle, and vertical metal chassis backpanel; Thunder 1 eBay link
Seller sez it has a 10" speaker; if it does, it's been changed. Originally equipped with 12" CTS, speaker in pic doesn't look like a CTS and seller offers no speaker ID numbers. Auction text says: "The bottom covering on the amp was mostly missing from wear and repaired, but no structural damage to the cabinet". Well, there might not be any damage to the bottom but the left side (facing) shows a hit half-way up the left/leading edge of the cabinet and the tolex delaminating left and right of the faceplate. The cabinet is particleboard and, when hit, highly susceptible to fracture. There is a cabinet glue joint right under those tolex joints and, if the cabinet were damaged, you'd expect to see delaminations precisely as shown in the pic.
Seller correctly IDs the # of channels but then says: "...2 inputs (Normal, High Gain)..." The amp doesn't have a 'high gain' input, it has a high impedance input that has nothing to do with gain. For those of you concerned about the condition of the cabinet feet, the seller reassures: "New feet/glides were installed, that were missing when I originally purchased the amp and most likely attributed to the wear." This guy had to have gone to HS in Florida; if nubbed off or no longer useful, chances are they were worn out or perhaps players were taking them off and chewing them for tone reasons.
