I looked at your pictures of the Mosrite amps. Mine is just like your bigger one... the BG-1000 except it has the AWARD emblem on top right and the VENTURES emblem at bottom.
Working on getting pictures in photobucket now.

A picture of the Mosrite BG 1000 from the back with the back off so you can see the speakers.

OK... I did it. Photos are posted of the Mosrite BG-1000. I dare not clean it or anything ... until I decide what to do with it. I am hoping someone here can give me more input. I live an hour and a half or two hours from Gruhn... would he have knowledge of this? I am looking for info about these... as to how many were made, and what collector value/interest there is.

Cool, that's a sharp amp. I wonder why they didn't make it a head/cabinet though.

Probably should post this in the Mosrite Amp section of this forum. You'd get a better exposure as a lot of members never visit the Introduction section again once they join the forum

I'm guessing from the profile photo that you don't have the tilt back bracket?
great find for sure!
