Hi, everyone. I just joined and I have some questions about this old Kasino amp. I know it's not widely sought "tuck' n'roll" type, but it's still a Kustom. I use this amp ALOT. It's definitely one of the best sounding amplifiers I've ever played through and looks great for it's age. It wasn't working when I first brought it home and I've experienced many problems in keeping it going (mostly, with the old solder turning loose), but it's my favorite. Basically, I'm curious about how I can get the best possible sound from it and tips for using the "monitor" and "tape recorder" output jacks. I don't have the original speaker cabs for it, so I'm using a 2x12 cab from a Sears amp, which is sporting a 1961 Jensen C12-N and a 1980 Rola-Celestion G12-30. The guitar I use most is an Epiphone LesPaul standard with stock pickups. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

You don't need a thousand dollar guitar to sound good... but it helps.
