Yes it does work! It almost looks like new it also came with a original amp cover with logo's on them also. I do have more pictures but I was surprised that one loaded.

Is this the one that was just listed on Ebay? There was a minty looking one there too!

Yes it is the one from Ebay? It was only a hour drive for me to pick it up when I got it home cleaned all the pots and it all work fine. I've been looking for a long time for a Ventures model amp and when I saw this amp I had to have it.

Very nice! Can you provide the serial number? I'd like to add it to my collection of serial numbers for all Mosrite amps that I've seen so far.

Is there any way of knowing how many BG1000 and BG500 amps that where made? Or can you go by the serial number on the back of the amp my BG500 serial #678 I tried checking with Weber on the serial # on my JBL D130F 15" (36585) and they told me to check with JBL of which I did and they said they checked there data with no luck. And am I right in saying the amps were made between 66-67 or maybe 68?
