Airline GVC-9046A - Normal preset

Close · 70/100 confidence. Most values readable. Minor gaps filled by inference from similar circuits.

The Airline GVC-9046A is a companion model to the GVC-9045A, sharing a similar solid-state circuit but configured in a different cabinet format, likely a head and extension cabinet arrangement. Both were manufactured in Japan for Montgomery Ward and use the same basic transistorized preamp and output topology. The GVC-9046A targets intermediate players wanting more volume and projection than a small combo can deliver. Like its sibling, it features two-channel operation with independent EQ on each channel.
