The Magnatone 109 Melodier is a small Magnatone combo from Magna Electronics of Inglewood, California. Two instrument inputs and a microphone input with its own Mic Volume feed one half of a 12AX7, then Tone and Volume into the second half. The output is a push-pull pair of cathode-biased 6V6s, the second driven from a tap off the first one's plate instead of a separate inverter, on a 5Y3 rectifier.
