The Magnatone 411 is a small 1960s practice amp from the Estey-era line. High and low inputs feed a Volume control ahead of a 6AV6 triode preamp, followed by a Tone control. A single 6GW8/ECL86 does double duty: its triode half is the tremolo oscillator with an Intensity control and footswitch, and its pentode half is a cathode-biased single-ended output into an 8-inch speaker. A solid-state full-wave rectifier powers it.
