The Magnatone Custom M-2 is the smallest amp of Magnatone's 1963 Custom Series, built for home practice yet carrying the company's varistor pitch vibrato. High, medium and low inputs feed a 7025 stage with Loudness and Tone, then a 12AU7 drives the varistor bridge, with the other 7025 half as oscillator (Speed, Intensity, footswitch). Two 6GW8s act as inverter and push-pull output into an 8-inch speaker.
