------=_NextPart_000_0310_01C61F6B.7E363000--Yes you can. I think the manuals, esp. the service manual, and the
perfect condition help. I already had someone trying to buy it
early.
Hey don't feel bad, I sold my original LA-2A for 450.00 back
in 1985. Guess I should have kept it a while...
Here's the amp:

It's the Blues Star. What a tone!

>> TCI actually use a SansAmp Bass DI with decent results, but for something more
versatile I'd look at ebay and try to find an SWR SM-400 bass head. Tube
preamp stage and a parametric EQ that will give you a pretty wide range of
sounds. A bassist in a band I played in used one and we had very good luck
with it as a direct amp as well.
