BG 1000 with two BG cabs! I would love to hear the Fuzzrite blasting thru those 6 15inchers. Ultimate Mosrite cool!

Is this the same as an Award Ventures amp?

Good question. If I was to take a guess, it looks like the same amp,
minus the 'Award' and 'the Ventures Model' badges........ :|

This is indeed a t'drool for picture. I suspect these are three of the several unfinished amps found in the Award factory in Michigan when they went under (as mentioned in Del Halterman's book). We're looking at a BG-1000 (unfinished only in that it is missing the Award and Ventures badges) and two BG-500 cabinets without the heads loaded and also lacking the badges.

So the Award Amps were double branded?

I think Thomas Organ built both Vox and Mosrite amp or distributed them.

What I mean is: Did the Award Ventures Amps also say Mosrite on them. I was under the impression it was a non Mosrite...er ..well venture.

I did some checking of old posts.. I remember now, Mosley sold the name rights.
