Astro

Model 5P

Single Channel - 2.5 Watts RMS
This example has seen better days but it had to be included here just so you can check out that wild grille design. Yes, that's factory!

Camaro

Concord

Eaton's

Model E90-2

Two Channel - 45 Watts RMS
Eaton's was once one of Canada's biggest retailers and marketed Garnet manufactured amps under many brands including Lancer, Vagabond and Viscount. The example shown here has unfortunately had the front panel replaced with metal mesh and that's where its emblem resided.

Genesis

Gibson

Lab Series 2

That's right, Garnet made amps for none other than US guitar giant Gibson. But before you get too excited you should know that these were all solid state amps that followed in the footsteps of Gibson's first foray into solid state, the original Lab Series developed in conjunction with Moog. The amps did achieve one moment of fame however as a Garnet manufactured Gibson amp is featured in the movie "Back to the Future". Check out the scene where Marty and his band audition for the teachers.

GKI

Granada

D15TR

Single Channel - 7 Watts RMS

Harmony

Hohner

For a time Garnet was involved in a marketing agreement with Hohner which resulted in models like the Garnet/Hohner BTO shown here as well as other Garnet models being produced and adorned with this merged brand emblem.

Hyland

Model G100 & G212 Speaker Cab

Impact

Imperia

Lancer

Model E90PA

Two Channel - 45 Watts RMS
This example has a cost cutting paper on plastic emblem but many were produced with a very nice chromed plastic logo. It is believed that the Lancer brand was used by Eaton's and many Lancer models are exact duplicates of Garnet products. Examples of a Lancer Mach 5 Reverb, Lancer Pro and Lancer Lil' Rock (shown here at right) have been confirmed.

Lero

Model XLII

Single Channel - 2-5 Watts RMS
Basic two knob student amp.

Mann

Model D200TD

Single Channel - 75 Watts RMS
A favorite among stencil collectors the Mann brand wasn't just about low cost student amps but included deluxe models like this dual EL34 powered head based upon the Garnet Pro Super series chassis. It is shown here with a matching 1x12/1x15 cab and a beautiful Mann LP Recording lawsuit guitar. The Mann brand was distributed by Great West Music in Vancouver, Canada.

Mansfield

Pan

Model 5P

Single Channel - 2.5 Watts RMS
One of the most common of stencil models, the 5P and its big brother the 10P (5 watts) were powered by one or two 50C5 tubes. These are sometimes called transformerless because there is no input transformer, ie. tubes are powered directly from the AC line. The Pan brand was marketed by Turner Musical Instruments Ltd. of Toronto, Canada

Pax

Solid State

Piper

Model P45B

Single Channel - 20 Watts RMS
1-10"

Pro II

Model G100TR

Two Channel - 50 Watts RMS
Here's a good example of a stencil that is essentially a Garnet. In this case its a Revolution III with a Pro II emblem.
Its not known exactly who marketed this brand but perhaps they were intended for sale with Aria Pro II guitars.

Ram

Raven

Model 10P

Single Channel - 4 Watts RMS
This is another example of the "transformerless" stencils. This one is a two knob 10P with two 50C5 tubes powering an 8" speaker.

Russel

Sears

Model D45R

Single Channel - 20 Watts RMS
This is another large retailer that went to Garnet to provide it with amps to sell in its stores. While the name Sears is most often associated with Silvertone amps (in the US) Garnet produced amps for marketing by the retail giant's Canadian arm, which at the time was known as Simpson Sears.

Sentec

Distributed by Lasar Music Corp. of Brentwood, TN

Stagg

Supreme

Titan

United

Model D90TR

Single Channel - 45 Watts RMS
The United brand was marketed to its customers by United Music Schools. It is another stencil brand that offered more than just student or starter amps. This D90TR is a nice example with 3 tone controls, reverb and tremolo and sports an early United logo. The font was later changed to what was then a more modern style but in retrospect is pretty boring.
