I wonder if Sonny was the last person to work on it, so they are claiming it is a "sonny" built box.
That's the latest trend of 11 meter 'techs'... Take an amp built by someone else, change a couple caps to make the harmonic-o-meter swing farther to the right, and call it 'your' design.
Sonny built some nice stuff... He mentored under Dennis O for quite some time. Last I heard, he was more into the strip club and biker bar business than he was into 11 meter stuff. Most of his regular customers where looking elsewhere for repairs and new stuff.

It don't look like any "real" human being has bid on this yet. If
they did, they're a fool. Most CBr's I know have better sense than
that. I personally wouldn't give no more that $150 to $200 for it
just for parts.
I guess she or he thinks that nobody knows where those Tennessee
Walkers are made at either. It sure isn't in Michigan like they
claim. What makes me wonder is why the one selling it wasn't killed
by electrocution as dumb as they sound to be.
