okay, so we saw the "psychedelic Machine" on eBay with the Electra brand and old logo....
here's a bass amp, a Brand that SLOM distributed in the 60's, with the Model name of Electra...

That seems rather low key, doesn't it?

I like the natural wood cab as opposed to tolex.

Those were most likely made by Valvco who also made amps for the mail order companies like Sears and Montgomery Ward. They are fairly collectible. I suspect it had a covering of some type that has been removed.

Valco is the name you're thinking of.

This looks like a good resource:
