Had a DC friend pick it up. The amp is an '77 Ampeg G-18 or similar. The guitar is in very solid shape but dusty.

Just took delivery. The amp is in basically excellent condition and sounds wonderful in its own small-speaker, solid-state way.

The guitar itself is almost like-new. There is one visible ding and the finish is unscratched most places. Plenty of wear on the fretboard but it came right back up with fretboard conditioner.

One minor issue: the neck MMK seems weak. It just doesn't punch like my other '84 Phoenixes. I'm working on fussing around with pickup height to address this.
