Thanks,

Any amp like this of value(if real) has a provenance of ownership.

The previous few owners should be contacted to verify the claim.

Listen carefully to any story of how this person came to own this amp and decide if you believe, or just wish it could be true.

I also don't see the original owners manual.

Of course play the amp! How does it sound?

You should be buying it because the tone is worth the money, not as a potential investment to resell.

This TW is a clone.

The Anna has no date stamp. The logo is wooden. The the chassis is the wrong material finish.

I can probably find a few dozen more things if I click on the pics but no it's not real. It may still sound good but not a wreck.
