In the RP100 the P stands for phaser. There was an RD100 with built
in distortion. Mine is single channel (it's got a low and high input),
spring reverb (not very good IMHO), bass and brite boost switches, low,
mid, treble, reverb, phaser rate, phaser level, two levels of preamp
out. I got mine in the local music shop. It was on consignment for
$250 :) I've replaced the grill cover after beating the poor thing half
to death for the last few years. I finally had to replace the original
speaker. I put in a Jensen Vintage - well worth the effort although the
damn thing weighs a ton now.
