I just purchased a TR-50 this weekend that is in 9.9 out of 10 condition. The tolex is in excellent shape - only thing that is wrong are a few scratchy pots.
I cannot find any information out about this amp so far. I did find some information online about what appeared to be a TR-50B, which looks to be a bass-guitar version with one 18".
Does anyone on this forum know anything about the TR-50's (e.g. typical problems, dates of manufacture, etc.)?

Thanks for the information. The only thing that is missing from the TR-50G I just purchased is the footswitch.
I've not been able to find any replacement footswitches that will work. Does anyone know where I may be able to get a footswitch that will work with the TR-50G?

Your TR50G may not have been originally equipped with a footswitch. The TR50 Series Amplifiers had a couple of Optional Accessories available including the footswitch and heavy duty black covers made of fabric backed vinyl textured material.
