Definitely Japanese. It has the same electrolytic cans that were in all the Sansuis and the output transformers look Japanese. It will be a decent little amp, but many of the Japanese budget amps had some very serious compromises in the circuits. At least the ones I have worked on. They were built to a price point. The pots are usually sealed though and the iron is pretty good. The Sherwood S5000 will run rings around it though, but it also costs a lot more..... If you can buy if $100 - $150 sure...but I wouldn't pay much more. Save your money for a Sherwood or a good Scott
