Carlsbro magazine advertisement from 1981 which features Gang of Four, specifically Andy Gill endorsing the Stingray: http://www.ebay.com/itm/retro-magazine-advert-1981-CARLSBRO-gang-of-four-/360382210692

Andy can be seen playing a Carlsboro Stingray with built-in chorus on The Old Grey Whistle Test. Possibly called the "Professional" model this Stingray had both built-in chorus and reverb. You can tell this because the effects section of the amp has four distinct knobs on the far right hand side.
