Fabulous sounding early ?60s valve guitar amp. Wonderful tremolo
I think the term auctioneers use for the condition of this amp is ??player??s grade??. I??m aware there are plenty of other amps like this on eBay, (listed as rare!) so this is accordingly priced a bit more competitively imho
The back panel of this amp was previously lost and I have made a new one from 9mm plywood
This amp has been properly serviced-new electrolytic caps, mustard / wima coupling caps, mullard yellow ... more

I've been asked quite a few questions about this amp
So let me clarify
It doesn??t have the ??bells and whistles?? of a modern amp
It has two inputs one sensitive eg mic and one for pickups. A single tone control. There is some background hum, this is common on old amps, if you turn it up it will overdrive and distort
So why would you buy this amp, simply modern amps don't sound the same so if you want something with a classic vintage sound then this is for you
This is a ... more
