60-70w (2x Tungsol 6550)
2.5 channel, zero loss FX Loop, 2 footswitchable master volumes. Loads of switchable boosts.
Drive channel is based around an 800/hot plexi that can be boosted up to soldano levels of gain with a footswitchable extra gain channel.
Clean is based on a twin.
Switchable master volumes, gain boost, and mid boost.
Oh, and it's bright yellow.
£600 cash? I've dropped this somewhat, as i may have set my expectations too high at first. Custom/boutique gear is bloody hard to price, regardless of the quality!
Very interested in trades though... id put cash in towards a deal, too...
I would look at trades on the following:

Full details of the amp below:
I'm selling this as i'm downsizing.
I got it second hand, and i've had it back to Martin since I bought it to have it significantly changed. There's all sorts of cool mods and features, I'll try my best to explain all below!
It's recently had a once over from Dan Holmes (Danplifier/4114 Effects).

The clean is a typical fender clean sound. Stays clean up to 4-5, but you can get it to break if you push it. Handles pedals well, too.
Drive is capable of plexi crunch through to 800. If you push the level and the gain it can get quite lairy, but it also does a really nice crunch. Very versatile. There's a footswitchable boost on the drive channel that brings in another gain stage; taking it from anything to hot 800 up to Soldano levels of gain. Purely a gain boost, doesnt affect the volume.
Footswitchable mid boost - What it says on the tin really. Kick in a footswitch or flick a switch on the front of the amp, and it gives you a whacking great load of mids on your drive channel. This works on drive and boost channels.
'Fat' switch - this isnt footswitchable; just on a switch on the front of the amp. As you'd expect, it just fattens out the low end of the drive channel. It's not stupid, it just makes it feel a little bigger. Suits certain cabs and rooms... Really useful.
So there are 4 switches in total; all controlled by 2 stereo footswitch jacks on the back of the amp:
1st relay controls Channel (Clean/Drive) and Master Volumes (1/2)
2nd relay controls gain boost (On/Off) and mid boost (on/off).
2nd relay controls gain boost (On/Off) and mid boost (on/off).
Fitted with a tubetown zero loss fx loop. Just like the metro one, only cheaper!
It comes with a padded cover (as seen in the photos)
I think i've covered about everything! Any questions; just ask...
I'm based in West Yorkshire. To be honest i'd rather do a deal face to face! I'm happy to travel to arrange a meet (within reason). Also happy to arrange for people to come and trial it.
I could be persuaded to ship it for a cash deal, but it would cost a fair bit as i'd want to go overboard with the packaging, and also to use a proper courier.
Any questions; please get in touch!
Thanks
Thanks

It's been pimped a bit since you had it though, same power section but an extra gain stage in the front end. Covers prettymuch anything Plexi/800/hot800/soldano. Clean is bloody lovely, too
