SOLD: MJW Roadstar 18 1x12 Combo with Power Scaling and Reverb

Bought this about a year ago when Martin sold it as a special on the forum.

It's the one on the left (can get better pics on request)

Selling as I'm not really playing at the moment and I'm trying to make some room.

The man himself had this to say about it:

"It's a Roadstar 18, with the standard variable gain boost, selectable by the front panel switch. In addition to this, it is fitted with Power Scaling, and digital reverb.

The cabinet is a "Cabs by Chris" medium combo cab, not one I've made myself, but as you'll know Chris' cabs are excellent. It's  small and light, and easy to carry around for rehearsals, or takes up little room at home. It's not as beefy sounding as my normal cab, but then it is a lot easier to move around. Horses for courses.

The speaker fitted at the moment is a Celestion G12T-100, a good all-round speaker, and importantly it has a very linear response, sounding great with half a Watt going through it as it does the full wound-up 20 Watts.

The amp makes an ideal home practise or recording amp, as the volume/gain/fat switch/boost/Power Scaling arrangement gives you a huge range of tones available at any volume right down to whisper level; varying levels of preamp and power stage overdrive. The reverb adds a little space for home use.

Comes complete with a snug fitting Roqsolid cover."

I'd like £450 for it + delivery (I think it would have been about £1000 as a standard order).

SOLD!

You'll regret selling that!

Convert the loft, create some room, keep it for a few months until you decide it's time to start playing again

I may do.

It would be perfect for your new music room

From what I've heard of them, an MJW would be rather nice, and a definite upgrade on the poxy old Tech21 thing that I've got.


But, moved house = mortgage


Guitar funds = approaching zero.

It's a lovely thing and you are welcome to try it at my gaff.

Where are you based? Heard a lot about these amps but never got to try one.

I'm in Suffolk

They are very impressive amps.

It's a stupidly low price for what a good amp it is. I don't think you are really losing anything in quality compared to a LazyJ/Friedlman/Red Plate/Insert boutique brand here amp.
