MJW Electra (Blonde Bassman) valve head £850

Petepassion

Badcat Cub15R £400(Sold)
The player series, so PCB, not handwired.
   Great EL84 15w combo for little money. Truly a quality sounding amp and only selling as my Matchless lightning sounds slightly better, but it is three times the price!
   Both volume pots are scratchy and at very low volumes can be more fiddly.
   This amp is also very loud for a 15w and will easily hang with our drummer at rehearsal.
   If it doesn’t sell over the next week or so, I’ll probably get my amp tech to sort the pots and re advertise at a more sensible price.
   I’ll add more photos when I get chance.

Reason for sale...I've just acquired another great amp, so something had to go.

ITEMS SOLD

Cornford 1x12 speaker cab £125(withdrawn)

Cornell Romany plus. £800(£850 trade value)(SOLD)
Rift Americana LP. £1200(SOLD)
A 12w valve combo which I would say is closer to at least 15w.
Sounds awesome, classic tweed with a subtle reverb. NB the reverb will start to feedback if dialled passed 3/4.
Can also be attenuated down one step.
Comes with a Roqsolid cover.
The best possible reason for sale...I now own a '66 Vibrolux and a Cornell Romany plus, so all covered on the combo front. Any other combo's are now surplus to requirements...no matter how great they may be.
I allowed £1450 for this in an exchange, so I think £1200 is a very fair price for this brilliant tweed combo.

The 59 Bassman was purchased off here recently. Another great amp, multiple ways to tweak from clean to break up to overdrive. Also makes a great home amp as the volume is very manageable at low levels and still retains a fantastic edge of break up at these levels.
Just had two new output valves fitted.
The presence control currently not working but sounds fine, will get it looked at hopefully in the next couple of weeks.
£500(WITHDRAWN)

I’ll try and upload a vid later.
Will also upload proper photos later.

Dr. Z Maz18 Mk2 non reverb combo.(SOLD)
awesome amp which is relatively light and loud for an 18w combo.
Also comes with the DrZ variable EQ bypass boost footswitch.
Will list on eBay for £1200 in a few days, but £950 to Fretboarders, (I paid £1000)
Happy to arrange postage at cost for this.
Photo's can be seen in the ebay listing...





As great as these two sound, I'm getting older so going to compromise due to the weight and size issues...
1966 Vox AC50 £450(SOLD)
Had loads of work carried out last year including valves and bases.
One of the best valve amps I've ever owned, beautifully organic cleans, takes pedals extremely well and proper rocks when driven hard through a decent attenuator
Orange PPC412 4x12 cab. £200(SOLD)

Hands down the best cab I've ever played through, rubbished my early '80's JCM800 with the G12/65's.
Has 4 Celestion Vintage 30's, black in tolex with the biscuit colour grille.


The Vox and Orange cab can be heard here...

Gorgeous amp - I wish I had the cash to get it back . Perfect all rounder as it nails the Vox thing but can also get very Fendery and even Marshall like with the gain cranked 

Petepassion

Thanks Con, as much as I love it, I’m not using it.
  I’m also putting the VYSE ‘59 Bassman combo up for sale. Bought this a couple of weeks ago, took all three above to the rehearsal room last week to decide which one to keep and the Rift won.

Petepassion

Happy to arrange a courier for the Maz18 at cost.
Can't upload photo's ATM as Imgur is currently down.

Petepassion

Prices dropped and more gear added.
Still can't add pics through Imgur at the moment. I've also subscribed here but currently unable to upload directly for some reason.
