There was a popping issue on early models but this has since been rectified and there is a tech note to mod older models. (and they all have the 7 pin cable, it's the 60 that has the jack)
This 2nd hand unit is technically out of warranty but as it's a known issue we can supply a replacement reverb pan FOC. Just get the dealer to give us a call with the serial.
The only other issue has been bad valves which often manifests itself in hiss and high levels of noise. We generally swap out the valves for Groove Tubes 12AX7-R or -M if they come back for this and that sorts it. Unfortunately in today's world it's hard to get enough good valves in the quantity we need! I know there is progress with some of the Chinese factories and we're working hard with them to improve both the overall quality of what they supply and the longevity of the valves.

My mistake, I was sure I'd seen a 22 with the jack too but I must be wrong!

Worth asking though. Let me know if you have any problems.
Thanks for the positive comments!

If you get one, do so second hand and spend some cash working out it's problems and you'll have a solid amp. I got mine as a gigging amp for ease of transport/weight.
About 4 on the clean channel volume is where it starts to loose clean headroom, interestingly that's about as loud as I normally play at gigs and practice so it works quite well, sounds better with single coils in that application though IMO.
It's pretty much a Deluxe Reverb with the most versitile gain channel thanks to the EQ. I personally think they should have kept the vibrato and reverb from the DRRI but that would probably dwindle the sales of DRRI's.
still its not loud enough to bother me when playing so i can live with it.
Also happy to see the cable for the fs is a custom one the previous owner had built by a very good local builder. Happy with that.
