Genz Benz El Diablo 100/50w All Valve Head *SOLD* - £275

andy1839

So now I don't play out anymore I've decided that a lot of gear can be moved on. 

I bought this as a backup to my JVM210H, but that proved very reliable so this never left the car boot.  It is in excellent condition and comes with the soft cover and footswitch. 

£285

Based in York, collection or a mutual meet is preferred.

I used to tour one of these and it was excellent in every way. Bargain price considering these were £1200 new!

Cheers, it hasn't had a hard life, it just sits there reminding me that I don't play in a band anymore :-( 
It's certainly built for touring, really well built and sounds decent at low volume too.
