SOLD: Hamstead 60+RT Combo in Cream
Never thought I'd see the day where I move this incredible amplifier on. But truth be told, it's just not getting used.
I wouldn't dream of gigging with it unless we do a nice festival where punters can't spill beer on it, and I've found that I've been recording more and more with my HX stomp to save the faff of micing up.
I also need to get an amp with more gain available to save on taking such a big board out for gigs. Now they're back on the horizon, I've decided to let this go to pastures new.
It's a fabulous amp, plenty of online glowing praise if you search on youtube. Perfect pedal platform, headroom galore too. Switchable down to 20w or 7w.
In great condition, has been used in band practice, but never gigged. Will give it a wipe so it's wonderfully clean. Have the original packaging, I bought this new from Andertons. They're now £2649 new.
Asking £1900 delivered mainland UK. Reduced to £1850 shipped mainland UK, or trade for decent Les Paul with nice PAF's.
Comments
I'll have a gander later at where it starts to go and report back.
So I played around with a variety of settings last night. As it's a master volume amp, even at 60w if going through the High input with the high gain switch on the back, you can adjust the gain to get edge of break up at reasonable volumes. I was getting nice gainy sounds even at 90db.
You can add up to 3.5db of boost too with the voice switch.

Based in Cornwall so either in reasonable travelling/meeting halfway distance, or courier jobbies!
I love my Hamstead but really need more headroom rather than you, needing less!
