[size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]A[size=4]fternoon BC Massive.[/size][/font][/size]

[size=4][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Up for grabs is my (now) back-up head as after many years of excellent service it's been sat unused for the past few months and really should be back in Ampegction stat.[/font][/size]

[size=4][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Calling it lightweight is defo a streeeeeetch by today's standards but it is an ace US-made amp with a mega versatile EQ that has never let me down, and it's now long discontinued so like the best steak is a bit rare.[/font][/size]

Perfect working order with some standard scuffs from usage as to be expected per the photos plus standard blurb and specs below...

[size=4]Collection from SW London due to lack of posting materials or can meet anywhere in the capital or near vicinity within reason, and I'll throw in the this-defo-isn't-supposed-to-be-carried-in-an-ill-fitting-rucksack-but-by-jove-it-works Da Kine backpack that I've been using to lug it around since head-owning-time began.[/size]
