I searched for this cab for nearly 35 years. Eventually finding one in London and collected it on 8/12/22. I hadn’t thought about getting the matching head until a mate planted the seed in my (ASD) head. The Sod! 🤣 I managed to find this fully working one at a reasonable price and got it delivered almost a year to the day of the cab. It’s good to have the matching pair, I have a penchant for big old rigs and this goes into the ‘keeper’ collection now.

A few more pictures from Monday.

Thanks, it’s the MC924 (Musician) I love it.

@Ghost Rideris the current owner. It used to belong to Tim (in the pictures) until last week

“ELECTRIC GUITAR 4 str. semi-acoustic art. 426 r PCT RSFSR 508-75 MAA 1987 The price is 125 rubles. 197061, Jlerun pa, 33 ECCA he is Chapaeva, 15 r. coch T. Lenuprizdat” The body is a strange ‘composite’ type plastic. As you says It doesn’t look plastic, it also doesn’t feel or sound it. 30” scale The translation of the company name is Marya or Maria.

It’s a stunning instrument. Ive lusted after one since the mid/late 80s. Got this one in April from Reading. It’s a keeper.

Mike and I met at Woodall Services last week. I’d collected two AC30 chrome stands for Mike on the way down. Mike brought up an ACC 406 and Ampeg V6 215. Unfortunately we didn’t have much time for chats this time but the deal, as ever went smooth with perfect organisation/communication and it was great to see Mike again. I keep threatening to visit his ACC stash on the south coast. Fingers crossed for the warmer days. Highly recommended seller and a Lovely bloke all round.

They have too many versions/places of manufacture/brands and sub brands, to keep track of now. However; This is a Stingray Proper! I’m glad to see all the correct/original design cues on the instrument. I wouldn’t buy their weight saving versions (fender bridge and lightwEight tuners) now based purely on the cosmetics so it’s good to see the actual design on sale again. Not that I’d pay £3k for one either though 🤣

My Peavey AmpKit Link seems to have died. Open earth buzz when it’s in. No audio going in and very low and noise audio (play along tracks)coming out. I’m presuming it’s a support issue as it’s about 20 years old now. Any personal recommendations for a similar/upgrade one? TIA

They’re a very strange/specific design so apparently not logical for a tech to suss the issues. Power wise I’m sure it’s easier than most issues but their transformers have multi taps on them so again not easiest to source if it need’s replaced

My 1979. I’ve had it for around 5 years. It’s had the nut changed for a white one since the picture was taken. Purely cosmetic/originality reasons.

Do you still have the 3620s? If so would you be interested in selling one? thanks

It’s hard to say as they used to ‘HH’ badge up manufacturers drivers. Sometimes Fane but often Celestion as well. The original cab is badged at 200 watts but the blown driver that came with it was a cheap/maplins type replacement.
