Mr. Foxen Posted November 17, 2010 Author Posted November 17, 2010 Gah, should pay attention to my sale threads. Really, this isn't point to point, very few amps advertised as such are, this is turret track, I think it is patented by Dave Green, a hybrid of PCB and turret, so you get pcb durability (if the PCB is done right, it is reliable, failures are usually from flexing due to inadvisable board mount sockets and such) with turret ease of maintenance. Point to point is where the components aren't mounted on a baord, but floating between points where they are connected, so the path is shortest, but you wend up with a scruffy mess that if hard to figure.

Mr. Foxen Posted December 13, 2010 Author Posted December 13, 2010 Bump, offers? got my eye on other toys.
Mr. Foxen Posted January 31, 2011 Author Posted January 31, 2011 Here's a reason for selling this excellent amp bump:
Mr. Foxen Posted February 4, 2011 Author Posted February 4, 2011 Can a mod move this to miscellaneous due to guitar content?
Mr. Foxen Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 Will go £650 if I can score that laney nexus (plus shipping) with it.
Mr. Foxen Posted April 6, 2011 Author Posted April 6, 2011 Traded something else for the Nexus, but some money would still be nice.
Mr. Foxen Posted April 20, 2011 Author Posted April 20, 2011 Bump, will still take the £650, I need to buy me a throne.
Mr. Foxen Posted April 26, 2011 Author Posted April 26, 2011 May entertain silly offers for cash on this for a brief period, try it.
Mr. Foxen Posted May 31, 2011 Author Posted May 31, 2011 (edited) I'll let this blonde one go for £475, I kind of got a deal on it, and I don't need two. The first one blew a valve, but thanks to the awesome design, nothing difficult was damaged and I could rebias it myself: Edited June 27, 2011 by Mr. Foxen
Mr. Foxen Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 Edited to be the one I actually want to sell, reduced price, and I want that barefaced big one bump.

[url="http://mhuss.com/AmpInfo/"]Article here.[/url] [/quote] that is true, in fact fender stopped doing true point to point in 1947 and switched to a turret board type design their after, they still hand wired up to 1985, I would personally rather have a hand wired turret board over true point to point,
Mr. Foxen Posted February 20, 2012 Author Posted February 20, 2012 This amp is so long gone, but Shockwave has another one on the block: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/167096-fsft-ashdown-peacemaker-custom-100-handbuilt-uk-100-watt-all-valve-amp-now-reduced-to-l500/page__p__1542601__hl__peacemaker__fromsearch__1#entry1542601
