Cade Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) Hi All, [I know this is primarily a guitar amp, but I thought I'd chance it here in case someone was interested!] My good friend is selling a couple guitar amps to pay for some work on his car. One of these is a lovely old Burman Pro 502. We don't know it's history except that he bought it from a guy he knew about 6 years ago and it he's barely used it since. In all fairness, he didn't know what a special amp he'd bought. It seems to be in full working order except the reverb doesn't work -- turning it up full just adds hiss. I've taken a good few pictures (sorry about the low quality -- it was low light and all I had was my phone camera) which should inform you to its cosmetic condition. If you need any other information, please give me a shout and I'll do what I can to ferret out the info. The amp is situated in Glasgow, UK but my friend is willing to ship to anywhere in Europe and N. America and will work with the buyer to ensure it's safe arrival and for a fair shipping price (cost only). The price is £400 ono. Please post here or PM me to discuss. Best Regards, Cade.

Cade Posted February 23, 2011 Author Posted February 23, 2011 Also, just wanted to add that the backplate is only missing in the photos so I could check what valves were in there and to take photos. It has since been put back on. Cheers!
Cade Posted February 23, 2011 Author Posted February 23, 2011 CrazyKiwi: what tells you it's an early one? I'm loving finding out about these amps in all the threads on here! :-)
Kiwi Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 The earlier amps have red transformers and the script logo, while the later ones have a sans serif logo and orange transformers with slightly higher input gain. No serial database was kept so I couldn't tell you how old it is unfortunately.

Cade Posted March 27, 2011 Author Posted March 27, 2011 Just a wee bump: this is still available. Had it out over the weekend and worked a treat. It's going to make someone very happy ...
Cade Posted April 18, 2011 Author Posted April 18, 2011 Now sold as of this weekend. Thanks for all the interest!
