floatingjimi Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I have a very nice early 70,s V4B - still on original voltage so you will need a transformer. This has been used as a back up for a later v4bh - due to the reliability of that head - it is not seeing any use. It does have a new set of tubes - 2x12ax7, 1x12au7 1x12ad7 - original 6k11 - spot on, and a set of 7027a,s. I have not see or heard of another original vintage one for a long long time. I also have a 410hle cab - late - USA, but am hoping to hang on to that as a spare. May consider a nice orange 410 cab or other other orange gear as p/x looking for a minimum 750 for the head. It is really that nice and the tone is massive. Tolex is spot on and all chrome corner protectors etc in place.

Jigster Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Are these 100 watters? I'm guessing 4 ohms? Don't know why, just thought it might be Can you tell me a bit about recent servicing etc?
floatingjimi Posted July 4, 2012 Author Posted July 4, 2012 100 watts - switchable 8 - 4 - 2 ohms - serviced very recently at RD amplification and as it says full set of tubes - the 6k11.
Jigster Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 cheers - how's the weight? I have a Bassman 135 so used to WEIGHT!!!, but any idea what?
Nibody Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Oooh these are nice, have a free "love the V4Bs'" bump on me
Pentode Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 [quote name='floatingjimi' timestamp='1341427568' post='1718911'] serviced very recently at RD amplification [/quote] Just like to say that Rob at RD Amplification is a real wizard when it comes to working on these. Good luck with the sale - these are epic amps!
floatingjimi Posted July 4, 2012 Author Posted July 4, 2012 Thanks - yes, great chap - good work - cant knock it
bremen Posted July 5, 2012 Posted July 5, 2012 I had one of these, made a fearsome racket. You'd think it was a lot more than 100W.
