Hi, up for sale is this magnificent Hartke Kilo 1000 watts amp. In my opinion, it's easily as good, if not better, than any valve amp I've owned or played through (Ampeg, Aguilar etc). It gives you all the power you need and puts you in control of your sound - coming complete with an overdrive, compressor and 10-band graphic equaliser. I've only used it a couple of gigs - and I'm including a footswitch (details below). Reason for sale? No gigs and I need the money, but I'll be gutted to see it go.

The amp is in excellent condition and perfect working order. As you'll see from one of the pictures, there's a small scratch on the top - unnoticeable on stage or in a rack.

Here's the write-up and specifications from the Samson site:

"The Kilo delivers 500 watts at 2 ohms of power per side in stereo mode, and a massive 1,000 watts at 4 ohms in the bridged mono mode. To sculpt your sound, the Kilo has an all-tube class-A preamp, and logically arranged tone controls.

The amp offers a classic tone stack three-band EQ, with Hartke's variable Shape circuit. For additional tone shaping, there is a 10-band graphic equalizer, as well as selectable Deep and Brite EQ curves.

To add some "dirt" to your sound, there is a variable tube Overdrive circuit, and to round out the dynamics, there is a fast and articulate Compressor circuit.

To connect your amplifier to speaker cabinets, the Kilo has both Speakon® and 1/4-inch output jacks. It also provides an abundance of connections and signal routing features, including multi-point direct output switching, stereo Effects Loop, front and rear panel tuner outputs and footswitch jacks to remotely control the Mute, Overdrive, EFX, and EQ functions.

Not only does it pack optimal tone control and more than enough power to drive any cabinet, the Kilo's rugged design is perfect for life on the road. Its solid 3-rackspace construction, solid die cast front panel and oversized handles make the Kilo an eminently road-worthy."[list]

Also included:[list]
[*]Stage Line FS-202 footswitch - enabling you to switch on/off the mute and overdrive, or EQ (graphic equaliser) and effects loop. I found it useful when changing playing styles between songs - such as going from fingers to plectrum. One stomp would engage the equaliser, giving me more bottom end when playing with a plectrum.

Well luckily pay day shouldn't be TOO far off. I'm almost hoping it doesn't get snapped up before then so you get to experience this beast :D
