Now sold.

Starting listing at £375 which I think is fair but am open to reasonable offers so try me 😁.

I'm selling the Genz Benz Shuttlemax which has been my back up amp since I bought it in from a fellow BCer back in 2014.

In that time it's hardly been out of the gig bag and i don't actually remember ever gigging it...

Why? Because my main gigging amp is a Genz Benz Shuttle 6.2 which has always been plenty loud enough for the gigs I've played and reliable enough that I've never needed to use its big brother.

I've just fired it up to check it out and everything works. Genz have a reputation for quality and reliability and this is no exception. There was a little bit of crackling from one of the pots but that's disappeared as the pot has been turned through its travel.

Now that's sorted it works perfectly and has an immense, clean sound through the FET channel and an equally big and very shapeable sound through the Tube channel.

This is effectively two 600w amps with two preamp stages and one master volume. It goes from 300w into 8ohms to 1200w into two 4ohm (or 4 X 8 ohm cabs). At full chat, people in France start calling to complain!

Overkill for me though so it should go.

The amp comes with the power lead, footswitch and gig bag. The gig bag came to me with a bust zip and the faux leather on the handle has split and been bound with gaffer tape.

The amp itself came with a couple of light scuffs on the top panel and a small mark on the front left corner - I've shown it in the pictures.

I'm in Cleethorpes and you're welcome to come and try it out before going for a paddle and a donkey ride. Alternatively, I can package it securely and send by insured courier within the UK or I'm happy to meet somewhere mid-way. PM me to discuss options.

As to trades - I’m not really looking for basses (well, maybe a nice light Precision) or cabs but there’s a world of other stuff that might just be of interest - pedals, preamps, recorders, etc - so let me know what you got.

Thanks for looking. Any questions, please send me a PM.
