Solid state.
These were built between 1984 and 1988. Its 200w with a 1x15 (Celestion I think) speaker and controls for;

[list]
[*]Sensitivity (Master Volume)
[*]6-band Graphic Equalizer
[*]Boost
[*]X-Over
[*]Bass Volume
[*]Treble Volume
[/list]

On the back panel are outputs for effects (send and return), an extension cab (I've had another 1X15 on top, gives a really wicked old skool sound) and for Bi Amp mode (Treble/Bass/Post/Pre).

These are very rare, I've not been able to find much more info online, but there is some here;

It's in reasonable condition for its age, a couple of small tears in the tolex at the back of the amp and a couple of plastic corners missing (available for £5.99 per pack on evil bay). It includes a footswitch for the boost control.

I've owned it for about 5 years, used it for gigging and practice and never had any problems.

Why am I selling it? It's very heavy - the place we practice at now is up two flights of stairs so its been replaced with a lighter model before my sciatica comes back!
The good news is it's on wheels and I fitted new ones about 6 months ago.

Due to the weight its not really suitable for posting so cash on collection would be best - I'm in Plymouth, Devon.


p.s. The black furry object in the bottom left of the first pic is my cat (what is it about cats and amps?) but she isn't included in the sale!
