Details

This is an extremely sad day for me.:crying: I really need money to pay off some medical bills and credit card debt. I have a power amp and pre so this unfortunately has to go.
This is in very good condition with a clean bill of health, recently serviced in March of this year. It was brought to a very well known amp tech in my area and he worked on the eq board re-soldering loose connections, replaced 2 tube sockets and reformed tube sockets. SKB not included.

This will now come with 1 set of matched tubes:

6 month old 6 EHX 6550's
6 month old 4 EHX 12ax7's

I will also throw in a brand new set of slow-blo fuses, ( ALL TUBES WILL BE WRAPPED INDIVIDUALLY AND MARKED BY SOCKET WHEN TAKEN OUT)

The top cover has some scratches and is missing 6 screws (see pics) that is how i received it when purchased. This is by far the best sounding amp I have ever owned and quite honestly going to beat myself up for letting this go. Times are tough and I am sure you are all aware. I am asking:


$825 w/EHX 6550 set shipped
$750 Local pickup
Shipped Conus only Lower 48 only


Send me a pm if interested!

Forgot to mention that I believe this to be from 1984. I am not 100% sure but that is a date that I have found in the amp.

depends really on what people want. These are a little more rare , you have 2 options to use 6-6550's or 6-6l6's where as the 400+ uses 12 6l6s only. There is of course a difference in wattage. But at the end of the day it depends on what people are looking for; for tone

I've looked all over on line but could not find the wattage information. Do you know the wattage of the amp offhand?

With the 6550 tubes u run about 220 watts with a cleaner deeper bass tone IME. With the 6l6 tubes about 180 watts, with a more overdriven tube sound at higher volumes. I have not tried the 6l6 tubes tho as they are brand new and i havent owned this amp for that long
