For sale FS: Early 70's Ampeg V4B, super clean

Free

Details

As described in the title. I'm sure that if you're reading this, you're familiar. This is a non-master volume early 70's Ampeg V4B. Honestly, it's one of my favorite amps of all time and I don't want to part with it, but I don't use it anymore and I can't let it sit here and collect dust.

Physically the amplifier is in almost perfect condition except for the changed power switch which appears much more shiny than the polarity and standby switches due to the fact that it was replaced roughly four years ago when I purchased the amp.

Tubes have life left but are not new. They've been in there for a few years but this was always my backup, so they haven't seen intensive wear. This amp has never failed me in any way. I know many V4's have reliability issues and I have never seen even quiver in its performance.

Power cable has been replaced with a three prong power cable, so you won't get shocked like crazy at the mic.

Last service was at the last retube, my trusty professional tech let me know that she was clocking in between 120 and 130 watts RMS. Compared to other V4's and V4B's of this era, she's loud and slightly bright, but in a positive cut-through-the-mix way.

These pictures are off my phone and they aren't too bad. If you want high res pictures I can bust out the D3100, feel free to ask.

$750 shipped
Tubes will be removed and packed separately due to the fact that I do not trust any shipping company to properly ship a tube amp in any way, shape, or form. I've had bad luck in the past.

No trades please.

Comments

I have the guitar version for my guitars, (it has reverb). It's a great amp. For those who don't know, according to "Tone Quest" the metal knob version of this amp is the better version. THIS IS THE BETTER ONE.
