I sell this new amp made for me by Martin Whelan (http://www.martamp.com/amps.html) in June 2012. This is been modified in July 2012 by Sebastiano Barbirato (italian Marshall amp guru) (http://www.brbsamplification.com/) to clone better Plexi amp. He replaced output transformer (it was Hammond that is too little for Plexi style amp) with your handmade transformer (you can see in the photos), hammond choke with Marshall choke and few other component of preamp circuit for nail best the Plexi sound.

The amps have on front panel:
Power scaling --> Eliminated because I don't like it (but it is included) and replaced with Master volume pre-phase inverter
Volume --> Master volume post-phase inverter
Presence
Bass
Mid
High
Gain
Boost --> it control the boost that can be add with pedal (included)

Power amp: Danbury
Output transformer: BRBS amplification
Choke: Marshall
Capacitors: ERO/Vishay poly film
Eletrolytics: JJ, F&T o Nichicon
Resistance: Royal Ohm
Pots: Alpha
Power tubes: 2 x Gold Lion KT66
Pre tubes: 3 x Tung Sol ECC83
Watt: 40

The amp is like NEW, the only little defect is a few scratch on front panel, that you can see in the photos, probably when the tech have modified the amp. I insure that are very minimal. I have use it ONLY in the house at minimal volume for 2 months.

I sell it because I use it only in the home and I need to completely different amp.
