A few goodies have recently been added to the site: a superb 1978 Hiwatt 50 watt 2x12" combo, a Polytone Mini-Brute which may appeal to jazzers and a copy of the original Ampeg Portaflex cabinet.

Happy New Year.
Added to the inventory over the past year are some interesting items including a 1972 Laney Supergroup 60 watt 2x12" combo, a tweed Fender Bassman combo from 1990 (first year of reissue) loaded with four alnico Jensen 10s and, if I can get it sorted out, a Burns Orbit 2 transistor combo from 1963.
Added to the selection of speakers is a mid-'60s Gibson Atlas IV cab loaded with a JBL D130F 15" speaker.
Also, for those who like valve swapping, I have an interesting single-ended low-wattage amp with a dual-rectifier option.
I intend to update the site at some point and include more pics of these goodies.

Just added to the inventory is this gorgeous Selmer Diplomat Reverb combo from 1962. This is a 15 watt amp with a Goodmans Audiom 60 12" alnico speaker and features both reverb and tremolo plus separate treble and bass tone controls. It even has the original footswitch!
Also on the list of new gear is a selection of 100 watt heads:
1979 Marshall JMP Master Volume;
1983 Marshall JCM800 Superbass (now sold, Dec 2018);
and my personal favourite,
a 1968 Sound City B100. About as close to an early Hiwatt as you can get. I use it with the Watkins Copicat as a tube driver on the front end and it sounds awesome!
