Mr. Foxen Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Popular sort of amp so safe enough ebaying it. Probably do well to have it given a once over and sell working though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBS_freak Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 70s Silverface in moderate condition with a bit of attention needed usually realise 500-600 quid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crez5150 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 [quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1328003656' post='1520036'] 70s Silverface in moderate condition with a bit of attention needed usually realise 500-600 quid. [/quote] Cheers for that. It's exactly a 1970 model with silverface ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 The valves are probably ok, but the caps might need replacing. Switch it on and see what happens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3below Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Bump - No demand for these at all, very unpopular, not musical sounding at all and just not loud enough, however I could be persuaded to give it a home other than wife would kill me. Will be an excellent g**** amp for someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I play with 3 guitarists who play vintage Fender Twin Reverbs and know several more who use one. I'd get it serviced for £50 which would add another £100 at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crez5150 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 I'll check out the caps.... it's sounds like a valve on the way out..... sound breaks up pretty badly when guitar is played through it. Is there anyway of telling which valve it is likely to be? Sorry I'm not really up to speed on valve technology blimey looks like there is 12 valves in this thing.... might be expensive... :o0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joegarcia Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 If it's a 1970 than it will be worth slightly more than the later ones (like mine) with the pull out master volume. See if the master volume pot pulls out. I bought a 1975 one recently and the previous owner had had it for over ten years without realising it pulled out for drive.
