Back in the 80s I lusted after one of these but technology has moved on. It's probably got scratchy pots and is a bit scruffy so I wouldn't think you'd get more than £70 (and that may be pushing it).

Maybe one of these guys would like to take it off your hands http://basschat.co.uk/topic/66952-old-school-hh-amp/

thanks for your help gjones. the pots are a little scratchy but not as bad i thought they would be given its age but yes it is a little scruffy aswell so i think i will just put it on ebay with a starting price of £50 and see what happens. thanks

FWIW the Bass Machines were designed with guitar in mind as well. A guitarist I used to play with loved the sound of it through a 4x12 and swore he was going to get one. Obviously won't be everyone's cup of tea though.

i did have a play on it with my guitar but it sounded a bit muddy to me so i have listed it on ebay and started the bidding at £55 and it seems to be generating quite a bit of interest already.
