FT/FS: My 1973 Silverface Twin Reverb for a Fender 59 Bassman LTD

[Szorn]

Hey all,

Deciding to jump ship with my amp, I have a need for tweed.

Had the Twin for a few years, everything's working. It's had a full service with a full set of output valves, new capacitors and a preamp valve for the reverb driver. I'll upload pictures for anyone genuinely interested. 100 watt, original drivers and tank, cosmetically sound with castors and tilt back legs.

Would be willing to sell for £900 ono.



Apologies for the photo, it's the only one I had on my computer as the amp is currently at my bands practice space in Barnsley. Will be uploaded more photos soon.

Also, here is the service report from my technician who carried out the servicing on the amp.

Anyone interested?

Pictures do the trick, as does location of the amp. Occasionally sound clips. Lots of info garners lots of interest.

Ah, thought I'd listed my location on to show up on my posts. Will change that now. I'm in Leeds btw.
