    Default FS: Orange AD30R (sold) & Matamp 1224 Mk II with 2x12 cab (Cardiff) - now with pics!

    Hi all

    Two classic amps for sale, one an Orange AD30R model, with Celestion Century Vintage speakers, and the Orange dustcover, and the other a Matamp 1224 Mk 2 with matching Matamp 2x12 slant cab, both in British racing green leather. Dust covers included again. Reason for sale is that i'm downsizing after a recent addition to the family (proper family).

    Both amps are in good working order. The Orange has a few nicks associated with being a 14 year old amp, but nothing serious. The Matamp is in excellent cosmetic condition, only a couple of very very minor marks.

    I'm based in Cardiff, so you're welcome to try them.

    Asking £450 for the Orange, but i'm open to offers for the Matamp duo as i'm interested potentially in any smaller interesting amp heads that could roll with a 1x12 cab (nothing high gain) for a part-ex. Other than that, if it's a straight cash deal, feel free to ping me an offer... would like about a grand.

    Pics to follow...

    Matamp 1224 :drool:

    Can it do vox cleans? What valves does it run?

    I would seriously consider trading my cornford hurricane for the head if the distance issue could be overcome. Postage is a no-no.

    The 1224 does everything and runs any valves, a buddy of mine had one new from the factory, a serious piece of kit.....

    Yep, it's a bloody good amp! Currently running with a quad of JJ 6V6 valves, although i've got a quad of Ei 6CA7 valves also depending on what flavour you like. I don't play anywhere big enough to justify it any more so i'd sooner someone have it who is going to use it.

    I've got an Orange AD15 which i'm keeping, and a modelling board for any flavours I need, so I only ever fire the 1224 up at home every so often. I've got a bad back too, so am using the AD15 more frequently... hence my looking for a small head to go with that if I felt the urge for something different.

    I love my Orange Rockerverb mk1, but that Matamp is lovely! Any interest in doing a deal seeing that you like Orange? I'm Bristol.

    Hi Parker

    Sorry mate, the RV's not for me. Great amps, but not my cup of tea! Really after something lower wattage and cleaner / more flexible.

    Rooster - thanks for the offer mate, but the AD15 scratches my Orange itch! TT's aren't bad, but again, not for me.
