Valvetech VAC25 head/blonde with Brimars


Recommended Posts

Posted

It's the amp I swore I'd never sell, but I hardly ever play it since I got my Valvetech 50, so it's "never say never" time.

It's SN 007, but it's had all the updates done to it (i.e. having a midrange knob installed), most recently in December '08, so it barely resembles that original version at all (in fact, I put the chassis into the blonde head box you see, which originally housed the VAC50). Has NOS Brimar big-bottle 6V6s installed with plenty of life left in 'em. Effects loop, no reverb. Includes boost footswitch and additional front panel with logo (blonde with gold piping). Functions flawlessly; excellent condition cosmetically (few if any dings to the head box or faceplate; tolex is peeling away a bit off the rear of the back panel, which tends to happen with these).

Read more about these amps at www.valvetechamps.com

$700 shipped to U.S. destinations only; no international shipping. No Paypal; postal money order or personal check OK (amp ships after funds clear my bank). Also willing to meet halfway (approx. 150 miles).

I could always have Bruce deliver it personally.

How much gain do those Valvetech 50's have? As much as a BoogieMKIII? Or a JCM 800?

Somewhere in between I'd say, closer to MKIII levels.

Keep in mind, though, that the head for sale is the 25-watt 6V6 version. Same gain levels, just not the 50-watt EL34 version.

Why so cheap ?

These are worth at least twice that money in Europe.

Apparently it ain't cheap enough. No one's bought it yet!

Edit: if you can find someone over there willing to pay twice my asking price (or close to it), I think I could get some advice from BadgerDave on how to ship it to Europe and take that plunge.

If you don't mind me asking - what do you have against selling internationally?

Glad it was an esteemed HFCer and not an unkempt KFCer :lol:

This particular HFCer is both, actually.
