I have a nice Epi Valve Jr. head with jj power tube and mullard preamp tube for sale. vgc less than a year old and light play time. I am including a spare set of tubes(same configuration nib).. these are nice little amps for the money imo and with the tube upgrades is nicer.

the tube sets cost over $50 and you all know what musiciansfiend is selling the head for..$99..

I have another little amp project on the way from ST, and could use the money to help pay for my new op pro for the classical.

$100 shipped/insured conus... offers?

Thanks,

Glenn

be careful when doing the mods Jason.. The Capacitors will knock you on your A$$ or worse if you're not really careful.

the preamp tubes made the most difference in tone, try different values of 12 series tubes till you find a flavor you like..

one of the things I liked about this is you can swap and play with different configurations.

you'll like it, fun little amps and the 2 pairs of tubes are matched sets if you have or get another amp that uses them.
