Location: Corning, NY | This is a fantastic 30 watt EL84 1x12 amp in black/silver. The oversized trannies and high power handling speaker (80 watts) allow it an amazing clean channel for an EL84 amp. It's clean all the way up with single coils, and busts up nicely about 3/4 volume with hummers. The drive channel is classic EL84 but creamier and not Vox brittle breakup. It has nice harmonic content and is very Marshall-like with the drive cranked up, but can also be very subtle. The effects loop is a pre-amp out/power amp in and you can send the preamp out alone without disabling the power stage.
I have to take pics yet, but mine is black with sliver grill cloth, less than a year old, in perfect shape and never gigged. The only mod is I installed larger rubber feet for better isolation from the floor.

Why sell or trade it if it's so great? Well, I'm a tremolo junkie and I've come to the conclusion I prefer on-amp tremolo. I also recently caught the vintage Ampeg bug with a Gemini I that handles the same output range as the US Masters.
Sale price is $600+shipping ConUS. I'll eat the PayPal fees.
The only trades I'm interested in would be and acoustic/electric resonator, a Tele Thinline, or a lower wattage (15 watts and under) vintage amp with reverb and tremolo, preferable Ampeg (Reverberocket, Rocket, Jet, etc.).
