SOLD my Roland Bolt 30!

This is from the only line of valve amps Roland ever made- straight from the 80's, made in Japan.

It's got a fantastic clean channel, a dual-control drive channel that's Boogie-esque but can clean up nicely with some tinkering, a shared 3-band EQ and a spring reverb that's fantastically drippy with a short decay.

Condition is fantastic! It was basically a bedroom piece before I bought it a couple of months ago. It has the original manual and vinyl cover.

I upgraded the speaker to an Eminence Governor which gives it plenty more low-end punch and volume. 

I use it as a clean pedal platform and it's great. Surprisingly the break up on the clean channel is fantastic! It's a pretty portable little thing too- nowhere near as bulky as a Hot Rod or similar 1x12 amps. Japanese build quality is top and to be honest you just don't see these around too much. This is a perfect solution for an amp you can use at home but also gig without an issue.

I'm asking £170 NOW £160 collection from Wolverhampton/Birmingham

    Surprised this hasn’t been snapped up. They were brilliant little combos and this one looks super clean. If I lived nearer i’d have taken it.
