WTB: Cornford Hellcat or MK50II Head, Have Suhr Badger 30 to trade.

xJonnysixstring

Hi Guys, Loving my Badger but still wanting for two channels, I have been more than tempted by Friedman but can't justify the spend to get 2 channels, Then it hit me, The Hellcat! 2 channels, Hot Rodded EL84 tones thats what I need!

So does anyone have one they want to shift? 

SunDevil

One on eBay a couple of days back FWIW - search for 'boutique amp' brought it up..

xJonnysixstring

Cheers bud, Not sure I fancy getting an amp shipped from sweden, Shame as its a great price!

SunDevil

Ahh - well excuse the merciless plug then - not EL84 based but touch and tone to die for (and as a former Double Cornford owner ..shock horror ..actual product support!)

Cleans are very EL84 rich and more EL34 punch in OD

Knocked a Hurricane clean out of the park and not as terrifying loud as a Hellcat

After something a little more "Rock" Im afraid, But thanks anyhow.

You could perhaps ask over at the Cornford forum.  There is still a bit of activity there from time to time.  That's how I found my Carrera, which is the sweetest amp.  I've had it since February 2013 and it completely and instantly killed my amp GAS.

Cornford hellcat. Brilliant amp but I've had the 2x12 combo which helped to make it one of the heaviest amps I've owned

xJonnysixstring

Yep have lugged one of those out of a gig, stupidly heavy, hence now going down the head/cab route

@Jonnysixstring There's one in ll11
Facebook cornford amp owners forum. He wants a swap for a similar quality amp. I was tempted to offer my Hurricane but I'm not travelling that far to satisfy what might be a bad idea.
Edit: he's now changed it to £900 or trades.
