Its a decent price- the OT change is not great though. Partridges make a lot of the tone in those

rocktrout

your definatly right , i agree 100% . partridges are the mutts nuts . this was the recomended transformer by my  amp tech ! to find a original partridge transformer is hard too and have a big price tag. , it still sounds killer though with this new one, everything else is original in amp. if it does not sell i wont be to upset

Is there a discenable difference in tone after the OT replacement?

rocktrout

the amp was in storage for prob 15 years or more  . it was my dads i just got it fixed a couple of weeks ago. i was there with the tech when he replaced the transformer. he had the amp up on the scope and said it is working perfect and all components are original nothing changed bar the ot and a new plug . i played it and it sounds great . i have not played another hiwatt myself to say i know the difference , i have 2 bad cats and a matchless and the hiwatt definatly has that real boutique hand wired amp tone . and takes pedals really well and is very loud !.

Must bring the Hiwatt 4x12 over to you Mr.Trout to hear that thing in all it's glory before you sell her. Tis life changing....

rocktrout

u should buy this fella be good to see it go to a good home  

breadfan

Could I ask the name of the tech who replaced the transformer?

PhilTQ

Ben- yes, for sure. The Partridges (and don't ask me why) are one of the magical ingredients that form the Hiwatt greatness.

ironically there are 2 for sale on Ebay right now for £150 each.

Apparently they're a bitch to rewind too- there's one guy that specialises in the rewinding of them, but no company really offeres a like fo like- close, but not the same.

PhilTQ

Those 2 on ebay aren't from a Hiwatt they're from a Carlsbro apparently. Guy thinks they are the same, I wouldn't chance it

rocktrout

ahh ok thanks for the advice mate.
