SOLD Hiwatt Custom 20

strtdv

I recently took this in a trade. Great sounding amp, but I already have 2 clean, British voiced amps, so it's a case of last one in, first one out.

20 watts (probably closer to 15 as it's a pair of EL84s in cathode biased class A).

All turret board, handwired construction (ridiculously tidy)

Immaculate condition, new EL84s fitted.

Does the fantastic clean Hiwatt thing, but can also get a gritty with the gain control, or you can drive it hard and push it into power amp distortion. With a strat it's just beautiful sounding.

I'm reluctant to sell at this silly price, but I've my heart set on a Friedman and I don't have the space until this goes.

SOLD

Could you measure the width of it for me?  I'm picturing this on top of a vertical 2x12....

I have its bigger brother (Studio/Stage combo).  Love it to bits, but my back isn't so enamoured of it....  I've often thought one of these could be a more sensible alternative.

strtdv

I'll confirm for definite but off the top of my head its 52 or 53 cm

Babones

Nice. Shame they put the back panel parts on upside down though.

strtdv

Not sure if serious? It's pretty common for the same chassis to be used for both head and combo versions of amps

strtdv

Still here.
I can confirm it's 52cm wide
I can also confirm it's ridiculously loud for a pair of EL84s

Sale preferred but will consider trades for other reasonably compact heads

strtdv

Bump with price drop £500 plus postage.

Where are you based mate?

strtdv

Based in Belfast, but can post anywhere in the UK for £25

Bump for a great sounding handwired amp
I'm also interested in trades for other compact heads (will add cash if needed)

strtdv

Bump.

Final silly price drop to £450 plus postage.

Awesome sounding amp, only going as I've a planned incoming amp and I've no space for this.

Richardj

What kind of power amp are you looking for?

strtdv

I'm looking at a custom MJW build based on one of the Twin amps Martin does, likely in the 10-18 watt region.

Richardj

Ah, I don't suppose a Cornell Plexi 7 might be of interest then?

strtdv

Not really unfortunately. If you sell it for £450 then let me know ;-)

strtdv

On hold pending payment

strtdv

Available again.
The buyer bought a guitar the same day and now can't afford the amp!

strtdv

Right, this needs gone ASAP, I've decided to pull the trigger on a Friedman and need the space.

£400 plus £27 postage next day delivery.
