Found: 60's Vox AC30 Top Boost

Dodge

(Editted for clarity)

Preferably a JMI, but would also consider a VSL/VSEL (i.e. hand wired with the valve rectifier) 60's AC30.  Nothing later.

• Must have original transformers, choke and speakers
• Must have an original circuit (I don't mind if components have been changed during servicing, but the circuit must remain original
• Must be a combo with the top boost built in (not the retrofit module).  No head and cab.
  

I don't mind if it's cosmetically challenged.  Anyone selling?

Ideally the earlier the better but I'd also consider a later 60's VSL/VSEL version (I.e. hand wired with a GZ34 rectifier).  Nothing after that (I.e. Birch Stolec, Dallas Arbiter, Rose Morris etc.)

Anyone selling?

hope you have a strong buget

Thanks @iain.reverb - most of those aren't top boost models, and all of them are completely overpriced.

They're not that expensive, £1100-1200 will buy me what I want.

Thanks for the heads up mate, although that has a non-original transformer and the retrofit top boost module.  Daft price too.

I know there's a 60's AC30 in the shop where I work at the moment. I will have to check if it is a top boost model.
