Saw this on Facebook marketplace and after some man maths I decided it was too cheap to refuse, so picked it up.
Friedman Dirty Shirley Mini head and matching ported 1x12 cab.
It's really very compact, and sounds great (after some initial weirdness which was solved by replacing the power valves). Cathode biased so handy to replace valves, which I imagine I'll need to do frequently, it runs very hot (a combination of getting 20 watts out of a pair of EL84s, and having a 230V tap running at 240V I'd imagine)
Does fantastic Marshall tones, and is quite dark voiced so suits my Teles and Strat.
3 way gain structure switch is really useful and it does surprisingly good cleans with the volume rolled back on the guitar.
Here it is next to my MJW
