You won’t regret buying this amp! But I will regret selling it.

Looks just like mine! Hey thanks, couldn’t figure out how to make the pic smaller w/ out my computer.
 
What were the few updates done? Looks like all of the original mustard caps have been replaced.

I am not the original owner and haven’t done anything with the amp. Owned it for years -it really is a good sounding 50wt.

It’s certainly a good looking amp. GLWTS
 
Geezus, that sounds amazing. My '72 50w had all the original Mustards and didn't sound that good. In fact, I only sold it because my much, much cheaper 1987xl sounded exactly the same.
 
FWIW, I recently picked up an old Super Lead and some of those coveted mustard caps were cracked and the amp sounds way better with actual functioning coupling caps. So at this point I’d be almost more nervous to buy an old amp like these that didn’t have at least a few caps redone, as it would make me wonder if the prior owner was paying attention to whether the thing needs servicing.
