metro amp 50 watt plexi clone with MV worth in used market ? Likes or dislikes?
 
not built by george, but by a tech. MV = master volume mod kit by george
 
Great amp,and loud. Sad Metro can do vintage Marshall better than Marshall today.
 
You could probably try for up to what the kit used to sell for new. With kits there's no real added value in that it's already made. I have a '69 Metro 100 watter that I built 2+ years ago and even though it's been trouble free and completely ass kickin' since I don't have the building history/resume to charge for my "skills". Who knows, maybe now that the kits are no longer available the value of a made one might creep up a little. End of the day it's worth what someone will pay. To me my plexi is worth as much as any boutique guys 2K+ version because it sounds so damn good but I don't have their pedigree :lol: :LOL:
 
the most around 1100 and at least 700 with headcase etc. Alot of the boutique amps u see around here for 3k are or were using many metro parts such as the transformers, ss effects loop , chassis, etc, which is probably really one of the reasons why metro no longer sells parts. I built a few metroamps and loved em.
 
having sold a lot of stuff lately, amps seem to going for about 60 cents on the dollar.
 
steve, don't know about the 60%, the ones i look at are like 80. a chap has a vh4 and wants 3,700 firm, if u shop around u find them at 3,900. new. u still play the elmwood ?
u have/had the 60 or 90 watt? u like it?
