So I've got two things I'd like to move / trade.
1. Mesa IIC+ DRG. Serial in the 14xxx range, so presumably original IIC+. It's a combo with black tolex.
Condition-wise it could use some TLC. The vol pot shaft is snapped off, and a knob is missing. Tolex is scraped off in a couple places.
The thing is that this is located in the US, and I was planning to go back and do all the super simple stuff to it, then A/B it with my other DRG, but now I have visa issues and I probably can't visit until late in the year. So I can basically just sell it as-is now for a lower price, or maybe 10 months from now sell it fixed up. So this is the listing for the former scenario
It's in upstate/central NY if you're local.
2. VHT UltraLead. ULs are some of my fav amps and I have two -- I'm open to selling one or trading for another amp for some more diversity. This one is overall in great condition. Has some position marker stickers on there. This one is in Japan with me, and is 100V, so you have to use a step-down transformer or ask a tech to do the voltage conversion (if going to the US, obv similar if going to UK/EUR wiht a step-up).
I'd do $7k+ship for the DRG and $2400+ship for the UL but this can vary with trade stuff. Mainly I'm just trying to diversify, feels ilke it's been a long time since I've added a different sort of amp to the stable. I'll probably get some pics up later but you know what they look like.
I'd be looking for:
- Wizard MTL
- IIC+/++ HRG, heads only, preferably wood headshell
- Omega Granophyre
- Uber Ultra
- Bogner Snorkler
- Hiwatt Super-Hi 50
- Matamp Green GT1/120
- 5150 IIIS EL-34
- Engl Special Edition / Savage Special Edition (660)
- Friedman Custom Shop 50
- Unholy Grail
Possibly:
- Dean Costello Heavy Metal Warfare
- Carstens Grace / Empire
- Komet Concorde
My main thing is I really want a Wizard MTL, thinking maybe like a late MK1 version, EL-34. Been looking for one for years, never got the timing right.
