 SOUND CITY AMP REPAIR

Big loud British amps from the 70's, these are basically paste up jobs from Marshall and Hiwatt designs, some with quirky tone circuits. They usually need complete filter cap replacement and new plate supply resistors. As these are not particularly collectible amps, they are good platforms for custom work. Built with big transformers they can either be restored or changed into Marshall or Hiwatt circuits rather easily.  They do not show up all that often, and usually are a good bargain if you are looking for a vintage amp with a British vibe.

Note: These used poor quality filter caps, so if you pick one up I would not suggest turning it on for long, replace the filter caps first.
