UPDATE: sold for $2650 cash/picked up

FS: Vintage Hiwatt DR103 loaded with NOS tubes
I'm willing to sell my 1972 Hiwatt DR103 Custom 100. The amp has the original Partridge transformers. PM or email please-

The amp is loaded with my top choice of NOS tubes I was using with it- didn't pull any and make substitutions to sell it. Output tubes are a matched quartet of Mullard/RCA EL34. Pre-amp tubes are:

* V1: RCA 12AX7/7025 (i think, check photo, sounds best anyway)
* V2: Brimar 12AX7
* V3: GE 12AT7 (phase inverter)
* V4: Brimar 12AX7

The amp has had some work done by Pete Cage. He did a cap job using a VHR cap kit. He also added a bias pot which is totally removable if you want to have it be more original with no bias pot. I took many detailed photos of the internals, so check them out. The amp sounds stellar but I'm just going in a different direction right now (not that I don't still want to sound stellar if my playing allows).

Price: $2,750 cash, local pickup in Annapolis. $2,850 shipped/insured/paypal'd.
