Your opinions on this DR-103

[Gilmourian]

Found someone looking to sell there dr-103 (sorry i tried to embed the image but they are to big to display on the forum with out it cropping)


As you can see its pretty beat up

The amp originally came from the Isle of Wight. The duct tape around the capacitors which are orginal. has just been serviced and came back like that. I bought it in the late eighties from Strings in portsmouth as my first bass amp and kept it ever since. There are two band names on one side, 'Thin Red Line' and 'The Last Straw'


Pre amp Valves are:

2x Tunsgram, 1 Mazda and 1 indecipherable

Power amp Valves

1x Sevtlana 3x Marshall

I'm a total novice with these amps. In general though, what could you tell me about its age originality etc? Should I bother to get it and if so what should I offer (pounds sterling).


UPDATE : removed link and upload the images instead

I can't see the pics either

[Gilmourian]

Thanks for pointing that out. I've update the original post

[Dr.HI-TONE]

Do you have any pics of the wiring.
The bottom side is the most important when evaluating one of these.

[Gilmourian]

no but I've requested the image from the seller

[Gilmourian]

here is the wiring. the seller has stated he is going to list the amp on ebay this monday so time is not on my side

[mhuss]

That looks pretty clean and original.
