FS: 1973 DR504 Custom 50, w/ 2x12 cabinet & Road cases

[MrBanjo]

Sadly selling my 1973 Hiwatt DR504 Custom 50 4-input Head. Original Partridge transformers still intact and work great. It is all original except for the electrolytic capacitors were replaced about 10 years ago (and very low hours since then), using the F&T capacitor kit from Vintage Hiwatt Restorations. This amp has been my prized musical possession for years but is being sold because my rock star days are over, with no sign of returning! It is in very good shape, considering its age. Various scuffs and scratches, but no real damage of any kind. Works perfectly and sounds fantastic. Amp currently has Ruby E34L tubes, but I am including a set of Sylvanias with the sale. NOTE: the amp has the original Bulgin power socket. because of this, I have 2 power cables for the amp, both of which work perfectly and are included.

The 2x12 8-ohm speaker cabinet (Hiwatt clone) was custom built by Greg Olson of Coastline Amplification, and is top quality in every way, built with premium grade baltic birch plywood. Speakers are both Weber FC12 (Fane Crescendo clones for that Gilmour sound!). The cabinet is in like new condition and has lived its entire life in the road case when not in use.

The road cases I would say are light/medium-duty. They are definitely not "flight cases" but are so much better than just relying on slip covers to protect the gear. Perfect for basic transport and gigging. The cabinet case has good quality casters so both the head and cabinet can be wheeled around easily.

Also included:
2 x power cables, with the Bulgin socket connectors
Extra set of Sylvania EL34 power tubes (these are probably worth about $100 alone)

I REALLY don't want to ship this, but contact me if this interests you enough to figure it out. Located in Ferndale, MI (48220). Contact with any questions or additional photos! Asking $4750.
