Not bad. It has had a power tube socket replaced. definitely not "All Original". The seller was working me hard for months to buy it but it is grossly overpriced. $2200 for the head + $1700 for the Cab doesn't equal $5500.

Even at crazy "ebay Idiot" pricing $2500 for the head and $2000 for the cab.......the math doesn't work.

No kidding Mike!

I felt like he smelled blood in the water!

I did Foolishly give WAY Too much for an amp from a friend of his, so he already had me labelled as a big spender.

It is overpriced, definitely. But I don't recall seeing any in that good condition cosmetically in quite some time.

My good friend Dr.Hiwatt found me a squeaky clean DR504 about a year ago. Had it shipped in from Switzerland.

Clean ones are out there, but they can take some time to locate. I agree that the seller of that half stack is on a fishing expedition.

Does Mrs. OldSchool know you've been using her nice leather couch as a HIWATT showcase? :lol:

Actually, those were pics provided by the seller (and featured his nice leather couch).

Our couches are dark brown. Better for hiding Hiwatt foot smudges (what Mrs. OldSchool doesn't know...) :) .

Yeah, but he's hitting nothing but foul balls.

Well, I imagine that wouldn't be all that difficult, now that you mention it.

And if you ever look at me that way again....!! :wink:
