FS: 3ch. Dual Rectifier

[Elpelotero]

I need to sell off my 3ch DR because the bank account is running low. I have my pre500's and C+ and can't justify needing this anymore.
You guys know I treat my amps well. However, this one has a busted headshell because it fell off the table one day when I had the chassis outside to take some pics and what not. The amp works fine and I have even recorded with it since then.

I will include everything the amp brings--original hangtags, footswitch, cables, manuals, etc. Even the warranty is still good because I only bought this in August of 2005. The tubes are relatively new as well. They have plenty of life in them because I live in a college apt. and can't turn on as much as I would like to. Only one preamp tube has been replaced. Fuse has never blown.

I am asking $1000. They retail at $1699 new, so I think my price is fair given that a new headshell is only about $200 from Mesa. Pics to come up soon.

Hello, I hear alot of claims that the pre-500 sound better than the newer 3-channels.

Would u agree to these claims?

What is your email address?

I sent you an e-mail. Just a couple of quick questions. Oh, forgot. Does it have EL34's or 6L6's.

Look forward to your reply.

Tubes are:

stock 6l6 Str440. Medium-Low hours logged on these tubes, as mentioned. They mostly get used around the time of a show for one practice and the actual show, and we've had about maybe 5 shows with this amp? Other than that, I would play the tubes for 15-35 minutes every other day (+ or -) whenever I was on vacation back home. Vacations were anywhere from 2 weeks (Spring Break, Christmas) to summer vacation.

stock 5u4gb. no problems with these. Rectifier tubes last a long time.

stock 12ax7. One of these died, so I'll throw in another 12ax7 I have. Rest look and sound good.

Pictures tomorrow!

I have a TON of packing materials for this amp, so know that it will arrive well despite what shipping employees may want to do to it!
