Boutique amps before boutique amps were a ‘thing’.
Elgen amps were hand-built in the 1960s and 1970s to an incredibly high standard. They don’t often come up for sale as they were built in a pretty limited amount & most of the amps were exported to the USA, where they were known to have been used by Peter Frampton & Steve Marriott from Humble Pie, Nick Simper (Deep Purple) & Warhorse.
The amp is available as just the head unit, it can converted to a combo, or can come with a matching T&T cabinet to your specification.
Rebuild
It’ll be be serviced & the filter caps replaced with top quality F&T/TAD electrolytic capacitors. All other components (e.g. coupling capacitors and resistors) will be tested, and where needed/appropriate replaced with the same NOS or as-similar-as-we-can components.
Revoice
As this is a beautifully made vintage amp we have not made any changes to the voicing of this amp. Although this was built as a Bass amp, it sounds just as amazing with a guitar pluged in.
Refurb
With regards to refurbishment, we’ll re-tolex the case as the original is worn & paint splattered. Other cosmetic work will be replacing the rusty vent mesh, cleaning up the rust spots on the enameled pink faceplate & replacing the control knobs with identical new ones. The old hardware will be provided, and can be put back in case you want to keep the relic’d look.
