SOLD Jet City 20H - Dan Gower Modified SOLD

edited September 2014 in Amps £
SOLD for a Jet City 20 watt head modified by Dan Gower in London. Originally cost me over £600. I've been the only owner and it's in excellent condition. The mods are as follows:

- Gutted preamp for more gain and goodness
- Saturation switch (adds gain and smooth compression)
- Three-way voice switch (alters midrange focus and tightness)
- Depth knob

Overall I'd describe it as a less sizzly and aggressive modded Marshall. I owned a Soldano Avenger before the Jet City and found the two shockingly similar. It's loud enough for small gigs but has shit clean tones. It's all about cranking it up. It doesn't mind being dimed at all.

I've listed this before in case you're wondering.

£235 including insured shipping to the UK and PP fees. I'm based in Ireland. I have to make sure the original box is still in safe condition. Otherwise it's ready to go. Any more questions just ask. Trades and offers are welcome.

    Got to say, I bought a Lightlabs Goatkeeper from @angrygoldfish, and he was superb in service, communication and delivery. Buy with confidence !

    Any videos or samples of how it sounds?
    0reaction image LOL 0reaction image Wow! 0reaction image Wisdom · Share on Twitter
  • It's basically a hot-rodded Marshall kind of sound, but a little less aggressive and with the thunk of a Soldano. I'll record some clips on my phone and post them up. I have poor upload speeds where I am, though, so it might not be until tomorrow before they're posted.

    It wouldn't be quite as tight as a Friedman or Splawn, but it's not that far from the Soldano Avenger I bought the Jet City to replace.

    Amazed you haven't sold this to be honest. If I didn't already have a 22h as my backup I would have taken your hand off for it. 

    There's vids on youtube of these already:

    I'm uploading a really rough demo now to Youtube. I have no idea how long it's going to take or what the quality is going to be like.

    edit: This is going to take forever. I don't know if I can wait this long. Should have filmed in 480 instead of 1080. FACK!

    edit #2: Cancelled the upload. I'll re-shoot some footage in 480 and make it shorter and then try re-uploading.

    He's good alright, but he's a lousy decorator. Less playing, more painting say I. :-S

  • What is the name of the Mod that dan did to this amp is it the Cali mod or something else
    0reaction image LOL 0reaction image Wow! 0reaction image Wisdom · Share on Twitter
  • Something else. The Cali Mod is what I would consider super modern, tight and aggressive. This is more like a Soldano—fatter, smoother, rounder, and slightly more squishy and vintage in its voicing. You can get it to rip and soar easily, but it wouldn't be as modern as a Fortin or the Cali Mod.

    Hey man! You still out at Strandhill or are you back up in Dublin?

    I might be interested, but it depends on how much love it needs. ;) I have a very similar guitar that I played to death. It needs some proper fret work so I really wouldn't need another poorly guitar, but if you're still local I might give it a try.

    To be honest, I really need cash. I'm trying to save up for my first 'serious' guitar. I'm finding it quite difficult. xD I'm so used to buying small things like pedals and affordable amps that large purchases become almost impossible.

  • The practise space is a tip right now. I'd be embarrassed to have the Matchless out. Ha! Still would love to give it a go though.

    If the neck and frets are fine, I might get some use out of it. I'd probably block the Floyd Rose though. I have a couple of people interested at the moment, so I can't promise anything to you, mate.
