Back up for sale - F/S Cornford Harlequin - £350.00 SOLD

What's Hot

edited May 2016 in Amps £
Getting harder to find apparently.  Bought on here a few months ago but not getting used - bit of an impulse purchase for a not very good player.  Its in excellent, unmarked condition, recent new valves (by the last owner) and has a Roqsolid cover.  I'm in Bromley and happy to dem it if you want.

Obviously its big but postable - about £20 I think by decent courier.

Info here:



I am, of course, open to sensible offers

    I could get prices for doing that.  Packing it up wouldn't be an issue but it is a bit cumbersome.

    OK - around £15 - £20 by courier - insured.

    Are you thewiddler ...or were you?  If you are or were then it is.  If not, even then, it might still be.

    No. I sold my amp to thewiddler who needed it for an album recording session. And I bought it from @Paul_C of this forum many, many moons ago (before this forum existed).

    You did - you had a set of Cornford amps and a rack of Japanese basses :-)

    I didn't have them all at the same time - I did have the Harlequin and Hurricane at the same time, but they (probably) went before I had the Hellcat. ;)

    Sorry to hear this hasn't worked out for you, Richard. It is a great amp - handwired in the UK for £350? Bargainous! 

    Unless this has received a torrent of abuse in the past few months it looks very much like this..

    No, it hasn't been abused, or even used much.  It sits forlornly in the room with down cast eyes begging to be used.  I do actually love the amp but I feel that someone else might be better able to use it.  It was a slightly silly purchase in that it isn't going to get used for recording and will only ever be a practice amp for me.  I can get all the volume I need from a little Yamaha and save a bit of space too.  
    And a few quid in the pocket never goes amiss.

    And I may well change my mind as I am not going to sell it to just anyone :-)

    Despite getting an offer or two I have decided to keep it and use it more.
    Apologies to those who expressed interest. It will be available again when we downsize, say about 2020.

    Made me chuckle. Entirely the correct decision, though: I wince when I think of the Carrera I let go...
