I have one of these and am willing to let it go to fund some GAS. Part of their Vintage Tube series in the 80s and is a great foundation for a makeover project if the 80s rock look isn't for you. Its all tube, 12" speaker in a solid pine cab (not 100% as I've not stripped it yet but online research says its most probably so). Its fully working having just been serviced with a couple of new caps and new tubes. Have owned it for 25 yrs and barely used it for the last 24! Has nice cleans and can dial in a nice crunch overdrive. Am not a high gain person myself. Have added a master volume to allow for bedroom playing.

Getting a bit of a name as a sleeper amp from a handful of recent reviews online and some vids available: 

Not got photos at the moment as its up in Chester. Basically needs a bit of a soap & water clean to freshen up if retaining the peavey 80s styling but thats it. I was thinking of stripping & either recovering or staining the pine plus a new faceplate and cloth for a total revamp of its looks. Still will do that at some point if it doesn't sell.

Have some white Chicken Head and black Two Rock style knobs to throw in also.
