F/S MESA BOOGIE V TWIN- VERSION 1 £200+post

LOOKS LIKE A TANK-BUILT LIKE A TANK!

Effectively a 3 channel amp in a pedal that will produce 95% of all the classic Boogie tones:
-Pristine clean
-Blues crunch
-Very smooth high gain o/d

Ideally it likes a neutral big clean amp or powered cab.
Superb D.I. to desk or headphones/recording use.
Perfect solution to quick gigs/lightweight rig.

*  BY DEFAULT -This is probably the very best V twin out there-
I bought it unheard/unseen on ebay for £230 about 4 years ago.
Unfortunately it was hissy with scratchy pots and the gain knob didn't work. 
Gave it to a well known amp tech (he does knopflers amps) assuming £50 would sort it out and got it back 3 weeks later with a £160 bill!!
Just about everything was replaced/cleaned- no dry joints etc and silent running,
sure he did a great job but I think he made himself a birthday present out of it!
He consoled me with tech-talk and the assurance that it would be the best performing V twin in the world since he had 'breathed' on it.
It probably is but I have only ever used it 4 times.

    What's the voltage, and is it the original adapter?
