GONE - Bogner Shiva with Reverb - 1x12 Combo - £1000! GONE

What's Hot

edited July 2016 in Amps £
I really do love this amp but even with the very nice conversion to a head, it is still pretty heavy - somewhere in excess of 40lbs. It's easily converted back into a combo but the current set up seems to give the best of both worlds, still utilising the very meaty sounding ported 1x12 cab but with options to use in a more flexible set up - and it's definitely a lot easier to shift around than the combo.

Comes with the foot switch and the FX loop cable (which I've never used but I'm sure it will work fine). I'm based up in Edinburgh but I'm in a position where I might be able to travel to the north of England to deliver.

Great Fender-style cleans, big Marshall-style crunch with a footswitchable boost and separate reverb for each channel. Probably the best amp I've ever owned, certainly my favourite and it recorded beautifully, wiping out my Dual Rec from the mix. However, in my declining years, it's just too much amp for me.

Cosmetically it's in very good condition but it came to me without a regular Bogner badge, which I always meant to order, but like the previous owner, never got round to. I will try to order a replacement before selling or else I can send it on.

£1000 including head shell and combo and all the bits. 

Thanks,

Cam

    Bump. Now looking like it will be for sale only. :) Pics later today or tomorrow but it's a nice job on the headshell.

    Due to @dts67's rock bottom pricing :) , I'm reducing the price of my Shiva to £1150, which includes the conversion cost (or at least some of the cost), for anyone in Scotland or the north of England tempted by all the love for these tone monsters. Can't say enough good things about these. Best rock amp I've ever owned. :)

    LOL :) I'm just about to put my Lone Star Special up for sale with a view to maybe keeping the Shiva. Completely impractical at my age and stage but man, they do sound superb. Good luck selling yours. ;)

    Bump for a great sounding amp? Would consider p/x for a smaller head or combo, ideally a Princeton or DRRI.

    Some clips from another thread to give an idea of what the Shiva does. :)



    Since there's not a huge amount of interest, I'm going to try using this tonight with a view to maybe holding onto it. However, I've had to temporarily move into a flat with several flights of stairs and no lift, so I'll see how that goes. Groan. :)

    Can maybe deliver down south too. :)

    Had to give up trying to get it up and down the stairs the other night and also discovered I can't park anywhere near my current flat, so I didn't get to use it. Looks like it's going to sit unplayed until I move back to my old flat so I'm dropping the price in the hope that I can get something lighter I can actually use. 

    £1050 collected in Edinburgh. Delivery options within the North of England and Scotland a possibility. Trades still considered. :)

    LOL! Always fancied a Mrk IV but having been through lots of brilliant Mesa Boogies in the last few years, I just don't think they work as well for me.

    To me, and that's the important part, the Shiva is the best amp I've owned. I currently also have '63 Vibroverb that I really like and being much lighter, is a bit more practical, but the flexibility and core sounds of the Shiva still marks it out for me as the best.

    It's only due to a temp move to a different flat that's made it impractical for me to keep the Shiva. Getting the head conversion helped but not enough to get passed me having to lug it up three floors! Even if I loved the Mrk IV, I suspect you're right... it's still not a happy three floor carry. The Vibroverb is bad enough, which is why I'm on the look out for something lighter. :)

    I should also mention that the Shiva has one of the best Master Volumes I've ever heard. Unbelieveably, it really is a great bedroom amp.

    Bump... I now have the missing Bogner badge and I plan to put it back in the original 1x12 cab and include the custom head-shell as an optional extra. :)

    Bump for not having done any of the things I said I'd do in the previous bump. But I will. Soon. :)

    Just try me. I prefer traditional guitars and I probably have too many telecasters at the moment but happy to consider most things.
