Any ideas what these usually go for? There's a shop in Belfast has one for a hundred pound. This shop is usually really shitty about prices though.
I'm more sort of nosey about this than anything else. I won't buy it, like. I've always like the look of these amps and will pick one up eventually, but not now.
I'm wondering how they've held their value. Weren't they like, a hundred and fifteen new?

Something like that, yeah. I actually really wanted one too, I saw them going for £50-£60 easy before they were discontinued, so that seems a bit steep, but they seem to be pretty rare now.

Half an hour to go and this only has thirty quid on it.

Forty-six pounds it went for.

Presumably solid-state?

Aye. It's basically the Deacy amp. It also has something called a Booster Out, which I think might be a pre amp out so that you can use the Deacy booster to drive another amp.
Not particularly versatile, but fun and good for what it is I reckon.
Plus, y'know, it's a wee amp, and I like wee amps.
