It has an alnico magnet and 100w power handling. With it's aluminium dust cap, it has an almost searing brightness and clarity to it that really shines with a lush reverb. Basically my quest is to rehome it in a suitable amp now that the peavey has shat itself. I was going to sell it but I can't bring myself to. It's just too special and people hardly ever sell them anymore. I want some big cleans, big reverb and a bit of mid to low gain dirt for the rockist side of things.

Will be playing through it mainly a Japanese jazzmaster with ye old mastery bridge and SD Antiquity II's,
and my Dearmond M75T with TV Jones T-armond

Cheers guys, any help is appreciated

When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

There's a bid Super Reverb on TM I think?

Back in the dark ages when I was a teen ( late 60's ) Goodmans were considered THE (uk) speakers to own. Fane were the second place follow up and Celestion ranked a mere third...I had an 18" in a Selmer Goliath bass cab which was particularly fine for aiding with digestive functions.
