There's a Mesa Venture, 600w for sale in New Plymouth. Head, 4x10 and 1x15 cabs.

I was in a band with the man, now deceased, that owned it. Sounds absolutely killer. His son wants 2.5k.

I’ve had two versions of that head (and in fact have that version currently) and also owned a cab like that 4x10 - this is an incredible rig for the price.

I nearly bought an SVT 25 years ago. I understand why they are so well regarded...it just wasn’t quite right for me

Toany had one for a while and I think Jimi as well.

Ashdown CTM-100 went for $700. That’s cheap as chips for a Bobby Dazzler amp
