Vampower / Vintage 1970s Vampower MK1 MK1B 100w Valve Amplifier Head / 1970's / Amp For Sale

Vintage 1970s Vampower MK1 MK1B 100w Valve Amplifier Head We've had a couple of these in in our time, and this is by far the nicest one! This was purchased from a churchgoer who found this in a cupboard in his church. It had been sat there for years unused. It is uncirculated and the low serial number on this '008' indicates a special amplifier indeed. The original place of purchase - Grimsby Music Centre - is still visible on a label to the back. The inner label dates this to 1972, coinciding with the original C-Core transformers, making this a MK1B. We had the 4x EL34 valves replaced with high quality Harma's, as the originals were not working, but the ECC83s are a mix of Brimar and Tungstraam. We have had a wire mesh back made to fit this as the original was missing. The bulgin fixed to the back left side is void and is not attached to anything. We have left this in to plug the hole. Otherwise extremely original indeed. The condition of this is very good with only a few light scuffs, as pictured. An overall wonderful and rare amplifier. Please check out the in-depth pictures below as these form part of our description. This amplifier has been serviced to a playable & safe standard, by one of our leading amp techs. To find out more about what our service includes, please check out our terms and conditions before purchasing. At The Music Locker we will do all we can for you to get the instrument you want. You’re more than welcome to come and have a play on this, coupled with one of our vintage guitars!

WARRANTIES
The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products). We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit. It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving. The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
Due to the age and nature of vintage second hand equipment, The Music Locker cannot offer any warranties on the Products it supplies, other than the statutory 14 day cooling off period as detailed in the section ‘Consumer Rights’.

OUR REFUNDS POLICY
• If you decide to change your mind within the fourteen day cooling-off period in accordance with the distance selling regulations, we will process the refund due to you as soon as we receive the Product and it is found to be in the condition in which it was dispatched. In this case, we will refund the price of the Product in full, including the cost of dispatching the Product. However, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the item to us.
• If you change your mind outside of the fourteen day cooling off period and the Product is not in any way defective, then solely at our discretion, we will accept the Product return subject to a re-stocking charge of 10% of the product sale and delivery price. The purchaser pays full return postage plus the restocking fee upon satisfactory return of the item.
• If you claim that the Product is defective, we will examine the returned Product to confirm the defect identified by you. If we acknowledge the Product defect, we will then contact you to discuss the next steps and agree a course of remedy. If a refund is applicable we will notify you of your refund via e-mail within a period of 14 days, this is necessary in case we have to consult experts to verify the product defect.
