Vintage 1970s Simms Watts PA200 'Super' KT88 Valve Guitar Amplifier Amp SERVICED

Description
1970s Simms Watts ‘Super’ PA200 Valve Amplifier.
Simms-Watts are one of the forgotten heroes of the British valve scene. They are built to the highest quality and are becoming extremely collectable in the modern market. Simms-Watts were considered amongst the best brands you could buy back in the day, and were the first sound contractors for Glastonbury Festival.
This is no exception to the rarity and build-quality of these favoured early Simms-Watts’. With this being the PA version, who knows whether or not this could have been a part of Glastonbury Festival itself!
The 200w gives one of the best clean sounds you will find, and take some serious output before distortion. Therefore, this works brilliantly for bass guitar, but can be used for guitar, PA or even a hi-fi system!
