Up for sale is this fantastic 1974 Marshall Artiste 50w reverb combo. This beauty is 52 years old and is a true vintage classic British amplifier. It’s in as good a condition as you will get for its age. I've owned it for about 6yrs, and it’s all original from what I can tell. It doesn't get much better than this. 

Original Power & Output transformers, PCB electronics and its original creamback/greenback speakers.

Great amp, loud, but not massively loud. Tends to be very clean but when the 2 channels are jumpered together is when the amp comes into its own. This is when it gets loud and you get that wonderful Marshall distorted sound. The amp is also a great platform for a pedal board. The reverb works and sounds glorious. 

For a 52 year old Marshall it’s in really good condition a couple of insignificant nicks in the tolex mainly on the edges, the checkerboard grill cloth is in great condition and has a few nicks but no tears. The end caps are missing from the side handles. It’s got that old blues-breaker look to it. It also has an adjustable voltage selector which means that it can be used in Europe and beyond.

I am moving on some of my gear, so this is priced to sell. You would find an original like this for this price anywhere, so don't miss out. Also have a good look at the photos and please ask all questions.

Pickup from CV37 Stratford upon Avon.
