That's the amazing thing with these old amps, they were hand built with wired components which can be easily replaced. Modern amps are made with printed circuit boards and digital stuff which can be much harder to maintain. It's 57 years old and will still be going in another 57, assuming valves can still be found!

I didn't realise MK had one when I got it.

You still see it in some of Guy's studio diaries, Guy used it for bass on his album for example.

Wowsers that's excellent - a proper amp as I would call it. Yes not keen on the very modern amps although I currently play through a 'newish' Vox Valvetronix or an older Fender Champion....

I use modern stuff as well, whatever works.

Problem with the Concert is it's really big and heavy. I've never had it above 5!
