Brand: Elpico
Sorry it's gone. We may have another in stock or on the way. Please enquire below (or check our weekly Gear Update for incoming rarities).
Offered for sale is this rare British-made Elpico valve (tube) amp in good condition and excellent working order (see photos below for details).
It's just been given a full overhaul/service and sounds truly wonderful - if it had a Marshall or Vox badge it'd be worth a small fortune.It has the full complement of Mullard valves: 2 x EL84, 3 x ECC83 1 x EZ81 - all tested and working. The output transformer had failed and our valve tech didn't consider it worth rewinding - it now sports a new Fender OT and is the better for it.
Elpico amps were used by Paul McCartney and Dave Davies in the Beatles' and Kinks' early days.
It is a UK 240v model and will require a step-up transformer for use in Canada and USA. The UK plug will be removed before shipping to the EU/Australia unless otherwise requested.
We are passionate about supplying high quality vintage gear to our customers and go the extra mile to ensure complete satisfaction.

"Excellent equipment, wonderful service. I fully recommend Soundgas to anyone in the vintage gear market and I will definitely be a return customer. The gear itself was exactly as advertised and in great condition."

“I’ve bought a number of items from Soundgas recently, and have been really impressed with their service. It takes the stress out of buying vintage gear to know it’s been properly (and faithfully) serviced or restored. Their after-sales service has also been exemplary. Highly recommended.”
TOM JOHNSTON
Fantastic. From initial contact to the product landing at my door the service provided was outstanding. Safe and secure shipping, quality serviced product.

"Finally, a company that tracks down all those brilliant curiosities that bring so much character and personality to a studio."

“Imagine the perfect eBay.... with everything you never knew you wanted… and you can rest assured that your vintage and rare wobbly sound device will turn up on time and in one piece and possibly in even better condition that when it left the workshop. Soundgas - literally amazing."
