Erikson, who played Jazz to the migrating whales from his cliffside perch at the Esalen Institute. I am the second owner. The full, rich, warm tones of these amps are truly awe inspiring, but are unfortunately impractical for my life as parent of a young child in a small Big Sur cabin. The amps were professionally serviced by Audio Rehab in Los Angeles earlier this year (2024), and are performing flawlessly. There is a little aesthetic ware, a few spots and peeling back sticker, which I did my best to represent in the photos. These are rare and exquisite treasures, and I hope they find a loving home with a kindly audiophile. ___ PROCESSING / SHIPPING: Shipping within the USA is free via FedEx.
