Heads up! $1,500 1959X in Oregon

[Maggot Brain]

Not my ad but this looks to be a killer steal deal for someone!

Normal channel is not functioning but I imagine it's a fairly easy/affordable fix considering the price! Figured I'd give a heads up incase any fellow MFers in Oregon can snag this deal! If I'd had the cash I'd already be driving down there.

That is a deal considering todays prices and I could be there in a hour.
I’m pretty sure I could fix it to.
I have a vacation that is coming up so it’s not in the budget.

 

[Rocktane]

I've been tempted, just not in the budget right now.

Flip it!

Back off Bro’s that’s mine.
( if it’s still available, if he’ll ship)

I can be there very quickly . Lol But.......
If I had it I would keep it.

 

[Maggot Brain]

Someone get it before I weasel a way to go grab it! Haha

I'd be content as hell as I don't even use or jump the normal channel... probably a bad tube, input or pot!

 

[Central Scrutinizer]

Sounds like a pretty good deal. Hopefully, not a major ordeal to fix it.
Someones going to be happy with this one.

Would this be wired on a turret board like the original or on a PCB? I would think that if one channel is working and the other is not, it's probably a fairly simple issue in the preamp section.

 

[ibmorjamn]

Re-issue , I am not certain but they have not used turret boards in a while as far as I know.
It could be very simple.

A channel doesn't simply go out because of a pot, but these are simple amps and any pro amp guy could havi t going in two minutes. If I wasn't 14 hours down the coast I'd go buy it right now.

I can't account for them all but the reissues I've seen were all late '70s style; big printed circuit board out in the middle, tubes, iron and control panel hand wired.

The normal channel is less complicated but any loss of ground would do it.
Input jacks could be bad or broken wire/ solder.
The signal goes from the input jacks to the grid of the 1A the first triode, from the anode to volume pot , from there to 470k mixer and then it joins 1B before it goes to V2A.

Most likely have an ECC83 died.
They are the same pcb as the 1987 and 2245 reissues.
If it were the jack likely one or other of the channel inputs would work
Whatever ti is - very easy fix.

Right? The channels only use 1 triode in the V1 ECC83 right? So I that's been my biggest hunch... K.I.S.S.

I'm squirming to snag it but I legit would have very little use for it. I owned a 1959 clone many years ago and it was just brutal & insanely loud in my usual living and jamming environment..

 

[Rocktane]

Has anyone asked for more info? Gut shots? Decent pic of the back panel?

 

[Browneyesound]

Is this really a good deal?

Keep in mind, my mindset is that of someone who bought a 1959 reissue in 1994.

 

[playloud]

Not to beat a dead horse, but it seems crazy to me that this is regarded as a good deal when you can get a new 1959HW for not much more: https://www.thomannmusic.com/marshall_1959hw_gitarrentopteil.htm

 

[ibmorjamn]

Not n the US.

This.

I was on the Thomman site and saw their crazy low price on a SV20H.
Was ready to buy, thinking, even with shipping it was cheap, then find out, they don’t ship Marshalls to the States. Sad trombone .
