I think it is an honest straight amp, no evidence of fakery....but.
The preamp filter cans, switches, lamp, some caps on the trem board and an octal socket have been replaced. Looks like someone had noise issues on preamp grids and put shielded wires on.
it is odd that the inspection tag is 10028 and the amp is 10043 so definitely a bit weird there (that is the only but!)
Price is out of my league to buy, but might be a deal for someone. Knock a couple of grand of maybe?

Its actually over 10000 USD, the 8000 is GBP.

Completely retolexed by Marshall if you read the description. Personally if I was paying that kind of money I would want 100% originality.

Cool amp, but I wouldn't pay more than $750.00 for it.

I'd pay more for a 6100 brasser any day of the week.

That's more than 10 times than I would pay for it, but, those vintage BB are selling for crazy money.

A fool and his money...

I think it looks pretty good, a few things have been serviced. That's about what these amps go for, 10 Gs.

 

[Dogs of Doom]

yeah, but... ebay is giving $5 off!

I remember this amp being for sale about a year ago from the same seller.

Seriously though, there's no way I would pay that much for a Bluesbreaker..Hell, I'm betting for less than that one could find a nice '68-'69 Plexi..Or a LOT of other much cooler stuff!

We used to have a nickname for the BB..We called it the "Backbreaker", 'cause it was so darned heavy!

The type of item that languishes out there and never sells for good reason. I have heard it said that the longer the story the lower the price.

I thought pinstripe was only used on jtm units? Interestingly i used to know the whereabouts of 10044 and it was a 50 Tremolo head. Maybe Jono Kirk could chip in with more info with it being one of his?

Seems my "Mary" comment didn't meet "community standards". Too PC new-age BS for me.

Sad. The mods on here have a track record of hounding away good, knowledgeable members while tolerating some ridiculous BS. Bring back plexi palace!

I guess I missed something here

Well to be fair, a couple of real winners were dismissed a few months back...
