If I didn’t own one I would get this. These amps are incredible. I, like @kurtsstuff2003 have no association with this amp. These come up 1 or 2x a year. I don’t believe the prices are falling either.

I'm tempted. But would need to install US IEC and rewire for 120v before you could even test it to see if it works properly upon arrival.

Haven’t messed around with or investigated at all since I haven’t bought an amp from Europe but couldn’t you use a step up/down transformer?

Yeah. But I dunno... might be too much trouble. Plus all said and done, probably looking at like $9K. Haven't found any Larry clips that sound good either. So it's hard to pull the trigger.

If it was more recent than a 601 I would have bought it already

Do you think the price here is fair for what it is?If it was more recent than a 601 I would have bought it already

I am clearly voting it’s not worth it to me. If it were a 9 series, it would already be on its way to me. Any owners of said 9 series that this piques their interest, drop me a line!
Beyond that, I’m about to pull the trigger for basically the same cash for a new Hell Razor so who knows what is worth what any longer

To my understanding, which is the simplest, is effectively revision number with the 962 being the most recent

Maybe 4k imo- the first digit is how new they are, but there are different revisions of even those- eg mine is a 939 2.8 which is identical to the current 962 outside of the separate EQ’s per channel and the depth and punch being on the back instead of front. Pmm is the third one in that price tier (metal amp wise) with less versatility but more specificity, and theoretically the thors hammer as well

You could also use a step up transformer I’d imagine

Could you share your thoughts on price range by the different series? If not comfortable sharing publicly, would appreciate a dm if you’re ok with that. Thanks either way

Yeah I just have a hard time thinking it’s not somewhat in range. A modded hermansson at this point is 6K. Larry’s damn near impossible to find at any variant even if it isn’t the latest greatest thing

based on offers I had thrown at me immediately, a 962, 939, or pmm would sell to someone at 15-20k- I understand that that is insane, but thats what people will offer. 800 series somewhere from 7000-12000 depending on which and if its a production amp or a modded marshall. Beyond that I have no idea. I got mine for 9k, which while a lot was fair imo. I do think its the best amp ive played, but I also dont think any amp is really worth that much, and the crazy offers I got for mine reflect rarity rather than worth. Personally i wouldnt recommend anyone throwing more than 5k at something that is not a 800 series or higher, or a recently modded one. All subjective, but based on my own offers and prices I know stuff has sold at.
