Marshall 1974x Head Build... Purchasing Question

[cap217]

I want to buy this. Not sure who built it but it looks like Weber xformers. What does this look like to you? Quality or should I pass?

Some things I recognize as Weber kit (the brown board with split turrets, the yellow caps which are not Mallory), some things not (that massive speaker impedance selector). Looks like a mixed bag of parts. So, not HIGH quality, but OK. You should play it and see what you think!

Looks like a straight Weber Kit Build, their boards, txfmrs, and I remember the elon brand cap from a weber 18W kit I had awhile back.

Depends on the price and what you are looking for.
The parts choices aren't what I would use when starting a 18W, but the build quality looks good.

Looks like something I would throw together so should be damn good

I thought those were mallory caps. I cant play it, I would have to hope it sounds good and just buy it. Comes with a nice repro marshall head box though.

What would you price this at?

Are the inputs jumped internally?

Def not Mallory caps, unless Weber is relabeling to make them look generic!

Amp sounded pretty good, but had more hum than I like.

Is this a Weber 6M18 kit? Looks like a TMB 18w amp.

It looks like its a weber and the kit if $495 with the head box and tolex. Im sure thats what this is. He is asking $550 but not knowing anything about the build I will pass.

Looks like I see the trem caps, so I don't think its a TMB.

I see one of Gabi's amps in the background..

Nice work on the amp and clip..

Hey, that chassis looks familiar! How did I miss your build?

Looks great.
