Hand built in the USA and sounds incredible. One of the best pedal platforms out there as it delivers crystal clean tones at very loud volumes if you want it and can be incredibly quiet if necessary too. Lovely British crunch when driven too.
I bought this brand new from an official Reeves dealer in Germany and had it imported at the end of February this year. I've never used it with a real cabinet and have only played it for less than 30 hours (approx) with the amazing Suhr reactive Load box. It has never been gigged and only played at home (non-smoking home)I'm selling it because I can't justify having this amp and never needing to gig with it as I play at home only. Seems a shame to waste this beast by playing it through a load box when other amps can do that for me. I've recently bought the little Laney Lionheart head and it's good enough for my needs. It was the harsh reality of my situation, so now I've chased the dream of owning a Reeves, I can at least put that GAS to bed with the knowledge that I owned an incredible amp!Rest assured that these are hard to come by in the UK, they cost an absolute fortune to import from the States and this amp listing is cheaper than what you'll get from the German dealer. I've knocked a fair bit of money off for an amp that is in mint/as new condition.I live near Cardiff and will be willing to travel along the M4 corridor or beyond (within reason) if you meet me half way.Any questions, please ask
