Some people just don't take care of their stuff.

Probably a good thing, considering the present vintage/relic mania. :roll:

I was thinking "properly reliced" but hey, If that amp could talk I bet it has some stories to tell.

Thats a shame. There such a great amp theres no need to treat it like that. I have one of the first reissues from 1990 and I won't ever sell it.

why do the controls go to 12?

why not just make 10 louder, and make 10 be the top number, but 2 louder ?

:lol:

"Original tolex" -- quite the selling point.

I would bet an ashtray WAS being used and that the lit cigs were forgotten, burned down to where they fell out of the ahstray, then continued to burn on the amp.
