Title: Trainwreck Express For Sale in UK - Re-advertised
Post by: herby660 on December 10, 2008, 08:30:19 PM
Trainwreck Express Clone Valve Amplifier made by Ceriatone with extras 

My apologies this amp was listed elsewhere and someone wasted my time so I have relisted it on ebay.  ..See below link

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ceriatone-Trainwreck-Express-Clone-Amplifier-Expression_W0QQitemZ280293463441QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_MusicalInstr_Amplifiers_RL?hash=item280293463441&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1301%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

For sale is a Trainwreck Express Clone built by Ceriatone which has been expertly put together and is an exact clone of the famous Trainwreck Express amplifier made by the late Ken Fisher. This is a true tone machine and is reputed as probably the best rock amplifier of all time. Think JCM800 on steriods. But turn your guitar knob down for the most beautiful sparkly cleans.

Pedals who needs pedals, this is a really dynamic amp that you can feel through to your fingers, which brings outs all of your playing nuances and most people simply play with just a guitar, amp and cord. It really is that good!

Although the amp sounds fantastic as is, I am also including in the sale the very same Mallory PVC replacement caps used in the original Trainwreck (which are unused) together with a replacement unused 'vintage' Toneslut output transformer which is a copy of the original Trainwreck output transformer.  I never got round to fitting them but with these two upgrades this will make it the Ultimate Trainwreck Express.  These parts will smooth the distortion aka the original.  The amp as stock has a slightly more textured (Marshall) grind, which some do actually prefer.

The beauty of having both Transformers and caps is that you can simply change it back if you prefer it stock.

I was going to build a maple cab etc but a new guitar forces the sale. 

It includes 3 new Tungsol 12AX7's which are regarded as the best new preamp valves on the market and two matched EL34 Tesla Tubes .

The amp has been played for probably 4 hours max, so get yourself a bargain.  The amp would cost you $670 + $100 parts (Toneslut OT and Caps) + Delivery £110 = $880

Due to the exchange rate this would cost you around £600 pounds!
