Watkins |
UNIQUE Mid 1960’s Westminster Mark 2 10W Valve Amplifier |
I received this as a bare cabinet with a relatively complete internal chassis and speaker. Many hours later, I have totally rejuvenated the cabinet into one that I honestly consider far more attractive than the original. However, if you’re a collector, I doubt if this is for you, I’ve been wrong though. The amp has had the once over and certain (Hunts and other) components have been replaced. The valves are all superb and could well be the originals. They are ALL MULLARD YELLOW PRINT an test perfect on my tester. The list is: 2x ECL82 (these also serve as the circuits Phase Invertor) 1 x EZ80 1 x ECC83 The speaker is not original, but of the same era. It is in fact a Philips ANILCO 10” and rare, being worth far more that its ELAC original and sounds fabulous. There is a period footswitch, which is of Watkins origin. This is one of the most desirable amps I have had the privilege of restoring and whoever buys this will have something so unique in todays marketplace. |

Watkins | 1960's Left-Hand Rapier 33 Guitar with Deluxe Hardcase |
This has been through the mill cosmetically, since on receipt, it was hand painted and the neck varnish was cracked everywhere. The following has been done:
This particular model of the Rapier 33 is from my perspective the more rarer model, in that it has the 4-position rotary selector switch, unlike most, having the red/black toggle switch. You do not often see a “33” with a rotary switch, which is more akin to the Rapier 44 model. |

Watkins | 1960s Westminster 10W Tremolo Amplifier |
This well-known Watkins amp came in a variety of finishes and control panels. This beauty in Blue/Cream has the smaller control panel with the usual two inputs, both controlled with just a single volume and tone control plus tremolo speed. As usual, this Westminster was configured with 2 x ECL82 power valves, 1 x ECC83 pre-amp/tremolo valve and an EZ80 rectifier. Note the 2 rubber bungs on the control panel – At some stage in its life someone had modded the amp to have 2-separate volume controls. I have taken these out and returned the amp back to its stock configuration. There are a few very ancient wood-worm holes in the front, with no current infestation what-so-ever. Note that during its lifetime a new power transformer was fitted. Still sports the original ELAC speaker, which works fine. A side connection had been put in for an external speaker plug, this was removed and a foot-switch socket installed. The amp will be supplied with a brand new latching foot-switch for the Tremolo function. Nice to see it still has its original Serial Number inside the mains cable recess.
