Selling a 2009 Ceriatone Lightning 15W Tube Amp with w 1x12 Speaker Cabinet.

Original specification of the amp can be viewed here:

http://www.ceriatone.com/productSubPages/Muchle$$Lightning/Muchle$$LightningCabinet.htm

This is a reproduction of Matchless's Lightning series.

3 Preamp tubes - V1, V2, V3 (12ax17)
2 Poweramp tubes - El84s
1 Tube Rectifier - GZ34.
1/2 Power mod - 7 1/2w / 15w

Modifications done by Goose.
1) Bright caps mod (removed).
2) PPIMV-Master volume mod.

This amplifier takes an assortment of tube swaps, headroom and breakup can be adjusted by swapping 12ay7 and 12at7 in the preamp stage. Tone is hard to describe but it's very good for clean chime with sweet overtones and lingering blooms. The tube rectifier stage adds a tonal dimension that will definitely please your ears. Good for recording, gig-use, home practice and tube-tone enthusiasts. Break-up tone is warm and still carries a bite for single-coil lead play.

The semi-open cabinet houses a 1x12 Celestion G12H 30W 70th Anniversary Special Ed. speaker. Specifications are here: http://celestion.com/product/17/g12h_anniversary/ Loud and proud would be the perfect way to describe the dynamics of this speaker, clear, musical with warm harmonic overtones.

In the last pic, I removed the backplate of the amp's cabinet for better cooling. Backplate and screws will definitely be part of the deal.

Option 1: Total package for S$1080. Comes with 3 preamp JJ tube, 2 Russian El84 and 1 JJ GZ34.

Option 2 (SHIOK!): Total package for S$1300. Comes with 01 Tung-sol 12AX7, 01 PENTA 12AX7 and 01 JAN 12AT7, 02 RCA NOS El84s and 01 MULLARD NOS GZ34 Tube Rectifier.


You'll definitely need to try the amp out, bring your guitar (solid-body, semi, boutique or otherwise) and pedalboard and give it a shot. Not looking at trades, full or partial. Consolidating funds for new amp :cool:

Please text/ring/watsapp 90477651 to arrange to try out. (Bishan).
