Blackstar Artisan 15 Watt 1x12 Boutique Handwired Combo in Kirkstall, West Yorkshire for sale

The specs / blurb are below: I'm selling as I'm not using it much at the moment and want to downsize (in fact I may accept an amp swap* + cash deal. I'm also open to other reasonable cash offers) It's a heavy beast but sounds incredible. I've gigged it a few times and it's had a decent amount of use in the studio / rehearsal room but is in fantastic condition. It's a high end, professional amp that has a sound that can fill any medium sized gig even without mic-ing up. Comes with black vinyl cover which has some scuffs, unlike the amp which is pristine. These amps retail at £999 and rarely come up for sale second hand, therefore they keep their value! Any questions, please email.
