We have a good selection of vintage amps and cabinets by both Orange and Hiwatt. These are the original vintage items rather than those produced now by Gibson and the Audio Brothers. The prices of these amps are significantly lower than those of vintage Marshall and Vox items but the quality is in many cases, higher.
Hiwatt
We always carry the Custom 50 and Custom 100 DR series heads. These are the original, early hand wired heads produced in Hiwatt's glory years. The photo is of an extremely tasty DR series Custom 100 which we have in stock at present. The price is $760 USD including air freight to the USA. The price is the same for the 50 watt models. From time to time, we uncover the 200 watt heads. These are priced at $1200 USD inc.due to their scarcity.
Occasionally, we find classic Hiwatt combos. Currently, we have a nice Hiwatt Custom 100 combo in stock. Please click here for pictures and more information.
I could
not resist putting in a picture of this Hiwatt Custom 200 chassis. Just look at the
beautiful row of KT88's ! This is more like a work of art than a functional piece of
equipment. This was sold to a collector in New Orleans but I am always looking for more.
We always have in stock a number of Hiwatt 4 x 12 cabs from the Dave Reeves era. These are priced at $750 USD for excellent examples with original speakers.

These beautiful
looking heads, combos and cabs are still relatively available here in the UK. The good
news is that despite a strong following among the new "Britpop" movement, the
prices have still remained reasonably affordable. Buy now before the price goes through
the roof !We stock a selection of both Graphic and Overdrive heads. Pictured alongside is
a group of our original, excellent condition Overdrive 120 heads at $760 USD inc. air.
We also sell the classic Orange 4 x 12 cabinets. In good condition with the original greenback speakers with no major cosmetic damage to either tolex or grille cloth, the price is $760 USD inc. air to USA.
The Orange
combo below is an 80 watt, 2 x 12 model. The condition is excellent but not 100% mint and
was sold for $1200 inc. air. The speakers were original Celestion Greenbacks with the
Orange decal present on each. We have several identical Orange 2 x 12 combos currently in
stock at the same price.
Many serious collectors believe that the 1 x 12" 80 watt "Hustler" combo is the best sounding Orange amplifier ever made. To see pictures of this fine amp, please click here.
