Included in the Mt. Rushmore of classic British amps is the Hiwatt Custom 50w. This one is all original top to bottom, and is technically badged as a DR-505, which is simply a Canadian designation for the DR-504. The late 70's Hiwatt amps are often the better sounding models, according to players in the know, and this one has a brilliant sounding crunch once driven. It shows signs of previous wear, and still looks great - with no significant rips or tears of any kind. 
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
