This amp was constructed in 1998 during Mark Sampson's tenure at Matchless. At this time we actually have 2 of this very rare head configuration (most coming in heavier combo form), the other listing being a slightly cleaner example, but both delivering 100% quality sound and performance.
Compared to the other early models, the Chieftain stands out for incorporating reverb and an effects loop, thus offering some enhanced versatility. You can be sure of both the quality and collectibility of Sampson era Matchless amps, as they carry an unparalleled prestige amongst modern builders.
