Ugghhhhh looks like it was painted with a brush directly onto the wood.This is *not* a good deal. I reckon most here know about the Harrison family, the infamous Music Ground store on Denmark Street (now called Hanks) and the theft, shady practices and counterfeit goods from there. I'm not here to ruin their reputation any more, I doubt it's possible. This had me scratching my head though:
Vox AC30 1961 - Blue Boy , Rare
BLUE BOY We are happy to offer the following that is one of the Rarest of all Vox Amplifiiers as was one of only a small number that was produced for show , artist purposes in its original Blue Smooth Tolex , details as follows VOX AC30 1961 ( Circa ) Blue Tolex White RS Grill Red Panel...www.denmarkstreetguitars.co.uk
Note the "smooth blue tolex" they mention in the description. Is it just me or is there no tolex whatsoever??
$5544.00 in what universe?

Well, legend has it that the Harrisons are at large again and "Hanks" is just another layer. They still own The British Pedal Company and another brand, too. They got extremely rich doing this, so apparently people do just splurge out on the so-manieth Woodstock Superlead if the seller presents it right. To be fair, The British Pedal Company aren't doing shady business, they're just massively overpriced. Hundreds of quid for a 'hand selected germanium diode' and so on. What they deliver is a decent enough product overall, just insanely expensive.
...back to that lovely speciment... I mean, that cabinet could be a 2020 model, stripped and done over with watercolour for all I can see. The chassis and iron are what you pay for. 5.5K is crazy.
