Vintage 1979 Park Marshall 50w Master Volume 1214 2104 Amplifier
I was recently given the privilege of buying 2x original 1970s Park amplifiers and, as you know, anything Park is worth snatching up! The first one is this 1979 Park Model 1214 (Master Volume) combo, exactly the same as the Marshall 2204 circuit. It’s a real beauty of an amplifier and sounds truly incredible. It is fitted with an earlier matched pair of G12H Celestion T1281 speakers dating to 1976, both with their original 444 cones.
The three original transformers all work well. The power valves are a really nice pair of Mullard XF4 EL34, and the pre-amps are a mixture of 3x replacements. Cosmetically it is in good condition, as you can see, with a few bumps and scrapes. The previous owner touched up / painted over the scuffs, but didn’t do the two back panels (purely cosmetic improvement!). I have had this amplifier serviced to a playable & safe standard, by one of our leading amp techs. To find out more about what the service includes, please check out my terms and conditions before purchasing. The pictures below form part of my description. And, as always, get in touch with me at The Music Locker – I am always willing to do a deal!

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).
We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.
It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.
The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
