FYD: Getting a Brazillian.....

Here is another one of Dan's awesome handwired Town and Country Steel amp heads from FYD amps in Burlington VT. Octal preamp , KT88 or 6550 or 6L6 power. 70 watts with KT's. Tweed and modified Blackface circuits. The best tube amp for steel I've ever played.
This one is going down to Brazil. The new owner (a brilliant jazz artist) played mine for about a half an hour and then ordered one. I love the cream knobs..hmmmm...

Hey John!
Paul in Brazil here.
I hope you`re well.
Yes....you and your FYD rocked my world that day at your place.
I thank you again for being so sweet to my mom.
Alot has gone down since you posted this in 2013!!
BUT ...I still have the amp.
I will travel up to Dallas in a week or so and thought about repatriating the T&C.
You still use yours?
I wonder how the market is. I have had to pare down on the weight for traveling so I don`t see myself needing the FYD. I love the mid shift for archtop jazz but it`s overkill.
Just ordered a Milkman the Amp 50.
Any idea of what it might be worth?
thanks !
Paul

I have one too! Great amp. Paul send me a message while in Dallas, or just call me at MSA guitars.
