Description from the seller

Marshall Studio Vintage SV20H valve head, 20 W

Marshall Studio Vintage SV20H valve head that encapsulates the mythical and roaring tone of the legendary 1959 Super Lead "Plexi" in a compact 20W-friendly format, perfect for both the recording studio and the stage. All-tube (combining 3 x ECC83 and 2 x EL34), it offers the possibility to reduce power to 5W to achieve a creamy, rich saturation even at bedroom volumes.

Features the classic four inputs for the legendary 'jumper' (patching) linking between channels and an integrated effects loop.

Founded in London in 1962 by Jim Marshall (known as "The Father of Loud"), the company literally shaped the sound of rock music. Born to meet the demands of the young guitarists of the era who sought a louder, more distorted and aggressive sound than the American amplifiers of the time, Marshall created stacks that became the visual and sonic symbol of rock 'n' roll in the world’s largest stadiums.

The original 1959 SLP circuit that this SV20H head draws inspiration from was the fundamental pillar of legendary gear. By purchasing this head, you connect directly to the sonic DNA of:
• Jimi Hendrix: who redefined playing electric guitar through his Plexi walls.
• Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin): who carved the most iconic riffs in rock history with the natural overdrive of these amplifiers.
• Angus Young (AC/DC): whose pure, crunchy, bright, effects-free sound is the very emblem of the Marshall Plexi.
• Slash (Guns N' Roses), Eric Clapton (during the Cream period) and Eddie Van Halen: who based their historic and revolutionary "Guitar Tone" on this identical valve architecture.

Lot conditions:
The amplifier is in excellent cosmetic and functional condition, nearly like new. Tubes remain lively and performing at 100%. Shipped with power cable. Professional packaging and insured worldwide shipping.
Purchased by my son for €930, I’m selling it as he moved abroad to live.

Seller's Story

Welcome to our Catawiki store. Our journey in online sales began back in 2004, driven by a clear vision: creating online auctions dedicated to high-value objects. Today, more than twenty years later, we carry forward that exact same vision. We are proud to have remained a small, family-run business, yet operating with the solidity and scale of major industry professionals: each year, we welcome more than 100 new clients, purchase over 150 lots, and select between 3,000 and 5,000 unique items to offer you. Our commitment is reflected in everything we do, from the initial find to the final delivery to your doorstep: • A Purchase with Social Value: Buying from us means securing a great deal while actively supporting the future of young Italian students. We collaborate closely with 3 graphic design and advertising schools in Milan, Bergamo, and Lecco. We invest our time and expertise to teach these students the secrets of online sales, professional photography, and marketing. By choosing us, you are tangibly contributing to their education and career paths. • Field Research and Discovery: For years, we have been personally scouting the most remote locations across Lombardy to find unique pieces, rarities, oddities, and mid-century modern design. • We Invest Our Own Capital: We do not sell on consignment. We invest our own capital upfront to purchase and restore every single item, taking on all the risks ourselves. • Direct Dealings with No Intermediaries: We manage every single price personally. This allows us to eliminate third-party costs and ensure you get the best possible profit margin as a buyer or collector. • Meticulous Restoration and Quality Control: We get our hands dirty. Every item is carefully restored and verified with an obsessive eye for detail before going up for auction. • Secure and Eco-Friendly Shipping: To prevent inflated shipping costs and ensure indestructible packaging, my wife and I head out almost every evening, often at unusual hours, to collect heavy-duty industrial cardboard from businesses in our neighborhood. We hand-select only pre-evaluated, ultra-resistant materials to offer you maximum protection at the lowest possible cost. Choosing our lots means relying on the historic expertise of a family that has lived this passion since 2004, while investing in the next generation. Our schools and students thank you deeply for your trust. Happy bidding!
