It does look a mess, but it's restorable and probably worth doing (if one is keen).I wouldn't give them tuppence for it, it's a right mess

You're slipping up there Bev. The first is a Mk.1 (and looks rather nice), the second is 'spares' and the third is an A21a that sold for over £500.

Ooops, I'm no Sugden expert, as you can see, but surely there isn't much in it is there ?You're slipping up there Bev. The first is a Mk.1 (and looks rather nice), the second is 'spares' and the third is an A21a that sold for over £500.
The only one I have some experience of is the A21A, and it was a superb amp... used it with a pair of Shahinian Arc's... just couldn't afford the kit at the time...
Also the original add for this nasty looking one does say: "I can confirm that the power light illuminates when it's plugged in but as I cannot lay my hands on a 5-pin Din-plugged cable I do not know if it still functions or not"
So I'd consider that as 'spares or repair' only...

I dare say, but if I hadn't got other things in the pipeline, I'd consider it myself. It ain't going to be dear to buy.

Knowing ePay... I bet it goes for a decent price... it still has 14hrs to go .. I'll keep an eye on it..
Is it a good amp then Geoff ? better than a A21A ?

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Yes and no. It's decent enough, but not true Class A like the A21, let alone the A21A. I've had the Mk.1 and it's quite pleasant. This later Mk.II is just a styling revamp basically (not a very good one), but the poor old thing deserves better than to go to the tip.
