1974 Hiwatt DR-103 100W Guitar Amplifier Head

In on consignment! 

We here at the shop have been blessed with another pillar of what helped define the sound of electric guitar and rock. This 1974 Hiwatt DR-103 is pretty much all original except for the Quad of JJ EL34's and a Bias Capacitor. Famed for its legendary high-headroom, pristine sound, immediate response, remarkable sonic depth and detail, the classic Dave Reeve's circuit has stood as a colossal presence in both recording and live performances for over six decades.

This iconic British sound has earned the trust of musicians and engineers across generations.
