Description:

Spotless and hardly played Cornford head. Selling as I am downsizing to the Cornford hurricane. Includes the tough cover, and comes with the power cable, speaker cable and foot switch.

If you are looking at this advert then you probably know how incredible these amps are. If you require further images or info then please let me know.

Collection is from London, U.K., though if you require postage then please send a message and I can provide an estimate cost.

Will consider also selling the Cornford 2x12 featured in some of the pictures together with the head, for £1,700.00 (or £450.00 for the cab on its own).

MK50H II - Story

Following on from the success of the original MK50H, Cornford have created the MK50H II. Completely redesigned, it incorporates the great Overdrive Channel found in the original, with the addition of a seperate Clean Channel, dual switchable and assignable FX loops and bias switchable for 6L6 power valves (supplied as standard) or EL34.

The addition of the seperate clean channel on this amp takes it into the realms of best channel switcher in the world.

If two channels doesn't sound that many, consider the available options...

1) Clean Channel with Master 1
2) Overdrive Channel with Master 1
3) Clean Channel with Master 2
4) Overdrive Channel with Master 2
5) Overdrive Channel with Overdrive switched on through Master 1
6) Overdrive Channel with Overdrive switched on through Master 2

Then add in the two FX loops possibly with eqs/boosts in there... I'm losing count already!
