Sound City Mark 6 SC30C

Neat little 30W rms 1 x 12 all valve (tube) Combo, using 2 12ax7s and 2 6L6 valves. Has a clean and an overdrive channel, comes with footswitch. Has one input.
Controls: Switch for Clean/Overdrive, Clean Volume, Overdrive Gain, Overdrive Level, Reverb (Accutronics Spring reverb). 3-Band EQ, Standby switch and Mains switch, red light when mains on.
Jacks: Input, FX Send, FX Return, Footswitch, Speaker Output. Constructed with birch plywood so it should last. Has a 70's vintage appearance with decent tolex. Single carry handle that looks like it might last well.
Downside: It will certainly have been made in the far east and has printed circuits within. Big drawback in the single input, so can't strum and sing together. Despite that I'll give it 9 as it's got everything you'd need for a small combo at a very good price.

Scores big here... very impressive sound for the size, doesn't hum or hiss unless I get my strat '62 RI too close (few feet) when you get hum (which you would... it's a strat!).

Clean stays clean most the way round the dial. The overdrive is good, but doesn't compete with a blues driver or ts9 on the clean.

Useful for small gigs - used it in a hall which holds maybe 150 and had it on 4 with another guitarist and a bass. That said, it's a 1x12 (8 ohm 50w ceramic speaker), so it won't do for a rock group unless you P.A it (I've noticed that a lot of folk do, especially with old ad30's).

can't say, only 6 months old

Haven't used them

This is a great solution for small venues and bedroom. Yeah I'd replace it with the same if lost. I've a 1970 Miles Platting pin to pin with 4x12 greenbacks for bigger stuff which is a pain to move around. Having tried some smaller solid state stuff - including Orange, WEM, Marshall and Ashdown I'm glad I spent more for the tubes, the sound is worth it.
