Amplifiers & Preamps1997 Matchless Lightning Prototype
The very first Lightning Reverb. This is from Willie's personal collection. Made by Matchless founder (and Willie's pal) Mark Sampson. The knobs are rel-labelled on top of the amp in sharpie on masking tape same as the day Willie bought the amp from Mark himself. 15 watts class A, huge tone and bass response like no other amp. All-original with 2x10" British-made Celestion speakers. Transformer label says "prototype" handwritten by Mark Sampson with a date of 6/26/97. A really cool piece of rock history and might be the perfect all-around amp for volume and tone. One of one with original embroidered Willie's logo and letter from Willie. New lower price! $2900 On Hold
