Park P45/100 Hand Wired Amp Head (Mitch Colby) RARE (Serial No 5/10) Holy Grail! NOS Parts

Super rare head, hand built by Mitch Colby. This is serial number 5 out of 10 EVER made. Collector grade condition, a must have for any serious Park amp collector.

Specs from Park:
The Park 45/100 is a newly built limited-edition version of the "100" watt amps made famous in 1966 by such players as Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix at Monterey, early Pete Townshend and Malcolm Young. It is a more powerful Park 45 with four KT66s in a bigger head cabinet with huge transformers and high voltages that produces guitar tones like no other amp. Its sound is full and harmonically rich with a big bottom end that bloom as notes are sustained. It has a wonderful sound of its own that is not as tight or aggressive compared to the later 100W amps produced from 1967 and later. Only ten of these limited amps will be made by Mitch Colby in his New York workshop. This is THE DEFINITIVE recreation of this unique and special amplifier.

The head is a physical and sonic recreation of the original Park version down the head box size, vintage correct NOS resistors (mostly Piher), vintage correct NOS signal capacitors (mostly Phillips mustard caps), and white "banana" knobs. However, we've updated it where it counts; for reliability and convenience. Improved features include a much stronger aluminum chassis with welded corners, heavy duty output transformer brackets, double top vents for improved air flow, the internal fuse was brought to the exterior and the insanely high voltages have been slightly tamed for longer tube life and reliability. Merren custom clone power and output transformers top off this sonic beauty.

About Park:
Park amps are newly manufactured guitar amps that faithfully recreate the sound, feel and look of some of the best British made amps from the 1960s and 1970s. The first available amps use the traditional 45 and 50 circuits that have been made classic on so many of the best blues and rock recordings from the 1960s through the present. The man behind Park is Mitch Colby who had a 30 year relationship with two of the most iconic British amp companies. After a long career with Unicord and Korg USA, the exclusive US distributors of Marshall and VOX, he started Colby Amplification in 2012. Park became part of Colby in 2013. Mitch has since introduced a few models of Colby and Park amps that have already been added to the tone arsenals of collectors, tone aficionados and touring artists alike.
