I've been playing through a Twin Reverb reissue for the past year. I love the tone, but it just doesn't sound as full as I'd like. I guess I just like playing in front of 4 speakers instead of 2.

Anyway, I came across someone selling an all-original 1976 Super Reverb. He doesn't have any pictures of it (he sounds pretty old on the phone), but he says it's in perfect shape. He was originally asking for $850, but he told me that $700 is his rock bottom price.

I did a fair amount of research on the Twins before I got mine, but I don't know much about the Supers. I'm thinking $700 is incredibly cheap if it's in as good of shape as he claims. Is this as good of a deal as I think it is?

I know several people I could unload my Twin on for $650 immediately, so this really isn't gonna cost me anything.

Opinions? Should I go for it?
