I have not found much information about James Burgess built amps or preamps. Would appreciate information about his preamps as well as his 2A3, PX25 or 45 amplifiers. These are the SET amps I am thinking about. Would like to know about build quality, sound, price, and such.
Hmm. I have a pair of amplifiers that I was told were made by James Burgess. They started life as Wurlitzer organ amps, but got modified to use 45s as SETs. The mod was done a long time ago- all of the wiring inside is done with cloth covered wire.
They came from an estate a good five years ago. The owner used them with a pair of Coral Betas which I also picked up.
