I may need to clear out my Marshall parts bin at these prices!

I wouldn't be so sure this is '68 either. It's late '68 if so.

Very interesting! That's the board I've sold him through eBay a while ago:

He only soldered the mid pot back, which I'd sniped out, but attached into the parcel and he screw in the chrome nuts from the input jacks, which I'd also attached...

Really funny

Ah ha!

So it is '69.

I really don't remember exactly, whether it's been a '68 or a '69 Marshall! Maybe he's right and I was wrong, as I've written '69 in my auction

But I've already sold a couple more of Marshall boards through eBay. Interestingly all went into the USA

Wow - he didn't half put a hefty markup on it!

My 72 Super bass has those same blue capacitors. While dealing with my capacitor problem on the other mutant amp I noticed one has a crack between the blue and white halves of the capacitor. See picture of the ebay amp to see the ones I'm talking about.
It's a 22u 1000v cap.

Doesn't this board seem to have .1 uF phase inverter input caps??? Doesn't that make it a Superbass???

Just to make something clearer:

All Marshalls do have a .1 PI input cap - to the grid of the second system, and a .022 input cap to the grid of the first system.

You were speaking "input caps" but meaning "output caps", the coupling caps to the control grids of the power tubes.

And right, these are in this case .1, so it's a Superbass.

you can also tell because it's from a '69 yet has shared V1 cathode and no bypass cap over V2's cathode

Just to be a snob, the slope is clarly 56k. 33k is three orange stripes.

Don't anybody bid on this; this blatant profiteering, however in the spirit of American entrepreneurialism, must not be a success to keep prices lower for us poor slobs!
