Well I went and gave it a tryout. This is a small Guitar Center so they don't have a "vault". They set me up in a lesson room. And I dimed the thing. I quickly found out that there were lessons going on in the neighboring rooms, and I was asked to turn it down
I had heard enough anyways. It's sufficiently bad ass. Found out that the cabinet is actually a 4x10", and it has a surprising amount of balls to it. I wasn't expecting much out of 10s, but I was pleasantly surprised. It appears to be unmodded, no extra inputs, outputs, or knobs.
So I bought the head and the cab
They had both the A and B cabinets for it, but I just couldn't bring myself to have a full stack of 10" speakers. So I just got the A cab. I feel kinda bad for breaking up a 20 year old set, but oh well.
They totally tried to rip me on my DSL. They offered $250 for it. No way. So I figured I'd troll around here and see if anybody is interested in it. If not, I can try Reverb. But I did give up my Traynor YCV80 and my HotPlate for way too little money. I didn't feel as bad about that. They just really suck at buying gear. And I wanted this amp.
I got it home, cranked it up, fed some pedals to it, and it's just awesome. This is basically all I was using my DSL for, to crank up and feed it an overdrove. This 2204S is so much better at it than the DSL is. I opened the chassis to take a few pics. The board is a little warped, but it seems to be in good shape otherwise. I did notice a few markings that indicated that a component might go there, but no component to be found...I don't know if that's for a different variant of this amp, or if it was modded. It looks like there was never a part in those places, no burns or excess solder. I'll post a few pics later if anybody in the know might advise.
