it seems it was just that one amp.  the rest look to me to be over priced (799 for a 190B).  when I saw your post I quickly looked over ebay for the deal of a lifetime.  not there.

it says the reverb and trem don't work, there were no serials or codes, and it hisses and makes noise.

Yeah, potentially a somewhat expensive repair depending on how many caps/ tubes need to be replaced, etc.

I actually did bid on this head but then got outbidded and said forget it. I used to buy gear for cheap and fix it up but then I started getting a pawn shop of gear that needed to be fixed. Made great money doing so but had no life because all I thought about was getting to work on gear. So whomever got it must have time on their hands.
