Brand New Sunn Sentura 2 for sale. Circa 1972.  Absolutely pristine condition
inside and out. This amp has never been used except for being plugged in.
Looks like it was manufactured yesterday-not a scratch. Boston area

To Rich Briere;
     Maybe I don't realize what I've got. Is it really that desirable? It's been
sitting in my closet for 30 years and is just cluttering up things. I got it when
I was a kid hoping to start a band that never materialized. That's why it's
brand new. How rare do you figure it is?

A pristine old Sunn is rare.
Most of them you find have been played and played.
Gigged and gigged.
That amp is a good reason to start playing again.

Rick...I go along with Greg on this one.....it's an "awakening". It's the "Sultan of Sunn" telling you to rise up, play that thing..and make a name for yourself. :^>)

As far as its $$$ worth: To the Sunn Sickos in here it's worth more than to the world at large. If you were to bring it to any of your local music stores they'd offer you $100 for the whole thing and lead you to believe that they were doing you a favor. If you went along with that, chances are pretty good that the head and cabinet would be sold seperately and poof, there goes another piece of history. :sad:

Old SUNN gear doesn't have many "lovers" for some insane reason. SUNN worshippers are just slightly higher in the collectors food chain than, say, Standel.

Sonically, it'll blow away anything else in its class..or era. Good Stuff!

If you have no use for it, post it for sale in here and see what develops. If it's in good condition I'd recommend that you don't ship it anywhere. Trucks and vintage gear hate one another.

Where are you located?

Bass-ically Yours,
Rich Briere/aka Sunnboy

Rick,

I am interested if you can arrange shipping to Miami. Pics would be nice, otherwise, would appreciate details such as price and tube and speaker complements.

You can also e-mail me at cookfb@state.gov.

Many thanks,

A Sentura II head is what I use for guitar. The head is identical to the Sceptre, which had a 412 cabinet. I don't know what the Sentura cabinet was. Anyone?

It's a sweet head, though. I love the sound, except the reverb is too bright. The mid boost adds a lovely crunch.
