I found a Citation II in good condition, described as having hum, but with a complete set of tubes.

I have been in touch with Michael Samra regarding restoration and I look forward to using this amp to stay warm in the fall and winter !!

I have wanted a Citation II for a long time, and several things fell into place to allow for the purchase.

More to follow (I am sure)

Best,

Ross

Congrats!

I saw that one on ebay yesterday. It looks as though it may come with some decent tube as well.

Your in good hands with Mikey.

A Citation is a life time amp. Once you get it and listen to it that's it. You're set for life as far as amps go.

Congrates and Let Mike work his magic on it!!!!

I wish I had one but I went for the VTA ST-70. NO regrets about that one.
