What do you think a very clean mid 70's Alembic f-2B is worth?

Recent sale prices for ones on eBay were $600 here in the states, and one going for $888 in Europe.

Now if you add another tube for cathode followers on the outputs, reduce the cathode caps to say 5uf, you could say it has the David Gilmour mods and sell it for maybe a whole lot more.

I sold one last year on ebay. Previous owner had it modified, caps replaced with audiophile stuff. It went for $400. I did take a lot of crap over the fact that it had been modified. Explaining that I didn't do the mods the the Q & A section still took on righteous tone. Apparently these this have a bit of a cult following!

Good luck with the sale.
