Where do you see rust? Looks cosmetically nice to me.

Hey Dietrich, didn’t know that was you! I see CT on it now. But what I said is still true, there is some rust on it...maybe ETEC can fix it. George Alexandrovich could probably fix it too.
It’s supposed to be a fantastic sounding head. Whoever gets this should look for the matching amp, but will also have to send it out. I saw these heads in person...
Same deal goes for Grampian heads: the coils can be good, but they can sound dark without a proper cleaning inside. So the condition in the listing is represented correctly, because it will need cleaning..but that cleaning has to be done by someone qualified to work on heads
