Clayton's family has asked me to assist them sell some of his equipment.
100% of the proceeds from this sale will go directly to Clayton's family.

Rare Custom Woo Audio WA4
with original box.
This example was made by Jack Wu for Clayton to his specification which included some upgraded components and omitting the speaker taps.
Pictures show the amp is built on the same chassis as the standard amp, and that Jack capped the speaker output and speaker/headphone switch holes.

Like most of Clayton's equipment, this amp looks and sounds great.
This is also the densest amp I've ever seen, weighing a hefty 35 lbs in spite of the small footprint.
Asking $1050 plus actual shipping cost.
Please PM with any questions.

Following is a description of the amplifier from Jack Wu:

Here are some info about the WA4.

It was introduced in 2008, priced at $1399. It is a excellent sounding amp and people will find it very valuable at today's high end audio price. I would sell it at the 2nd hand market at $1500. The tubes are easy to find and all self-replaceable.
