We bought a new guitar and amp pack for my son on e-bay and it shipped with
an amp rated at 230V, 50-60Hz and a European plug. Is this safe to use in
the UK and will it work in the same way?

It will work fine and is within specification.

However, I believe it is illegal to supply an electrical item in this
country without a UK plug fitted.
