Go back and ask him for a set of chord charts.

Little Giant 2x500w would be a great amp for a Trace BFC.

If its a bog standard SR4 pick-up with 2 wires and no coils switching then there is no reason why it shouldn't be used in passive mode. I tried an SR5 like that (hard wired for parallel) and it was fine. It'll still have that distinctive Stingray tone but you'll have to tweak the amp some to get a real Ray sound.

So the question is "Should I mod the cab to make it 2 x 8-ohms" and then try and sell it? -
[quote name='minty fresh death' post='175776' date='Apr 13 2008, 07:04 PM']So from your description, I can ascertain that it is a 2 Ohm cab??[/quote] I would have to say no. As made it has 3 sets of speakers, each of 4-ohms. The AH-1000 had 3 power amps 2x250watt and 1x 500-watt. I've thought out the various permutations and concluded that you could: Parallel the two 2x10s and putting them in series with the 1x15 you would get 6-ohms. This would work well with a decent solid-state amp. Put the two 2x10s in series to give 8-ohms and drive them from one channel of a power amp. Run the 1x15 from the other channel. Put the two 2x10s in series to give 8-ohms. Change the 1x15 to a 8-ohm driver. Put the 10s in parallel with the 15 to get 4-ohms. The possibilities are endless but you can never get 2-ohms. Where would you like it delivered?

The mother and father of Trace Elliot speaker cabs. The reason/project for which I bought this has gone away so it's up for sale. Originally designed to work with the AH-1000 head it comprises 2 x (2x10-inch plus horn, 250-watt, 4-ohm) and 1 x 1x15-inch, 500-watt, 4-ohm. It would a simple matter to change the the 15-inch driver to an 8-ohm unit and rewire the 10s to give a total 4-ohm cab. £250 . Most certainly collect only or I can deliver with 100-miles of Farnham/Guildford for cost of the diesel.

This time it's a 3U Flightcase Warehouse Case with a 300mm centre box section. Rack strip only a front. £50 posted or collect. -
Continuing my massive clearout I have another 4U Flightcase Warehouse rack. This one has a 500mm centre box section and rack strip at the front only. In very good condition as very little use. £50 posted or you can collect. -
When I bought this a few years ago it was advertised as having been made for Tom Hamilton. Root beer body and gold plated hardware. A couple of dings but otherwise excellent condition. It's not had a dard life and plays beautifully. Scratch plate is now back to the original black. Unfortunately I've never been able to prove it.

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='173905' date='Apr 10 2008, 01:43 PM']How much?[/quote] I can't remember what the last one went for on UK eBay but I reckon it's got to be worth £100 of anyone's money. I shall put it in my eBay shop very soon.

[quote name='Mike' post='173747' date='Apr 10 2008, 10:42 AM']Looks great! Did you have to replace the pickguard to get rid of the screwholes?[/quote] yes the screw-holes, not to mention the rather large cut-out. Not Blasphemy Joe. Just personal preference.

I finally bit the bullet and took out the Dark Star and fitted a Wizard Thumper. Call me old fashioned but I must say I like the sound and it's a joy to play. A P-bass with a super-slim jazz neck, unlike my '78 P with the broom-handle jazz neck. Before After In order to give the pick-up screws somewhere to bite I had to glue in a piece of wood to fill up the extra route for the DS so no going back. Anyone want to buy a Dark Star?
-
I bought the stock Lindy Fralin pick-up for this from Peter with a view to putting it into my DD. In the end I've fitted a Wizard Thumper. Whoever buys this bass can buy the Lindy at what I paid for it plus postage and put it back to original.
-
Very Good Steve. Good luck with it.

Thanks to all who have responded. I feel like a Call Centre with 4 potential buyers all held in an orderly queue.

[quote name='jake_tenfloors' post='172848' date='Apr 9 2008, 08:54 AM']Absoluetly no trades what so ever? i really really want one of these but have nothing in the way of cash. -Jake[/quote] I'm after a new bass and unfortunately the manufacturer doesn't take cabs, or anything else for that matter, in part exchange.

Since I got my two 1x12s I haven't gigged this cab in over 2 years. I'm no longer gigging regularly so reluctantly I'm going to have to let it go. £500 including custom soft cover. No offers or trades please.

I've been approached by a member to supply some long mains leads. I can get some 6-metre moulded leads but like all things the more you buy the better the price and the lower the postage. Anyone interested in any at £5-each plus postage from me to you?

[quote name='The Burpster' post='171783' date='Apr 7 2008, 09:32 PM']Dave, Whilst that twin from Maplin isn't cheap, it would make a fantastic start for the effects loop? BTW what braided sheath did you use? I can blagg Blk Nylon stuff from my dads old employer (the stuff they used to make up welding cables with- same idea different leads....) but wondered if you had some 'pretty' stuff... ? Bob.[/quote] No just the black ribbed. Alright I lied about the ribbing.

[quote name='OldGit' post='171767' date='Apr 7 2008, 09:18 PM']Tried OBBM?[/quote] Yes he has. Studiospares do a very acceptable Stereo Mic cable which I have used for stereo guitar leads. Also I have a drum of stereo cable with two individually screened cable inside a single round jacket. Great for stereo jack cables but no good if you want to come out to separate jacks.
