Fancy giving it to me for free..?

Hi, I have the above that I have used for two years. It's a great little amp and has had NO problems whatsoever. There are the usual wear and tear spots on the carpet covering, plus the "enhance" knob crackles slightly when turned. It's 300 watts total output when hooked up to an 8 ohm cab, or 150 watts on it's own. I had to get rid of my car recently, and trying to get this amp to gigs without transport it a pain in the bum. It weighs about 25kg which has never bothered me before, but for gigs in town I want an amp that I can carry there without my arms feeling like they're going to drop off. Also, I would like a 1x15 speaker instead of the 2x10 as it makes my bass sound warmer. SO, I'm looking for a trade for a 1x15 combo of at least 150 watts, that weighs less than 20kg (or 45lbs). Cheers. Pictures: [url="http://photobucket.com/matt-bass-sparkes"]http://photobucket.c...tt-bass-sparkes[/url]

I have for sale an old-skool Carlsbro Scorpion bass combo amp. I believe this model was made during the late eighties. The bass control knob crackles a little when being turned, but doesn't crackle when it's not being moved ie. when you are playing. This amp is best suited to bedroom practice, or a small rehersal as when you crank it up, it tends to distort and "fart" a little as most small bass amps do. But it sounds nice and rounded at lower volumes. It has bass and treble knobs, and a direct inject and headphone jacks. There is a small tear in the cover mesh on the front, but the speaker is undamaged. I live in Brighton, so pick up only really. £40

Ooh really? Nice one...I didn't realize that

The above for sale.... Obviously I know it's not a true bass pedal, but some of the settings sound surprisingly good All patches/sounds are working. There are a few small scuffs around the casing mainly on the sides, but no cracks. Ask your guitarist if they're interested. £20. (£2 postage). I live in Brighton, so you could collect. If not, I prefer internet banking as payment as there are no fees involved, and it's instantaneous. My ebay ID is matt_s_26 if you want to check my 100% feedback.

There is a very slight alignment issue around the back edge when closing the case, but give it a nudge and once it's closed, it's fine. I have included the 2 locking keys too. Outer measurements are 125cm x 38cm Inner measurments are 123 x 36cm (Body compartment: 57x36cm) [b]£30[/b] I live in Brighton, so pick up would be preferred.
