Yes it is

Ooh very nice too - what’s its weight please? Sorry had to ask!!

Any hum on it Geoff?

The original bridge is back on so it’s all back to stock.

Sorry I won’t ship abroad too heavy and too risky.

Price reduced

Lovely they definitely have a look of the Shergold Marathon about them!

It’s a similar weight to my Markbass mini combo. It’s a one hand lift but I reckon around 14kgs. It’s a bit of a beast but the components are very high quality and the amp is in a brushed steel chassis.

It’s 48cms - 19” wide, 34cms - 13” deep and 20cms - 8” height

Yup!

Trace Elliot Twin Valve Head in official cabinet/sleeve. This is an extremely powerful amp with amazing tone and versatility. Modestly rated at 115 watts it will blow many modern amps out of the water in terms of punch and volume. The build quality is near military spec - it’s heavy duty and over engineered. An old school and industrial looking UK made vintage amp. It’s all original as far as I can see and has just come back from being serviced after a quarantine at a cost of £85 with a clean bill of health. It has the typical low transformer hum of an old valve amp. I think it’s late 80’s so now around 30 years old! It must be an early model as it doesn’t have the balanced DI. There are a few reviews on here of people’s experiences of these amps. I don’t want trades and I’m also against shipping it as it’s very heavy as you would expect. I’d prefer the potential buyer to try it out so I’m happy for you to collect at an acceptable social distance from my front garden after I demo it. Only selling as I’ve bought an old AC50 setup. For obvious reasons no none UK sales. More pictures added - the Markbass cab or Jennings cab are not included of course! £295 Thanks for looking!

I’d buy your red one!

Yes I’ll do that tomorrow in daylight. Meanwhile here is a picture of the circuit I took whilst cleaning the bass and also the jack socket compared to my 79 P bass.

This Precision Special has one of the nicest necks I’ve played equal to my ‘79 Precision which is my go to bass. It has lots of dings as it’s been a well loved and gigged bass. There’s nothing structural, the truss rod and frets are fine, the finish still looks fantastic but there are dings. Pickups and circuitry are original, the passive active mini toggle is a bit ‘thumpy’ when you switch it but it works fine. Both active and passive sound great. The output jack is scratchy but it’s easily replaced and I’ll include an old spare I got but never got round to fitting. Some of the gold plate has worn with age and use. Crucially it’s heavy but not as heavy as most of these as they average between 10 and 13lbs. My white one was 12! This one is 10.5 or 4.8kgs in new money. On a decent strap it really is a comfy bass to play. It’s not a boat anchor but it’s no lightweight either. What you get is an incredibly punchy sound with bags of sustain and a very nice rare finish with matching headstock. The bass comes with Fender case that has a bit of a smoker’s smell to it. NB there’s a little plastic plugged area near the toggle switch where I assume a LED had been fitted at some stage although this would not be stock. I’m not looking for swaps or daft offers I don’t need to sell for financial reasons but do need to adhere to my one in one out policy. I also will not send it outside the UK please don’t be offended by this it’s just not something that I do. Back up for sale. I’d consider a swap for a passive Precision from this era. Now sold
