I can't believe this rig is still here! I guess I'm not the only one in need of some cash... Bump!

Bumper!

Bump!

[quote name='rapscallion' timestamp='1329665040' post='1545502'] If I can move my Trace cab on I'll be after this. Have a bump [/quote] Cool. I had temporarily withdrawn it, then I had a sale lined up and it fell through and now it's back up for sale. Great cab still here.

I just added a picture of the whole rig and edited the post. Cheers

[quote name='nobody's prefect' timestamp='1329637112' post='1545019'] I had the Read & PLX combo and it's a rocking combo. Yours is the first series right? Not that there's any sonic difference, just that they've shaved a bit of weight off each generation of the PLX amps, which are fantastic for even professional sound reinforcement applications. If I manage to liquidate enough of my collection at decent prices I'm tempted to buy your Read to be my backup in case mine ever develops a fault. [/quote] Yeah, man. It is indeed a proper bass rig. My QSC is the first series, I can't remember if I bought it in 2001, or 2003. I'm the original owner and never had a problem with it. I took it to be serviced a couple of years ago and all the tech did was to clean it and preventively change the fan. He said it's the only thing he felt necessary since I had been using the amp for so long. About the Read, if I had the money right now, I would pay someone to clone it for me. Like I said, I know there will come a day I'm going to miss having this rig. This is a world tour ready bass rig, but I would say is highly unlikely I would be going on world tour in the near future. Someone out there is going to snatch a wicked rig for a bargain.

I've been forced down the portable amp amp way, so I'm afraid I'll have no use for my trusted power amp any time soon. With that in mind, would it make it a bit more interesting if I included my QSC PLX1602 power amp for an extra £150? If you know how good these amps are, you know this is a bargain. So, for the princely sum of £550, you'll get the ultimate bass amp. With the right cabinet(s), this is a Wembley Stadium worthy rig. Robert DeLeo, from Stone Temple Pilots, uses this very QSC model and his band is properly loud. Reading back, I can't believe I'm letting this go, but I'm afraid it's the only way for me at the moment. Bump for a serious bass rig!

Bump for a wicked cabinet in great condition that's back up for sale!

Thanks for the PM's guys, but this price is final. If you want it without the rack bag and can collect it I will take £20 off the total. That's it. Cheers

Late night bump.

Bump!

Ok. I was about to put the Read up on Ebay, but decided to go for a final reduction over here. I can't stand Ebay, so here you go. £400. Can't go any lower than that. Cheers

Some interest, but no deal closed bump.

Little nightly bump. If anybody out there has a good power amp and wants to have a GREAT bass amp, just buy this and stick on top. If you have a rackmount bass amp with an fx loop and want a superb extra channel, here it is (just use an A/B box). Check the link I added to the original post for some sound samples. Cheers

[quote name='krispn' timestamp='1328750021' post='1532272'] Believe everything you have heard. Bypassed eq with some emphasis and you will not hear a better sounding preamp. I'd have it back in a heartbeat but I'm way too mediocre a player to have such great kit. Bumpt! [/quote] Thanks Gav. Half of me is trying to sell it and the other half is thinking of a plan to try to keep it. Cheers

[quote name='molan' timestamp='1328748839' post='1532261'] These really are supposed to be fantastic pre-amps. I'd love to hear one in action [/quote] Hey Molan! You're welcome to come and try it. If I don't sell it I will be using it for a gig in Clapham on Friday. Come and have a listen!

Bump for edited post with better description and price drop. Hand built, point to point, valve bargain!

[quote name='nobody's prefect' timestamp='1328686061' post='1531023'] This preamp is the best sounding preamp I've had for bass, and am not selling mine. I still haven't checked out the Pope preamp, though. [/quote] Thanks man! Me too. I can see myself in recording session in the future crying for not having mine anymore...
