  1. [quote name='tayste_2000' post='604571' date='Sep 21 2009, 02:23 PM']You love it, Monz was there today and Jeff said someone from BC was enquiring and knew us both. I'm going to call him today about a 2x12 cab they are stunning for people that want a loud sound in a tiny package and for £399 that I think he charges for them there is nothing out there as good, as cheap. Also (I'd have to check with Monz) but I think he said something about offer 10% off for Basschatters, defo on that 2x12. Bring the Matamp love, now to just buy that pesky GT200 head[/quote] That was me. He Said about Monz and then suggested a i contact Steve Taylor from BC. I said i know Steve Taylor I asked about a 212 but he was reluctant to quote me a price but for £400 that's just silly! How much were the 410?
  2. i spoke to jeff today. Took me 30 mintes to get off the phone!!!! I am seriously considering getting a GT200
  3. are you willing to post it?
  4. I've shipped them for under a tenner. It could be an option and normally brings in more buyers but collection is easier

[quote name='orangepeelneil' post='597655' date='Sep 13 2009, 08:29 PM']Hello everyone, I’m downsizing to a 2x10” combo due to limited car/home space and reduced power needed for current gigs, so both my amp and cab is for sale. This Hartke 5550 and Marshall VBC 410 has been my setup for the last year or so providing up to 500W (at 4ohms) of satisfying bass power. [u] Hartke 5500[/u] The amp is well used (but not abused) and has scratches and dings. It has never let me down. I bought it as Jack Bruce uses one and haven’t been disappointed, these are great pro amps and are still in the current Hartke range. A good gigging amp. The amp works great, plenty of useable feature and immense headroom with a four Ohm cab. I’ve done at least 30+ gigs and loads of rehearsals with this amp and it has never let me down or disappointed me, a pretty transparent amplifier. Both cooling fans are noisy- this Hartke trait. It has never caused me bother as I’ve used it pretty loud, so the fan noise is trivial. I’ve also used this in the studio and the fan noise wasn’t a problem at the volume levels we played and recorded at. One l.e.d on the 10 band eq slider is out, again never bothered me These may be things the buyer wants to resolve-and are reflected in the price. The amp comes with original box and instructions. Spec:- *500 Watts of power at 4 ohms, 350W at 8 ohms *Tube and solid state preamp sections *Passive and active input sections *Bass, treble, and contour controls *10-band graphic EQ *Variable compression *XLR direct out *Effects loop *Vintage-style cabinet enclosure The cheapest net price =£475.00 (GAK.co.uk) [b]£175.00[/b] [u]Marshall MBC410 [/u] The cab is good condition, well gigged but solid and complete and has scratches and dings. It too has never let me down. 4x10”, 4 Ohm cab rated at 600W with switch-able HF horn.Solid kickproof steel grill. These cabs do not come with castors (crazy!) So I’ve added a proper ply castor wheel board (see pictures), which I have found indispensable moving this cab around. The wheelboard is fixed through the cab with solid M8 stainless steel bolts/spring washers and nuts. I think these cabs are MDF and weigh a fair bit; screws would simply come away or break off. Spec: - * Bass reflex cabinet * 600 Watt Power (RMS): * 4 x 10” * Switch-able HF Horn * Impedance: 4 Ohms * x1 Speakon connector * x 1 1/4 inch jack speaker connector * Dimensions: 630 x 720 x 410 mm * Weight: 42.5 Kg Cheapest net price =£234.00 (Soundslive.co.uk) [b]£125.00 [/b] Collection from Central Bristol (BS3). I may consider postage if a good deal is struck, but would rather demo the unit to avoid problems. Cheers Neil[/quote] Interested in the amp and i work up the road in filton. PMing!
  6. [quote name='Musicman20' post='586577' date='Sep 1 2009, 03:19 PM']Its a very good small lightweigh head to give you some grunt/tubey overdrive.....it does sound similar to the AD200b, but without the pure tube grunt. Im getting one anyway purely because it works very well. Very light, very small, damn loud. You will like it if you like some gain. It also sounds a lot better than I imagined clean. It doesnt do the full on tube grind like a tube amp would do, but its close enough! Fat, and dirty, thats what it sounds like.[/quote] Thanks! Good enough for me. GAS here i come
  7. sounds good. I may have to purchase a bass terror. As you've got an AD200 i woul be interested in a tone comparision. I know its not going to be the same but how close is it, if at all.
  8. if you're not listening for it you can easily miss it
  9. and the report.............................
  10. its a great place to visit and the cafe next door does a great fry up

  13. Well i've got the compact although whilst i was getting it of Mr. Garcia some backed into my car and cracked the bumper
  14. interested to know what the Terror bass is like

  17. [quote name='Rich' post='547807' date='Jul 22 2009, 04:35 PM']Anyone else spot the irony here..? [/quote]i agree both have adverts but i've enjoyed reading Bass Player and not BGM. My choice, my opinion.

  20. [quote name='nick' post='572425' date='Aug 17 2009, 11:51 PM']The Digitech Bad Monkey is cheap, has not a bad sound & not too extreme .[/quote] that would be my pick too
