The head is provisionally sold. Does anyone in the Northwest want a reliable 4x10 cab for £50?

Up for sale is my we'll used, but ridiculously reliable and great sounding practice amp. It runs at 165w into a 15" speaker, weighs about 24kg and is really versatile. It's got high and low inputs so I've used my electric and upright through it with great effect. The current version is unchanged apart from the front panel design https://www.laney.co.uk/products/rb4/ . It's well used but looked after, the input jack has been replaced but that's really the only change. I used it as a bedroom amp and briefly a stage amp with a drummer. It'll work as a starter or practice amp really well. Located in Manchester, I'll happily deliver locally or leave a courier up to you. Any questions, just ask. Andy.

Down to £300! Anyone?

Price drop to £325 anyone?

I'll be selling my massively trusty Gallien Krueger Head, flightcased with a compressor, going through an ugly, but great sounding 4x10. This has worked flawlessly for 7 years in a variety of bands, but now moving house apparently means I can't have 3 amps anymore. Downsizing is the plan and a shiny new Markbass setup has taken over. It would be great as a practice room amp or touring rig. I've never considered having a backup, but some of the members here have some VERY nice gear. The head is a Gallien Krueger RB 400IV. I bought this years ago second hand as my first 'proper' amp. It's 'only' 180w (8 ohms) or 280w (4 ohms) but it is LOUD. Paired with a big cab, I've never needed more push. As far as I know, it's a Class A style amp, meaning a huge transformer and no Class D overheating issues. . I used to use it with a 2x10 too but gave up as I just didn't need it. It also sounds great, I've had numerous compliments from other bands and soundguys, It's got that lovely GK growl if you need it, but plenty of scope to clean up if you don't. It has a few scuffs as it's been used, some of the tiny button caps have been replaced with 3d printed caps as GK won't send you new ones but it's always been reliable to me. It comes in a solid SKB flight case with lots of spare bolts, as they're American, it's not easy to find those, with a 1U vent hole passing through a pair of custom made Neutrik cables to the compressor through the effects loop; The compressor is a DBX 266XL stereo compressor. I use the channels independently, so usually have the first as a softer compressor/gate and the second with some more aggressive settings. Either or both can be bypassed with a push button on the front for a pure sound. The upshot is you have a very cool lightshow whether it's engaged or not. This all goes through a big old Carlsbro Bass reactor 400. This will never get you any street cred BUT it really sounds great. It'll take 400w into 8 ohms, I think the drivers are eminence Delta's and it's honestly put some much more expensive cabs to shame. It's solidly built (read, 40-odd KG) and would take a beating if you needed a cheaper cab for a tour or practice room. The carpet is a bit scruffy, it's certainly been used but doesn't look too bad and you can always use it as a ladder if needs be. I'm based in Manchester but do travel to Yorkshire regularly, Collection is welcome but local delivery could be negotiated at the buyers cost. I'd prefer to sell as one unit but would consider splitting. As always, I'm open to offers. Kind regards Andy More photos! ;
