nah its too wide, 24 inches in fact Oh well I think I will just swap it for a cab and use the ashdown

It does slide out. You just remove the four bolts from the top. Although looking at it I am wondering whether it might be too wide. As you can see below It has vents at the ends so the panel looks longer than yours, I will have to measure it. The Speaker chasis isn't the original. I replaced it about 6 months ago with a 300 watt Mackenzie. Ive bought an Ashdown off the market place on here. Its in a 6 unit rack & I'm picking it up on sat morning. If I can put my trace in with it along with a tuner and a 31 band graphic I will be over the moon

Iv'e just emailed them asking if I can order one from them directly. I added my mail address at the bottom just in case they decide to send me one

I noticed just now that I have lost the red cap off the volume knob, it must have fell off at a gig over the weekend. Anyone know where I could get one of these? Its an older model 7125 SM 300. I doubt Trace Elliott would have one but surely there must be one somewhere

Has that trace got seprate rack ears on it or are they part of the front panel?

That looks exactly like the amp in My Trace Combo. It has given me an idea. I could take it out of the cab and rack it instead of selling it, I never thought of that, then I would have two rack amps just case one goes down. Good thinkin Batman

If its good enough for Stanley its good enough for me

[quote name='SteveK' date='Jul 1 2008, 07:53 PM' post='230836'] I am assuming that we are all talking about using a fairly decent standard of equipment - in good working order. [b]*You will not get a 5 grand sound out of a £200 rig*[/b] That works both way btw I have heard players get a £200 sound out of a 5 grand rig

lol i wasnt expecting this many replies! i only posted cos i was bored and had only a few minutes befoe realised that i don't remember last time i changed the EQ on my amp. so you guys who are saying that the sound comes from the player... are you saying that if you don't like your tone you're screwed? [b]Not at all, the sound comes with exerience[/b] and when people are saying there's nothing like a precision with a pick, its all in their head? [b]No but thats also a different style as well as a different sound. a precission with a pick can usually be copied by a good player with another bass and a pick[/b] or when they say musicman basses cut through the mix better? and you're trying to say its pointless spending a grand on a custom bass when you can pick one up for £50 off ebay and get the same tone? [b]No because obviously the better the pick ups the easier it is to get a good sound and the better its made the easier it will be to play. Althoughthats not always the case, I have had cheap instruments that were everybit as easy to play as instruments 5 times the cost[/b] i think not.

[quote name='6stringbassist' post='230460' date='Jul 1 2008, 12:32 PM']That's what I say, your 'sound' is a combination of the strings, the bass, cable, amp and speakers. How you play, ie your fingers, how soft or hard your attack, playing position etc, have an affect on that sound, but they're not actually creating it. Change any part of the setup, and you'll change your sound.[/quote] That only applies if you don't have the skill and experience to change the sound using only your experience and technique. Obviously if your playing through a ten watt practice amp you wont get it sound like a bg rig. But i would be pretty suprised if most very experienced players can't get the same sound out of any semi decent instrument through a half decent rig

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='230047' date='Jun 30 2008, 09:03 PM']What? What sort of a conclusion is that? Sorry but I'm not going through nine pages of argument to settle on something so pathetically fluffy as "We're all right in our own way". I'm right and you're wrong, in our own way. How about that?[/quote] but you can't be right if I am can you. So the logical conclusion is I'm right..................IMHO
