Jumping someone else's train - The Cure

Very nice bass, is it the German or Korean version?

[/quote] I'd use a CTM 100 at least, just to keep a bit of clean headroom. Which is what I'll be doing tonight ... If you like total tube fuzz then try the LB.

It's a Trace Elliot AH600-12 and it's started to make a strange rumbling sound, like distant thunder/wind. I've spoken to Stoneham and explained the situation. They are quite happy to take a look so it's getting dropped off tomorrow. Cheers Bren

Thanks chaps. I'll speak to both and see what they say.

No one?

Who is excellent at repairing SS amps in North East?... Urgent. Not Cameron Electronic. After taking a look inside he didn't want to take it apart. Possible gig next Thursday could do with it back sharpish. Cheers Bren

Yak

Want.

[quote name='hubrad' timestamp='1472849999' post='3124878'] I got a TE AH250SMX new in the early 90s, and it's still very much alive! Last year I just wanted more headroom for one band in particular, and after much thought, discussion and agonising I took the plunge with a GK Fusion 550 from Bassgear. Fantastic amp with all the edginess you could want but the versatility to dial it out if you wish. The SMX is now my 'home practice ' setup, except when I feel guilty and gig it as happily as before. Pondering a GK MB series as a compact practice /backup head.. [/quote] I think the GK will be the one for me. I've just set the Gallien Krueger model up on my Zoom B3. It sounds pretty good. Cheers

[quote name='Twincam' timestamp='1472849350' post='3124864'] Not sure an svt 3 pro would suit tbh. There a bit tame!, they do sound good though. I fancied one for a while and tried out a few. Bought an Bugera bvp 5500, a kind of clone of the ampeg, all valve front end etc, after seeing a thread on talkbass comparing the 2 side by side and build quality etc. The bvp 5500 does exactly the same as the 3 pro but actually does proper overdrive too and costs almost 1/5th the price of the ampeg. There cheap enough to give a try. [/quote] Cheers Twincam, they do look good value.

Three bands... Ghost/Signals - Baba Yaga - The Golden Age Of Nothing + DJ. Cheers 2elliot (The Golden Age Of Nothing)

Cheers thodrik. I thought it was older than that. I'll keep a look out in the for sale section for another. I understand how good the older TE gear is, I still own my 1225v which I bought new back in the early 90s. I was hoping another company would have something similar available new... just in case.
