Aloha
I live in Belgium and to be honest I'm not the basspro considering gear. So I stumbled upon this site and i'd figure you guys know what your talking about so, here goes...
We have a second hand musicstore somewhere near where I live and it has some Trace Elliotamps for sale. Now, I'm playing a Hartke B-90 which has been irritating me since i bought it (i was short of cash and it was a good deal when i started playing... in other words: i need to move on) so i am looking for a new amp. I tried out a trace elliot before but not with my current bass (Fender Jazz Bass Highway One, US) but i remember i took a liking of the trace elliot amp back then(playing it with a gruesome epiphone sg bass... horrible thing). The store is selling a second hand Trace Elliot GP12 SMX 250 WATT for €650 (about 500 pounds) and a Trace Elliot GP12 SMX BASS PREAMP + RA600 SX for more or less the same price... considering my bass, and the fact that in my band i don't need to be thát loud, what would be the best option? Is that a reasonable price? We don't have big stores dealing trace elliot in Belgium (not that I know of). Are their any other wicked amps any of you can recommend for a reasonable price?
I don't have any good references concerning Trace, and to be fair, their site looks like crap.
Thanks a million
Cheers,
