Thanks guys, that's good for thought, will look into this 👍👍

Well it must be fate !! i would love to take a look at it if it's not inconvenient. would I be talking to Dave by any chance ? Just realised you are in Seale Regards Russ

This sounds very tempting, where are you based please ? Russ

Thanks for the response guys, the Ampeg PF 50t is a good shout however, I should have mentioned that I already have one. It's a lovely little amp that ticks loads of boxes but I have found it wanting ( only just) when it comes up against a drummer, a Hammond player and a very loud guitarist !! The handbox looks interesting, I've never heard of this stuff, has anyone gigged the valve heads ?

Ok fellow bass players, here is my dilemma. I'm currently using a Trace Quatravalve which I have had for many moons and I love the sound it makes to bits. As valve heads go, this is about as light and portable as you could wish for however, I'm not as young as I used to be and lugging it around at the end of an evening is beginning to get to me. My problem is this, what an earth is there out there that even comes close to replicating the sound of a good valve head but doesn't give me a double hernia every time I try and pick it up. If anyone out there has any ideas I would be very grateful to hear them. thanks 👍

Thanks for the info that's really helpful, when my unit is plugged into the mains via the USB the green light will not illuminate. I'm assuming there must be a fault with it then ?

Have just purchased a Phil Jones big head, can anyone out there clear up a little problem for me.? When I plug the unit into mains power, should the little green LED that's marked 'power ' light up ? Hoping someone can help, thanks

Currently using a Trace Elliot Quatra valve and considering a change ( not so heavy or bulky) to an Ampeg SVT 3 non pro version. Concerned thst it may lack the punch of the Trace, anyone out there unsure one ? How do find them ? Thanks

Check out Trace Elliot Twin or Quatra valve (38lbs) if you can find one ! Lovely sounding classic tube head
