I got this recently from BC'er Soliloquy. Its the 8 ohm version of Acme's rarely-seen (at least in the UK) and much-praised Low B2 cab and is in very good condition. While it has superb hi-fi like clarity - making it wonderful for double bass and those who prefer totally uncoloured sound - I just don't think it has quite the volume capabilities I am after, as I was looking for a cab to double between electric and DB. Having A/B'd them properly in the past week, its not as loud for example as my Wizzy 12" 4 ohm cab. These cost over £500 to import from the US, after shipping and import duties, and I will let this go at the £300 I paid*. I don't have a box big enough so in the first instance its collection only (I am in West London, nr Hammersmith) Edit: * now £280 Stock pic: [attachment=97662:acme.jpg] Specs here: [url="http://acmebass.com/"]http://acmebass.com/[/url] SOLD

Flippin eck- bargain! I beat V&R down from £1850 (I think) to £1600, ended up selling at my usual loss for £1300 and not much more than a year later and still in fabulous nick £1100. Someone snaffle this, its lovely

Actually lets call the Clarus+ head £750 as it has been gigged regularly (not that you can see any scars, scrapes or dings; it is still in fabulous condition) but the cab stays at £350 as its never even left my house. £50 discount if you take both

I have them on the Kolstein bass that Keith (Mr_Bassman) sold me and I really like them. Nice low tension but more growl than my previously-favoured Innovation Silver Slaps. I see them as the TI flats of DB strings!

And another bump! This is serously useful as a feedback fighter for DB as well as a PA speaker

Buyer contacted me to say he had decided to upgrade his existing EA cab rather than buy another cab, so this is back up FS again Must be collected from Hammersmith area

If it helps, the Wal database shows that the basses completed two and four before yours (W2172 and W2174) were made in 1983 and 1984 [url="http://www4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~koesters/Privat/Wal/walspec.html"]http://www4.informat...al/walspec.html[/url] Good luck with the [s]nipple[/s] sale

Of course I could be persuaded to part with Moondance, Bilbo?

Hi Chris, already been paid and will be posting the parcel tomorrow. Sorry!

Pics always help a sale, especially given that you are a newbie with no feedback. Location also helps too. Hope that doesn't sound rude - we were all newbies at one point and my comment is meant to be constructive! These are great cabs and I'm sure someone will snap your hand off once he/she's seen pics

I recall it being B width, loz

Thanks John and deepbass! I have a PM from a possible buyer so this may be on its way

On hold

btw, the tort guard was made for me by Howard the Bass Doc as I preferred the look to a black guard. But the latter was in superb shape

I previously owned this (as did Happy Jack) and can confirm that it's a quite lovely bass that appeared to have been kept in it's case for most of it's life as the sunburst was so vivid still. Very nice and recommended
