  1. Sorry to say - no actually, quite pleased to say - 'tis gone.... Gave it to Runour6 to have a wiggle at the setup and - he ain't giving it back. Let's see how long he keeps it. Cheers all. Chris
  2. I sold my V8/8x10 to my optometrist. Miss it, but I get free specs....
  3. Hi My Trace V series 2x15 needs a friend, and Runour6 sold his, so... Clean and serviced Bassman 70 head valved with 6550s + ? Or a v.v.clean Shafstbury R********** in fireglo with case + ? Or a CIJ Geddy Signature Jazz + ? Or p/x it v. my Fender Rumble stack...? Or...?
  4. The neck is yours for 400....
  5. So... n'embdy wants one...? Swaps or nowt? N'embdy?
  6. Hmmmm... Cannae cash it, but intrigued by the 15.... Pick 'n Mix options: Boss Bass Overdrive ODB-3 No box Boss Bass Chorus CE-2B No box Bosss Bass Limiter Enhancer LMB-3 No box Boss Bass Flanger BF-2B No box Proco Bass Overdrive Juggernaut Boxed n such And I have a courier contract. Owt there for a deal?
  7. Here I go... ... CIJ Geddy in black + 200... ...there! I've said it!
  8. I had a blue one back in the '80s. Awesome build quality - and I am a sucker for a deep gloss finish. Blue, it was. Crackin'. A chap in Wales ended up with it when I 'chucked the lot' and went back to brass banding.
  9. Cheers to all commenters and interesteds.
  10. [quote name='ste_m3' post='310312' date='Oct 20 2008, 11:43 AM']Oh! No i genuinly meant it. Its very easy to get all this silly terminoligy mixed up (Claber and BFM, feel free to tap my wrists!) I just fear it being too... big sounding for me. I like focused low mids and judging by what the fellow was saying about it being incredibly deep etc [/quote] Yep. Incredibly deep. I suspect it would be too ... big sounding for a hifi guy. And it def. wants a big room. I have never tried the head through different cabs, though. (Strange when I have so many, but the Fender stack is not near my cab depository.) Next move will be to take it to the Peavey 1820. That oughta tell a story....
  11. How big is the 1153 compared to the 2103x? I would love the wee 1x15 from the series to put under my 2103X....
  12. Only two years later, this has come back to roost. [attachment=14954:17_10_08_1726.jpg] [attachment=14955:17_10_08_1727.jpg] Fender Rumble valve stack. Bruce Zinky design lower brother of the Tonemaster guitar amp. 300-400w using 6550 power valves. 4x10 + horn Top cab and 4x10 Sub cab. Way deep and way loud. £1750 - only £1k less than the head new and it comes with its cabs. Interested in a sale or swap/cash thing. Can demo/deliver/any of that.
  13. 18+10 is a great cab - but is almost always a two-man lift, esp. in the case, so doesn't command the price it 'deserves'. Remember - 1/4" gives one driver only = needs the XLR for both sepakers to work together. Note: teh 10" is nice on its own for studio stuff (but you have to get the cab into a studio. (Urk! M' back!) £375 is about right - £275 for the cab in such good condition and £100 for the case. Only someone who really wants it and can move it is going to buy it = slow seller, but won't go any quicker as a 'cheapie'. Bril for someone running a practice room, but they can usually be counted on to pay nowt for gash gear instead of reliable quality and great sound... sadly for us/their punters...
  14. Came from Rumour6, no? If so, fantastic piece.
  15. It's a crunch tone thing. Dry and edgy compared to a smooth older 50w - or even the 800 series 4210. Not as midrange roaring as the 900 Master Volume version that followed - but plenty of authority. Build quality way beyond anything since. Kinda boxy, maybe, in a 1x12 format... ...but will drive an 8ohm 2x12 nicely! ...or put a 1912 cab with it - an older one with the Sidewinder driver - or pack it with an EV, like I do! Gotta be worth £250-300.
  16. Hi Consider a p/x of the 4x10 f'case against the 2x10 - or maybe both...? Also in the mix: Mexico Jazz Shaftsbury Ricalike GP12SMX head (rack format) Acoustic 220 Electric Blue 180 1x15 Cheers Chris
  17. BANG! And the stack is gone.... Well done!
  18. Live - Hiwatt 400 through Trace 1810 cab Studio - silver face 100w Fender Twin Reverb Both sounded FANTASTIC outdoors, too!
  19. Tube Amp Doctor is reasonable. [url="http://www.tubeampdoctor.com/index.php?language=en"]http://www.tubeampdoctor.com/index.php?language=en[/url]
  20. I am not a big fan of compact boxes.... ...but Rumour6 has a 2x12 EBS neo thingie that is great!, so waht do I know?!?! The weeAShdown boxes don't have the space fill authority I prefer. The orig Ashdown ABM 500 cab (300w qxq5) was fantastic with the V8 and the V6. Best 1x15 since the big Trace boxes. From my stable, the Trace 1510 (1x15 + 1x10) is no bigger than a 4x10 and might do it for you as a one-box solution. That's only £300.... Or a Trace 4x10 + horn.... £275. Or if you want the end-all, how about a Trace 15+18 full flight box (face off, wheels and handles)? OMIGOD!!! Plenti-full-y ranged and snippish at £250. Lotsa thots.
  21. May be selling the carpeted 4x12. Depends on what a couple of local guys are up to with my V6 and 2x15 cab. The 4x12 is rated at 800w, has a horn and a high frequency dial. There is a metal grill under the front grill cloth. It is superclean and flightcased, so I would expect to get £550 inc delivery. doesn't hurt so much if you factor in the "cheap as free" deal you got on the head.... But if you want a great cab just to get on with, Andy67 is offing his Ashdown 8x10 - and your amp will make that puppy sing!
  22. Tell us the model number and the letter at the end of the serial number and we will know lead/bass, wattage and age. Describe condition in detail, alongwith any known repairs/replaced bits and we can help with a value. Ta
  23. 50w EL34 combo. I set mine up with 6550 valves to give more clean headroom and put in a Celestion powercell to be more efficient. The EQ is lower mid biased, but still sounds quite good for guitar.
