I bet they are over £2k for a 4 string H once they arrive in the UK....

I sold mine in October 2017, but I'm seriously tempted to dive back in. However, the prices have gone up, which makes no sense..... I paid about £980 for a full fat Helix and they are now £1199. As soon as they level out again I might have another go, but for now I'll wait to see what the next development is on the market.

What prices are we looking at?

Reasonable price!

I’d like a try of one of these!

The Aguilar DB 12 cabs are still some of my favourite sounding bass guitar cabs.

Has anyone had issues with the noisy loops? I know they were saying a batch got through that will need repairs.

I hope he gets this back, and I suspect as it is rare and he's a well known player, he will be reunited with it. However, please don't EVER leave anything in a car, especially an instrument.

Lovely looking thing! Congrats.

That’s not great when they want repeat business from you.

If you ask me, £1700 at Andertons is a good price!

Just do not leave any instruments or amps/pedals in the sunlight, unless it is just like a gig and you are playing in it! If you have them at home, make sure they are out of the direct sunlight. I keep my gear in a small room and the blind is down virtually all the time.

https://www.thomann.de/gb/music_man_stingray_4_2018_iwh.htm New 2018 prices for a Stingray H....but with the 2018 new model 'upgrades'.

Unfortunately, I think this is quite a good price on a special edition limited model! Does not bode well for the future. Musicman have just had another price hike over in the USA, so expect it to hit here late summer when the instruments come over. A lot of the models have had significant upgrades, and I imagine a normal stock Bongo 5 HH is going to be £2100-2300.

Oh my god.... http://bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Musicman_Bongo_5HH_Stary_Night.html No more space for gear, but that is a stunning example of a modern instrument.

Wow the Quilter really is cheap now! If I was in the market I'd go for one of those.

Great to see Ashdown on it!

Yamaha really are a great company. I can only see positive results with this. Whilst the Helix wasn't for me (at this current stage) the quality of it was fantastic. Let's hope they bring out some reliable lightweight SVTs!

It's not about 'affording' it, and plently of products sound just as good for less money. I personally love Aguilar's products, but the prices here jumped dramtically once they involved a middleman dealer. Mesa is in a similar boat...unfortunately. Great gear, overpriced in the UK.

https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/aguilar-db-212-bass-speaker-cabinet £1100.

Before they had an import dealer, a few stores used to buy direct. I bought a Tonehammer for about £170 and a DB212 for about £600. The Tonehammer is about £240 since having a dealer, and I’m not even sure I want to know the DB212 price. It’s like the prices of Mesa gear over here. Excessive.

Sorry I put this in the wrong part of the forum! Doh!

Am I wrong in thinking these latest Aguilar UK prices are insane? https://www.andertons.co.uk/aguilar-sl112-super-light-weight-1x12-cab

It's a shame if they have dropped more HS options, as I have a few and they are very versatile and underrated!

I had the exact amp in 400W and it was a BEAST. I was telling my partner how much I wish I'd kept it, just because it was so reliable, loud and clear. It did weigh as much as a big tube amp, but it was fantastic.
