STrangely I got form FlatEric too ! Great sound to me, versatile I would say. Surprisingly easy to play. Compact, so a useful bass in a crowded pub session

I've had the same splendid experience as others . Bought a GK cab from david. It was exactly as described, in superb condition, extremely well packed and sent by fast courier. A fast and easy transaction with great communication. Couldn't have wished for more.

This should be a really wonderful sounding set up. The older Eden pre-XLT cabs have a warmer sound to my ears (something you can big up if you want in an advert), and a 2x10 paired with a 2x12 should be lush. My feeling is that you'd have to realistic about price. The newer and much lighter entrants to the high end cab market ( Barefaced, Aguilar, Schroeder) have made previous generations like Eden less desirable, even though they are excellent. I've seen an wt800 go for £400. Usual thing : gear losing value if its not in vogue Soundwise though, I suspect whoever tries it will be happy bunny. Good luck.

The solution for me was an (earthed) laptop charger that I happend to have - it was rated 19v and 3.4A and had a 3 pin input to the transformer block, so I guessed it was earthed . Luckily it had (i) enough ampage, (ii) the same polarity and the same fitting as the power input on the BG-75. With the earthing problem now solved, I think the Double 4 BG-75 is a wonderful little combo, highly portable, and with a more vintage sound than other PJB stuff . Its amazingly loud for its tiny size. I am using it in an acoustic pub session usually coimprising 5+ guitars, piano accordian, a trombone, bouzoukis, mandolins, 2 bodrhan players and other punters talking. Alan, at Synergy the distributors, has been incredibly helpful and supportive throughout. I'm now rather chuffed with this little amp, and I understand there is a possibility of running it off a battery in the future. I await developments.

You're right. Their supplied (unearthed) adapter is 20v at 2.75A, whilst mine is a good quality laptop charger (earthed) which is rated at 19v 3.42A , so it should have plenty of juice, and it also has the right polarity. Once again Synergy were very helpful. They suggested that given the slightly lower voltage, I check for transients at full volume, and loss of power. I tried this and there was no obvious distortion, or loss of power with my adaptor, just a very satisfying quietness to the combo..... So this seems to be a good solution for me, and with the earthed adaptor, I can use my old and poorly screened basses with this excellent little combo. Synergy say they will be bringing out their own earthed adaptor very soon.
