  1. Is the product called "rebelhead450"?
    If so then you naturally jump to the obvious conclusion. As for the whole iphone thing, i reckon (if it is ashdown and it is a head) it's something along the lines of the superfly, like an amp with a digital programmable front end?

    Just my uneducated guess!

    EDIT: There's also some schematic diagrams in there, saw "tuner out" so looks like a head or a pre...

  2. It has made me spend a fortune, but i've got a sliced of that back through selling my old gear!

    The gear i've got off here has made me sound MILES better though...

    Also got to try loads of effects for half the new price, some i've kept and some i've passed on at cost for someone else to enjoy

    My missus hate's it, after all it is the reason she didn't get a holiday in 2008 as promised!

  3. Have these spare as i've just got a few better quality ones

    4 cheapy moulded patch leads, all working (only bought them a month or so ago!)

    2 angled jack patch leads with better quality cable, untested but were working

    Posted free to you after 5th January

    ALL GONE!

  4. Yeah they were selling classical guitars for £15 a while back with neck faults.

    I sent them a cheeky message asking what else they had going cheap and the guy was really pleasant, basically said if i had anything in mind then to message him and he'd have a look! Think they've just got some seconds and damaged stock (some cosmetic, some structural), the more desirable stuff is cheap but not bargains

    He did offer me an all solid classical with cosmetic faults for around £70 though, which was an excellent price as a lot of arias better classicals are actually made in Spain

  5. Can't go wrong with a Little Mark II, i love mine

    There was on in the for sale section not so long ago for £400 which seems to be the going rate. They're usually well looked after, i got a mint one off here for £390!

  6. [quote name='krazy_olie' post='366740' date='Dec 30 2008, 11:44 PM']Thanks guys,

    I'm quite liking the look of the Kickback 12, whilst the A100 looks like better value but a bit less portable but I could happily buy it and be in no rush at all to sell my current stuff (though I would eventually have to get round to it).
    I think I'll be doing some research and taking a trip in to town to check them out.

    Eden Nemesis combos do look viable if I could get a decent deal.[/quote]

    There was an Eden combo on here not so long ago IIRC? Don't know if it sold....

    One thing about the Hartkes is that they're made in China now and the baffle boards are prone to working loose on the cheaper stuff (well mine are anyways!). My VX cab did it and my A70 does it past 12 o'clock on the volume (it's retired now as it's my bedroom amp so doesn't get anywhere near that). Fixed the VX with a pack of screws (took about 40 mins) and will have to do the same on the combo. The VX was fine afterwards btw.

    If you were further up north you could have a look at my housemate's kickback 15 he's sellin (it's USA made). He's a lazy sh1t so i've pretty much given up selling his gear for him after he didn't reply to 2 contacts i gave him

    The A70 has a 12" speaker too, i used it with a 5 string and it was very clear and didn't flake out

  7. Not really a fan of relics, some look ok some don't. If people want them then what's wrong with Fender building them?

    The only thing which taints the idea is the price, which suggests the target audience for relics (Fender ones anyway) is the born-again middle-aged wannabe rockstar (apologies to all born-again middle-aged rockstars!). I've not seen a working musician playing one but know plenty who have bought the Standard series in the last few years

    The best bit about wear and tear on an instrument is the fact it's your playing doing it, my old Warwick feels like MY bass cos i've done countless gigs with it. You can't buy that

    If i wanted a relic bass i'd get a highway one and sell the case! Two months later, bob's your uncle!

  8. [quote name='Delberthot' post='366354' date='Dec 30 2008, 04:13 PM']I'm not entirely sure that it will be loud enough for my pub band with no PA support so may look into getting another efficient cab like my Schroeder 1212L but with more drivers to push more air.[/quote]

    Do you use the stand when you don't go through the PA? I have the same stand (and a very similar rig) and i only use the stand when i play much bigger gigs when the amp is purely for backline. I lost volume and tone as soon as i lifted the Schroeder off the floor. However, standing it on it's side i've played gigs without going through the PA and it's been plenty loud enough.
    That's with the world's loudest drummer too!

  9. Ok, here's my Zoot Deluxe Custom bought earlier this year.
    Followed by my Warmoth Fretless
    Then my old faithful Warwick Corvette Ash Standard
    And finally my Squier Standard Jazz, which is yours for £130 inc. case!

  10. Got some Warwick ones to tide me over till i can raise more money. £15 for 5 delivered (always buy a couple spare!). I'll let you know what they're like when i get em

    EDIT: Like these:
    [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/WARWICK-20CM-PATCH-CABLE-GOLD-TIPPED-PRO-QUALITY_W0QQitemZ200255329234QQihZ010QQcategoryZ47075QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/WARWICK-20CM-PATCH-C...1742.m153.l1262[/url]

  11. It's 2x12 or 2x10 or a combination of the two. Schroeders have a second speaker behind and angled upwards (where that big hole is)

    I recently changed from a full stack to a Little Mark II and a Schroeder 1212r and couldn't be happier. My band mates are eternally grateful as i can carry my amp and cab in one go!
