Mr 1000w bass cab and sandberg Lionel

Any users out there ? They look pretty decent , any users out there?

I’m in Ireland so I couriered it over . Not too expensive, I just think one cheap component needed replacing a phase inverter 🤷‍♂️. Certainly sounds louder than before. Beefier . Can’t wait to gig with it 😢

My amp back from Ashdown all serviced , thrilled with the results

Although not quite as cheap I saw an Ashdown ctm100 with roqsolid cover go for £500 out of rich tone music...some bargains in that place

Personally Id like the internals to be completely covered because Id be guarantee to break it otherwise. But Mickalis really knows what he's doing and his amps have gotten rave reviews. They can do what ever you want really.

I almost forgot...pure tone amps from Greece . They do a very tidy 120w valve amp

I’ve never been bothered about over hang so long as the feet touch the cabinet or the cabinet fits between the feet. but I can understand how it could annoy a lot of people . 15” could be a bit of a squeeze . I was thinking maybe the Ashdown little bastard chassis could be used to cram the innards of the CTM 100, you could ask Mark Gooday, I think they do custom stuff 🤷‍♂️ Of course another option is to get a barefaced two10, that’s what I use

Hi Matt, in the 100w valve amp market you’ve a good few options already in avoiding expensive custom builds with a good few second hand offerings floating around. Ashdown , Ampeg , Fender, Handbox all have great amps at this power. second hand ones are going for well under one grand, sometimes as low as £500

Champion that !

Is it called YI200 because they’re from Newcastle 🤔

I’ve my eye in that stoneham big time

That price isnt bad considering what it is.

Yeah 400W is a bit overkill. 100-200W @ around 20kg-ish would be ideal really.

Anyone ever try this amp..Looks like a bit of a monster. https://goughanddavy.co.uk/products/laney-nexus-tube-bass-amp-head

That's very cool IMO

If somebody told me your bass was played on the Rumours album, Id be well impressed.

I think John must have been very high when he ordered that bass.

I've been eyeing up these, there's an 800W version also, they look great. The Superbassman is 300W, pure valve (uses 6 x 6550s) havnt heard much about them but they should be killer.

It would be worth asking Ashdown, I understand they’ve taken on Trace Elliots , wasn’t Dave green from Orange ? I believe they’re based in Essex

I bought an Ashdown little bastard 30w around a month ago. Delighted with it for home use.I see them pop up here and there for reasonable money

I keep looking at amps particularly , even though I have nowhere to play them. I think its boredom. Some of my guitarist buddies are looking at amps and I spend time on their behalf looking for bargains for them. 😥

How's that amp working out?

The Harley Benton stuff is amazing value . I bought their 51 pbass last year and I couldn’t fault it apart from rough fretwork but €40 at my luthier put that right . I only sold it on because it wasn’t getting used.
