I really like this idea. I can see an application for an amp on top of a tilted cab to stop it sliding off. I often tilt my small cab on a small stand on a small stage!
-
Understood, I thought it may be of interest to others considering a DIY bi-amped cab project 🙂 Good luck with the project and keep us posted

Slightly off topic, but may be of interest - I have a 700RB for sale on this forum. They are great sounding versatile amps. Mine is a 2 x 10" combo which is reassuringly heavy but the head could be used very effectively in a project like this?

Another great and well attended bass bash today. Many thanks to @scrumpymike and the rest of the team for all their hard work and fantastic catering throughout the day. Also thanks to @Phil Starr for the blind speaker shootout. Interesting and thought provoking. Also thanks for everyone attending and bringing along a fantastic selection of gear and instruments!

Gallien Krueger 700RB Mk2 (reduced to £200)
basstone replied to basstone's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Anyone care to make an offer on this combo? It's too heavy to post so the SW bass bash on Sunday is an ideal opportunity to give this a new home. -
Thank you. See you on Sunday
-
Yes please, I'm interested in them if they are still available.
-
If not sold before, maybe bring it along to the SW bass bash on 12 Oct down near Taunton (check it out in the events section). I'm sure there would be a lot of interest in it. -
The Gillet basses are fantastic being innovative, unique and very well made. I tested some early prototypes for Mike and gave him some feedback. I've always been on the lookout for an upright bass sound from a bass guitar and these came close. Being a long scale fretless player, I did not want to spend the time getting the intonation sorted for a shorter scale so I did not buy one! Probably also a bit of a niche market for them but this is a rare opportunity for someone, surely as there are not many Gillett basses out there? -
Gallien-Krueger 700RB combo in good working condition. Recently serviced and modified in line with the GK mod. scheme in the service manual (thermistor fitted in the power input) to prevent the main fuse blowing due to current surge on power up. A couple of sorry looking overheated resistors were also replaced at the same time and the power amp fully checked. This is a heavy combo (30Kg+) thankfully the wheels and built in handle help moving it around and doubtless this contributes to the solid sound of this combo. Rated at 480 W into the woofers plus 75W into the HF horn the amp features many eq. and voicing options. See attached user manual for details and full specifications. Price reduced and open to offers. 700rb_1001rb owners manual.pdf700rb_1001rb owners manual.pdf

Only just spotted the post! never mind it has saved me some work! - I just can't resist figuring out faults, and possibly retaining a useful spare part, finding a new replacement at such a good price was handy. Polar seem to be selling off all of their old stock spares ATM so probably the last chance to get some of those hard to find items.

Do you still have the board? Where are you based? cheers

Basschat 112 Mk3 - price drop £325 - on hold - *SOLD*

I have serial number 003 and the grille also looks like mine (sourced from Stevie). I'm tempted to buy yours as a matching pair would make a great PA! These are great cabs that work well in most situations, and the recessed top handle works really well. Here is cab 003 🙂. GLWTS -
