  1. Item Sold Please remove from thread

     

    Hi readers,

     

    I bought this BP -800 4 months ago on this site from the knowledgable Nigel AKA Bumnote. If you are looking for a clean true representation of you bass guitar with bags of power,  flexible EQ and crystal clarity then this could be the amp for you. Since buying I realise it doesn't quite suit my band sound and having had a GB Streamliner in the past,  I am harking back to that sound. So I am  looking to either sell the PB-800 or trade it for Genzler Magellan 800.

     

    The Amp is in pristine condition, gigged only once by me and comes with a bespoke PJB padded gig bag.

     

    Cheers All

  2. Hi It's me again, having got my initial problem sorted I have noticed that when I turn the gain control past 12.0clock there seems to be little difference in the volume and doesn't make any difference to the output level or tone.  Volume control increases as expected. Have tried several valves in the V1 slot and they behave exactly the same. Is this normal? Playing as I do, with a clean sound and rarely over-driving I have not noticed this before as the gain is normally set between 9-10. I have a GB shuttle 6 as well and this winds its gain all the way up to max.... which is what I thought I would expect on the Streamliner.

  3. AnyValve techies know what this could be?? I have a Genz Benz 900 Streamliner Head which has been my go-to Amp for the last 5 years. Prior to a gig yesterday the  first one after  a long lay off I noticed that the active mid frequency filter does not appear to be working properly and I I am sometimes getting  a mild overdrive distortion when I hit the strings hard. I am familiar the operation of the gain and drive an eq functions and know that the front end isnt working as well as it used to. Could this be a problem with one of the valves going a bit soft? They are around 3 years old and have had moderate usage up until March 2020 and then only used sporadically at low volumes up until yesterday.

     

    Thanks

    Andy
