Thanks!

Now on hold....

Right, another price drop as I have now splashed out on the replacement and I could do with this lot gone. AH300-12, with cover and kettle lead - [s]£250[/s] [color="#FF0000"]£200[/color] 1153T, with cover and cable - [s]£150[/s] [color="#FF0000"]£120[/color] 2013H, with cover and cable - [s]£150[/s] [color="#FF0000"]£120[/color] 1818 - [s]£120[/s] [color="#FF0000"]£100[/color] Footswitch - [s]£50[/s] [color="#FF0000"]£40[/color] Head + 1153 +2013 +footswitch + cables etc [s]£550[/s] [color="#FF0000"]£450[/color] Head + (1153 or 2013) + 1818 + cables etc + footswitch [s]£520[/s] [color="#FF0000"]£420[/color] Remove footswitch less £40. Whole lot [s]£600. [/s] [color="#FF0000"]£500[/color] I know, I am mad. I will deliver a reasonable distance for cost of fuel. Just ask!

I will look into the various postage options and report back - I guess posting to Germany is going to be expensive but I would be prepared to do it - once it is packed for transit it doesn't really matter where it goes. I just get nervous about couriers and postage and the all seem to have a long history of parcel abuse. Haverhill I'd probably rather deliver it for petrol money and eliminate any risk - which would be a viable option, guys, for anyone within about 100 miles or so. Or meet half way, that kind of thing. This is a definite 'For Sale' now. I'll dig out the serial number and take more pics if anyone wants any.

I [s]am thinking of[/s] selling my Fender Jaguar. I use either my Power Jazz Special or the Bass Collection more at the moment and, frankly, could do with releasing some cash to help fund some lightweight amp/cabs that I need to get. Had it from new for a couple of years. I replaced the original creamy white scratchplate with this black one - looks sexier IMO and the bass is now called 'The Panther'. But I still have, and will include, the original. It has only tiny marks on it, nothing much. a little buckle rash at the back - the scratch plate has pick marks on it - they might even polish out, I don't know. One thing I never got around to doing was sorting out the slight hum these jags have when you take your hand off the metal. It is what they do and easily fixed, I am told - I just never did. Currently it has no strings on it - I took off a set of Thomastik flats which I can put back on, or send it stringless for you do use what you like. I won't list all the doings - active, 2 band eq, 2 pups that can be switched series or parallel. Can also be played passive. Beautiful skinny and thin Jazz profile neck - I think it is similar to the Geddy Lee one - with block inlays. Etc etc. A vast array of sounds available. I believe they don't make these any more. Anyway - I am thinking £500, including one of those SKB soft/hard cases but excluding postage extra. Any interest out there?

Ok, some details and pics.. The whole rig, with covers, without covers, stacked the other way if you prefer.. [attachment=76538:TE1.jpg][attachment=76539:TE2.jpg][attachment=76541:TE3.jpg][attachment=76540:TE2a .jpg] The head - AH300-12 - (wxhxd) 49 x 15 x 37cm and approx. 15kg [attachment=76542:TE4.jpg][attachment=76543:TE5.jpg] The 2x10 (2103H) cab - 49 x 63 x 43cm and approx 31kg (and it is with an adjustable tweeter) [attachment=76544:TE6.jpg][attachment=76545:TE6a.jpg] The 1x15 (1053T) cab - 49 x 63 x 43cm and approx 26kg [attachment=76546:TE7.jpg][attachment=76547:TE7a.jpg] The ultra-rare footswitch (as you can see, pretty much as new), monster OBBM speaker cables, kettle lead and head manual. [attachment=76548:TE8.jpg][attachment=76549:TE9.jpg] And 'El Gordo' the leviathan 1x18 cabinet I didn't mention yesterday - 61 x 79 x 43cm and approx 40kg. This beast is rather tatty but works perfectly well. I had intended to buy a can of satin black, take all the metal bits off and give him a makeover - the tolex isn't too bad - but, well, won't bother now. On 4 casters, 2 are lockable [attachment=76550:TE10.jpg][attachment=76551:TE10a.jpg] I'd like £120 for this and am reluctant to sell this to anyone leaving by the sea in case it sets off a tsunami. The marks on the fronts of the cabs are reflections from stuff around, not marks. Well, except for El Gordo. The cabs have one or two small tears in the tolex but nothing much. At the back side of the cabs the edges are just starting to lift a fraction - nothing much. And even though the sizes don't seem to match they do stack - it is the little rubber feet that make some measurements different. Edit for price revision - I will sell separately or bundle into a 'deal' AH300-12, with cover and kettle lead - £250 1153T, with cover and cable - £150 2013H, with cover and cable - £150 1818 - £120 Footswitch - £50 Head + 1153 +2013 +footswitch + cables etc £550 Head + (1153 or 2013) + 1818 + cables etc + footswitch £520 Remove footswitch less £50. Whole lot £650.

Got to go lightweight, so this needs to be gone. A complete ball busting, wall trembling, floor vibrating Trace Elliot matching rig. According to the guy I bought it from, who had been a Trace Elliot devotee for many years, this was almost the last bit of kit that left the factory before production was taken over by Gibson. It is all covered in the 'leather effect' tolex, rather than the pimply one or carpet, with metal corners and sprung handles on the cabs. With both cabs it is 300 Trace Elliot Watts of power, which has proved to be more than loud enough for any situation I have gigged in so far. It is all in pretty good nick considering the age, which I guess must be 13 or so years old. Ah300-12 head - no UV light but luminous finish gives the trade mark green glow when in operation. A huge array of knobs, bells and whistles are at your disposal. There are [b]2 inputs[/b] - passive and active. There is an [b]Input gain[/b] control which, er, controls the gain on the input. There is a handy 3 light system for setting this - green is low, yellow is fine, red is overdoing it. It has the [b]GP-12 band EQ[/b], operated by sliders and activated via a push/push button. It has the famous '[b]Trace Elliot Pre-shape[/b]', which overides the EQ and gives the 'trade mark Trace Elliot Sound'. It is the setting I use when playing in my 2 rock bands. Also activated via a push/push button. It has a [b]Harmonic emphasis[/b] push/push button that is varied via a knob. I don't use this. It has [b]Valve Stage[/b] activated by a push/push button and adjusted via a knob. This gives a degree of valve 'warmth' to the sound right up to a fairly strong overdriven sound. I like this. Lots. There is a [b]2-band compressor [/b]with a blend knob. I have it set up more as a boost because I don't really understand what it does, despite Simon's best efforts at explaining it at the last bass bash. There is a [b]noise reduction [/b]push/push button that eliminates hum and hiss, especially if using it with the highs boosted. There is a [b]mute/tune[/b] push/push button - this mutes the connection to the speaker(?) but if connected to a tuner the signal is still available. So that's the front gubbins. On the back there is the power socket and on/off switch. 5-way DIN socket for the 5-way footswitch and a jack socket for a mute footswitch. There are two jack inputs for effects loop, which is switchable parallel/series, with a blend knob. This is EXTREMELY useful and eliminates the need for all sorts of line boxes. There are two jack sockets for line out and tuner. Balanced XLR output for Di, which is switchable pre/post eq. 2 x jack sockets for speakers - min load 4ohms. I recently bought for this a slightly second hand New Old Stock 5 way footswitch, which controls pre-shap, EQ, Valve drive, compression and effects. It really makes using these buttons SO much easier. This arrived wrapped in dried Unicorn placenta and packed out with hens teeth and rocking horse poo. 1153 cab - 15" 2 x jack socket or, strangely (?) XLR rather than Speakon. 2103H - 2 x 10". again, jacks or XLRs. I think this is the one with a switchable tweeter but will check. I would rather sell this as a complete rig, with monster OBBM cables for the speakers and kettle lead. Head has it's original cover, I had Roqsolid covers made for the cabs in black with green piping. [s]£600 for the lot, collection from Benfleet in Essex, SS71LD or meet half way for fuel. This is a huge amount of kit for the money but I need it going and so have priced it to sell. *now with 1x18 cab added - £120[/s] Price revision - I will sell separately or bundle into a 'deal' AH300-12, with cover and kettle lead - £250 1153T, with cover and cable - £150 2013H, with cover and cable - £150 1818 - £120 Footswitch - £50 Head + 1153 +2013 +footswitch + cables etc £550 Head + (1153 or 2013) + 1818 + cables etc + footswitch £520 Remove footswitch less £50. Whole lot £650. I will take some pictures tomorrow and add weights and dimensions but here are a couple of long range shots of it in use last summer (captions welcomed for pic1....)
