[quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1395660241' post='2404711'] Hi Pete What I should have also mentioned in my last post is that I have had plenty of Lakland strings myself in the past, and they are superb, as good as anything else out there. £10 for these is a bargain! GHS make strings for lots of top" boutique" brands, like MTD, Lakland, Spector, ect, and that is no bad recommendation. GHS are one of the biggest string manufacturers in the World, and their strings are some of the best on the market. Cheers Dingus. [/quote] Hi Dingus I've used Fender strings for many years now but I thought I'd try GHS on your recommendation. I bought a set of Boomers (45-100) and I'm very impressed with them from first putting them on. Loads of bottom and not too much of the 'zingy' stuff that's normal with new strings. Thanks again for your advice. Kind regards, Pete

[quote name='jaybass 70' timestamp='1395896910' post='2407680'] hi Pete, I,ll take the fenders if you've still got them regards jason [/quote] Hi Jason Got your PM and replied. Strings still available. Regards Pete

Is this the one I've seen in the Matamp porn thread?

Hi quimbymeat I know you are a big Matamp fan and, owning their gear, I fully understand why. They are great amps and this cab, because it is sealed and quite deep physically, gives loads of bottom end. It's a reluctant sale, I have to say. Cheers Pete

Hi Tremblap Yes, it's one of the best amps about. Cheers Pete

Having trouble with the quoting system. Hi Noisyjon, not looking for trades thanks. Cheers Pete

Thanks, Hiram K H. At least I can console myself by knowing I've played through one of the best amps around.

Yes it's the most recent version with the KT120s.

The years are catching up on me, I'm afraid, and I've decided to go down the lightweight route. So I've decided (somewhat reluctantly as I know I'll regret it) to put my Matamp rig up for sale. Bought in 2012, I've had it from new and it's in absolutely pristine condition. It comprises a 200 watt GT200 head and an 8 ohm 4x10 cab rated at 1200 watts. Comes with Roqsolid covers for both. The head uses 4 x KT120s delivering 200 watts of clean tubey warm bass. The cab is fitted with 4 B&C drivers. This is quality gear, hand built in Huddersfield. They are a work of art. Due to the weight, this is collection only but a meet up within 100 miles of Leeds is possible for the cost of the fuel.

Thanks Lozz196. I can't go any lower than this on price. I'd be better hanging on to it as it's too good to let go for less.

Hi Dingus I'm going to check them out. I looked on Strings Direct but the Boomers they had were all extra long length so I need to be careful on the type I choose. Thanks for the advice Regards Pete

Hi Dingus Thanks for that info. It's a bit of a minefield is the string thing. There are so many brands out there but only a few manufacturers. You never really know whose strings you are getting when you buy a set. Almost worth a topic on its own? I'll remember the GHS thing when I next buy some because the Lakland strings have a nice feel to them. Cheers, Pete

Where are you based?

Are you open to trades?

Open to trades for a Lakland 5501 or a 4401.

Can make these £10 plus postage if that helps?

Fancy a trade for my Sterling by Musicman Ray34?

I have a Matamp 4x10 and can vouch for these cabs. Hand built, sealed cab with no horn. Very deep (physically) cab that really allows the bass frequencies to develop. Sounds wonderful! Good luck with the sale.
