    I think the Twin Valve is just excellent... small, light, powerful, not too expensive to revalve... I'm not exactly in love with the GP7 preamp but the amp sounds just great. A 300w amp will be more powerful but IMHO not more powerful to the point to justify the much higher weight (at least 20-25kg) and the much higher cost to buy and mantain. I think the Twin Valve is just a winner... but I would just hate having it in the combo version. I have an Ashdown 427 (very close to a V8, I think) and of course it sounds amazing but it's huge, ultra-heavy and costs easily 6 times the price of a Twin Valve (used vs used).

    I actually love the sound of big basses (from 7 to 11-12) but honestly I think they require skills, taste and of course practice. And I lack them all 7 is the new sixer. The sound of the high F is very nice and it really offers a useful high range while the 6er is good for chords but only offers a handful of extra notes over a 5er.

    I used it a few times... but there are at least a couple of types. The "French" Chestnut is pretty light and soft, while Italian Chestnut is pretty strong, a bit softer than Ash. No idea how dense is the piece your luthier wants to use but it's definitely a nice timber. I also used it for necks a couple of times.

    Matt bought an Aguilar pickup from me... fastest payment, absolutely smooth transaction.

    I'm in Italy but have shipped amps/basses/cabs almost worldwide before. I also have feedbacks here and elsewhere.

    I've also recorded a 2 minutes clip of the cab with the 3 different crossover positions. They definitely make a difference.

    Price negotiable. Tradewise I'm not really into Fenders or Fender clones, more into old Warwicks, Status basses or nice tube amps.
  18. Matte_black
    Lowered price: £1750.

    Hello... got this as a partial exchange but I really don't need it. Must be a cracking cab, Mesa quality. Neo woofers and tweeter. Still has handtags, original cover, detachable wheels. Shipping won't be cheap since it's not smallest/lightest but send me your ZIP code if interested and I'll find out. Pics to come (tomorrow morning). It's £300 less than a new one. £550 SHIPPED by UPS!

    Thank you! It's a nice piece for sure.

    I guess the preamp is newer, no black epoxy dipped.

    Sorry mate! I never tried them, to be honest. They were on a bass I've sold (put the original back on before the sale).
