    How about two lovely, new, lightweight, upgraded Purple Chili 1 x 12's, plus £60, and I'll do the driving.

    I have another thread ' amp for a 410 cab', saying that I like the sound of my Peavey 410 cab with a Peavey Firebass head. But I want to get another amp, and was thinking of the OTB 500. I did try one previously with 12" speaker cabs and it was ok, before I decided on the 410 route. So do you Oranges think the TB 500 would be ok with my P 410 ?

    So, I've tried loads of cabs with 12" speakers, bur having recently bought an old Peavey 410, I prefer the sound of this to all the previous cabs. I use a Hofner Club, semi accoustic with flat wound strings, so I guess theb 410's take out the woolyness. I'm using this cab with a Peavey Firebass 700, which is ok, but is really heavy. I'm gonna keep the cab, but which lightweight amp would sound similar to the firebass ? I tried an Orange terror, which was ok with the previoius 12's, but would it suit this P 410 ?

    [quote name='4 Strings' post='1101430' date='Jan 24 2011, 09:44 PM']Used to have Kimono My House years ago. Wish I still did. Must admit, I thought they were Aussies.[/quote] Yeah, ' This Town ' , in 1974 was so different. And I imagined at the time they were German for some reason. But they're American.

    It's the same, 16 ohms. It actaully says 15 / 16 ohms. And it's 50 watts, and 110 watts USA - are American watts smaller ? Aparently it is a ' David ' cabinet - smaller than the Goliath.

[url="http://www.harris-hire.co.uk/harris_forsale.pdf"]http://www.harris-hire.co.uk/harris_forsale.pdf[/url][/quote] had a chat with Phil Harris. Great bloke, very helpful, and seams to know everything about vintage stuff. Thanks for the lead.

    I changed the drivers to take more power. I had a TH RH 450 head, which ran the 300 w celestions ok. But when I changed to an Orange Terror 500, they couldn't take the power. 450 to 500 shouldn't make a difference, but it did. So I changed one first, and it handled the power no problem. Comparing the two, the eminences are not as loud at the volume setting ( lower SPL ) but to me sound better. So I changed the other.

    EDIT - one of the cabs, the PC, is now sold. This leaves the Zoot cab which is getting lonely. The post below has been edited to suit. A Purple Chili / Zoot 1 x 12 cab. It has been fitted with an Eminence 3012 LF ( instead of the original celestion ) . These are 450 w each at 8 ohm. The cab for sale is the bottom one in the picture. Unmarked, and complete with cover. Size 20.5 " wide x 19.5" high x 16" deep, and weigh 13 kg. Selling for £ 270 including delivery. EDIT - I could replace the Eminence with a new, original Celestion BN 12 orange, for the same price. Therefore, it would be as new, with new driver, and unmarked cabinet, with cover, for £270. New these cost £375 each, without the cover, and the Eminence cost £115. .

    I like the sound of my two 1x12 cabs. But I've just bought an old Peavey 4 x 10, and it's got more bass. The 12's are neo's in small cabs, and the 10's are in a big heavy box. is it the box that makes the difference ?

    [quote name='gareth' date='Jan 20 2011, 09:02 PM' post='1096809'] Will this fit a trace elliot 1518 cabinet? I have one with a blown speaker and have been tempted to put a 4ohm unit in it so i can use the cab on its own with my te V6 amp Thanks [/quote) I don't know, but it should do. Your cab has a 15" celestion as standard. I've just changed the 12" speakers in my cabs from celestion to eminence, and they fitted ok. If you could get the dimensions of yours, either by measuring or from TE, I could compare them to mine.

    For sale, Peavey Millennium 5 string bass, model AC EXP. Approx 4 years old. Excellent condition except for a couple of minor marks in the finish, which should polish out. These are not scratches. There are some scratches on the plastic control cover on the back. Works fine, and sounds good. Just looked at the last picture, which seams to show marks on the back of the body. There aren't, it's the photo. Here's the specs for it: 34'' scale (864mm). 21 frets. 5-bolt maple neck with rosewood fretboard. Basswood body with quilt veneer top. Finger bridge with string-thru design. Two active VFL™ pickups. Volume, blend, bass, mid and treble controls. Satin black hardware. It is an active bass and takes 2x9 volt batteries. Cost around £360 new. Selling for £190, including hard case. Plus delivery.
