    I'm using one. It's very light and has the potential to go very very loud. Seems to be usual PV reliability so far.

    I bought one of these excellent flight cases in March to rack my Demeter power amp and Crown preamp. However, I've since sold the Crown and the Peavey reaplcement is much shallower, so I'd like to get a 3u shallow case instead. The flight case is pretty much mint, used at one gig and a couple of rehearsals. Specs: [list] [*]Thon Rack 4U Economy [*]7 mm plywood panels [*]aluminum edging [*]2 spring grips [*]4 rubber feet [*]rackstrip on front only [*]40cm deep [*]dimensions: 535 x 225 x 505 mm [*]weight: 7.6 kg [/list] [size=5][color="#FF0000"]SOLD[/color][/size] Cheers Gareth

    [quote name='BurritoBass' post='851367' date='May 29 2010, 07:13 PM']OTPJ is right. The mid-late 80s had flipped the logo sizes around by that stage, these are early JV[/quote] Yes, thinking about it my mate's P was bought new 85ish and is definitely an early JV.

    I believe the much vaunted original series Squier basses from the mid to late 80s had this. Really good basses.

    [quote name='velvetkevorkian' post='850349' date='May 28 2010, 02:32 PM']Is this feasible as a one hand lift? Could you take it on the tube easily?[/quote] If you haven't already looked, the spec is 43lb (19.5kg) and measure 13.8" wide x 17.9" deep x 17.5" tall.

    Great basses and a very good price.

    Dimensions and weight please, and where are you located?

    [quote name='Toasted' post='842099' date='May 19 2010, 02:26 PM']Yes, it's really good. I've played this bass and the midi system is one of the best I've used [/quote] Do it Joe, you know you want to!

    Quick update. Used the amp at rehearsal last night - single channel into one Euphonic Audio CXL112 - and it was plenty loud enough. Tone is big and clean. Everyone loved the lights

    [quote name='obbm' post='833778' date='May 10 2010, 11:23 PM']Doesn't look very 1U to me. [/quote] Indeed no Dave, it isn't As I said in the original post, the main criteria was a light and shallow amp; 1u was simply because I like the look of them. Fickle I know....

    [quote name='dood' post='833378' date='May 10 2010, 06:23 PM']I think, in the light of the responses read above - you made the right choice! - Tombboy sold me one of his Peavey power amps recently and have to say, I'm really impressed with it's capable output and fuctionality. I will probably use it as a spare now, as my Hartke rig has now arrived - but yeah, good on ya![/quote] Thanks Dan. Yes, I must say I've used a lot of Peavey heads over the year, mainly for PA but a couple of DPC1400Xs for bass rigs as well, and they've always been really reliable workhorses. My main requirement was something light, and at 7lbs this is perfect. Happy days!

    [quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='833248' date='May 10 2010, 05:00 PM']Think there are plenty of variations on the theme though, might not be too consistent, some have a bridge specific output, some are binding post only for bridging, some have internal switching that uses a normal output.[/quote] Absolutely. For those of a technical nature, this cable is wired 1+/2+ on a speakon cable.

    [quote name='chriswilliams666' post='833196' date='May 10 2010, 04:22 PM']Excuse my ignorance mate. What is the difference between a normal power amp/bass head compared to a bridged power amp?[/quote] If your stereo power amp has a facility to bridge, and not all do, you are effectively combining the power output from each channel and making the amp mono. This requires a speaker cable specially wired for the job.

    I had one of those and it was great; the eq is really powerful. I chopped mine in px for a Trace combo at the Bass Centre around that time, so this may even be my old bass?!
  19. franzbassist
    Well, I sold out in the end and picked up one of the new Peavey IPR1600 amps. (image lifted off Talkbass) It's a bit bling, but it is light (7lbs), plenty powerful enough for my needs, and very loud!

    Why on earth is this still here??!!!!
  22. franzbassist
    I [i]so[/i] want this, but sadly I have no cash at the moment.

    Dave made this for me a few weeks ago but as I'm selling the Crown power amp I bought it for I no longer have need of it 1 metre long, made of Klotz 4 sq mm cable with speakons either end, wired for use with BRIDGED power amps. [b]£15, posted 1st class.[/b] Thanks Gareth
