Boing! -
Yeah they've recently moved premises and half of the guys are now in America for NAMM so it may take a little longer than normal for a response

[quote name='Machines' timestamp='1421356095' post='2660399'] Only 35.5" scale for the B string? Pointless. [/quote] Not really, it makes enough of a difference on my prototype multiscale bass.

Lovely -
I'm sure the cabs are Mark IV or Series V, but maybe they're earlier?
-
I think that's Mk IV or Series V, mid/late 80s

They look ace! Will give you a shout and we'll sort something soon, I need to liberate my SCs from the band lock up first ...
-
Have you gone for the black or silver grille? When they do arrive we need to catch up over a cuppa and compare Super Compact with Two10

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1421362062' post='2660496'] An [Oh-God-I've-Got-GAS-for-this] -type bump. [/quote] You'd better buy it then....

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1421271456' post='2659313'] Indeed. 35[sup]1[/sup]/[sub]2[/sub] hours. Tsk tsk. Now, if I were a Mod... [/quote] Unless I can't count it was 12 hours

Cracking cabs, I have two and they're my favourite cab ever. Just watch out for the 36 hour bumping rule GLWTS

Cheers! It's a great amp, my first all valve head (in fact still my only all valve head, the BTA being a hybrid preamp!) and I love it to bits but I have to follow my one in one out rule, and obey she who... well yes, exactly..,

SOLD I bought this last year from Chenzman and it's a cracking amp but frankly I have too many amps and don't need them all! This is in "OK" visual condition - some slightly rusty corner protectors, some scuffs and tiny rips n the vinyl covering - but excellent internal following a service with Ashdown who declared it 100% fit and healthy and with a long active life ahead of it. The fan is quite noisy but that's my only gripe with it, it sounds brilliant through my Barefaced cabs and certainly not muddy or muffled or any other nonsense you hear said about Ashdown. This has heft and punch as well as depth and warmth - it sounds great, simple as that. £180 -
Bump

I had the Vintage, which was the precursor to this. Absolutely cracking cab, glad you like
-
Another new amp is going to be the Rootmaster800, which looks pretty sweet. Same power section as this Retroglide I believe

It's bizarre, definitely in my top five bass amps I've ever played because it sounds so good, is so simple and bulletproof. I made a friend buy one last year to replace his aging Laney combo and he's incredibly happy with it. Hope it shifts soon for you

Cracking amp, cracking price
-
Trace Elliot T bass. A four or a five ???

Ah new photos now showing a 4! A bargain -
Thanks chaps Pictures as promised, the second one shows the only blemish I can see on the amp which was there when Gareth originally bought it I understand:

Sold pending the usual So after nabbing myself a BTA200 I need to make room or I may get murdered by my better half - she's already told me off for having three bass amps at home so the fourth is the straw threatening the camel's back... I'll get photos up tonight, this is in excellent condition and includes a RoqSolid cover. About 14 months old I believe, I bought it from Walbassist last January. It's a cracking amp, passive tone stack with 100W 2xKT88 valve output stage which sings. A lovely creamy tone and a fabulous break up, it's a brilliant amp with all the valve benefits minus the weight - 19kg I believe (certainly smaller and lighter than the BTA which is a behemoth!) Collection preferable, UK mainland shipping will be £30. I could deliver around the south eastern portion of the M25 (Jct 2 to 10) if it helps - I'm near Jct 8 but work near Jct 3.
