Just picked up Alan's Super 12T, fantastic guy, fantastic player and a dead easy deal. Thanks

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1321030746' post='1434657'] My SWR400 runs VERY hot...you'd jump if you put your hand on it. No fan needed either.. It was built and designed that way...altho later models had a fan, IIRC. I always think amps that can do this are built very well with good materials. [/quote] Yep, plus 1; I recall a conversation with Trace Elliot about the Commando combo being designed to run hot when I was a spotty teenager and didn't understand these things. Equally my hifi amp is a heavily biased A-B design which runs so hot I had to rethink it's use and position when my son started to crawl (seriously!); I'd hope (and expect) the Kilo to be designed as such. Doubt Hartke would have let it slip through after so long in pre-production.

Sadly patch, Alex has to think about his direct sales rather than if someone is looking to move one on second hand, that doesn't help his bottom line at all.

Si just bought my Barefaced Vintage (she left today, sob!) and he was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Great communications and a thoroughly pleasant fella

Bought [url="http://basschat.co.uk/user/21054-jrixn1/"]John's[/url] old Zoot 1x12 cab back in October, and he even hand delivered it. Can't ask for a better service or a nice chap. Cheers

[quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1320693413' post='1430177'] I examine the bass and then play it unplugged. If I like it so far then I'll ask to amplify it. Then I play all the notes on each string to see it it plays evenly. Then I play it with right hand by the bridge, then right hand above pickup, then right hand over the end of neck, etc. I'm checking out the bass not performing for a load of onlookers. [/quote] This. (In a shop) Friends never ask me to play something as they've all seen me play and know how crap I am

Cheers! That cab is about to go in favour of the smaller S12T

Should be done by now. Give em a bell and chase!

Bloody shame, sorry to hear it Darren Good luck with ventures new

Brilliant news! A good end to a sh*tty story

Not quite sure how I just "liked" the OP! My 2c would be to go for another LH1000 if you liked it!
