    Im after an amp sleeve rather than the usual rackcase type offerings but all I can find on the likes of eBay etc is ratfur covered efforts. The tolex ones seem to go for an absolute fortune. I know I could go to the effort of buying the rat fur ones (which are around £25) and recover it but im surprised at the this seemingly big gap in the market. Anyone ever comes acorss the tolex sleeves at all that aren't in the sort of £75+ bracket?

    Didn't think id ever see a less convincing roadworn than a Limelight!

    Ideally id like to swap this for a like-for-like speakon to jack cable for my new amp rather than sell. Excellent build quality and in perfect working order. Based in Bolton but will post

    Also a bit of a fan of ashdown (bar the terrible CTM15!) Always LOVED the tone from the old Spyder series heads, never understand how they weren't a bigger success and continued

    Hmmm, an Ashdown CTM 30 through an Ampeg 410he, giggable for small/medium pub gigs with no PA support?

      I used a 30 watt rated Ashdown Little Bastard with my Markbass 2x10 and 1x15 cabs for a single gig, I found it was nowhere near loud enough and switched back to the Markbass head at half time, I have to say I was disappointed as we were much liked by pub landlords as a decent covers band who didn't play too loud! So the fact it couldn't even manage a pretty restrained covers band gig in an estate pub meant it was not going to be any good at all for bigger gigs

      The amp went back the following day!

      If you don't mind it being gritty it may do the job. You probably want more like a 50w amp to not sweat about it though. T

      Like Roger2611, I tried using my LB30 on a few gigs but it was nowhere near loud enough. I have a CTM100 (for sale on this very forum) that does the job admirably though.

    Red dots are wipeboard marker so will rube straight off

    Would consider trades/part ex for Warwick Tubepath 5.1, Ampeg SVT III non-pro or At a push Ashdown Little Bastard

    UK made Ashdown ABM 300 Evo II Head in excellent working condition. Only "issue" is the VU meter is missing its glass front, I didn't even notice till a few weeks ago and ive had the amp a while now! Still lights up and works, just no glass front. Lovely valvey vintage type tone when used with my flats loaded P bass and Ampeg 410HE and the valve drive on using the 12AX7. Will get pics up as soon as I get into our rehearsal space. Collection from Bolton or if I can get enough packing stuff together I could potentially post within UK. £125 is the collected from Bolton price

    If I had the cash and you were local id snap this up, marry it up with the Mesa BB 750 im watching on ebay and be in tonal nirvana :). Good luck with the sale

    Aidan bought some used flats off me in an effortlessly smooth transaction. Nae danger here

    Had a long interest in the warwick tube amps - obviously they aren't technically all valve but im looking at the likes of the Tubepath and the Pro Tube. I did get a lemon of a Tubepath on ebay that put me off but im still interested in getting a full working one to try out. For some reason, and in my head only, I envisage them having a sound similar to a mesa BB 750, this is based purely on the little playing time I had with my bust one. Does anyone use either the Tubepath 5.1 or the Pro Tube IV regularly and can comment on their core tone? Im after a lively, gritty, driven, valvey type sound when using my flats loaded P and j basses through my ampeg 4x10he
  14. Pow_22
    All sold, thanks
  15. Pow_22
    Just the Elites left now

    Definitely agree with the ABM recommendations or even the Sypder series heads. Cab wise is the difficult one, ive yet to try a truly lightweight cab that didn't sound.....er.....lightweight.

    Came out of my 78 Tokai P bass. A little to dark for me, I wanted a more woody tone. These would be ideal to beef up a weedy sounding P bass. Come with original brass shielding plate attached. Plenty of wire left, will need to dig out the screws tho, they have gone awol £40.00 inc UK P&P, can knock a few quid off if collected in Bolton.

    Elites Detroit Flats - 45-105. Silks in decent condition. Plenty of life left. £13.50 inc UK P&P La Bella 760FS. Silks frayed up at tuner end. Still plenty of life and lively. £15.00 inc UK P&P Original Fender Flats (not 9050's). Need to check guage but id say 100-40, certainly light. No silks at tuner end, light green at bridge. Still very lively and not broken in. £15.00 inc UK P&P All are cut for 4-in-row fender type headstock.

    Anyone in the Northwest after a GK 2x12 cab?  Im after a head but the seller wont split the rig and I don't need another cab :(

  21. Pow_22
    Sold Brian a tonestyler type P bass loom. No problems and very straight forward
  22. Pow_22
    One of these is definitely on my wants list. So far ive whittled it down to an Ashdown Spyder, Mesa (BB750 or walkabout) or one of these. Lovely sounds on WOT's youtube channel (along with some tasty P basses!)
  23. Pow_22
    i bought mine supposedly working off of ebay for around £250. Turns out the seller wasn't very honest and the amp had issues in that three internal fuse holders had snapped. I made do with soldering the fuses to the remains of the fuseholders and the amp has worked fine since. Needs sorting properly tho really with new fuse holders/clips. I do have it on ebay at the mo (not a plug BTW) with an more honest description that the original ad!
