[quote name='Jimibass' post='1182336' date='Mar 30 2011, 03:19 PM']V-type amps are fantastic. The matching cab is a 2X15" which (not surprisingly) suits it perfectly.[/quote] You mean this one? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=125690"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=125690[/url] Wish I could afford this amp, as I'd [i]love[/i] to hear what it would sound like with my 1528... There's a lot of Trace gear for sale at the moment, but these two really are the mutt's nuts. Maybe someone should buy both of them?

[quote name='TheFear' post='1179301' date='Mar 28 2011, 11:41 AM']all the knobs light up[/quote] Oh right! On my old mk IV AH250 there was a separate UV tube, but it was in front of the panel. So this one is backlit then? Cool!

[quote name='HengistPod' post='1179216' date='Mar 28 2011, 10:28 AM']Just what I need myself, but three times too expensive for my poor pub-band pocket. [/quote] Yeah. "ono" is one thing, but I'd have to be mad to let it go for £100!! Anything you'd like to trade?

[quote name='TheFear' post='1176879' date='Mar 26 2011, 09:12 AM']Trade mark Trace Elliot green backlighting - which looks fab on a darkened stage[/quote] Er.... where exactly?

[quote name='dmccombe7' post='1176853' date='Mar 26 2011, 07:36 AM']Time to get rid of the Ashdown which seems to get slated quite a lot on BC although its served me well for 5 yrs without any great issue.[/quote] Seems an odd reason to get rid of some gear?

I really like the white grilles! Have a bump on me.

[quote name='jakekirkpatrick' post='1174883' date='Mar 24 2011, 04:41 PM']So what d'ya think on price? - about right? Cheers jake[/quote] Seems about right. That V-type head would go beautifully with the V-type 2x15 cab I am selling! I suspect the head is worth more than the two cabs combined... The head may be rare, but those cabs ain't! Is this head the fore-runner of the V4?

[quote name='Mazoko' post='1173626' date='Mar 23 2011, 06:25 PM']I'm interested in that bass, and have been having trouble fingind it, do you know where I can find one of those? thanks[/quote] I got mine (in black) from Thomann... [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/cort_curbow_5mic.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/cort_curbow_5mic.htm[/url] The list price is nearly £500! Great basses for the price - and especially at £170!!

Mmmmmm. Interesting! I can't view those pics at work, but I'll have a look when I get home. Out of interest, what is the serial number? (Should be on the nut end where the headstock isn't).

Maybe there is some way that the "Basschat logistics division" can help with this one? Anyone in the Falkirk/Stirling/Edinburgh area that could help move this cab down south a few miles? I could take it from north Northumberland down to, say, North Yorkshire... Just a thought as there seems to be interest in the South and Midlands, and I guess shipping for this beast would be pretty cost-prohibitive. Works for the Olympic torch!

Surely it's worth listing on here too? How "early" is it? Mine is a 1986 and i have always lusted after a fretless matching partner for it...

[quote name='Clarky72' post='1171874' date='Mar 22 2011, 10:51 AM']Just noticed there's a lot of Ashdown gear up here... hopefully the offer of free bonus paint will sell mine first! [/quote] If you painted the cab itself, it would look a bit like the Trace cab that I am trying (unsuccessfully!) to sell!

[quote name='thomastesselaar' post='1171302' date='Mar 21 2011, 08:58 PM']Well, I live in the Netherlands. Ships would sink and planes would be VERY tailheavy, but i still think shipping this to pair it with its brother 1248H (4x12") and my orange bass terror would be worth the risk! [/quote] It already has casters. Simply fit an engine and you could drive it onto the ferry from North Shields to Ijmuiden! Some people only see problems....

[quote name='deaky' post='1170687' date='Mar 21 2011, 02:03 PM']Thanks conan. Hope your well. Hope your still enjoying the LH500.[/quote] Yes, and yes! Good luck with the sale mate - things seem a little slow on the for sale threads at the mo...

Having seen the cab I can vouch that it is indeed in brilliant condition. Stuart is a lovely lad and a pleasure to deal with!

[quote name='noirpunk' post='1170052' date='Mar 20 2011, 09:18 PM']Was looking at one of these a while back but couldn't find a cab that could handle the power load that I could feasably transport.[/quote] BareFaced Big One?
