    No Longer For Sale. This was Kiwi's Trace Elliot V8 that I bought from him 6 or 7 years ago . Plenty of info and pics of actual amp if you search " kiwi V8 " in amps for sale forum. Seem's it may have always been owned , and cared for, by fellow Basschat members . I'll avoid the use of superlatives, has always been well looked after . If you have to ask how heavy it is, it's not for you ! Selling due to my advancing years. Will also be listing my V6, V4, VA350, Quatavalve, Hexavalve and other TE bits as time goes on. Pics to follow. Cash on collection only from Worthing, or Chichester, where the amp can be tested. Mike.

    K'bump ! see Kiwi's item in the guitar section, info on Alan Knight.
  3. Chimike
    yes, let it run !

    Don't forget the Ashdown 550 spyder ! Simple, and brilliant preamp coupled to the ABM output stage

    I have one of those BT15 heads, quite nice sounding, not very loud, but get b....hot in use. No eq buttons. same circuit was used for a combo,SVT15, or SVT75 , I think. they got really hot in use, too.

    Absolutely spot on ! Old Acoustic stuff, up to 1980/81, is where the Magic is. Pity you're so far away.

    Someone went to an awful lot of trouble to do WHAT !

    Hi Bob, Apologies for late reply , not ignoring you ! I'll contact the guy who asked me to hold it, check what the situation is. Best Wishes, mike.

    Yep, Thomann were showing stock of these today, So I had to buy one. I do have a 360/361 rig, so will be able to compare ! I also have a 70's V4b, so there's a pattern developing here . Where will this end ?

    Well, Just finished populating my turret board, and starting to solder. , However , don't underestimate how long it takes to gather all the various bits you'll need , and the cost. Def makes that trip top look like a good deal !

    checked my old trace preamp today and only two of the pins are used, on the xlr input. might be worth checking if yours is the same.

    black tolex ?

    trouble is, I was only looking for my TRACE V8, it's in there ,somewhere !
  14. Chimike
    Not sure what's happened there, with those pics !

    I sense the need for a B15 shootout at the next basschat bash ! Paging Mr Beedster, I'm sure he could advise on sound, having owned one of the new reissues with the 64/66 options.

    re the SB12 circuit. Ah, but there was a later version , using 6l6gc's, however, it doesn't use octal preamp tubes, either. Neither does the B15S in that comparison
  19. Chimike
    Anyway, I blame my spell-checker !😀
  20. Chimike
    Ha, Well , it might be worth looking at the later SB12 circuit, using 6L6's, as that appears to be what you are describing . I often use an SB 12, and they are fabulous sounding, and lighter than my old B15 !
  21. Chimike
    Gotta subscribe to this ! I also caught the bug during lockdown, and my B15 build is coming along nicely. I went for the 64/66 option, and found a build manual on the Trinity amps website that was very helpful. Another source of info was CtG B15. Great project, go for it !
  22. Chimike
    No hurry, It is a difficult time , to say the least , but far better to be safe , than sorry.
  23. Chimike
    Still available. thank you for asking !
  24. Chimike
    Great it got sorted, enjoy .
  25. Chimike
