I've decided to sell my Trace Elliot rig, which has served me faithfully for the past 5 or so years. The reason I've decided to move it on is simply because:
A) I don't need a 4x10" cab anymore
I've just bought an Ashdown Mark King signature 2x10" combo which will suit my needs much better. I bought the Trace Elliot stuff chasing Mark King's tone and since I plan on buying another Status bass this year I thought I might as well go for it and get his amp as well!
The cab is definitely for sale now. It's a 4x10" cab with carry handles on the side and that rubber type skin cover. The previous owner believed it was a 1992 or 1993 model but I've no way of knowing this, I bought it because it's a great sounding cab.
The head is possibly for sale at the moment, if someone really wants it then it will go as soon as the Ashdown stuff has arrived. It's a GP7 SM Bass Preamp rated at 300W. I'm sure many will be familiar with this sort of thing - it has a 7 band graphic EQ, two preset modes, active and passive inputs, an effects panel, a brightness balance for the EQ along with a full mute and an EQ off button. Basic stuff really, but well looked after, reliable and with great tone.
The stuff has only been out of the house a few times since I got it, usually when I've took the head out for recording sessions. I've been fortunate enough to have been able to gig mainly with DI stuff - this kit hasn't had a hard life with me! It's served me well and ideally I'd have kept it but space is a real premium for me at the moment, I've bought the Ashdown with nowhere to put it! I'd rather the Trace Elliot stuff be bought and get used rather than become a coffee table in my front room!
I'd like £100 for the head and £150 for the cab collected from Newcastle Upon Tyne. If you're interested in both we may be able to negotiate a bit on the price!
Here are some rather gloomy pictures I've taken with my iphone and a head torch. I appreciate they're not the best quality but they show whats on offer. If anyone really wants better pictures I'll see what I can do during daylight hours!
