NOW SOLD! MODS PLEASE LOCK GOOD OL' BASSCHAT MARKETPLACE!

Bought this on here a couple of years back but it doesn't get used so out it goes. The reason it doesn't get used is simple: It's too f***ing heavy, man... One of the original speakers blew so I replaced them both with a pair of Precision Devices 12s I'd had knocking about. Now, these are great speakers but they ain't Kappalites, y'know? Of course, if you're young and strong like what I once was, that won't bother you. You'll just think, "I love this old skool shit and the way it makes me look and sound like the Rock God I am". The speakers alone would set you back more than I'm asking and without the top-notch cabinetry. This a real handsome cab and no mistake. Were I not such a pussy I'd put some wheels on it (75mm castors with locks dead cheap on Ebay), buy it a nice wee jacket from Roqsolid or similar, pair it with any decent head and be ready to roll. But, sadly, I'm old and feeble so here we are. I've got good at packaging lately so will despatch to anywhere in the UK at your cost and risk. It measures about 2' x2'x16''. It's original weight was about 60lbs so probably about 70 lbs or so now with the new drivers. Good overall condition. Couple nicks on the Tolex barely visible and no damage to the grill cloth. These cabs are still in production and a quick Google shows the cheapest new to be £745 at Bax and they don't have one in stock. That price is with the standard drivers, of course, rather than the cut-above ones you'd get with this cab. Any questions feel free. Thanks for looking. Shug

I'm loving this and at a fair price, too. How does one use it into a single full range cab? Do you turn the 100w amp to zero and set the crossover fully counter clockwise? As with the 400RB, for God's sake someone buy this before I have to...

Great, great amps. I have a slightly later one - same model but IEC mains plug. Just got back in from a gig. I think the trick with them is to put the drive and master up high and control the volume with the input gain. Somebody buy this before I do. GLWTS Shug

It is a beaut. Having got it out of storage and cleaning it up I've started to use it on a few shows. Sounds great and looks classy.

Shipping to all regions. Even Southampton.😉

Now Sold. On Face book.😉

I try, man, I try. Still got the fkr, though...

C'mon, Guys. No love for this stone-cold classic piece of loveliness? Did a small theatre show last night - Dylan tribute so not mega loud but not a chamber orchestra either. Master on 9 for max power amp valviness, gain on about 4, eq flat-ish (who knows where flat is on these?) sounded beautiful. Runs quiet as a mouse - no pops, crackles, buzzes etc. Looks gorgeous, too... Less than 2' wide so it'll sit on a whole lot of even quite modest cabs nicely. Only weighs 33 lbs, so not a big carry by any means. Don't know why I'm selling it, really, but my loss could for sure be your gain. Look, I know times is tough, so my best offer to you would be £450. That's £3 a watt - a Leo Fender, made in California, 1970's watt, mind, not your dodgy think-of-a-number-and-double-it digi-watt. You know you want it. You deserve it, frankly. You'll not see another, either, chances are. A genuine, fully funktional, cool as fck, real-world usable vintage classic that won't cost a fortune in maintenance, won't be moody and unreliable, won't break your back or your bank and will, I'd bet money, appreciate in value. I've got a couple of nice cabs coming up that would suit this ol' gal down to the ground and I'd cut a real special deal on one with this amp. Be quick before I sober up and change my mind.

I won't pretend I'm not slightly envious! Atomic Rooster doing good at the minute, though. New songs ! Recording! Festivals and Europe in the Summer! S'all good, man

Thanks, man

You and me both, Binky. Same applies to me Rumble 500. Not to mention the quite lovely Musicman head, Time of year, I guess. Thanks, though.

Thanks, Norm. Looks like The Animals are doing great business at the minute. Keep it up!

Make me an offer. I should warn you, however, that she is faulty. Spares or repair.

Hey, Joe! Grand. Bank transfer's as easy as owt, I guess. My details...

Ha! Y'ain't wrong. More to come, too, ancient and modern. Got a lovely 72/3 Traynor Custom Special head, all present and correct, an early series Demeter pre amp, a big ol' Aguilar 412, an Ampeg 212 (Great, heavy as, though), coupla old school power amps, maybe a couple of pre-amp pedals. Probably more... How you liking that Bergantino? Love to you and Jan Shug

Bought these earlier this month. Put em on me Jazz but find I don't like em any more. Used for one gig only but I've put the Labellas back on. Used to be my regular strings before I changed to flats. Gauges are 50, 70,85 and 105. £52.99 at Strings Direct. Yours for £20 collected or I'll stick em in a Jiffy bag and post to UK for £25. Cheers Shug

I know. Blimey...

Well, y'know, it could be yours. I'm playing through it right now. It sounds as good as it looks. Better, maybe...

Hi BassChatters Here's a little beauty for you. Not mint, but not a knacker either. Runs quiet as a mouse but will go VERY loud if you like. S/S pre - amp with 150watt valve power amp. Sound gorgeous and looks cool as you like. Mosyly original bar the fretcloth on the front panel which had gone way beyond relic and needed replaced. The build quality is real high end. Look at those rubber and stainless skids it sits on. All the nickel hardwear has a lovely patina and the Tolex, probably the tattiest part of this fine amplifier, is in fair to middling order. I bought this off Surroundedbymanatees during lockdown and it was given a clean bill of health by the tech I use at that time. It's seen little use since then. 4 x 6L6 GC's by JJ which look (and sound) to be pretty new. Caps look to have been replaced in 2019 (see pics). 23"x 10" x 9" approx Weight is 33lbs Anything you feel I might have missed just get in touch. Collection preferred but will happily courier at cost. Thanks for looking Shug
