Delberthot Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I am considering selling my cab. Its one of the carpet covered square 2x15" ones that were built to go with the much revered V-type valve heads. As far as I can tell it is sealed, the bottom end it produces would suggest that anyway. The grill isn't visible as it is covered in a grill cloth slightly lighter green than the carpet so it looks good and will take something hitting it as it still has the proper Trace metal grill behind it. Condition, I reckon would probably be 9/10 and that's being strict. not 9/10 given the age but I've honestly seen cabs in shops in worse nick than this. Until last year it had lived in a proper full flight case that weighted as much as the cab itself so I sold that and bought one of those waterproof ones from Roqsolid or somewhere like that in black with the green piping. It is also fitted with 4 heavy duty casters, with the front 2 having locks on them. Now I'm pretty savvy when it comes to gear but I don't recall ever seeing another one of these 2x15"s and certainly nothing similar in such good condition so for the first time I'm asking for some help to see about what sort of price I might get for this.

Its rated at 500w @ 8ohms, the amp I am using with it is a GK700RB II and trust me it does not need another cab to get it down to 4 ohms to be heard in a big pub wth no PA support.

gary mac Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Haven't got a clue, but respect if you have managed to lift that in out of a car. My back aches just looking at it, but I do love the old Trace gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted September 26, 2010 Author Share Posted September 26, 2010 Its not too bad. About 40kg. I had to lift it up 3 flights of stairs a few weeks ago and it wasn't too bad. It does help that it has big wheels cos it more or less goes over most surfaces, although obviously not stairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markstuk Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I would estimate somewhere between £150 and £170 including the cover... Big/Heavy cabs are getting harder to shift these days (forgive the pun!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 (edited) That's maybe the problem these days. The world is full of bass playing jessies who simply must have the lightest neo cab and micro amp to cope with their frail bodies. I jest of course. Or do I? :brow: An 8x10" I can understand but I was comparing weights with Ampeg gear - its 20kg less than their 8x10" and 3 kg more than their 4x10" so its not that heavy Edited September 27, 2010 by Delberthot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
