Pow_22 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 (edited) Now for sale/trade. I do love this amp but currently GASin for sonething vintage and valvey. I have a Hartke HA5500 hybrid amp still with original box and even cellophane bag the amp came in. Gigged twice but DI'd so never really driven. I use it with the tube pre-amp on most of the way and SS pre-amp almost off and get quite close to a good valve tone. Immaculate condition. Googled them and it appears they go for £475 new so thinking around £375-£350. Would connsider anything similar to fender bassman 135 ( vintage valve amps over 100w). Want to guage interest before i up my search for a 135 and wanted to see how far off i am price wise. It will be collection only from Manchester im afraid but could consider delivery for right deal. Let me know your feelings peeps! Edited March 18, 2011 by Pow_22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pow_22 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 When i say cellophane bag i dont mean like a carrier bag they put the box in haha. I mean inside the box, i still have the cellophane wrapping for around the amp and the polystyrene blocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassnut62 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Bump for a chap with excellent taste. I reckon You will never feel the need for another amp once you get that 135 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pow_22 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 Cheers, my only slight concern is it being underpowered at rehearsals. Live i can mic up but im competing against a guitarist with a Slash sig stack. Defo after one tho, GAS is getting to me!. Managed to pretty much secure a matching 2z15 cab on here so fingers crossed i can sell the Hartke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pow_22 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 Matching Bassman 2x15 purchased (thanks Thornybank). As mentioned this is a feeler, prices are purely based against new ones i found on google. If people think its unrealistic/more knowledge than me certainly shout up.

Pow_22 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Cab is on its way type bump. Pics to follow asap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pow_22 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 OK, somethings come up on the bay that really fits what im after (not bassman but vintage and valvey all the same). As such this is no longer a feeler and is defo up for sale or trade (again, something valvey, vintage and along the lines of bassman 135) just in case the bay one doesnt come to fruition. Price wise im still open to reasonable suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pow_22 Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 Ok, been advised i might be being a little optimistic with my pricing. I based it purely on new ones on google and the fact mine is like new with original box etc. Ive seen a valve amp on the bay that id love so id consider offers of £320 say?

Pow_22 Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 Seen a head thats available in newcastle. I dont really fancy having a valve head posted from there so i may be going picking it up. As such the Hartke could now be available for delivery to any of our northern BC'ers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
