Earbrass Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) [b]SOLD: CRATE CPB150 POWER BLOCK: 150W Stereo/Mono Guitar Amplifier: £95 posted to within UK (£85 collected from SE London)[/b] Really nice example of this amp, in excellent condition. Complete with original box, User Manual, carrying case and power lead. Great little back-up amp. The secret of using with bass guitar is not to use the pre-amp, which is designed for guitar and set to distort at quite low levels, so that if you want a clean tone you can't have much volume. Thanks to the flexible routing options, though, it's dead easy to bypass the pre-amp, and feed a line from your SansAmp or whatever straight into the power amp section, which works a treat. - headphone out - 3 band eq - mono/stereo power amp input / fx loop - DI out on XLR - cd/mp3 input Cute as a kitten and with a very cool blue light. How could you resist?

CyberBass Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I have one of these I rent out at the studio, nice and loud, good quality mono/stereo guitar amp. Have a bump on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earbrass Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 One of these just sold on ebay for £125 + £10 p+p - grab yourself a bargain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 You can bypass the "speaker emulation" circuit with a stereo jack to twin phono adaptor and single phono to twin phono lead like this: You may have to experiment to make sure you've plugged the mono plug into the right socket (you have a 50-50 chance of being right first time). Great little amp, mine acts as a monitor amp for the PA (just using the power amp part). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therealting Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Ok, this is tempting - I had one and stupidly left it at a gig, and I live in Greenwich! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
