JPJ Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Anybody got a feeling for how much my SWR SM1500 is worth in today's market? She's a serious piece of pro kit and one of the first in the UK. I'm the second owner having bought her on here from BGTAndy. She's housed in a shock mounted flight case. Sounds-wise, she is my tonal nirvana, and I'm only contemplating selling her due to her weight and my advancing years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Serious kit lad. Personally I wouldn't let it go for under £1900 if it was well looked after. They're upwards of £2500 new at the mo I think. (Any idea what you'd replace it with? I'd imagine its not something that can be easily replicated) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hearing good reports of the Genz Benz Streamliner 900, and really liked the sound of a GK Fusion 550 (but worry that this might be a little underpowered). In truth, I'll probably end up keeping her and just spending more time at the gym until I can lift her on to my cabs on my own lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Aye 70 odd lbs aint it? Eden might also be worth a look. And then theres Glock...................

ThomBassmonkey Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 [quote name='JPJ' timestamp='1327271335' post='1508778']GK Fusion 550 (but worry that this might be a little underpowered). [/quote] That's really not something you need to worry about. GKs are known for punching above their weight when it comes to power. The Fusion 550 is still a very weighty beast though, you might want to try the MB Fusion, it's got a similar sound in mind but approaches it slightly differently and it weighs sod all as well as being tiny.
