highwayone Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Hi[size=4] all, just bought a Trace Elliot GP7SM200 combo(arriving today) and wondered if anyone on here has one/had one or know a bit about them? I can't find anything on them and was wondering if I can couple it up to a cab and if so what ohms etc? I am a drummer of 25 years and a bassist of 6 months! so not used to anything with a plug! I guess the 200w is RMS?? Your help would be much appreciated cheers.[/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobzilla Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Trace always quote in RMS, not peak. Think you can add an extension. I would go for the Trace 15" cab if I were adding anything to that, but I played quite a lot on just the 4x10 cab. Lots of sound, cleaner than the 15" in my experience, and much better up high. I never quite got on with the single 15" cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHUFC BASS Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Always been my amp of choice - I've tried some other rigs but always find myself coming back to Trace Elliot. Great for all styles of music, reliable and a great sound too - especially the early stuff. When they first came out they knocked spots off anything on the market IMO. The only other amp I'd consider would be an Ampeg SVT of some description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
