molan Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) I'm listing these here on behalf of a friend who is currently in Italy (but also over here in the UK quite regularly). He bought this rig in June of 2011 and they've barely been used at all. Originally intended to demo various basses so even the little use they've had has been at 'home' volume levels. He estimates they've been used for just a few hours. As you can see from the pics below each item really is immaculate. Very rare over here in the UK. Here's some info on the Soul II head: [url="http://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/products_bass.htm"]http://www.glockenkl...oducts_bass.htm[/url] It's essentially a crystal clear 440W (into 4 ohms - which works well with this 4ohm cab) head with "articulate & powerful sound reproduction" - gets great reviews, real pro-quality piece of kit There's less information about the Double on their web site: [url="http://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/products_bass.htm"]http://www.glockenkl...oducts_bass.htm[/url] But there is a small review from Bass Player on a rig exactly like this with more details here: [url="http://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/products_bass.htm"]http://www.glockenkl...oducts_bass.htm[/url] Quite a few luthiers use Glock as their reference systems, Sandberg, Marleaux, Ritter, Clover, Human Base, MTD etc. etc. I think that if such A grade builders see fit to use Glocks to test their basses it kinda gives you an idea of not only how good they are but also how clean & clear they must be - designed to let the bass' natural characteristics shine though without loads of colouration Here's what Bass Player mag said about Glock gear in a review: [size=4][color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"[b]Even with the EQ set flat, it's hard to imagine a more detailed, hi-fi, deep, and overall pleasing bass tone.[/b]"[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"[b]if only the very best will satisfy your gear tones, check out a Glock—if for no other reason than to hear what near-perfect tone sounds like.[/b]"[/font][/color][/size] [b][size=4][color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"The Soul head and Double cab are an excellent match. With the EQ bypassed the Glock rig sounds smooth, effortless, and relaxed, with exceptionally refined detail and a clear focus. Transient response is quick and well controlled without sounding clinical or dry. It really brought out the low-string growl of our Lakland 5-string, and it's one of the few amps we've tried with our Underwood-equipped German upright that didn't require an external preamp to sound really good. "The upright sound is very natural, open, and musical—the Glock reveals the true character of every bass you play through it.[/font][/color][/size][/b] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3][b][size=4]If you have an expensive high-end bass or a fine vintage axe and you're looking for an amp that enhances its subtleties, the Glockenklang Soul and Double should be on your must-audition list—if you have four grand to spend."[/size][/b][/size][/font][/color] Priced at €1,900 (about £1,520 at current Euro exchange rates) - these literally are 'as new' items. Shipping will be on top of this and will depend on location. Not looking to split these at the moment as they just work so well together i Edited May 28, 2012 by molan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve-soar Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I own a 2x12" Double. They are fitted with Volt speakers and as a standalone cab can easily keep up with a rock band, even at 500w. My drummer said that this cab makes his eyeballs vibrate. God knows what 2 stacked would sound like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck_stones Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Oooh If I only had the money, I'd snap this up in an instant. Glockenklang gear is seriously high fidelity, that is one peachy, peachy rig right there. If I suddenly come into any money, expect a PM! molan is an absolute pleasure to do business with too - you can't go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck_stones Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 If I thought I could score the credit I'd actually consider a loan that to bag that beauty. I seriously doubt you could find as a high quality & fidelity, beautifully German engineered piece of kit, let alone in near mint condition, for the price you're asking. Gonna see what I can do about raising funds but I won't hold my breath... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molan Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 Thought there might have been a deal on the cab on its own but haven't heard anything for a while so I'm guessing it's fallen through. Will listen to deals to split the pair but, if so, would need to be sure the cab is sold before parting with the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
