Hi, this is a very rare prototype Trace Elliot V Type Valve bass Amp (200W) from 1995. This was one of the very first V Type's made!
This is in great working order, have used it for many years but now unfortunately, time moves on and sadly I don't play anymore.
As you will from the pics, this has a Trace Elliot badge on the front and not the normal V2, V8 etc and also on the back the labels with serial number are hand written.
I also have copies of the original wiring documents and a copy of a shipping note from Kaman Music (Trace Elliot) to Eric Clapton. Eric Clapton's Bass player in 1995-1996 was Dave Bronze and he had an endorsement from Trace Elliott!
This really is a very rare piece of kit with a bit of history, so please no time wasters.
I'm located near Leeds Castle (Maidstone) in Kent.
Please let me know if you want to come and have a look.
Many thanks
Paul (real name)

Just up the road from me.... oooh tempting! I once had a v6 and it was top notch. This sounds like it has some nice history with it too!

Nice amp, I loosely based the all valve preamp of my PC750 heads on this amp, which when I checked was also not dissimilar to the original Fender Bassman front end.

I wonder if this is the actual amp head Dave Bronze used at Live at Hyde Park 1996 which I had on VHS. He had one sitting on a Trace 4x10. Beautiful, and a fantastic price 

Hi, I have seen some Youtube videos before but the camera is too far away and the images not that great to be 100% sure, but does look like it and the dates seem correct also!
