Beedster Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) Best practice amp I've owned, mutli FX and models plus drum machine. However, I now have two (long story)! This one was bought new about 4 weeks ago, has had about 20 hours use total. Paid £149, yours for £75.00 Chris PS and it runs on batteries as well as mains. Great for those small scale outdoor gigs (or busking as it's better known) Edited January 15, 2009 by Beedster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sub-a-dub Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 ...Jeez, these are the dog's b****x! I have one as well that I use in the attic for practice along with a little Roland stereo PA (2 cm 30's) for effects etc., and if I let the mind wander a little it's serious leg-on-the-monitor/"thank you!, goodnight..." territory. At this price an absolute steal!!! Hello Chris by the way - I really enjoy the sales threads!!... Best of luck with the sale All the best from Ireland, Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, I'll post as it's small and light enough to wrap up tight. Let me know either way Cheers Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beedster Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 Apologies folks, don't think I'll post this as I don't have any faith in Parcelforce or whoever not throwing it around and the buyer recieving a useless amp.

Guest Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 If i wasn't in the process of buying Peds old V4 Combo i would snap this up, can't win them all Any chance of a review Chris? they look like the ultimate home practice amp. I still might get one as i might struggle keeping the volume down on the trace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beedster Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 Several PMs (apologies for not replying to each) but, as it's says above, I can't post this. Something that emerged from my recent experience of being sold a dud amp on here was the almost universal agreement among BCers that the seller should be responsble for the safe delivery of the amp/bass/whatever. Having seen the likes of Parcelforce and DHL do some quite horrible throwing around of boxes despite - or because of - the large FRAGILE stickers on them, I'm no longer going to send anything fragile by courier unless well protected (i.e., in a flight case), largely because if it got broken and you wanted a your money back, I would no doubt already have spent the cash on another bass Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUMP![/quote] Yes, 500 miles was a little extreme even for a bargain Martin. Given that I divide my time equally between Surrey, Milton Keynes and Canterbury, someone must want this. It's had about 20 hours playing max and it's half list price. It'll go on ebay for £25 more Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazingly, and perhaps because the drivers etc could see that it was clearly fragile, it got to me in one piece. Similar scenario to when we flew out to Spain with mountain bikes and the night before we left I realised my bike box was at work and I had to simply put my bike unprotected on the plane. Mine was fine but three of the other guys' bikes were damaged despite being in heavy duty cases marked 'Fragile'. Perhaps it's not a lack of care but a simple inability to read? Anyway, back to the real world, this combo is going on ebay tonight if no-one here wants it Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
