SOLD: Markbass Ground Stereo Pre - 2 channel stereo floor preamp £200 Hampshire

[franzbassist]

The Alain Caron signature model stereo preamp takes the form of a foot pedal and offers an array of inputs and outputs, including a stereo effects loop, stereo balanced DI outputs, Aux in, and Headphone output.

You can take the preamp on or off stage: you can use the unit's headphone output for private practicing, or you can connect an iPod or MP3 player to the Aux input for learning recorded music or playing with backing tracks.

Although it can be used mono, the Ground Stereo Pre was designed to be used in stereo with two power amps/powered cabinets and stereo effects.

The preamp features separate Gain, 4-band EQ, and Mute switches for each channel; Master Level control; Effects Loop Bypass; stereo pairs of input jacks, outputs jacks, and XLR line outs; Stereo Send / Return for external effects; a Mono / Stereo switch; ground lifts; Pre / Post EQ and Pre / Post master switches for the line outs; and Tuner out, Aux in, and Headphone output.

Markbass Ground Stereo Pre specs:

Channels: Left / Right
Gain Control Range (L / R): -60 - 23 dB
Inputs: 2x 1/4" jacks (L / R)
Impedance / Maximum Voltage: 500 Kohm / 4 Vpp
Outputs: 2x 1/4" (L / R) Speaker Outs, 2x XLR (L / R) Line Out, Tuner Out
EQ (for each channel): Low, Mid Low, Mid High, High
Switches: Mute L / Mute R, FX Loop Bypass, Line Out, GND Lift
Power Supply: 12 VDC 200 mA

This pedal is in good, used condition: there are some very light scuffs to the metal and the ink has worn off the knobs to some extent, but the only real damage is a bend on one corner (pictured).

Now discontinued, these were over £500 when released, which may explain why they are so rare.  I am firm on £200 posted in the UK.  I will include a UK power adapter.
