On hold: Greenboy Crazy 8 bass cab. - *SOLD* £265 Cardiff

[Marc S]

For Sale only (No Trades).

These are pretty rare these days, and are no longer being made. Ultra compact & portable Crazy 8 bass cab. I'll check and get an accurate weight later, but it's really light.
8ohm 200W (though I'm sure I read somewhere the cab can actually handle 300W - Tricky Audio can be contacted to confirm). No cover......

This version is the one without tweeter. (I think they only made a few like this). I did contact Tricky a while back, as I was thinking of adding a tweeter - I was told this is not a problem, and they can either do it for you, or send you the components.

I used this cab on quite a few gigs, paired with various other cabs. I also used it on its' own, for smallish Cafe / bar and acoustic gigs, and it always sounded great - particularly with upright bass. In fact I have always been really pleased with the surprising amount of lower end frequencies in such a small cab - it really rocks! Recently, I used it paired with my Epifani UL 110 in an outdoor gig, and it coped superbly. (a 1x10" + 1x8" rig sounds like it shouldn't work outdoors - but it did, admirably)

The cab is in good condition, though the front grille could possibly do with a re-spray. I'm only selling as I've been changing my rig lately, and have bought other gear - so I should move something on......

I would much prefer collection or a meet-up, but if I can find a box I might consider postage, if buyer arranges their own courier

Have I overpriced this great little cab? Hard to say, as they don't come up very often. 
I advertised it at what I think I can recall paying for it.... anyhow, it's now £250

[BassBod]

Would buy this, only thing stopping me is a pretty much complete lack of decent paying gigs!  Price is fine, gig economy isn’t 😳

[Marc S]

Thanks for letting me know your thoughts @BassBod.

When you put something up for sale, if no one gets in touch, you wonder about asking price.

 

I had several gigs in a short space of time - now it's much quieter. Fingers crossed that it picks up... For so many of us.

Marc, that's a very sensible price for such an all-round competent, high-quality cab. 

 

Given how great these things are for DB, I hope you've listed it there too?

 

[Marc S]

Hi @Happy Jack

Thanks for your thoughts. 

actually, I haven't listed it in the DB section, and was beginning to wonder whether I should have listed it there instead....

I don't know if listing the same item in 2 places is allowed?

[Happy Jack]

AFAIK that's an affirmatory.

I listed in 2 places once. It did not go well. The listing police were all over me like a bad rash. It was an NS fretted Omni Bass so I thought the bass guitar and the DB forums were fair game. Do it anyway.
