New Amp Day - Trace Elliot BLX130 Combo and matching cab

[bawjohnson]

Picked up the combo a few weeks back and happened upon the cab a few days ago having given up hope of ever finding the matching set - love, love, love this thing! punchy TE sound in spades, plus it glows under UV 👽 1994 vintage

Those amps are insanely powerful, sound great, congrats

Very cool and I bet it sounds incredible ... but makes me think of chiropractor, lol

You're going to have to play some thin notes to get them through that narrow slat!!

 

I saw one of those combos in a music store here in Toronto many years ago. I always thought that it looked a bit odd. Enjoy your new toy.

The BLX130 is the one amp I regret selling and I sold it because,,,, I could not find the extension cabinet.

Sounds good with a passive bass à la P-Bass, way too nasal for other basses and never try a fretless with it : all the cats will leave the neighbourhood.

 

I had 3 or 4 over the years, including a brand new one when it was released, but always ended up selling them because of that nasal tone, and the weight too, especially nowadays.

I sold mine (eventually) via this forum, during one of the lockdowns, for a lot less than the £404 I paid for it in 1994.

Though it never failed to provide sufficient volume I definitely don't regret selling it; the weight was far too much.

Congratulations. Brilliant amps, wonderful sound, way more power than you imagine it should have.

They sounded awesome back in the day and they still sound awesome now
