onehappybunny Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 (edited) [font="Arial Black"]EDIT[/font] - this has been for sale for a while and after pairing it with the power amp I bought recently off Ed / Elliotminor, have realised how damn impressive and flexible it is as a pre-amp. On reflection the pre-amp section is stunning, but it lacks a little on the power side (not as loud as you'd expect for 500w - especially if you put it into cabs 4 ohms+) Thanks for not biting my arm off as it's enabled me to take another look at this great amp and find a way to make it work really well for me. Cheers, Stu <be>Yamaha BBT500h head</be> Very flexible class D modelling amp with wide range of tones. Good punchy sound and puts out the full 500W through the two 4ohm 2x10 cabs. If you want to change settings mid-song you can switch from different models via a midi footpedal (not included) [attachment=392:DSC_5420.jpg] [attachment=393:DSC_5422.jpg] It's all in excellent condition - bedroom use, plus four small charity gigs (we're not good enough to play for cash!). Reason for sale is that I fancy a change of bass rig (damn GAS!). I have bought and sold other stuff (as 'stubass') on the old BW, so don't be put off by the newbie rating. Would prefer collection from near Guildford, Surrey (for a cup of tea and chance to try the stuff out) or alternatively just add postage at cost price. Any questions, just p.m. me Cheers Stu Edited July 21, 2007 by onehappybunny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassJase Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I paid £500 for mine about 18months ago, and don't regret one penny. These are by far the most versatile amp i've played through by a country mile, and this is easily worth £200 for the compression alone. Have a free bump, and if you ever decide to flog those cabs PLEASE let me have first refusal...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also amazed at lack of interest at this price... if it wasn't for my wife's one-in-one-out policy I'd be tempted to keep it as a back up (b.t.w. will let you know if I ever decide to flog the cabs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onehappybunny Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 Amazingly this amp is still for sale I'd rather not head off to t'bay but unfortunately it's looking that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MythSte Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Id haste to bet its down to the fact that most people will only own 4ohms worth of cabs. Which is a crying shame as ive heard great things about these little fellas! Anyway, its an excuse to get more cabs, so what are you all waiting for?! aha.

I have used the significant time this amp has been for sale to find a way to make it work for me and I've realised that it's a blooming brillant pre-amp I reckon it would be a little underpowered paired with one 4 ohm cab unless you are just playing small jazz style venues. Paired with a power amp it's excellent (see amended first posting) Cheers Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
