[/quote] No worries. In the spirit of Bonhomie, I have to say that I'm very interested in this piece, although with my La Cab build in progress, I just can't justify another Bass. Saying that, with your Bass in mind I was checking out Danelectro's in Wunjo on Denmark St. today. No Longhorns, but I had a shot on a Hodad Bass and was mightily impressed with the tone and playability.

[u][b]FOR SALE[/b][/u] One 4ohm 400watt Matamp 212 custom built cab in black basket weave tolex with white piping and salt n' pepper grille cloth. Loaded with Celestion BL12-200-X drivers. [u][b]SPECS[/b][/u] 4ohm 400watt and loaded with these bad-boys.. [url="http://celestion.com/product/39/bl12200x/"]http://celestion.com...ct/39/bl12200x/[/url] 73cm high, 55cm wide, 37cm deep 29Kg The cab is not ported, but not technically sealed/infinite baffle due to the removable rear panel. Jack connection, but Matamp can send Speakon if required. [u][b]PICS[/b][/u] ​ [u][b]SPIEL[/b][/u] I had two of these cabs custom built for me along with my GT200. I have to be honest and say at the time I was suffering from a 'I want a proper valve amp with two cab rig' mid-life crisis. So I eventually had the head and cabs delivered which stood 5'10" in my living room! Whilst full-filling my boyhood fantasies (well, one anyway) I have never utilised the rig with both cabs, and one of them is as good as unused, and has stayed un-touched in my lock-up. Absolutely great sounding, but I only need one, so I'm letting one go, and you will get the unused cab. (TBH both cabs are immaculate). Essentially you will be getting a brand new cab. It is beautifully crafted by Jeff Lewis at Matamp, very old school in style and sound with the Ferrite Celestion drivers. The drivers are not standard for the 212 and were custom fitted for an up-charge. As was the grille cloth which is a cotton two strand weave not horrible skinny nylon (like you'd get on a costlier Hiwatt cab). Cheers!

[quote name='Bassilla' timestamp='1348744845' post='1817588'] That's for me to know,and you to wonder. [/quote] Fair enough, Squire. Now I'm wondering if this is a duff technique to get someone reaching for their wallet thinking time is running out. Like Ebay, or some such nonsense. I guess we'll never know. Anyway, good luck with the sale.

I don't understand why you're only giving this a week? I mean, why bother?

[quote name='sshorepunk' timestamp='1348732796' post='1817371'] For £1500 I'll throw in a free, Matamp GT200!! [/quote] Are you being serious? If you are, that's an excellent deal. I should know, I've got a GT200 and Matamp cabs.

[quote name='debwilliams' timestamp='1348608476' post='1816041'] Was just thinking about the unforgettable thread where that comment appeared .... wonder what happened to that pleasant chap? [/quote] No doubt making huge profit somewhere!

Shut up, Wooks!

Please could you post up the weight and cab dimensions, and which Celestions are inside? Thanks

Is the price posted?

Do you have any specs for this? What is the scale length and nut width? How does it balance with the strap button being so far back and in the middle of the neck?
