    These are bullet proof, so popular with practice rooms. On the one hand, practice room owners are always cashless. On the other hand, they buy new Ashdown stuff and it always gets trashed/fries from hours of diming. Worth a phone/email around with a clear price?

    4x12, no?

    Got one, too. Great, they are. Quite cab friendly, I put it through a JCM800 15+2x10. Or a pair of 1984 model 4x12s with 80w drivers. Or a JCM800 2x15 with Sidewinders, All good, Indeed.

    Chu did the deed. Good comms and a friend with a car. Used a real box and everything!

    I think Orkney needs the Mk4 AH250 and 810 cab. Mind you, the whales that will come to bask in the LF might beach at low tide...?!?!?

    'Only' 400w. Old Trace watts. Jeez. That's...um...loud...
  10. Thornybank
    Petersons are great. Old design still going strong.

    The powered cab is a dedicated top cab. The Scorpion drivers do not do bass, really. But when you put it on a TNT, a Combo 115 or Combo 300, it adds another dimension. Also works as backup monitor. You can get practice sounds with a preamp straight in. Also works as a passive guitar cab.

    Got the same setup - and many,many more Trace rigs... ...and many non-Trace... ...and combos... ...and... Just sayin' how great this rig is!

    How great are these! £250 would be fair for the head alone...

    Clean ones. Guitar player note: put your Mesa V-Twin in front as the preamp 1x12 cab behind it and there ya go! Screaming gainey gigfest!

    Anyone with a Fender bass deserves a go through this. That said, the front end is v forgiving = happy with an active summat. Demos easily arranged (as long as you come to me).

    [quote name='Sunburst79' post='1193484' date='Apr 9 2011, 03:54 AM']Hello. First post. I have a working 1996 Rumble Bass Stack (head and 2 410 HF cabs). I had a bit of an issue with crackling and the volume going up and down. Checked the tubes which were original and fine. Reseated the multi pin amp to chassis connector a few times. The Amp worked for about a day and then the noises came back. I decided that the next logical step before taking it to the shop was to clean and lube the pots - although none of the pots were actually scratchy. Which I did. I also tapped and probed all of the caps and resisters with the unit while running and none of them were particularly microphonic or intermittent. These units seemed to be designed to be field serviced and for whatever reason Fender used 148 "Fast-On" Connectors! (Spade terminal connectors) to connect various sub assembly's to the main circuit board. While the unit was apart I made point of going through and rocking each connector to ensure it was making good contact. A bad connection here is going to act exactly like a cold solder joint. Its worth taking your amp apart and checking these connectors. My amp has been flawless since July of 2010 After doing this. Normal precautions about working on high power amps apply. It worked for me and hopefully helps someone. I've never played through a vintage Blue Line SVT but this thing has noticeably better tone then my mid nineties SVT CL 810HE.[/quote] Nice to see another. I have the same tan/oxblood with one HF and one LF 410.

    My tech sorted my Rumble. Some obvious ''need' tweaks in the design. Packing and courier cost figures, but he is tippie top and only charges for true work time.

    Their best design ever. Large soundstage, articulate, dynamic etc etc. 100w into 8ohms 200w into 4ohms 300w into 2ohms As new. Under 20 hours use ever - my old man bought it for an 80th birthday present to himself and never bothered. Rumour6 testnoodled with it, though, so we can confirm 0 issues. Carry bag 'n such.... Only £550 delivered. Pics not uploading, so google it and have a look. Can e some if you PM an address.

    Well, here we go... This little thing is a bridge with tuning adjuster that converts your Fenderescent 4-str to a 5-str. You will need to change the nut. I bought it on a whim back in the '80s. Paid £30, so it owes me £75 with inflation. £30 back would outperform my endowment from the same period.....

    Wish I lived near. Very efficient cab. Tonal, yet fresh delivery. 'stremely versatile. Convenient size. Bargain +++
  25. Thornybank
    Beefy, rich tone and simple to get a good sound. Plenty for most things. Worth a ton easily.
