  1. Did you say trades? Hmmm... ..fer wot kinda thing/s?
  2. [quote name='Stylee' post='685395' date='Dec 15 2009, 04:43 PM']Have you a 1153 for sale?[/quote] Yes - two Series 6/black rexine = good ones. One shallow format, one deep format. Means splitting the AH200 + 1153 + 1203X stack, though.... And a green carpet one.
  3. [quote name='stingrayfan' post='685077' date='Dec 15 2009, 12:42 PM']Wins the prize for the strangest 'For Sale' ad. How about putting a pic and a price of the stuff you want to sell? [/quote] 7 heads and 15 cabs and 5 combos and 5 flight cases - I can't set all that up for photos at once. Prices depend on what you want. As stated, tell me specific wants and you get a specific reply. Already swapped a head and sent out 4 priced replies. How about saying what you are looking to buy? Easy. OK - let's try a list: Heads MkIV AH150 - gone Mk2 AH250 MkV AH250 MkV AH350X Mk 2 AH500 MkV AH500 Series 6 AH200 - gone Cabs Mk2 410 200w MkV 410 200w MkV 410 800w Ser 6 410H 300w Mk2 1518 200w MkV 1518 200w Ser 6 1518 300w Ser 6 1153 200w shallow format - gone Ser 6 1153 200w deep format Ser 6 2103X 2x10 + 2x5 Green carpet 1503 V series 2x15 500w Mk112+15+18 4ohm Mk1 15+18 4ohm MkV 18+10 Ser 6 15+10 Combos Mk2 150w 1x15 Mk2 150w 1x15 Mk2 300w 410 Ser 6 200w 2x10 + 2x5 valve pre Ser 6 GP12SMX 250w 4x10H I think that's it.... Biggest money piece(s) is the Mk2 AH500 and 410 and 15 stack in black painted wood. Flight cases are Tarce, but newer than the gear. Taken me 15 years to pull that together.... Whew!
  4. Sure.... Great top cab 300w 410H £325 Powerhouse bottom cab 800w 410 £350 Clean and ready. Both Series 6-ish era. Carriage is gonna be £30 overnight insured. Take the pair and I'll deliver fer nowt. £350 can also/instead get you a 15+10 same size as a 410. If you like a full, bright sound - that is the very dab! Also to be considered is a tidy AH250 GP12SMX 410H combo @ £500 delivered. Gives the valve pre and dual compression option, and no worse a lift than a 4x10 cab. JIC it appeals....
  5. Nowt to do with me... ...but if you are looking. Here is a Mk IV head that may well be a HUGE bargain... [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Trace-Elliot-GP11-Bass-Amp_W0QQitemZ300376252858QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_MusicalInstr_Amplifiers_RL?hash=item45efd1e1ba"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Trace-Elliot-GP11-Ba...=item45efd1e1ba[/url] Clears kinda nowish, though....
  6. It is a model 1225V. [attachment=38325:trace_1225v.jpg] It is £450. A Series 6 AH200 non-valve head in good nick is a solid £250 worth and a 2103X cab is £250+ if you can find one.
  7. [quote name='parker_muse' post='684341' date='Dec 14 2009, 07:18 PM']Have you a 4 ohm cab under 200?[/quote] Only 4ohm cab is the 15+18 for £300. I don't have a 4ohm 15 to sub for the stock 8ohms, either. Sorry.
  8. [quote name='fatgoogle' post='684193' date='Dec 14 2009, 05:10 PM']Got anything in the way of a 12" or 15" combo around 150 watts for the 150.[/quote] Nope, sorry. I don't have any of the post-Gibson commando-type cheapies.
  9. [quote name='maddude16' post='684180' date='Dec 14 2009, 05:00 PM']pics, prices :S ?[/quote] Tell me what you want and a budget....
  10. [quote name='Paul S' post='684141' date='Dec 14 2009, 04:29 PM']Thanks but I think they would all be even heavier than something that is already too heavy![/quote] Nae doot aboot tha'. At least the 15+18 is a face-off cased tilt back wheeler...
  11. [quote name='allighatt0r' post='684088' date='Dec 14 2009, 03:31 PM']4x10 cab / 4 or 8 ohms / >400W handling / cheap as chips? ....please? [/quote] Eminence 100w drivers are £40 a pop, so cheap as chips is kinda hard for anything I could warrant as worthy. I can do you an empty 4x10 cab for you to auto-fill....
  12. 300w is the best I can do for a loaded 1x15.
  13. [quote name='maddude16' post='683514' date='Dec 13 2009, 11:02 PM']hey what are the prices of heads?[/quote] [b][i]Not[/i][/b] the question I was wanting.... .. but let me know output, features and budget and I will tell you what I can do.
  14. The 250SM is 250 into 4ohm, and about 175w into 8ohm, same as the AH250. But it was an SM = Sound Management = dual compressor. That pre circuit sucks presence a bit, so your AH250SM would be output equiv to an AH200. The older AH250 has a larger power transformer to deliver more thump per watt than the later stuff, so is output equiv to an AH300SM. In case anybody cares....
  15. I can do a clean and happy single 32ohm 10"Celestion for £45 incl. payapal and next day courier. ...or £40 cash notes in advance. Duzzit help?
  16. [quote name='zephead' post='683413' date='Dec 13 2009, 09:17 PM']..................................errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I don't suppose you have any spare rare as rocking horse sh*t 32 ohm 10" bass speakers have you???? Mike[/quote] I'll check. apoo... on ebay often sells them - or used to. I have a GP12SMX 410 combo that came to me with with only three in it - can't remember if I pulled them out or put one in.
  17. [quote name='bobbass4k' post='683390' date='Dec 13 2009, 09:01 PM']What have you got by way of a head, at least 250w into 8ohms, pricewise under £300? Cheers[/quote] Hmmm... 250w into 8ohms. They never did that that I know of. But please remember, these are 'old watts' amps. An old AH150 4x10 combo is enough for most theatre gigs with no PA support. Under £300 I can do a Series 2 AH250 - black painted wood finish, military green livery with the tone that set them on the map. Has some broken slider ends - they get soooo brittle - form carrying facing my leg when I got bumped. And no UV. But the graphic works perfectly. As does the rest of it. It has that smooooth sub thing that distracts you from teh fact that you are pinned to the wall with your face peeling back. At £300 + carr I can do a nice MarkV AH250 with the black light working. If you can find anyone near you who has a pre-Series 6 AH250 (not an SMX) give it a spin with your cabs and see if it is enuff..... ...which it will be....!
  18. You are in luck! The only 18-ish ones I have are: An 18+10 (see last summer's famous everlasting thread for the flightcased one for £200 that I didn't buy only becasue I have this one - but now I have an AH350 which is designed to biamp one or a brace of 'em and I am kicking myself, except that where is it legal to even sound check the things?) A 12+15+18 full flight Mark 1? Mark2? silly huge thing that completely does bass beyond bass. A 15+18 which is the partner to the 12+15+18 (he had two?!?!?! what for????) with teh 12" section off it (but still full flight and face off and handle and wheels and all that) so that a single human can shift it. Sorreee....
  19. How to put this? I have - ahem - too much Trace kit. I love it all and I have a good sized room, but I just added it all up and really, there is no excuse for a holding of this magnitude and I am not a John Henry or Matt Snowball. All great stuff - none of the Gibson era or later downgraded components and build quality. Just the models that made their name. Mk1 to Series 6. Combos from 150w to 300w and heads from 150w to 500w. About every cab configuration except 2x10, from 200w to 800w. But I do have a 200w 2x10+2x5 combo with a valve preamp ... Nothing under £150, but nothing over-the-top, either. All tech checked and working fine. Now... I am not wanting a 'kids in a sweetie shop' free-for-all 'wanna see some pics!' time waste, so please ask 'do you have a ...' rather than 'pics of everything, please!' Give us a preference for format and a budget and I'll come back with a list of kit to suit. You can then go on line and check the specs and reviews and all that. If something takes your fancy within your price range, we'll talk them through and I will do pics of the real contenders. Your chance to get 'that sound', from a home set-up to a stadium blasting super-rig. Or maybe kit out a studio or some practice rooms? Some flight cases, too. Heads Mk2 AH250 MkV AH250 MkV AH350X Mk 2 AH500 MkV AH500 Series 6 AH200 Cabs Mk2 410 200w MkV 410 200w MkV 410 800w Ser 6 410H 300w Mk2 1518 200w MkV 1518 200w Ser 6 1518 300w Ser 6 1153 200w shallow format Ser 6 1153 200w deep format Ser 6 2103X 2x10 + 2x5 Green carpet 1503 V series 2x15 500w Mk112+15+18 4ohm Mk1 15+18 4ohm MkV 18+10 Ser 6 15+10 Combos Mk2 150w 1x15 Mk2 150w 1x15 Mk2 300w 410 Ser 6 200w 2x10 + 2x5 valve pre Ser 6 GP12SMX 250w 4x10H I think that's it....
  20. Sweet. Thanks for the info. 'Tis the Gummo offer. Kind of thing to enjoy, then pass on and pull £20.
  21. Gibson for dark. But a Tbird? Hmmm... Very much depends which version. A long scale EB-3 lets you give some treble lift to that hot mudbucker or an EB-1 = £3k well spent to get the Pappalardi ass-kick Always wanted to put my spare mudbucker on a P-copy. Why you would throw the sound away on an SVT rig, though, beats me. 8 x 10" drivers don't go 'down there'... My old trace 12+15+18, however, is only two strong chaps and a van away from a roped off demolition zone powerhouse tonality with most any input.... Cheap, too, 'cos it needs two strong chaps and a van....
  22. I've had a few 'real ones', lots of EBs and an anniversary over the years. The best old ones had chunky bodies and clubby necks - wouldn't sell on 'feel' these days. Anything in the last 20 years has had fast/kiln dried brittle wood for bodies and necks. Not necessaroily straight or open grain - all would have been rejected previously. High gloss neck finishes were the thing back when, and IMHO beat the matte/stain-o-matic finsih paws down. If the new ones have 'real' pots and 'real' wiring and 'real' wood and gloss necks - mebbe worth the dosh v. a 'real one'. Certainly, the anniversary models were not up to much - I'm not big on cute body capping - a layer of adhesive adn a mismatch of wood grain/resonances to dampen the woody tonality... I don't reckon an accountant woudl let them get even close to the old values - and most people picking up a '76/7 would wonder WTF was up at the (pre-slim, pre-flat) time. But that's me....
  23. Before I *** up and overspend on a fancy... ...any idea the model of this Roadstar ll series Ibanez jazz? it's the one on the left o'course... [attachment=37857:ibanez_jazz.jpg] Any comments on this model? Any obvious bits missing (eg should it have a scratchplate?) I have been casting around old catalogues and google images to no avail. Thanks for your help!
