I am not a big fan of compact boxes.... ...but Rumour6 has a 2x12 EBS neo thingie that is great!, so waht do I know?!?! The weeAShdown boxes don't have the space fill authority I prefer. The orig Ashdown ABM 500 cab (300w qxq5) was fantastic with the V8 and the V6. Best 1x15 since the big Trace boxes. From my stable, the Trace 1510 (1x15 + 1x10) is no bigger than a 4x10 and might do it for you as a one-box solution. That's only £300.... Or a Trace 4x10 + horn.... £275. Or if you want the end-all, how about a Trace 15+18 full flight box (face off, wheels and handles)? OMIGOD!!! Plenti-full-y ranged and snippish at £250. Lotsa thots.

May be selling the carpeted 4x12. Depends on what a couple of local guys are up to with my V6 and 2x15 cab. The 4x12 is rated at 800w, has a horn and a high frequency dial. There is a metal grill under the front grill cloth. It is superclean and flightcased, so I would expect to get £550 inc delivery. doesn't hurt so much if you factor in the "cheap as free" deal you got on the head.... But if you want a great cab just to get on with, Andy67 is offing his Ashdown 8x10 - and your amp will make that puppy sing!

Tell us the model number and the letter at the end of the serial number and we will know lead/bass, wattage and age. Describe condition in detail, alongwith any known repairs/replaced bits and we can help with a value. Ta

50w EL34 combo. I set mine up with 6550 valves to give more clean headroom and put in a Celestion powercell to be more efficient. The EQ is lower mid biased, but still sounds quite good for guitar.

Musicman through a Fender twin reverb = one of the all-time great sounds. PBass through a Hiwatt 100w and a 69 Marshall 4x12. Oh, yes! Jazz through a Burman 4000 through a Peavey 18+2x10. Grunt. Rickenbacker through a Trace V6 and the matching (4x12-size) 2x15. Chug. Pbass through a Marshall 50w and a checkerboard 1935 2x12 with 30w greenbacks. Studio cream. Any bass through a Fender Bassman 20 1x15 from the '70s. 6V6 output valves = no headroom, but smoooooth for recording. PBass and a '63 Ampeg B15N with a JBL. Motown. Gibson EB through a Sunn stack. Pappalardi....

Yep - everyone is right! The best "average" I can work with is to google up a best best shop price, then scan current ebay completed items to see what current fashion says. Then I consider paying less than ebay with the option of washing my face if I hate the thing, or charging less because that's the kind of guy I am.... The latter is probably nuts...? Fun, huh?

This should be fun.... Pricing a second hand item is always fraught with doubt and nervous indecision. Having paid shop price because you HAD TO HAVE IT! or having scooped a free ads bargain, what do you do when the old girl's gotta go or the GAS hits critical? All things being equal (not a re-routed hash job, a dropped-from-a-height cracker or a central heating neck twister - nor a raving beauty) shops around here will offer 1/3 of retail so they can sell out at 2/3 of retail and still make a bit after the inevitable tidy, set-up, restring, shop warranty (if any) and VAT. So, unless you know the piece to be a peach, it is a collectable or you owe the seller a favour, private purchase should come in somewhere under that, n'est-ce pas? And less still if you are trading in against it = seller has to wait even longer for his £s. Street price, then, is 1/2 shop price? Or less if there are any issues/mods? Or wot...?
