Another happy buyer here 😁 Bought a large, old, heavy but oh so perfectly formed MkIV Trace Elliot AH250 from Loz. A wonderful piece of kit/bass history and possibly most silent running amp I’ve ever owned. Not bad for 30 + years old. Great communication throughout and a highly recommended BCer. Trade with confidence. Many thanks again

Can you imagine the weight of that beast? Back to the combo discussion, I used to switch between head/cab and combo. My SMX head and (various) cabs or a 1215 SMX combo when I needed a quick switch. Oodles of power but alas, carrying up and down stairs could be a bit of sweat, especially with the 2x10 models.

That’ll be me having to offload a Spector 😟 Here’s my PM4 😁

Very nice. Almost an exact sister for my PM4

Bass ➡️ Zoom B3 ➡️ Trace Head ➡️ Berg cab There are a couple of tunes that require specific effects. 95% of the time I play clean, just using the tuner on the B3.

Welcome Rewi 😁

Welcome to the fold 😁

Honesty’s the best policy after all 😂

That’s fantastic 😂😂😂😂

Welcome 😁

Welcome to the best place online 😁

Here you go ....

I understand the level control to be for when you want (or don’t want) a different volume level when switching between the graphic and a preshape. I don’t hugely boost or cut the graphic, so just leave the level on full and the output volume remains the same on graphic or pre. I could of course be completely wrong........

And for my current graphic image ..............

This is the way to go. I’ve used various TE heads with lightweight cabs from Bf (Super 12, Super Twin, Big Baby II, Conpacts). However, to retain some aural elements of older cabs (to my ears anyway) the Bergantino NV115 takes some beating. With my 250 SMX it just sounds exactly how I want it to sound I.e. not too ‘hi-fi’ but with clarity and great on stage dispersion of sound. Loving it 😁

That footswitch is for the later Peavey era heads

One of these. Just switches the graphic and preshapes on and off. I don’t think it switches between preshapes iirc but I may be wrong 🤔
