Hi all. Have a pair of US built Ampeg BSE410HLF´s no longer needed. They are both in perfect condition and I do mean perfect! If I had room, I would definately keep them, but unfortunately, that´s not an option, since the rehearsal room and studio now has a Marshall VBA400 full stack and Ampeg SVT 4PRO & 610HLF Solid Ampeg USA (not Asian-made, LOUD Tech) construction. These are the REAL Deal! Silver, tough metal grilles and heavy duty carpet covering-less prone to damage than the SVT Classic series cabinets. Incredible response in both higher and lower bass frequencies-true crystal clarity! Great with 5 and 6 string basses too-can easily handle Low B and High C. These cabs are long since discontinued and highly sought after. They are also more portable than an Ampeg 8x10 : [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=89982"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=89982[/url] Impedance: 4 ohms Crossover frequency: 4kHz Frequency response: 50Hz-18kHz Horn: Switchable 400W RMS, 800W program power handling Sensitivity: 99dB 22-3/4"W x 25-3/4"H x 17-1/2"D 91 lbs. More info on spec can be got from Ampeg´s discontinued products page at Ampeg.com: [url="http://www.ampeg.com/discontinued.php"]http://www.ampeg.com/discontinued.php[/url] Please note these are the SE versions which are not listed but share the exact same spec as the BSE410hlf cab-these are cosmetically different (grilles and ports) than the black cabs shown on the spec sheet supplied online. [u][b]I am based in Ireland but will ship at cost.[/b][/u] Price is [s][b]315[/b] [/s] [b]275 [/b] per cab plus delivery. If someone wants to take both, then perhaps a deal can be worked out. [u][b]Update:[/b][/u] I have a flightcase for one and a padded cover (worth 50 quid) for the other I will genuinely be sad to see these go. will upload pics this afternoon " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> NOW SOLD -
[quote name='AndyTravis' post='854613' date='Jun 2 2010, 10:59 AM']Bruce is a really great bloke, there seems to be a new breed of at Fender GBI - Now they seem to be a helpful team of people, rather than moody sods. Anyhow. I'll be getting these ordered the second i get a price. Or, i'll pick up a used Jap one and start modding the crap out of it. Trav[/quote] Met most of the team that time and they did seem really nice. My local rep said he´d dealt with some right so&so´s at Fender in his time, but the new lot seemesd fine. Anyways, everyone there was very friendly and it did seem a really great place to work. gutted I missed out in the end. oh well...

Im´ in! Definately got to have one now!!! That was the fastest reply I´ve ever gotten from Fender- including when I was going for my job interview with them!
-
justa heads up, but the duncan basslines are a factory fit-they are standard on these models. -
Great, now I want the acoustic aswell! Many thanks for the link. Cleared things up for me no end. Now to play the waiting game...

Some of us Fenderphiles will go to any lengths... Could you post the link though

[quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='854029' date='Jun 1 2010, 07:50 PM']I thought the Jaguar had been discontinued from the Fender range? If this is the case, it could move to the Squier range, but more likely than not this is probably someone's wishful thinking.[/quote] No, it is still being offered AFAIK. Though there only seems to be Oly White and Burst finishes listed anywhere onlne. Havent seen a red one new for sale in a long time But yeah, a Squier with stack knobs and a nicer neck than the Fender- I knew the VM series were good, but I find this a little suss...

Been searching for ages now. Cant find anything anywhere. My guess is this looks too good to be true (fender would never allow this, would they?!) ...

[quote name='cheddatom' post='853256' date='Jun 1 2010, 08:54 AM']I'm not sure if your effects look cosy or smothered!! Good idea though.[/quote] They are definately snug as a bug. Foam was cut to shape and has a removable block of foam above each pedal allowing easy removal/replacement. [quote name='The Twickerman' post='853276' date='Jun 1 2010, 09:09 AM']It's certainly an original approach - and seems quite sensible too.[/quote] Thanks, Just something my tech and I were messing with. It´s the envy of every guitarist who´s seen it so far Bassically, it was cheaper than a big Diago or something similar. All it cost was specal glue and a few cheap stanley blades. [quote name='burno70' post='853992' date='Jun 1 2010, 07:22 PM']A little gravestone over the Zombie Snot would look awesome![/quote] I am already working on it! The Zombie Snot is just an LPB-1 with a few mods-in and out. Amazing little pedal!

[quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='853970' date='Jun 1 2010, 07:07 PM']There's no discussion about this, I am going to buy it now.[/quote] From where?!

Holy hell! I want it now! Where did you find this?

Opinions on Fender Jap 70RI Precision or MIA Standard Precision
basshead56 replied to Linus27's topic in Bass Guitars
Having owned the cij 70´sR (oly white), I can safely say: you will not be disappointed! Amazing basses. Only sold mine cause I got a 78 Precision in the same finish. Havent a clue what I´d go for out of the two though... -
Really wanted an Ampeg 8x10, but lack of roadies and not being the biggest chap in the world meant two 410´s Went with two Ampeg BSE410HLF´s. Cracking USA-made 4x10 cabs! and the beauty of them is that they are 4 ohms each, meaning that they combine two a 2ohm load-getting the most out of SVT series amps and most valve amps I´ve come across. 8x10s are typically 4ohm and leave little room in a van for a second cab. They are infinately more portable than an 8x10 too and have those cool silver grilles and SVT PRO logos. Only problem is I got a 610HLF yesterday, so now they are taking up space ...

What are the top 5 (or 10) basses you've owned?
basshead56 replied to OutToPlayJazz's topic in Bass Guitars
Top 5 I´ve owned/still own: 1) 78 Fender Precision, siennaburst 2) Fender Mark Hoppus sig bass, shell pnk 3) 97 Fender American Precison Deluxe trans met red 4) EB MM SUB- gone now 5) Fender Geddy Lee- gone now -
This is a great thread. I have spent so much time buying and trading amps and basses over the years, but have now realised that the sound I seem to have in my head isn´t anything new or radical. Its a Precision through an Ampeg. Sometimes a Thunderbird gets in there too I have two vintage Fenders, one I use to record with and a the other beaten up one, like Clarky´s Sid bass (its an Oly white 78), as my main live bass now. I sometimes take out the Deluxe P aswell, but truth be told, they´re the cases I tend to grab most. I tend to trade more than buy so I dont spend a ton on finding new stuff, but in the last few weeks I´ve gotten rid of some truly great stuff-just didn´t match what I had in my head (Phil Jones Briefcase, Ampeg B500DR) and will probably shed a few other bits (have some Ampeg and Trace Elliot cabs now redundant) As of yesterday, I finished my quest for my dream amp- SVT 4 PRO into 610HLF. As far as amps go, I reckon thats me sorted to be honest (though I am on the lookout for an Ampeg combo for rehearsals) In terms of basses, I think may trade one or two of the current lot (maybe for a new Am Std Precision) but I´m pretty much done chasing basses too. It´s great to feel GAS free!
