I've used the Drome for rehearsals recently and it's been doing a stirling job, however its maiden voyage as a keys/vocal monitor at a gig has highlighted a potential issue. It was a particularly hot pub and although the first set passed without a hitch, during our longer than average break the Drome went into protection mode. After some research I've discovered that the design of the combo allows the movement of the speaker during use to provide cooling to the electronics. Hence it's absolutely fine in use, but when left for extended periods of time it enters protection mode and cannot be used until it's cooled down. With this in mind, I'm reducing the combo to £200.

Beyerdynamic Blueprint A150 *sold*

I bought this a while ago to use in conjunction with my various preamps for home rehearsal/recording. It is excellent for this purpose as it is absolutely silent. Amp cooling fans are hugely irritating in my book, and this solves that problem by utilising a heat sink instead. Lovely. It offers 2x150w, low weight (despite utilising a proper toroidal power supply, no switch-mode malarkey here) convenient 1u size and it sounds great. What you put in is what you get out. I've actually used this live for a gig with my BF cab and it is surprisingly loud... Do we really need 1.21 gigawatts of power? Sold

The Mark Acoustic AC101 is a twin channel 250w amplifier designed to reproduce the sound of acoustic instruments as faithfully as possible. That said, I've been using it to great effect as a keyboard amp, vocal monitor and for acoustic gigs with my '71 P bass. It is ridiculously compact and light and yet still manages to reproduce a full, thick sound that really needs to be heard to be appreciated. Here's a link for more info: [url="http://www.markbass.it/product_detail.php?id=73"]http://www.markbass....etail.php?id=73[/url] I'd like £350 collected from Margate, or I can post at cost.

I've recently completed a trade with Seve. He's a top man to deal with, and as honest as they come. Thanks mate.

Due to lack of space I'm selling my 150W EBS Drome combo. This is the original Swedish built model, not the newer stripped-down Chinese affair. It's an excellent combo that manages to combine great tone, build quality and features within a very compact package that only weighs 17kg. I'm after £200 I'm located in Margate.

BagEnd 1000W Minima One Poweramp *SOLD*

BagEnd 1000W Minima One Poweramp *SOLD*

I recently purchased the BagEnd Minima One here, as I'm stickler for a project. Here's the link to the original listing: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/259870-sold-bagend-minima-one-1000w-3kg-poweramp-l200/ As you'll notice, the seller greatly reduced the price due to a ''sli[font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]ght low level hiss / intermittent static crackle noise, not always noticeable and probably not at all at moderate to high volume''. When I received the amp, I took it straight to work and handed it to one of our electrical engineers who proceeded to give the amp a once over. He cleaned all the electrical connections using switch cleaner, and fitted a Speakon socket that I had purchased in order to enable convenient connection to a cab. I then sourced a suitable aluminium box and modified it to allow the Minima One power amp to be bolted to a frame inside, and the control panel fixed to the front. [/color][/font] [font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]A great feature of this amp is that it's possible to change its output power with a set of internal jumpers. I assume this is because BagEnd use it in there high end PA cabs as well as there bass cab line. The settings are marked A, B, C and D. A = 500W, B 750W, C = 1000W and D is a custom setting. The amp is currently set at C, naturally, but can be changed back in a flash if your cabs can't handle it. [/color][/font] I took the Minima one along to a rehearsal, and in conjunction with my Sadowsky, Aguilar preamp and Barefaced cab, it sounded great. Punchy and full with effortless headroom, and no trace of the 'low level hiss'. I've since used it on two gigs with he same setup, one with a function band and one with a rock band. With minor eq tweaks, I was able to achieve a great tone on both gigs and even received a complement on my tone from the guitarist on the rock gig, and I'm sure we all know how often that happens To summarise, it's a great poweramp built in the USA by one of the best names in the business. It's versatile, extremely powerful and in a rather tasteful aluminium box p.s, no mods were made to the amp in order to secure it to the box, so it can be removed and used for other applications if required. I'd like to keep the amp, but an incoming 'project' forces me to free up some space/project money. I'm after £275 for the amp, collection from Margate or can post if required.

Ampeg SVP Pro, Matrix GT-800FX, Boschma Rack *SOLD*

[quote name='Funkatron' timestamp='1433952871' post='2795407'] How much would you want for the SVP pre amp and your spider 3U rack case? not interested in the power amp, thanks! [/quote] After some thought, I'd be after £250 for the Ampeg in the Spider rack case, and £300 for the Matrix in the original packaging. -
Ampeg SVP Pro, Matrix GT-800FX, Boschma Rack *SOLD*
jay-syncro replied to jay-syncro's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
[quote name='bigjohn' timestamp='1433862137' post='2794639'] I did the same thing for ages. Though I know have an Alembic FX-1 in my rack, using the SVP Pro through the fx loop, in to a Barefaced Compact (used to have a Big One). So very similar rigs. It's the nuts. A real cure for GAS. [/quote] Sounds like an excellent rig, it's amazing what those cabs can do when driven properly. -
I'm selling my Aguilar Tone Hammer Preamp pedal as it's no longer required. It's a great, versatile preamp that can complement/replace the front end of your amp to achieve that Aguilar sound, or even drive a power amp directly. It also acts as a great tool for recording (via an interface) into digital recording software. I'm after £125 including an 18v power supply.

I'm selling this amp and a few other items to raise funds for the money pit that is my house. I've put this rig together to make the ultimate amp for my Barefaced Big Baby 2 (also for sale). The Ampeg SVP contains 5 valves that provide the classic grit and warmth of the SVT, without the need for a forklift to move it. Combined with the awesome Matrix power amp, you have a huge amount of versatility in terms of cab options etc. for example you can run up to 4 8ohm cabs, or bridge the amp for 800w into and 8ohm load, as I have been doing with the BB2. It is an excellent combination that sounds great, looks great, and only weighs around 10kg in the new Boschma 2u rack. I'd let it go for £550 in a 3U Spider flight case as I wouldn't mind keeping hold of the Boschma. Collection from Margate preferred, but will post at cost.
