    [quote name='Sparky Mark' timestamp='1507189514' post='3383749'] Not sure that 3 tubes constitutes an amplifier? Should probably be listed in the other stuff for sale forum. [/quote] My bad.

    New old stock from Karltone. Cost me £9.85 each, I'd like to sell all three as a job lot for £22. The JJ ECC83s (12AX7) is a high gain preamp double triode valve. Thanks to its design it performs with very low noise and microphonics. Harmonically rich with a detailed low end and a warm high end. Premium Tested on specialised digital and analogue testing equipment by Karltone as follows Gain (A) Transconductance (gm) Noise (dbv) Microphonics Emission Quality Grid Leakage Shorts Test results are provided on the box

    Once again, I have assembled a pedal board only to decide I don't really do pedal boards, so now the cabling is the last thing I have left to sell Here we have a total of 87cm (2.8ft) or Monorail cable and seven jack plugs. The made up leads are 15, 8 and 6 cm long (that's the cable length between the jacks) and also 28, 21 and 9 cm lengths of unused cable. I paid £50 for all of this. Yours for £40 posted Recorded Delivery. Thanks Gareth

    Very nice. I have the combo version of this head (Caron K1 Combo) and it's superb. The headroom is just insane. Great rig, shame you have to sell. Whoever buys this won't be disappointed.

    Hmm, minefield. I'd go LaBella or GHS personally, depends if you like high tension or not.

    Flats are a no brainer, and they last ages, so it's a win-win in this situation

    [quote name='ambient' timestamp='1506631529' post='3380110'] ACS are pretty good. [/quote] Agree 100%, they really are just like turning everything down.

    [quote name='M@23' timestamp='1506356726' post='3378191'] Sorry, having reread my post, it was badly worded! I meant the combination of Ninja head and 2x12 Ninja cab... just seen that they do a little combo too![/quote] Ah right, thought I’d missed a combo there! That should sound immense. The Ninja head is the same pre and power amp unit as the new Caron combo I own, apart from no VLE on the Caron.

    [quote name='M@23' timestamp='1506337625' post='3377976'] Thinking the Ninja combo would be a good all round function band setup, 20kg, small footprint and the option to expand being 8ohm. With the amp still pushing 600w at 8ohm too. [/quote] I thought the Ninja was a 250 watt combo with an extension cab? Is there a higher powered version as well?

    [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1506332748' post='3377904'] Can't comment on Octave pedals but I exclusively play 5 Stringers and can report no issues. [/quote] Same, and my two cabs have the same 12" drivers as in the Ninja cab. They take all the power from the head without issue.

    All the MB kit that appears in my signature is made in Indonesia. Quality seems absolutely fine to me.

    Tecamp, now Eich, offer their 1x12 and 1x15 compact cabs in 4 ohm versions.

    This is the best deal on BC right now.
  15. franzbassist
    It doesn't matter. If they fit the pot shafts you're adding them to they can be used for volume, pan, eq, whatever.... It all depends on how your pots are configured.

    [quote name='dodge_bass' timestamp='1505345180' post='3371285'] Any trades at all? [/quote] Possibly, though unlikely tbh. What have you got?

    Bump

    I've tried loads of different bags over the years, but both my basses now live in Mono Vertigo bags and I don't think that will change

    He's been on BC for a long time, but as I couldn't find a feedback thread for Mike I've decided to start one. Just sold an amp to Mike. A super smooth deal with prompt payment and excellent comms all through the process. Very happy to recommend him

    I'm not sure the tuner out would give you enough signal to drive a power amp. You'd probably be better off using the XLR.
  21. franzbassist
    Yes, that's the GP12XV, which was the front end of a rack preamp, three valve heads, and the 1225V combo in the early 90s. I don't remember seeing them in a straight 2x10 combo though: the 1225V had offset 10" and two 5" drivers.

    Thanks Raslee, that's useful

    Bump for a price drop to £140 posted

    [quote name='Raslee' timestamp='1505077360' post='3369364'] Just bought one of these and I'm really impressed - great core tone and a lot of tonal variation with the EQ, nice warmth - very powerful too. I payed £340 for mine from Andertons but some retailers have had them up for over £700. [/quote] Some complaints that that these are quite modest in overall volume, given the high wattage, and that the fan's noisy? Would you agree?
