  1. Wow, wow, wow and wow I shouldn't ask how heavy the 78 is, but I will....
  2. How does this compare to the Tonehammer? Is it super crisp and clean?
  3. Does it have a case? What's the weight and balance like?
  4. [quote name='Merton' timestamp='1441726718' post='2861252'] Are you getting another 100 or something else? [/quote] Just a humble CTM30 Mert, but I've always loved the Drophead and would have pushed the boat out a bit more for it!
  5. If I hadn't ordered a CTM from Ashdown a few weeks back I would have bought this when it first appeared
  6. I bought a speaker lead from John. He emailed me a picture to check it was what I wanted (it was) and it arrived the day after I paid for it. Excellent
  7. I've always wanted one of these, but sadly I have no spare cash at the moment How wide is the head, as a matter of interest?
  8. [quote name='Oldman' timestamp='1439912381' post='2846704'] I used the 15PL and the Mini 8 +L at the last gig. Tolex covered as opposed to an Epoxy paint. Light with bite! [/quote] That's a very stealthy looking rig Brian!
  9. The TKS cabs have been a revelation to me. No need to be concerned about the lack of tweeter as there's plenty of top end there.
  10. I sold some strings to Mike. A pleasure to deal with all through the process.

    GILLY

    I bought Will's Tonehammer 500 and the transaction was as smooth as a flatwound string. Great comms, A1 packaging - perfect. Deal with confidence.
  12. I sold an amp to John. He was a pleasure to deal with and I would happily transact with him again.
  13. Indonesia now, final assembly still in the US though.
  14. I have a number of vintage valves for sale. They are all in working order as I have used them on a regular basis. Serial numbers/dates will follow. [b]Mullard CV4004/M8137 £75.00[/b] The daddy. It’s been my go to preamp valve. This is an MOD version of the M8137, which itself was a “special quality” version of the EC883/12AX7. It has both standard Mullard and MOD markings on it. Original box. Used. Looks like this (not my image) [b]GE ECC83/12AX7 £24.00[/b] A JAN (Joint Army Navy) “ruggedized” version of the General Electric 12AX7, specially made for the US military. Used. [b]GE ECC81/12AT7 [/b] [b]£14.00[/b] Again, JAN (Joint Army Navy) “ruggedized” version of the General Electric 12AT7, specially made for the US military. Original box. NOS. Collection from NE Hampshire. Happy to discount if you buy more than one. Happy to post, with prices confirmed according to number of valves bought. All items will be sent Recorded Delivery. Thanks for looking. Gareth
  15. Relieved no hardcore aging was involved
  16. WITHDRAWN
  17. [quote name='dmccombe7' timestamp='1437512327' post='2826744'] Not having the original boxes or good enough packaging i'd be too worried they might get damaged as they are in virtualy new condition. I was hoping that a buyer could be found locally who could pick them up or meet me within reason. I think you might be a bit too far for that though. [/quote] Hi Dave No worries at all, I totally understand. GLWTS. Gareth
  18. Yep, if you could post them I'd have them...
  19. And hello from Alton
  20. [quote name='sk8' timestamp='1437466626' post='2826140'] The power module in the TH500 is the same as some manufactured claimed 900 watts on heads. [/quote] So, the quoted 250 watts may be somewhat conservative?
  21. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1437384049' post='2825392'] If you're after the Jamerson sound, then it's hard to beat the LaBella FLs. Feel is obviously a very personal thing, but I love the feel of the LaBellas too. The main drawback is that they are so damned expensive. A very reasonable substitute (at a much more reasonable price) is the strings that Lakland used to market as 'Jo Osborne' flats. Lakland still make the strings, but I can't remember offhand what they're now called. [/quote] Agreed re. La Bellas, and I believe the Lakland strings are simply GHS Precision Flats in a different packet.
