    This is the full width head which overhangs my small cabs, hence the sale. It's a brilliant head with very flexible EQ. I've got a MAG 600 narrow width which is why this is for sale for only £100 ono. That's only 33.33p per watt of Brit rock power!!!
    Collection from Harlow, Essex. Cheers, Mark.

    Trace Elliot Gain issues

    I think Trace heads were designed to be clean sounding and the valve is intended to give warmth. I was never able to drive the valve to break up. Plus I have a Warwick with active MEC jazz pups and their output is the same as passives until you add bass and treble from the onboard preamp. Actives are not always that hot.

    Which Head with hartke hydrive 410????

    I would strongly recommend not to get the 1x15, but add a second 4x10.
    Not only is it no ideal to mix speaker sizes, but the Hydrive 1x15 just isn't the greatest of cabs. The 4x10 is a much better cab and goes a lot louder than the 1x15. It would be a much better rig to go for two of the 4x10's.

    If Sparky Mark is redaing this then he'll agree with me as he used to have the full Hydrive rig and also wish'd he'd gone for two of the 1x15's.

    Cheers Sam,

    I had the LH1000, but could never get on with the passive tone stack controls. I also had the HX410 and Hx115 cabs and would recommend 2 of the 410s for a monster rig. One of the 410s could handle a loud gig on its own whereas the 115 couldn't. I personally prefer the greater tonal flexibility of the HA Hartke heads, but if you like the LH tone it could be a winner. Sold my LH and still have my old 3500. I would recommend you try a Markbass LM2 or LM3, they are great heads and drive the HX410s a treat.
