geordie Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Hi all, happy new year!! I have had my Trace Elliot 1215 300W Combo for about 4 years now, got it 2nd hand in Maldon (near where the old Trace factor used to be). I was just wondering any Trace experts know how to tell if its pre Gibson? And where i can take it for a Trace service? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 GM Audio is in Maldon and is a Trace Elliot authorised service centre. Gavin did a good job of replacing the power amp on Trace combo.

That will give you the manufactured date and then we can tell you Gibson era amps lost the red and green knobs for black ones and went to vinyl covering from carpet but that is not an easy way to tell as there was a big overlap.

If so, that's a Gibson era build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
