tredders Posted November 3, 2010 Posted November 3, 2010 (edited) Hi all I bought this about a month ago from PMT in Brum, and whilst it's exactly what I thought it would be (i.e. proper Ampeg sounds in a small and light package), it's not what I need right now after all. It's ridiculously light, but very rich & warm sounding, and (I'm told, and have read on BassChat) will happily handle smaller gigs. Or larger ones if you add a second cab It's been used in my home practise room only, and has never left the house. Goes without saying it's absolutely in the same condition as when it left the shop a month ago, and I have the boxes and sealed instruction books. Oh, and the receipt. It's 200W @ 4 ohms, 150W @ 8 ohms, has an input for iPod / other music player, and a useful headphone jack. A few pics: - [attachment=63088:Ampeg_1.jpg] [attachment=63089:Ampeg_2.jpg] [attachment=63090:Ampeg_3.jpg] Couple of reviews here: - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ9SR2xxM_A"]Nice Youtube review[/url] [url="http://www.ampeg.com/products/classic/microvr/"]Official Ampeg product page (with specs etc)[/url] [url="http://www.musiciansfriend.com/document?doc_id=105367"]Musician's Friend review[/url] Cost me £449, which seems to be the going rate online, too. Rather than faff around and start at £400, to be haggled down, I'm asking for a firm £375, plus collection (from j.12 M40) or meet up (I travel a fair bit with work). I don't want to lose a fortune on this (£75 in 4 weeks is enough for me!), so will keep it if I don't get what I'm after. You're welcome to organise a courier (or I will at cost) - I've still got the boxes and packing materials for the amp & cab. Things I'd trade for: - 4 string Variax bass 4 string acoustic bass Something valvey (like the VBA400 currently for sale) All original '62 Precision, with original case, hang tags & strings. I might add a tenner or two towards this. Or, try me with what you've got. Any questions, just ask. Cheers Tredders Edited November 18, 2010 by tredders

I bought another one after getting yours (the stack sounded great with 2 cabs!), but a mate of mine is having your old one
tredders Posted November 5, 2010 Author Posted November 5, 2010 Bump - Just added the pics I forgot to put on the sale thread initially!

tredders Posted November 6, 2010 Author Posted November 6, 2010 Had a couple of interesting trade offers on this, which I'm seriously looking at now. However, I do need the money at the moment, so if someone does offer the asking price.....

[/quote] Spent too much on fireworks eh? Lovely little rig this, has real Ampeg warmth and an all round lovely tone.
