Hi all!
Up for a very reluctant sale is my EBS cab, most of you guys will be aware of how great this stuff is so i dont have to waffle on too much!(specs 800watts at 4 ohms)

Its in great condition as i bought it new then went off cruising for ages as a result its not been used that much, since i came home ive only been doing tiny theatre pit gigs and its far too big to fit in them (theres usually about a dozen players crammed in like sardines).

The sound is amazing totally transparent with a great warm sound and punchy as hell i use it with the td 650 head and the combination is very special, great for slap, fingerstyle you name it, ive played most styles with this thing, but as i said its too big and needs to be used properly as im only tickling it.

I am open to trades particularly small neodymium cabs like accugroove tri 110 , 112, 115 , 210 or EBS neo 110, 112
let me know if your interested.

The retail on these things is approx £900 this could be yours for £350 subject to collection from Bolton lancs, i cant use this on my gigs so i wantit to go to a good home its a great cab and now at a very good price. thanks for looking-LEE

Hey up fella, how ya doing?
good luck with the ebs sale,, the last one on here went for £350.00

BTW Howards shop is now closed.
another BTW do you still have the tinted red Streamer I put you onto the last time we met in Howards?
I think the original owner Mr "Warwickhunt" on here was trying to trace its location.
All he best, Mark

Hi mark
What a coincidence i was going to call howard and ask for your no , Shame about howards shop he was never in whenever i called or if i came home and popped in.
I know what you mean about the EBS and im quite surprised the guy let it go for£350 (time was i wouldve took his arm off) but i think its worth more than that and will stand by my price. I am after an accugroove though as i have a tri 110 and its great for the theatre gigs im doing but i need another for the rock band im in. Ill send you a PM with my Email on mate, coz i think your a star and not many people know more about gear than yourself, so it would be great to stay in touch ( ive only just discovered this site i love it).
As for the Streamer another coincidence, i do still have it and i am considering selling it, as ive just found out im going to become a dad, MR warwickhunt (great name) was selling a blue version and it didnt go though a shame i thought it was lovely. So i may be in touch.
KEEP in touch mate great to hear from you, all the best-LEE

This cabs been bumped down for a quick sale, take advantage youd be mad not too

[Thunderthumbs]

Good luck with selling this mate.

I invested in a brand new Neo setup a few weeks ago, otherwise I would have been seriously interested. I'm sure there's a 2 x 12 going on here or eBay too. That'd be a nice pair to combine with a TD650 if someone was looking. Great sounding equipment.

If you're considering selling your Streamer, just to give you an idea, I sold mine a few weeks ago for £500. I let it go cheaper than I maybe should've done, but I needed to recoup my splash out on my EBS rig.

Cheers,
Pete.

Hi pete
Thanks mate, yeah its a shame as im in bolton so it wouldnt have been a pain to get to you, ive got a load of EBS stuff and im a big fan, the cab sounds fantastic but as i said im only playing theatre gigs 4 or 5 times a year at the mo and its too big (not that the cabs are big, just really small pits) and the sound is a bit too butch for some musical theatre, i do play with a rock band with some mates but only once a ,month.
Someone recently sold an ebs cab for nothing recently and i feel hes set a precedant which is a shame as mines practically brand new and im not prepared to give it away as i need the cash to buy another accugroove (im using a tri110 its great) mind you your right neo is the way forward.
As for the streamer i am thinking of selling it,its an old one but needs a trip to the bass docter as its not well im fairly new to the north west being a geordie so if you could recommend a good tech/luthier it would be really appreciated, ill keep you posted as ive loads of great gear i may be getting rid of as im about to become a dad forthe 1st time, but i'd rathwr keep it all and buy even more, ha ha.
Thanks for the message pete, stay in touch mate-LEE

Lee,

I wouldn't normally respond to this thread as what you sell a cab for is your business but I am the guy who recently sold the EBS cab. I don't want to derail your thread but you seem to be blaming me for the fact that EBS used prices aren't great.

I bought my cab off eBay second hand 12 months ago for £350.00. I tried to sell it for the same price and had no interest. I then dropped the price to £320.00 and sold it quickly. There is one on eBay now with a start price of £350.00. Anyone with half a brain who sees your advert would check eBay so I don't think I am out of order by pointing this out.

I feel that these cabs are worth a lot more and if yours is in exceptional condition you may get what you want for it and I hope you do but I certainly haven't set a precedent for giving EBS gear away.

It is a great cab and I wish you all the best with your sale because someone will be very happy with it.

Thanks

Steve

[Jebo1]

Yeah, I agree with Birdy here. I've got an EBS head and a cabinet and whilst they are great amps, they do't have the recognition and resale value of other manufacturers. Also, you can regularly find them for £600 - £650 new, and I usually set a benchmark of half the retail price for a second hand sale.

I'd give you £400 for this cab if I was up in Bolton, but getting there makes it just too expensive.

Plus you've only advertised it for a few days as well, sometimes it takes months to sell, Birdy sold his for £320 and got shot of it straight away!

It's probably worth checking them both out.

Hi steve

[bass_ferret]

Some have a funny idea of what used gear is worth. I used to help out at my local music shop as they had no bass players on the staff, until the owner put the VAT man's money up his nose. Trade price then was about 50% of retail and the difference funded the cost of the shop.

This means that I am usually happy to sell stuff for about half what I paid for it and thats why I let my Neo cabs go for what some may consider less than they were worth and allowed Steve to sell his Proline for enough to fund the deal. I dont usually move stuff on quick and I had the Neo's for a while so it did not seem unreasonable.

If people have to move stuff on quick it is the price you pay for buying the wrong gear. Sorry, thats life.
