stevebasshead Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) Over the last 5 years I've been through various preamps but have finally come full circle and settled on an all valve head (Marshall Superbass, I'd have saved a small fortune, not to mention a lot of GAS, if I'd bought this first!!) So, the following are now all up for sale: [b]Ampeg SVP-Pro:[/b] Grey hammerite version, fitted with 2 ElectroHarmonix, 2 Groove Tubes, and an Edicron in the drive position. Great condition and every bit as lovely sounding as you'd expect. Full disclosure here, the mute and pad buttons will sometimes make a pop sound when activated, but since I mute with my pedal tuner anyway this was never an issue so I never felt the need to investigate it further. Everything else is 100% [b]£250 incl p+p[/b] ** SOLD ** [b]Peavey TG Raxx:[/b] Great condition, amazingly versatile EQ. Original Peavey valves and it sounds great, the clean sound is clear but warm (if you get me). The T[b]G[/b][i][/i] Raxx is the guitar version of the T[b]B[/b][i][/i] Raxx but apart from the control labels it's identical to the bass bersion internally. [b]£110 incl. p+p[/b] **SOLD** [b]Marshall MGP9004:[/b] Strictly speaking this is a guitar preamp but it works just fine with bass, although dub or reggae players may not agree!! So yes, don't expect the earthquake lows but everything else is there. It's got two channels, the clean channel is passive EQ'd, the driven channel is active (but if you set the gain low it'll do clean too. No valves here, it's all solid state, but at this price what do you expect? [b]£45 incl p+p[/b] ** SOLD ** Any questions just ask Steve.

I think it's a 'feature' rather than an issue. Great sounding preamp, I use it with 1kW of solid-state power amp and it sounds better than an SVT. And I can carry it all on my own :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Foxen Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 See, the Ampeg and the Peavey, into a stereo power amp as a guitar and bass rig engine, would be immense. Did something similar, tempted to go there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beedster Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 ...or the Marshall if the Peavey's gone Steve. I need a pre to run the treble of my Ric through my Strategy alongside the Aggy, as well as the odd gig on Strat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
