Willl Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) [s]I[/s]'ve had this Trace Elliot gear as a backup to a backup rig in case my GK and Genz Benz gear had any problems.... so it's not had any use for 18 months and is taking up space which has to be freed up for other toys. Used regularly to gig for a while before changing direction on tone - great sound, huge sound for the Watts and for the ££. I'm based in Buckinghamshire, and can help out with transport within a sensible radius, for petrol money. I'll consider offers.

Willl Posted October 28, 2011 Author Posted October 28, 2011 Friday back from a business trip bump...
Willl Posted October 30, 2011 Author Posted October 30, 2011 Sunday night... being encouraged to 'Get them out of the house' ... Bump
Willl Posted November 14, 2011 Author Posted November 14, 2011 It's a week later... with no firm offers so now I'm wondering 1. If these aren't reasonable prices? If you like what you see let me know what you think they're worth.... 2. If Trace Elliot gear is too out of fashion to shift? 3. Or if the market is just so bad that nothing's moving?? Willl
markorbit Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 These are the later series Trace heads I believe. Does the faceplate have a backlight and lights up green?
Willl Posted November 14, 2011 Author Posted November 14, 2011 It is back-lit green yes - looks great on a dark stage. I believe this series was just prior to the SMX which signalled change over to Gibson ownership, although I'm sure there are Trace specialists here who know much better than I do. It has the dual compressor built in, which is an impressive bit of kit. I've been through several pedals before I found one near as good as this.
Willl Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 And Bump... travelling up to Manchester on Tuesday (22nd Nov) this week, so if there's a deal and delivery to be done, then this is a good time
Thornybank Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 Keep driving north - little more - llittle more - OK - now east a bit - bit more - and finally get up to Edinburgh with the 18!!!
Willl Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 LOL - Actually I should have been clearer....I'm on business on the train, so I can carry the head, but the cab would be beyond the call of duty... I'd probably have to buy an extra ticket for it
Willl Posted November 22, 2011 Author Posted November 22, 2011 Head SOLD.... 18 inch cab polished and ready to go...
AttitudeCastle Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 I want it so much, but can't cough up the funds and i'm guessing it weighs a tonne Best of luck with the sale!
Willl Posted November 26, 2011 Author Posted November 26, 2011 Thanks for the wishes. I've never weighed it but Trace Elliot aren't known for their light weight options. But the sound makes up for it once it's been fork-lifted and manoeuvered into position!!
Willl Posted November 29, 2011 Author Posted November 29, 2011 Had a play with this cab tonight and it has lovely rich sound but it has to go though to make space for the next project... Will consider trades for effects (and cash to balance either way as required), specifically interested in a Mark Bass Super Synth or an Electro Harmonix Bass Micro Synth
