Phil Jones PJB suitcase with 4B cab. £650 absolute bargain SOLD

[loweringthetone]

[attachment=94617:front stack.JPG][attachment=94618:front top.JPG]PJB suitcase and cab in excellent condition. Present gigs only need a microcombo, so this bigger rig never gets an outing. It's been sat in my bedroom and badly underused except for a bit of personal practice. No buyers in April so Ive decided to let it go bargain basement if cash and collected



For those who dont know Phil Jones gear, it is superbly built, very high end, and expensive. As well as looking classy, this rig is versatile, portable and articulate :

- The two cabs fit easily in the boot/back of a car.
- The amp has two independent channels, each with its own separate graphic EQ. This means you can set up two basses on stage, adjusting each to taste before the gig. Useful if you need both fretted and fretless basses, or a passive and or a 4 and a 5-string. You dont have to use this feature though, it sounds pretty good with just one bass.
- Suitcase combo is in pristine condition, the 4B cab has a couple of small marks. Theres a cover for the amp.
- This rig gives me the clearest sound I have ever heard from a bass amp . I've used many amps in my time (GK, Eden, Markbass, Orange etc.) but the clarity from this is phenomenal. Id keep it, if I had the space and my good lady didnt keep asking me when its going....

Heres some propaganda from the PJB site and some pics

[i]This has to be one of the highest spec ranges of amps on the market; I can readily see why this is regarded as a connoisseur’s amp. It’s bomb-proof in construction, has uniquely pure sound that will transform the sound of any bass put through it, and it provides everything the gigging player will want in terms of quality, reliability and sound. Totally silent and pure in operation, the no compromise hi-fi approach really works beautifully. For what it offers, the price is simply unbeatable (there’s a lot of higher priced amps that cannot match the suitcase for performance) and once you’ve tried one you will never look back.

Hi there. Nice gear! Can you tell me...

1. Still available?
2. Power rating?
3. Interested in any Trace Elliot gear for trade? I have an early 90s pre-Gibson collection of TE gear in great condition. An AH200 Series 6 GP12 (very loud), two 1153 15" slimline cabs at 300W each, one 2103x slimline cab (2x10 plus 2x5), also 300W. Oh, and a dual SMX compressor pedal.

Cheers,

BB

Would you split?

Hi BB

1. Yes, still available, no firm takers as yet.
2. 300w I believe but Phil Jones (yes he himself) told me he's very conservative about power ratings. Personally I've heard this rig combination with a 7 piece band, brass section, full kit drummer, full PA etc - it was loud and as clear as a bell.
3. Love the idea...... if only i were younger, but Im downsizing rather than upsizing Im afraid.

Thanks

The whole thing is a bonzer rig together, but I guess if I had firm sales on both items......

Ah, I know the feeling. I can't fault the sound of my Trace gear but it's getting to be a serious pain to lug around. Regrettably I don't have the money to buy your rig without the trade, as much as I'd like to. Thanks for the reply, and let me know if you change your mind.

All the best,

BB

This is a serious bargain. I've just sold an identical rig, I'm delivering it tomorrow and I had tears in my eyes playing it for the last time!

I wish I could afford to keep it.

[loweringthetone]

Bump for a classy rig (in my humble opinion).

[loweringthetone]

It'll be off to the Bay soon so I can catch the Christmas rush

[loweringthetone]

It'll be off to the bay.....well not just yet as I've had several offers of trades.
A nice bass would be tempting, but cash would secure it.

[loweringthetone]

ON HOLD

[ianboddy]

Is this still available ?
Cheers, Ian

[loweringthetone]

Still on hold pending a trade over Christmas.

[Tripehound]

Is this still for sale? Suspect I live very near to you and off in a couple of weeks to try out a whole range of stuff including a new suitcase in Foulds....

Fantastic! Thank you for reminding us that manufacturers blurb IS all just sales speak. A lovely rig, though...

[tredders]

Have you still got this, or did it get traded?

[loweringthetone]

Apologies . It's gone. Title amended
