ziggydolphinboy Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) hi all , got some things going down , may have to move this on its a 550b, it has a niosy tube/solid state button (just clicks a bit) the original owner spoke to dave funk about it and he said its nowt to worry about.no other issuses at all mint condition never run hot at all. id like to keep hold of her but may have to sell. price wise im thinking £ 650.00 0n0.they seem a bit rare i have the handle and receipt and it has the rack ears too. any thoughts? kindest regards ziggy (just wanna say again its a feeler at the moment). withdrawn as its too nice!!

pantherairsoft Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 AMAZING amps these and a real bargain at that price... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I agree..best amp I've come across in a good few years. If you can get a bad sound out of this amp, you are doing something majorly wrong cos it ain't the amp..!! IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Another advocate of these amps. re. getting a bad sound; I don't even use the EQ on this amp, all I've ever needed to do was tweak the Timbre & Enhance controls! 550w and it is unlikely to EVER run out of power. As for the 'Switch'... I think they all do that, it is even mentioned in the manual IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Never noticed the switch thing..and agree 100% about the semi 4 band..never ever have to touch it..might roll a bit off the bass control which lives at 12 o' clock most ot the time, so notched 'flat' as is everything else. Timbre and enhance do 99% of things...but hardly touch them either...and I gig with two basses..which sound pretty different for jazzes, They are active tho so have a bit of EQ onboad. Ziggy, are you nuts..?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Whatever's "going down"....don't! I'd sell everything else on your gear list first. My Thunderfunk and Epifani UL410-1 sounded fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geester Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Yep, my 'switch' is the same - a bit of a pop but it's normal..... My TB750-A is superb and wouldn't be without it..as has been said, can't get a bad sound from it and very easy to dial-in what I need via Enahnce and Timbre By the way, the Trace Elliot AH I bought from Ziggy is awesome, really loving it, top bloke to deal with so potential purchasers should have every confidence....

LukeCat Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Ziggy...whatever you do...DO NOT SELL YOUR THUNDEFUNK......I've got two 550's and they are the best amps Ive ever played...just a honest and true sound that brings out the beauty in the tone your bass....
