My amp just turned up.

[waynepunkdude]

But i can't use because my cab is at my drummers house

[Merton]

what did you get in the end?

[waynepunkdude]

Trace rack mount GP7 280W (580W Peak) it looks lovely but i can't plug it in

[Merton]

Yummy! One of the ones without compression? If so the best GP7 head they did along with the Series 6 IMHO.

Enjoy

[waynepunkdude]

Thats the one

Cheers

Not a very good pic but it gives you the idea.

[stingrayfan]

Nice...

You got some sort of light coming out of the underneath of your tuner?

[Jean-Luc Pickguard]

Nice - I used to have a trace combo with one like that in. It was lovely but too damn heavy.

Yeah it has a rack light on the bottom it's gonna look awesome on stage.

[waynepunkdude]

I just tried it out.

Damn it's powerful and the EQ is very sensitive it is going to take me a while to get it right.

[Machines]

Why can't you plug it in ?!

[waynepunkdude]

I can now it's with my cab.

I don't like turning on amps that don't have a load on them.

[Sarah5string]

Oooooooooooooh pretty lights..

[waynepunkdude]

I know I love the way it lights up the Trace like it's saying "look what I have"

[ianrunci]

That looks exactly like the amp in My Trace Combo. It has given me an idea. I could take it out of the cab and rack it instead of selling it, I never thought of that, then I would have two rack amps just case one goes down. Good thinkin Batman

[ianrunci]

Has that trace got seprate rack ears on it or are they part of the front panel?

[waynepunkdude]

You can get the ears separately, not sure how in cased the unit will be inside the combo but if you can pull it off it would be kick ass.

If you do it will you be selling the speaker cab from the combo?

[ianrunci]

It does slide out. You just remove the four bolts from the top.

Although looking at it I am wondering whether it might be too wide.

As you can see below It has vents at the ends so the panel looks longer than yours, I will have to measure it.

The Speaker chasis isn't the original. I replaced it about 6 months ago with a 300 watt Mackenzie. Ive bought an Ashdown off the market place on here. Its in a 6 unit rack & I'm picking it up on sat morning. If I can put my trace in with it along with a tuner and a 31 band graphic I will be over the moon

I'm practicing tomorrow so i will measure it up for you so you can compare.

[ianrunci]

nah its too wide, 24 inches in fact Oh well I think I will just swap it for a cab and use the ashdown

[waynepunkdude]

Oh well it was a good idea
