Had a band rehearsal tonight before our first gig this Friday
Went along to 309 studios in leeds and used a big trace Elliot combo they had set up for us

Wow it was awesome. For an old beat up amp it sounded great, great tone and loads of power.
It was big old thing 4 x 10 speakers with a graphic equaliser, really want one now
Except for......
This thing weighed a ton!
I go to the gym and our drummer can bench press 300+ lbs and even he struggled to pick it up on is own!

I agree, they sound great. They can be bought for a couple of hundred quid these days, but technology has moved on. Could you really be bothered with the hard work of moving the thing around?

True enough the thing was heavy. Just googled the amp and it was a gp12 amp

I have a tc electronic bg250 and that thing is a real lightweight compared to the trace Elliot

Need to have a strong roadie :)

Had one for about 20 years - loved the sound, hated the weight. Believe it was around 50kg.

Moving across to an RH450 head and GenzBenz NEOX-212T cab cost me a pretty penny, but my back thanks me every time I gig. As do the bandmates who no longer get roped in to help carry the TE beast.
