FS Phil Jones rig: M500 + 6T + 9B SOLD PENDING THE USUAL
£700


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I'm selling this rig ludicrously cheap because I bought it ludicrously cheap and because the 9B cab took a slight knock on delivery that I've yet to sort. The knock is on the underside and doesn't impact on tone or function, although I now use the cabs on an acoustic platform as opposed to the wheels as due to the knock the wheels didn't sit quite right. A quote for repair was £50, I just haven't got around to getting it done. Having said this, for most gigs I simply use the head and the 6T, the whole rig in anything but a very large room or in avery loud band would be overkill. It is a very powerful unit, and surprisingly good for both DB and electric.

Reason for selling, I've got two big, heavy rigs. This rig isn't an SVT and a fridge for sure, but all the same it takes us quite a lot of room on stage (the speakers are pretty deep), and each unit - even the head - requires a trip to the car, which is fine for big gigs, but for big gigs I prefer my Ampeg anyway.

So, I've ordered something smaller and this lovely rig is up for grabs at a price that's about 1/3 of what it would cost new. Collection from Canterbury, Kent, or possibly Aberystwyth (Wales) by prior agreement and prior payment. I may split as I would quite like to keep the 9B cab.

On a dark stage it looks something like this....

And contrary to popular opinion, the rig can get up and down stairs with relatively little effort

Chris, any chance you could put this on hold for me until tonight please? I think I want it but am busy today and wont get a chance to dwell on it until later!

Thanks for holding for me Chris, I'd love to buy this but I'm going to have to resist for now - PM'd

Back to the top, someone buy it, its a mentally good bit of kit for very little cash

Whenever I'm happy with my gear, things like this happen! Just gone lightweight with the Promethean P5110 and matching 1x10 cab and I'm thinking how do I get this considerably heavier and bulkier setup!

I've had a few questions re splitting, so I guess fair prices would be £475 for the head and £150 for each of the cabs (I'd rather sell the whole lot in one go hence the low price for the rig). Trade-wise I'm not really looking for anything at present, but asking can't hurt
