jassbass Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 I would like to use the amp as a head with a seperate cab.but the head casing has no lid. Any ideas welcome Thanx jay Quote
barkin Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Isn't it a standard 19 inch 2U unit? If so, put it in a rack case/sleeve ? Quote
jassbass Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 It has no rack ears,sorry im no good at diy lol stuff.i measured it the head is 16 inch and half. Thanx jay Quote
jassbass Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 It also needs space at top of amp for the fan Quote
pdw Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Yes you can. I have a similar GK combo (Backline 210) and wanted to use the head separately also. So I just removed the head (it is only fastened with a few screws/bolts at the top) and put it in a very crude wooden case I made myself. Just 4 pieces of wood I had lying around (from a bookshelf), screwed and glued together. I did cut a circular hole in the top with a hole saw and fitted it with a grill from a computer power supply unit (http://www.techwarelabs.com/guides/misc_mod/psu_mod/FanGrill.JPG) and added a handle at the top and four rubber feet at the bottom. A few hours of work or you can ask someone with basic woodworking skills. I did not make any pictures then, but I have it still lying somewhere around so can make photographs if you like. Quote
jassbass Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 Would this fit in a 3u rack bag.the 19 inch is confusing me lol.i thought 3u to give space for the fan Quote
mrtcat Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Where are you based? If you're anywhere near me bring it over and I'll whip up a simple wooden sleeve for you. Quote
jassbass Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 Hi im in sunderland tyne and wear.probs no where near Thanx Quote
Truckstop Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 No! Don't do it!!! These are the best combos ever; a future classic for sure! Just buy a 700 or 1001 amp seperately and buy a cab to go with it and sell the combo. Truckstop Quote
jassbass Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 I have a 2x10 gk neo cab already.so that could be. An option Thanx Quote
Truckstop Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 It's a shame you're so far away; I'm looking for an RBH combo! Truckstop Quote
jassbass Posted August 23, 2014 Author Posted August 23, 2014 Any one know if theres a gig bag that I could keep the amp in when giggin,so then I could put it back in combo if I needee Thanx Quote
Truckstop Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 St. Albans. Near London! Too far and the RBH combos are pretty heavy so postage would be prohibitive. Nevermind Truckstop Quote
