JapanAxe Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 You would probably get even more off if you pointed out that the speakers are the wrong way round. You need the 15 on the bottom and the 10s on the top for the, err, top. Apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big rob Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 Would not surprise me if it has gone, however it was still up tonight. Someone could get a hell of a rig for a reasonable price there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevB Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 That's my local store actually. I might give it a look over if still there on Sat. Wooly? My Trace combo has a great tone and crisp as a newly printed tenner. I have it sat on top of my 2x10 SWR ext cab. Makes naff all difference to the overall tone, just meansI have the knobs at a sensible height and its more stable as the SWR cab is deeper than the combo. I just don't need any more backline at the moment. If they split them up I might be interested in the 1x15 as I could then try 2 15's as an alternative to 1 x 15 + 2 x10's.

spacey Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Looks expensive to me. Must be end of life period for such an old amp as well. My £699 would be going on a new amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't tell from the poor quality photos in OP, looked like black tolex type covering but could be green carpet I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimR Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I had the GP7 based 15" combo for years. It did start sounding a bit wooly but I opened it up and found one of the resistors had developed a dry joint. I resoldered it and it sounded brand new. The only reason I sold it was it's weight and I needed something I could carry up and downstairs without demolishing the banisters and tearing the wallpaper. I think it's overpriced though. I think £300 for the amp and 15" and maybe £150 for the 2x10". Tops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevB Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) Agree it looked very optimistically priced. I bought my 1X15 combo and a 4x10 extension cabinet for £400 for the pair. I had to retire the 4x10 as my back was giving me some grief. It's still in my shed, if anyone wants to make me an offer and come pick it up... My combo lives in the cupvoard under the stairs between gigs so I don't have to carry it upstairs. Only done 2 gigs in last 2 years that meant carrying it up to a higher floor than I parked on, I noticed it! Not exactly like for like, and it's not a final price, but compare with this one; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Trace-Elliot-Bass-Rig/141448239561?_trksid=p2046732.c100040.m2060&_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140107095009%26meid%3Da16051808ab24b6da073bab177b0b009%26pid%3D100040%26prg%3D20140107095009%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D141451513483#ht_234wt_1190 Edited October 30, 2014 by KevB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
