I might try and get DrPepperUK back and see if he can post some of his amps. I believe he's still got a hexavalve...[/quote]

One day Kiwi, one day ill have that amp!

I used to have a GP12SMX preamp and I've still got one of the dual comp pedals, can I join in too?
I used to love that preamp. I sometimes wonder quite why I got rid of it actually.

[foal30]

someone got a bargain yesterday.
Trade Me (New Zealand's ebay) T-Bass 5 string for $850
I think that is roughly 330 pounds.

Nice to see some Trace-love going on here. If I can nick my Girlfriend's camera, I'll get some shots of my AH350SMX up on here. No Trace cab though - I don't think my back could take it...

Need to get a better pic but meh.

*ahem*


Didn't really work well as a stereo rig but at least it looked the part.

That could be the most 80's looking thing I have ever seen.

[eude]

I'm totally GASing for a Twin Valve Head at the moment, but you don't see them around very often!
Anyone know if anyone makes anything similar these days?

It was a bit short of features for use as a preamp and (when new) a bit expensive for an 11 band graphic eq. (programmable or not). I would have liked to see a crossover, stereo effects loop and a compressor on board as well at least.

The other problem with this rig was that the volume controls for the Boogie power amp were around the back and so if the sound man happened to bump the FOH level up during the gig, the only way I could compensate with my monitoring was by increasing the gain of the MP-11 which would eventually distort.

Ah well, we live and learn. I sold the MP-11 to GremlinAndy.
