Raslee Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Sold my Genz Contour combo & ext cab locally yesterday, great combo that i will miss but too bulky & heavy for me to lug around and it certainly became an overkill as the mancave amp. Anyhow with the proceeds i thought I'd best get a cheap back up amp, what with the regular wedding gigs etc, budget was around £200 ish. Nothing really grabbed my immediate attention in the For Sale section here, but then i remembered Andertons were selling some B-stock/secondhand PF500's a few weeks back for around £200...thought i'd probably missed the boat on that one but had a quick look and they only had a used PF800 for £250...always had a penchant for Ampeg and remembered the 'snooze & loose' theory. And the rest is history It'll be good to compare it with my Markbass LMT800...specially for NAD. £250...i can live with that...just hope it's reliable given the notorious PF history [url="http://www.andertons.co.uk/bass-amp-heads/pid39689/cid685/used-ampeg-pf800-bass-head-0001.asp"]http://www.andertons.co.uk/bass-amp-heads/pid39689/cid685/used-ampeg-pf800-bass-head-0001.asp[/url] Quote
JapanAxe Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Good score! No bad history on the PF800 that I know of. Quote
