guybrush threepwood Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) Here we have a Trace Twin Valve combo, which I bought from VTypeV4 a few months back. It's an absolute stonker of an amp, but I'm a weakling with a bad back, and it's just too heavy for me to be carting about. (It's about 30kg... Like I said, weakling!) It's a 100 watt, 15" combo, and sounds absolutely glorious. On top of that, it's in excellent condition, apart from a few marks on the top grille. Don't be put off by the modest rating; this thing is loud. Easily loud enough to use as monitoring if you're going through FOH, and with another cab it will cover pretty much any gig. In my opinion, it would cover any gig on it's own, but I don't play rock. The sale will include a Trace Elliot cover, although this has really seen better days, a speaker cable I made to connect an extra cab (this has the strange Trace XLR speaker output), and a spare pair of power valves. With his permission, I've used some of Mark's original pictures and a link to his post regarding this beauty. Looking for £290, preferably collection only - I don't have packaging for it, and it is quite heavy. Tradewise I'd be interested lightweight combos / amp & cabs. I'm based in Nottingham, but will be in Bristol early next week, and will be in East Anglia next weekend. Happy to meet halfway too, within reason.

Rick's Fine '52 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Everyone wanted one of these when they came out, fab amps, I had the 2x10 version....lovely tone. Wish I had room for another. GLWTS
Bassmachine Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Thats a really interesting amp..... If I was in UK this would be in my studio room........ But this beast if shipped will cost a lot and with a big risk to deliver it safe.... Good luck with the sale...
The Twickerman Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Great amp - I have the head version. This is a great price. Someone is going to get a bargain.
guybrush threepwood Posted February 13, 2016 Author Posted February 13, 2016 Not too far from Norwich - near Bungay. I can always travel though.

guybrush threepwood Posted February 19, 2016 Author Posted February 19, 2016 Yes indeed. I am weak though.
Twincam Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Shame this wasn't further north else it would be mine. My lass made a face when I mentioned her taking me to get it (I need to start driving again).
guybrush threepwood Posted February 19, 2016 Author Posted February 19, 2016 Whereabouts are you based? I travel a lot with work.
