Need to raise funds, BUT I would trade this for a Streamliner 600.

So, this one is 900 watts at 4 ohms, 500 watts at 8 ohms.

Not perfect cosmetically, but very good. Some scratching on the paintwork.
I've not had the "blue lamp issue" on this amp.
Gorgeous amp but too 'big' for me.

£330 collected from Wigan, £355 insured UK couriered.

Any trial in Wigan,
thanks for looking,
cheers,
Karl.

Only a couple of pm's, still for sale.

Bizarrely, there was (were?) 6 wanting to buy the Shuttle and I think this one is by far the nicer of the two to use :blink:

But what do I know :P

Have you got another hankering Karl? :D

Me Dunc? How very dare you. :P Looking to get a Streamliner 600 as the 900 is a bit too much for my cabs (alkthough The Bass Whisperer doesn't agree).

What's the blue light issue with these amps?
[/quote]

Ian, as soon as you turn them on, the Volume Police get their blue lights on :lol:

Seriously though, in the last picture, post #1, you can see the pre amp valves glowing blue. It's not actually the pre amp valves, it's some blue LED's.
It's for show, gimmicky.

Quite a few Streamliner owners have had these lights stop working, or they work intermittently.
Old (or Dark ?) horse on Talkbass knows all the ins/outs as he was one of GB engineers.

I've had STR 600 AND 900 and I've not had it happen to me.
A friend of mine called David Brosnan (from Leeds) has just replaced all 3 LED's at a cost of under £20. Problem solved.
Some owners prefer them without the LED's anyway.

I had a chap from Huddersfield want to trade his 600 for my 900. His blue lights promptly failed and I've not heard from him since :(

I'm never really sure what folk quite mean by drive/overdrive/break up Dunc.
Mainly because I always like 2 main tones, John Paul Jones circa Zepp 11, and Steve Harris, well, most albums really.

All further PM's replied, many thanks.

Regarding trade for a Streamliner 600.

I should have stated a trade that was relatively local meet up, as I am offering an initially more expensive item.
Put another way, It's very cheap and I don't want it to actually cost me more.

Blue Lights.

Hey Karl,

Thought I'd give you the heads-up on the LEDS on that Streamliner - I got a set from AgedHorse and had them professionally fitted. Apparently the original build batch of LEDs turned out to be unreliable, hence why AgedHorse will supply them to anyone who asks. Plus he's just an all-round Good Guy. Bottom line is I don't expect the LEDs on that Streamliner to fail. Thought I'd let you let folk know...
Cheers,
Muzz
