Oldfartback Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Missed out on a TC electronic combo which went for not much less than new....BG250 208 is top of my list right now... I'm after a more mid biased mid tone... Any goodies seen of late? new/used/demo etc Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Top of my list would probably be one of the new Fender Rumbles. They are cheap, loud and very light. I'm sure you could get a 500 watt one for £350 secondhand. I played through the 100 watt version and it kept up with a drumkit pretty well. I'm sure there are many satisfied Rumble owners on Basschat, who will agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Easy - EBS HD350, my main gigging amp, wonderful bit of kit; if it broke or was stolen I'd get another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I'd browse the classifieds on here. Lots of bargains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krispn Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Hartke sale on PMT that was posted somewhere on this thread £199 for a LH500 head. - head and cab for about £350. Worth a look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a look [/quote] Op mentioned he wanted a mid-type sound so I don't think this would work for him. Although I loved mine, and that would be a great set-up for 350 cabbage.

I don't gig so can't comment whether it would keep up with rest of band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Is it a combo you're after, or just an amp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Mid-biased does indicate TC gear, or maybe Markbass with - I can`t remember which one - one of the filters turned up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) I found the Fender Rumble 500 combo untameably middy for my liking (I like the scooped Trace Elliot preshape!) so that probably fits the bill ok.
