Deedee Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 This looks fantastic. Pity I don’t have a forklift 😟 https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F273636742333 Quote
TheGreek Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 A lot of rig there...would have been £2k+ new...as you suggest, it's going to be heavy. Quote
Deedee Posted January 6, 2019 Author Posted January 6, 2019 Interesting that both the head and the cabs appear to have been remounted into the new casing. Only one skin between the head and top cab, only one between the top and bottom cab etc. Quote
Newfoundfreedom Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 Man I would love that! But it's in R R R Rotherham! Nothing's worth that trip. Quote
Roger2611 Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 I miss the classic Trace look of the UV lit front panel, it looked great, I am surprised more companies haven't done something like that Quote

TheGreek Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Half an hour to go and still £150...I drive a hatchback - couldn't collect it even if I won it. 1 Quote

I have a bad back. I couldn't collect it if I won it either. I love these old rigs though. The prices they're selling for now it's ridiculous. This would have been my dream rig when I was 16. 2 Quote
Deedee Posted January 7, 2019 Author Posted January 7, 2019 I was tempted to ask if I could just buy the head to remount in a rack case. I’m assuming any fittings/alterations would have been done already. Quote
TheGreek Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Sold!! 1 bid - £150 - steal of the year if the buyer can avoid the Chiropractor. Anybody here?? Quote
PaulWarning Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 not me either, I had a 1 x 15 trace combo that only did one gig due to the problems with getting in and out of my car, great for a rehearsal studio but not for a gigging bassist, unless you've got a gorilla for a roadie Quote

At least the 1x15 is better than the 2x10 H though. They're about 10 Kg heavier 😮 Quote
