Hartke LH500 plus 2x HyDrive112 £630 North Kent

[steve-bbb]

FOR SALE (preferrably as one big lump  )

 

Head Lump consists of

4U rack case

LH500

dbx160a

korg pitchblack

 

all in good working order - this rig has been regularly gigged up until 18 months-ish ago and ive now decided to have a wee rest break from gigging - no cracks in the case and all 4 clasps fully working and tight and secure

the LH500 has been modded by a decent local techy chap (tutt-technology.co.uk to give him a plug) - because the pitchblack and the compressor both have rear outputs i thought it would be a neater solution to mod the head to have inputs at the back as well as front (which you can see in one of the pics) - keeps the cabling nice and tidy to the rear - the blank jack plug which you see in the front input is a blank plug which is used to switch off the front input if you choose to use the rear - the rear mod matches the front with both passive and active inputs - also modded on the rear of the LH500 is two speakon sockets have been added as i prefer these to jacks - mr tutt also replaced a couple of the pots which were getting a bit noisy

 

also with the rack case is a 5 gang rack mount multiblock (with two spare in its current config)

 

the cabs are both standard hartke fare extremely reliable - not as much mid punch as the 410 cab but surprisingly powerful and with a much better low end than the 410 - there is a small mod to both these cabs - the four screws on the rear plate and the corresponding four screws internally have had washers with spring washers added - one of them decided to vibrate loose a while back and was causing noise and managed to track it down to loose vibrating screws - since the mod the noise issue has completely going, the cabs are in good condition with only one small chunk in the tolex which have tried to show in photo and a few superficial marks - you can see in the pics the condition of the corner protectors that these cabs have not been thrown around

 

the cabs are both easy weight to carry but the head and case is heavier that the cabs but still quite managable  - tech blurb on the cabs can be found here http://www.samsontech.com/hartke/products/cabinets/hydrive-hd-cabinets/hd112/

 

have had plenty of compliments on this cab and head, overall it is very clean and non-coloured tone, FOH guys particularly like the dbx160a as it prevents any unwanted booms and surprises going through the desk

 

ideally would like to sell the rig complete but more than happy to split the two cabs and the head case - but would prefer not to splitting the head components apart for sale have tried that before and never works out imho

 

based in medway towns, serious interest welcome to come and try with your bass, am prepared to drive up to about hour from medway towns (as it guarantees quick delivery and is cheaper and safer than courier!

 

for both cabs only am asking £360

for head/comp/tuner/rackcase am asking £370

for the complete rig £600
