joegarcia Posted May 26, 2009 Posted May 26, 2009 (edited) This is the newer model with four KT88's which fixed the biasing issue the older one apparently had. The preamp valves have been upgraded to EHX Cryo ones. Sounds amazing, versatile and fat. Really sturdily built and surprisingly light for a valve amp of this pedigree. [attachment=25990:yba200_2.jpg] Proper pics to come soon. Features: 200 watt All-Tube Bass Amplifier 4x KT88 power tubes, 2x 12AX7A and 1x 12AU7 preamp tubes 3-band Master EQ with Range Control Innovative Scoop and Resonance Controls 1/4-inch Tuner Output with System Mute Switch Switchable Pre/Post XLR D.I. Out with Ground Lift & 20dB Pad 4 or 8 ohm selectable speaker outputs More details: [url="http://www.traynoramps.com/products.asp?id=399&cat=40&type=5"]http://www.traynoramps.com/products.asp?id...t=40&type=5[/url] These amps are very rare over here as hardly any are exported, this is a US model so needs a stepdown transformer to use it over here. These are easily found on Ebay or in Maplins for about £30. It's in very good condition apart from a few scuffs on the metal corners. You're most welcome to come and try it out at our rehearsal space in Bristol where you will have the choice of an Aguilar GS412 or an Ashdown ABM810 or your own cab. £460 plus Paypal, bank transfer or cheque is fine though. Would prefer collection from Bristol but postage could probably be arranged. SOLD Edited June 1, 2009 by joegarcia
The Funk Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 I'm considering this. What are you planning on using instead?

Actually, he has an eye on another valve head, with less headroom so he can drive the nuts off it without blowing up the world. It's pretty flexible and light, far more so of both than I'd expect from a valve head.
steve-soar Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Amazing, joegarcia said that without moving his lips!

[/quote] He's out of town for a couple of days, so is likely suffering without Basschat. I've used this amp lots of times, since we share a practice space and a house.
joegarcia Posted May 31, 2009 Author Posted May 31, 2009 (edited) Haha, yea, what Mr Foxen said really. Don't need the headroom this has. I use two rigs together, the Sunn for low end and headroom and I'm gonna get an Ampeg V4 (100w) to drive hard alongside the Sunn. Edited May 31, 2009 by joegarcia
