Finbar Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 If its a good price, do it. Could do awesome things with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yes I used to have one.. got it for 150 quid. They sound REALLY good! But I found 50Watts wasnt enough for bass in a rock setting.. However when I used it to play lead guitar in a metal band... WELL!!! I like! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Funk Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I remember looking at some of the Marshall and Mesa valve guitar power amps for bass a while ago. In the end I decided that 50W a side just probably wouldn't be enough. They just seem like cool bits of kit nonetheless and I'd get one even if I had no real use for one. (My Warwick Quadruplet + a Marshall valve power amp would be a pretty tasty guitar set-up though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGEvans Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 well first off its a freebie! so thats a good start.i bought a marshall 2x15 off one of the chaps here and apparently they make quite nice gutar cabs so the power amp may suit that.will let you know how it goes,thanks for that,tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
