Phil Jones Bass BP-800 amplifier £400 Llanfyllin SY22

[Aidan63]

I am not gigging so no longer need a powerful, versatile, compact, and what I would describe as transparent, amplifier. I have been using an Ampeg SGT-DI with it for a very convincing (to my ears) B-15 sound through a BC MkIII Cab. 

 

Amplifier is in very good condition, not many hours use, and is complete with original box, packaging, mains lead with UK 3 pin plug and manual.

There's a very slight scratch on the top, looks like maybe the plug marked it when picked up with the lead to move it but it's not dented. The black brushed aluminium case shows every fingerprint and the very slightest mark. It has lived in a padded RokSak when not being used with foam protecting every edge and cables in separate pockets.

Small and lightweight just got more powerful with the introduction of Phil Jones Bass’ BP-800 bass amplifier. The BP-800 is a high power, high performance no compromise compact amplifier that delivers more bass for the buck. The BP800 features a Class A pre-amp with the popular PJB 5-Band EQ.

Although it weighs only 5.7 lbs and is 7.5” wide the BP-800 is built with the ruggedness and precision needed to withstand all the rigors of live performance and the road. The appealing blue front panel is a quarter inch thick and CNC machined while the chassis is built from thick aluminium extrusion making it incredibly strong. All control knobs are PJB design solid aluminium billet for a high end look and feel.

The BP-800 will work on any AC voltage from 100- 240 volts AC enabling it to conveniently travel worldwide without having to switch to local AC supply voltages. The Power Output is 400 watts into 8 Ohms, and 800 watts into 4 ohms (maximum load). The dimensions are 7.5” wide x 2.5” high x 12.5 “deep.

Other features include Mute /Passive/Active Switch, Headphone out and auxiliary input jacks, Balanced line out with pre/post EQ and ground lift switches, FX send/return Jacks, Pre Amp out and Power amp input jacks and a High-Current Speakon Out.

 

Price is with shipping with either Parcelforce or UPS to mainland UK other than premium price far flung areas.

 

Tradewise, I am in the market for a tidy Macbook Pro 16 2019-on with a bit more than base RAM installed that can run current iOS and last a few more years as I want to leave Microsoft for good. 

 

Not listed elsewhere, I don't do FB or W'App, so next move would be Ebay and or Reverb. Thank you for looking.
