Mr. Foxen Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) Traded my more practical but much more boring combo for this beast. Totally impractical for me, as much as it is a classic and sits looking cool. I always wanted the 360 my tutor had, now I have a horn cab, I don't need this to satisfy my Acoustic urge. £250, in Bristol. Edited February 25, 2010 by Mr. Foxen
karlfer Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Hello there, just wondered, what speaker is in it, and what wattage is the combo? Cheers, Karl.
ase_one23 Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 just wanted to say, niiiiiiice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like Fane's myself. It's also 125watt if I'm not mistaken. I too like the 360's. If I could find one and had the £££'s I would get one.
karlfer Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Thanks for all that folks, sadly, I am looking for 200w plus. Shame coz it looks gorgeous. I lusted after these a few years back, jealous of anybody who had one.

Mr. Foxen Posted September 6, 2009 Author Posted September 6, 2009 Just had it out, doesn't look as modern now, oldschool square magnet, no manufacturer but what looks like a service sticker on it. Will get a pic some point later when a camera is about. No wonder it weighs a ton, the port goes half way up the back, really long then flared into the horn at the front. All really thick ply.
Mr. Foxen Posted September 9, 2009 Author Posted September 9, 2009 Will take £225 for this while I've got a pending incoming new cab.

If its gor square magnets it could well be one of the original eminence, it looks in great condition o I dont suppse its had that much use.
Mr. Foxen Posted September 26, 2009 Author Posted September 26, 2009 If someone can get me payment by Wednesday, will take £200 for this. After that, back to 250 and I'll be living on lidl noodles and beans.
Mr. Foxen Posted November 18, 2009 Author Posted November 18, 2009 Bump for GAS. From the noodles and beans.
Prosebass Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 What a lovely Combo, a real blast from my past , have a bump whilst I have a think !

Beedster Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 This is still nagging at my subconscious......
Mr. Foxen Posted January 21, 2010 Author Posted January 21, 2010 I've just been playing my telebass with flats into it. This is correct and the way things should be. The guy interested is going to have a rubbish time haggling.

Ive used exclusively either a 220 or a 150b for the last 12 months relegating the ashdown and the eden to the spare room. Ive got one of these now as well, havent used it on a gig yet but sounds great at home.

Mr. Foxen Posted January 22, 2010 Author Posted January 22, 2010 Plus if you come to try it at the House of Bass, you get to play with all the other nice toys here. (No, Vintage P basses, sorry Chris.)
