MythSte Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 This is completly not my mind made up, at all, in the slightest, etc etc. however, Ive just had a word with our manager about a gig we have on friday, and the conversation went something like this... The Venue said they dont have a bass amp, are you okay to sort one out? -Yeah sure thing, i'll just ring up the guys and let them know *on phone to guitarist* -Jambo, we need to bring a bass amp, just lettin you know we'll need to load it tomorrow. Oh man, We'll just take the ashdown (EB180) from the studio, yours is a ballache. So its with huge regret that this is up for trade. however its not going easily! I think Ideally i'd Love something like a Little Mark and two Aggie 112's or similar. Let me know what you got. cheers guys.
Merton Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 Nah, tell your band members to grow a backbone and help you move it to the gig! It has wheels!
MythSte Posted October 18, 2007 Author Posted October 18, 2007 lol, i think i made it out to be a bigger deal than it is. We are taking it, and it didnt take much persuasion. but yeah, you never know what might happen!
MythSte Posted October 21, 2007 Author Posted October 21, 2007 badabump. Markbass rig? Little mark and aggie cabs? Tech 21? gwaan
shaundixon666 Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 [quote name='ped' post='76202' date='Oct 18 2007, 09:16 PM']Exactly - sell your guitar player.[/quote] Thats usually the answer to most problems in a band Have a free bump for making me almost choke on my crunchy nut corn flakes reading that
bass_ferret Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 I did wonder about this when you got it. Most players only get 8x10's when they get roadies
MythSte Posted October 21, 2007 Author Posted October 21, 2007 this is true! But i had the option to, and its not a physical impossibility, in fact i dont even mind that much. but if i can get a good tone from a more modular rig then i wouldnt mind. But, there is NOTHING like an 810 behind you. eesh
Kev Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 im sure two 4x10's wouldnt be far off and easier to transport
Finbar Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 412s are the way of the future. Don't know why they don't catch on more
stingrayfan Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Tell the guitar player to stop moaning and get lifting!
MythSte Posted October 22, 2007 Author Posted October 22, 2007 but im quite fond of our guitarist! aha. Well ill leave it here for any offers. as i said, Markbass, Small Aguilars maybe even a couple of2x10s Let me know watcha got
MythSte Posted October 22, 2007 Author Posted October 22, 2007 not unless i was offered original retail value, or very near. Which is around the £1,100 mark.
MythSte Posted October 23, 2007 Author Posted October 23, 2007 Exactly =) If i were to sell this i'd not only be ampless but brainless too. naturally!
MythSte Posted October 23, 2007 Author Posted October 23, 2007 yes, yes it did. But like i said, Selling for anywhere around that, quite frankly would be rediculous. realistically id entertain offers around £800. But even that would leave me with no amp and a tight budged to get a good lightweight rig. Please note, i didnt mean to insult with the price! it was deliberatly outrageous!
MythSte Posted October 23, 2007 Author Posted October 23, 2007 Well, yes. My point being that i dont want to be out of hand thats all. the only reason money was bought into the equation was because someone asked if i was looking to sell, My reaction being purposly outrageous to prove i didnt want to let it go as a sale and be without an amp. Then i gave an honest opinion of what it would be worth, regardless of what i paid for it. i dont want this thread to turn nasty so i hope that clears anything up!
steve-soar Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 I see, so trades only would give you better value. But you could probably make something like your money back and still get something cool. That thing is a beast and I think for anyone to trade a lightweight, portable setup for it would have to be very passionate about wanting to own an 8x10. I hope I'm wrong though so best of luck.
MythSte Posted October 23, 2007 Author Posted October 23, 2007 yeah i know what you mean steve, its an outside chance but always worth a try! I know there are people out there looking at this and thinking "Well, i guess i could get it in the back of my car!"
steve-soar Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 I can imagine that it sounds totally awsome and then some. I heard a demo of Nemesis gear once by some guy with only one hand! I can't remember his name but his playing and sound were stunning.
