Moos3h Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 (edited) Hi all, Now surplus to requirements, my good condition GK Gallien-Krueger 300w Backline 600 is now for sale. Only minor marks from load-ins at gigs, but full working order with no damage to speak of. *** Trade Pending *** Cheers, James Edited March 31, 2010 by Moos3h
Sarah5string Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 What you looking for to trade? Anything specific?
Moos3h Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 Not really...I've managed to take a big bite out of my debt pile, so I can afford to be swayed by something shiny! I don't need an outright sale. Thinking guitar/bass/amp rather than effects or anything similar. I was actually going to mention this head in your thread but decided it might be too blatant. Suffice to say this would fit the bill very well! Cheers, James
Sarah5string Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Hmm... all I have to offer is my existing laney, an Ibanez 5 string acoustic which I'm hardly using or a couple of small children
Sarah5string Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Congrats on the debt though.. just done the same myself hence can now afford to look for new gear
Moos3h Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 Feels good, dunnit! Still a fair chunk to go, but I'm happy enough to allow myself a treat for now! I'll have a think about the acoustic, I do need one but would really prefer a 4 in an ideal world. Do you have any pics of it? Does it have a case? Cheers, James

Sarah5string Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) Mine is slightly different in that it had a crack in the headstock which I had repaired by a pro luthier friend of mine, so the headstock is now black without the ibby logo sadly, and the neck is natural colour instead of the dark like the body, if you want pics of that just say. It's in really good condition bar that and a small chip by the input plate. bought it about a year ago off dolphin for £350 and it's not had much use sadly as I bought it with the intention of doing open mics but then joined a band... It's gorgeous to play though and has a lovely tone to it. Just a shame it's sat gathering dust. Edited March 29, 2010 by Sarah5string
Moos3h Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 It's quite a looker...! Does it have a case? I'll have a ponder as i'm allergic to 5's but this could make me change my mind a bit. I guess meetup would be the only option if the trade went ahead...unless you have a case and are happy to post....?

Depending where in hertfordshire you are we could meet in the middle somewhere if you wanted to trade.
karlthebassist Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Or, to spice it up a bit - If you want a 4 sting, how about Moos3h takes my MINT Crafter - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=71101&hl=crafter"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...&hl=crafter[/url], Sarah takes the Head, and I take Sarah's Ibanez? I have the 4 string of the Ibanez and I'd love to have the 5 too! I wouldn't mind a bit of a drive to make a deal possible either. PM me if youre interested. Cheers
Sarah5string Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) Fine by me either way if Moo3h wants to deal Would be like a mini meet up Edited March 29, 2010 by Sarah5string
karlthebassist Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Haha. Cool beans. And our locations form a sort of triangle, so a meeting place shouldn't be too hard to arrange.

karlthebassist Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 I didn't think of that... mmm... I think I'm prepared to take the risk for the sake of bassy-goodness.

karlthebassist Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Its always hard to avoid making a "head" related gag in these threads! I saw you post on another thread about looking for a new amp. I'd say you could do a LOT worse than going for this head and pairing it up with a cab such as a decent 2x12. I say 2x12 as I personally think 12's are the way to go for a trade off between bottom end from 15's and definition from 10's - and with a band like Oni I guess you'll be wanting some biiiiig bass.
Moos3h Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 Karl (and Sarah!), I'm 99% sold on this idea, but does yours come with a case (I'm a lummox, so guitars HAVE to be cased around me) - if so then it's a done deal, if not then can I get a case for this shape do you think? Cheers, James
karlthebassist Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Mine does not come with a case, but I know 100% that you can get them, as I have seen someone gigging in my local area with the same bass and in a hardcase. I have been keeping it in an acoustic guitar soft bag that I have, and it almost fits in there. The body fits perfectly, but the headstock pokes out the top a little (only the top tuners though!) so I reckon a bigger acoustic case could do the job! I'd offer you that case, but it was quite expensive, and I use it to take my 6-string to practices. Glad to hear you are liking the idea though! Do it! You know you want to.
