LukeFRC Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 i saw one of these in my local Cash converters, [url="http://www.vintagehofner.co.uk/gallery/gallery3/gallery6/gallery7/gallery8/amp2.html"]http://www.vintagehofner.co.uk/gallery/gal...lery8/amp2.html[/url] £200 and weighed a ton. I think i was franz ferdinand using summit that looked similar when i saw them a few years back I post this for two reasons 1) what is it, could you use it on bass? 2) its on dalry road if anyone wants it!

stingrayfan Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 200 quid? Not sure about using on bass - but I wouldn't plug anything into one of those that was connected to the mains! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obbm Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Old valve PA head. 100-watts. Tone controls are a bit restrictive with only bass and treble. It'll work with a bass but better with a guitar however the power stage will do for anything so you might need a better pre-amp. Slmer had a range of valve amps including the Treble'N' bass 50, Zodiac and the PA100. All very similar architecture. Prices vary depending on condition. For £200 it would need to be in good working order. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SELMER-P-A-100SV_W0QQitemZ270184060875"]A PA100 went on eBay for £33 at the weekend. [/url] but a Zodiac 100 went for £261 recently. Old PA heads are a great way to get into valve amps however you need to get them thoroughly checked over by a qualified technician before putting it anywhere near a National Grid Interface connector.
