niceguyhomer Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 (edited) I truly love this rig but I have a hip and back problem that's deteriorating rapidly and need something a lot lighter. The head is in mint condition, racked from day 1 in a new Boschma case (the best IMO), it also has a row of plug sockets on the back which is really useful and two OBBM leads as you can see in the pic below. The two channel foot-switchable head would cost you a grand or maybe a bit more if new, the rack case another £65, the plug thingy another £40 plus £25 for the cables. I'd be looking for £750 for the head which includes the extras described above. I also have a GS112 and GS112NT in very good condition which I'd sell for £425 for the pair. The problem is I'm in two working bands and need a rig during the transition. I realise that it's unlikely I'll sell the thing complete so a split will probably be necessary. Just bear this in mind because timing etc may be an issue but if you're interested in anything, let's talk. I don't want to ship but will deliver items within a reasonable distance or meet halfway. I'm not interested in any trades unless it involves a mint condition Epifani UL310 or UL410. Pics Edited July 4, 2010 by niceguyhomer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTUK Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Indeed, looks a very fine mini rig there. I don't get it tho, weight is a thing but you'll trade for a 3x10 or 4x10 UL...how light are those things then..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just the weight factor - two cabs means two trips. My main band only does theatres so the get ins can be a bit distant sometimes (yeah I know I can buy a trolley). The other thing is I have to keep my gear upstairs at home so one cab = 1 trip. Both bands DI everything so it's possible to get away with a smaller rig.

TPJ Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 (edited) Note sure it's an option but the Mesa Walkabout 12 combo I now use easily matches the volume of the AI and 2 GS112s I used to use, plus the tone is fantastic. A little heavy but might be an all in one option for you. Anyone who buys this Aggie setup will be very happy indeed Edited June 30, 2010 by TPJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesso Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I put Eminance deltalite II's in my two gs112 cabs... made them very noticably lighter. Plus (IMO) they sound a lot punchier and focused. Could be worth looking into.... that is unless you really fancy a change! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfoxnik Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Great looking set up!! I have an Aguilar pre in one of my basses and an Aguilar Tone Hammer as well, and am very happy with the tonal range available and the fundamental Aguilar sound that's there if i want it, so I imagine this rig sounds pretty amazing! Good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Walkabout would probably be perfect for me but I guess it isn't going to be easy selling this ATM. [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='882671' date='Jul 1 2010, 07:40 AM']Great looking set up!!

The rig does truly sound fantastic and I think my main band will be a bit gutted if it goes but my ageing body demands that I get something easier to carry.

6stringbassist Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Fancy a part trade for a Markbass LM2 and an Epi UL112. I'd only want the one GS112. Very lightweight, I have a trolley that it fits on. I've taken it on the London tube loads of time to gigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne58 Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 I heard this rig at one of Alans theatre gigs recently, it's warm, focussed and punchy....gorgeous sound. Shame it has to go, good luck with the sale Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niceguyhomer Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 I think I'm going to have to buy one Chris - I can't see this selling in the current climate. Plenty of offers to buy one cab but that's not really any use to me unless the other bits go too. I certainly won't cry if I have to keep it - it's the best rig I've ever used.
