onehappybunny Posted December 15, 2007 Posted December 15, 2007 (edited) I have been ummm'ing and ahhhh'ing about selling this very flexible, lightweight 500W head (@ 2ohms) and have eventually decided to sell up as I have decided to go for a combo instead. Most recently I've been using it as a pre-amp, as the pre-amp section is very flexible (inc. various modelled sounds - from clean, tube, overdrive, distorted etc.). That way you also have a backup if the power amp fails!

Just p.m. me with any interest Thanks Stu Edited January 28, 2008 by onehappybunny

GreeneKing Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 I was inspired to get mine out again and give it some exercise. A very useful amp at a very reasonable price. I've actually got two as Thomann were selling them for a really silly couldn't be passed over price, for a week or so many moons ago. Like so much Yamaha stuff it's good, let down by being sold at highly discounted rates, poorly marketed (Big Company) and has low popularity that belies it's quality i.e. if it had another name on it and was more expensive it'd ironically be a lot more popular, imo of course. So Bump
onehappybunny Posted December 17, 2007 Author Posted December 17, 2007 Still available - despite the kind words above
onehappybunny Posted January 24, 2008 Author Posted January 24, 2008 Bump - I'll also include a black 'Animal' (the surfing brand) laptop bag which fits the head perfectly in the price. Makes transporting the head a doddle. Will post a pic when I get a chance.
MythSte Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 What a deal! Im not in much position to be making offers at the moment im afraid, Am i right in assuming its about 300w at 4 ohms?

Also, weighs just 11 lbs 7 oz. I've sold my cabs to BassJase (really nice guy b.t.w.), but a couple of folks on this site have matching Yamaha cabs for sale.
