FS: Trace Elliot AH-500 *cheap*

This is another one of those "I don't want to sell it but I have to" threads. I gotta baby on the way and I need as much cash as possible. I love this amp and it's super powerful. I've gigged it without PA support and it was plenty loud, including an outdoor gig. I've never had to turn it up past 4. It's definitely under rated at 500 watts. There is a setting where you would need more amp than this one.

It's in excellent condition and it has a lot of features. It has a really nice DI that I've used for recording and put it into the PA when I felt like it. It also has a tube drive knob that uses a 12ax7 to add as much grit as you want. Another one of my favourite features is the two-band compressor which really tightened things up when using drop-D tuning with my old metal band.

I really can't say enough about this amp and I wouldn't be selling it if I didn't need the money. I have it in a Mesa Boogie head case, which it fits perfectly in. I can sell it with or without the case. Just let me know what you want. It also comes with rack ears if you want to rack it and don't want the case. There is no bulb in the black light, but the previous owner said it worked just fine.

Price:$499 plus shipping without the head case and $599 plus shipping with it. I'm willing to sell the case alone for $99 plus shipping. I take paypal and money orders.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks

Michael

Do you have the footswitch? Also, any idea how difficult it will be to replace the backlight bulb? Thanks.

Sorry, I never had the foot switch. I'm pretty sure you just need to remove the two screws in the front and the bulb goes right there. The previous owner said that British Audio Service had the bulbs for it.

Thanks,

Michael

mesa case

I will take that Mesa shell, in the event you will consider selling it without the amp, but just need to verify dimensions of the cutout on the front panel first..I noticed you stated you would sell the amp without the case, but if you'll do the case without the amp, let me know..

All pm's finally replied. Sorry guys, not only do I have strep, but I am all of a sudden allergic to penicillin and I've had a severe allergic reaction to my antibiotics. I look like a poisoned Ukrainian president right now. I'm on a ton of meds and starting to feel better.
