trace elliot vtype 600 head (just a preamp now)

[bryanonbass]

trace elliot v-type 600 head that is currently wired as a preamp only. The output transformer is blown on it. I've been using it with a qsc power amp and it kills, but I just don't want to lug 2 pieces of gear.
ill include the transformer if you want to try to rebuild it.

lets say 250 and ill entertain trade offers.

Yes, swapping out the coil is easy.
The hard part is ...
A. Finding the correct replacement.
B. Justifying the cost. BAS has them for the AH150 & AH250 but that's as high as they go at 80 & 120 bucks respectively. IIRC.
Looks like about 50 cents per watt
I was not able to find one for a AH600 online but thinking its gonna be around 250-300 atleast for the right coil. Plus shipping.
