couldn't really tell how it sounded because he had flats on his pbass. i'm sure it'll sound fine.

anyone have a copy of the manual or schematic for the 250?


Good, I'm glad somebody got it.

I'm curious what the 'edge' knob will do at gig volume. It didn't seem to do much when I was testing it out...

I've had a 260 since 1988 or so...Love that thing! Sounds great, still! for a while, I was using it as a power amp--which is somewhat goofy, but...live and learn. Will take a pic and post later on....but can I have a number?

Here's Mine

Read through the threads and didn't see any posts on the BH220 with the XB15 cabinet. Anyway, here's mine...had it since the mid to late 80's as I recall. GREAT rig! I have a couple of other pix if anyone is interested.

I picked up an AMP BH 420 today. Once I got home I tried it with a 1-12" cab, two 1-12" cabs, and a 4-12" cab.

All is good with the 1-12" cabs, but there is something strange with the 4-12". It seems to have an odd distortion on the 12th fret D. Very odd. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Yeah, it was a pair of 4 ohm speakers. Blew the head surprisingly quickly haha! I really need to get that input jack fixed, but other things are pressing, and it works really well with the SANSamp as a pre amp into a dbx compressor into the power amp input. Sounds great, very loud through my hartke 4x10.

I opened up the case to see if I could just "adjust" the angle of the tines on the jack, but it is some unusual sealed contraption that scared me so I closed her up and let it be.

Havent been around in a while, but I was reading a Thunderfunk thread and came across the link this one... I'd forgotten about it!

Here's the update, with some early and late additions to rectify by being too much of a stickler for posting pics.

Cool stuff guys. I'm still using mine once a week !

I'm an A.M.P-aholic! at one time I had 2 420's, a 260 and a 250. I now have a 420, Gibson 440 and a Thunderfunk 420. That 220/cab further up the thread is Cherry!
