*SOLD* EA MICRO 550

I have a micro 550 in great shape.

The micro trim pots on the top of the amp to set your gain spin a full 360 degrees. I don't think they are suppose to do that but I have found that to be a non issue. I contacted EA about fixing them and of coarse they said no problem.

Once you set these trim pots for your bass you really never have to mess with them again. It's not something you mess with on a gig although you certainly could. So unless you swap basses out alot you will probably never touch them again once you set them for your bass. I did not send the amp to EA for repair because like I said it really is a non issue.

I have channel one set for a passive p-bass and channel 2 set for my upright. I also had a active bass that I would just turn the gain knob down instead of adjusting the trim pots.

Amp comes with the manuel, di breakout and a acoustic image bag in fair condition ( it has a small rip on the front pocket).

Asking $450 shipped in the U.S. http://www.gollihurmusic.com/product...AMPLIFIER.html

I suppose you could run a line out of the amp into the effect return of a combo and it would work. This amp does not require a speaker load to operate. I have used it before without a speaker and ran the di out to a mixing board and it worked fine.

I provided a link to the specifics on the amp, not sure if any of that info helps with what you want to do.

I was looking at the micro and it has a send/tuner out which is a 1/4" jack. The DI has a break out that is a 1/4" to a xlr. I don't know if you could use the di with a 1/4" cable straight to the effect return of your combo or not. If I remember correctly the breakout cable is not just a simple transformer cable. So the DI may not be able to just go straight to your combo with a 1/4" cable. The send/tuner jack will certainly do that though.

Its silver front. Not a scratch or ding on it. Looks just like the one on Bob G's site.

I think they are the same exact amp minus the bells and whistles the doubler has.
