For sale or possible trade is a Trace V-Type preamp. Supposed to be a lot like the Alembic F-1x preamp. I like the sound of this but I'm just not using this preamp as much as I thought I would so figured I would offer it up here. Everything seems to function as it should and it sounds great but I'm just looking for a different sound right now. A little rack-rash but nothing major. Face is pretty clean. Let me know if you need better pics. I bought it for $350 for it in Dec 2012 (from a fellow TB'er) and haven't used it too much at all. So I will start out at $350 obo shipped and work from there. Here is a list of possible trades I would be interested in: Genz Benz Neo Pak 3.5 Ampeg preamp (SVTIIP would be nice) 4 String basses valued around $300-400 range Epi TBird pro 4 MIM Jazz or Precision 4 string with rosewood fretboard Nicer Squier Jazz or Precision (not Affinity) with rosewood fretboard Nice Jazz neck with rosewood/ebony/etc board (neck from a Jazz Special or Aerodyne would be cool) Open to other ideas including trade+$$. Shoot me an offer worst I can do is say no thanks. Thanks, Andy
I'm a little lost on this one here... I have the TE V4 head with the KT88's in it. This unit acts as a pre amp with a had like mine? I need to replace all of my Trace Elliot drivers/speakers. I have the 4/10 + horn and the dual front ported 15" travel bottom. 4 - 10's, 1 - 15 and while I'm at it I might as well do the tweeter. After reading some posts here, I think that I will try to replace them with what they we're originally fitted for. The Trace Elliot drivers. Feedback? Opinions?
I am not sure if this is going to answer your question, but I think the preamp is just like the T.E. V-type 5001, 300H, and 600H hybrid heads without the solid state power section. Someone else may be able to explain it better than I can. Here is a link to an old listing for a 300H head that might explain it better: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f127/trace-elliot-v-type-300h-hybrid-head-884275/ Hope that helps.
