And it's in your neck of the woods, too!

Damn that's the bass head I used to own! Mine was inside a 2x10 cab thought. What model is that tracebass?

 

[Tracebassplayer]

GP12VX They were the S%&^, still are. Dang good preamp... The missing input knob cap is available at Britishaudioservice . com


I know where there is a Trace Elliot Soundboard PA BNIB!!!!!!!

 

[Ellefty]

Cool thanks

I remember the distinct tone on that thing, will never forget it, even though I don't have it anymore

I promised pics of my AH130Sm's innards...

...no tube, but very clean! I also found that it's a '94, according to the build sticker inside - I thought it was a '96. In any case, it's a definite keeper!

Very nice, very clean.
goes to the idea that the tube was only standard in the higher wattage amps... but no one knows for sure...

I bet your rig sounds great. No experience or real knowledge about the Bright Box. What's the strategy; do you use a cross over and a separate amp? How much does it weigh?

The Bright Box has it's own X-over built-in. You just daisy chain it after your main cab(s). It is a heavy little bastard at about 20 lbs but well worth it IMO.

 

[Tracebassplayer]

That's one of the great things about the older SM series like my Ah1200SM... you can daisy-chain more than 2 8ohm cabs.
Using the bright box with your 1048H/1518T (or ??) stack, you would still be above the 2ohm min load spec!
Why did they go to a 4 ohm min load spec....????

At the time pretty much all the manufacturers of SS amps were doing the same.

The great thing about the Bright Box is that it doesn't affect your ohms.

Thanks for the info. I suppose I'll need one now.

 

[Downunderwonder]

The bright box has high impedance so you just run it parallel and it doesn't affect the load.

Just picked up a GP7SM 250 with a Grundorf carpeted rack case all in mint condition for $225. Pics coming tonight! -Luke

Niiiiiice!

There are two sliders that are missing, but all in all it's in perfect shape! Very nice Grundorf rack case. I might get another Odyssey rack case to change it up to black. -Luke

 

[Tracebassplayer]

Looks good.... I've seen replacement sliders around from time to time.
I'd see if I can find another AH250SM case so I could have the black light...
There's got to be a few around, some people take the head out and put them in a rack...
But your idea works, too.

Thats a good idea Trace! I love Odyssey cases. They are the deepest black carpet and have a unique design in general. After losing $25,000 in gear when my house burned down in 2008,its nice to start building up my equipment again! Hail Trace Elliot! LoL -Luke
