Yep.

It is officially mine as of last night.





I know the pics are of shit quality, but took them real quick for commercial insurance reasons.

sweet, thats pretty cheap.

Yeah, I am not complaining over the price either. I wound up buying a replacement footswitch that lit up and re-tubing it, but re-tubing it goes without saying when you buy a used tube amp.

That's an awesome deal, good score.

Thanks blue.

If you ever see me live again, you can tell me how shitty I sound through it :-)

the price is a price to splooge over

How much does a road case for a cab like that weigh? just curious.

That cab is a 5150 cab. I am not sure how much that live in hard shell case weighs, but I know that I can no longer put it into the back of my truck any more on my own.

Good news is, that amp case is a wrecking ball and is durable :-)

hah, bad news happend and you learned that?

LOL. Bad news that I can't lift it without throwing my back out?

I ment testing out the road case. usually something bad happens and then you're like "whoa, this thing works pretty good"

Ah. Gotcha. Well, it has protected my cabinet from when I gigged out in the past.

Gotta love band mates that deserve a beating because they are less than careful with your gear.

hah. We have to carry this Basson 8x10, it's like, 250+ pounds. I keep trying to get him to cut it in half and re wire it...

I'm all for road cases, I just was curious how much that weighs for cab, as they usually weigh enough already.

I can see it being safer. My cabs was scratched and torn to shit when I bouht them. Just from being in a trailer on tour. They were never played though, basically brand new, but all torn up. Guy was given 8 Randalls, had to spread the love.

Yeah, I was in a band and we didn't have a trailor. We were basically loading the cabs (before I got my hard shell case and cap for my truck) in an SUV. The bassist insisted on getting an 8x10. I suggested he did because 2 4x10s would be easier to gig out with.

Well, big suprise when he ripped 1/2 the tolex off 1 side of his then brand new 8x10 before we even got to the venue.

LULZ.

I hear you with the 8x10 hassel.

Oh yeah, I want to say that the hard shell case weighs around 80 lbs.

I did some looking online and couldn't find any weight estimates.

Nice score. Things can be had for cheap on Craigslist right now - I picked up a 1982 Ovation for $25 last week.

You needed some firewood? :-)

Bassists need to shut up and go direct. Tee hee.

I expected it to suck, but plays and sounds awesome. I do a lot of acoustic stuff, so I needed something better than my Yamaha.

nice

so the case weighs as much as the cab, burly!

craigslist is the only place i've gotten gear. expect for ebay. true story.

Damage to cabs is just a part of the game to me. My cabs always get the shit beat out of them, too hard to take care of when you're plaýing a lot of shows.

what, my cherokee? HHAHAHAAHHAAH Dizzle.

Yep!!!!!

2/3 of the tolex was ripped off 1 side before we even left the driveway.

To top it all off, I had an extra hard shell case for an amp head that I was gonna sell, until I realized it fit my Krank.
