Hey guys.

This is a potential BARGAIN.

I have an Ampeg B1RE bass amp for sale. Aesthetically its in superb condition BUT it doesn't work. Something in the power amp section appears to be blowing the fuse every time you power up (im not sure about exactly what the problem is, but I can't imagine its hard for a tech to fix). Also, the DI socket needs fixed.

This means the amp is sold 'as is' (not working) and you will need to have it repaired. For this reason, I am selling it for £100 only (These things retail for nearly £470 online) and after repair, you will have picked up a bargain. I will even throw in the schematics for the whole thing to make your life easier!

Reason for sale is that I can't afford to pay the £30ish bench fee to get it repaired (if i could, I would do that and sell it for twice the price!) and I need money for rent...

I know it's an odd offer, but for £100 plus a little extra for the repair shop, you could pick yourself up a 300 watt Ampeg head.
