Trace Elliot 350SMX Head
Thursday 07 January 2010
This was another bargain buy on ebay.
The owner had it from new and had kept it flight-cased along with 2 cabs all the time he had them, so it was in immaculate condition.
I've been a fan of Trace Elliot amps ever since I started playing bass, and this head was the one I lusted after. After nearly 20 years, I finally acquired the rig I dreamed about all those years ago.
How does it sound? Blimmin' awesome!

350Watt (700Watt Peak) @ 4 ohms
