I bought this sweet little combo several years ago, but I've only put 20-30 hours on it. Mint condition, original shipping box, cover, manuals. It can be yours for $550 including shipping to the continental US!

I have had one of these since early to mid 2000's when they came on sale over here in the UK. Mainly I use it for home practice and quiet rehearsal sessions. It's also great for using live with with acoustic/electric guitars.

These are sweet little amps. I’ve got the 200 version and at practices with an 5 piece group I’m using it at a very low settings to not overpower others. I should have purchased the 100 watt version. Very clean tone that lets an Alembic really shine through.

I have one of those and use it with my alembics and and they do pack a great punch for it's size. It's also great with an acoustic guitar and acoustic bass guitar. I have also used it mic'd top with my alembic Orion guitar and whilst it won't be loud enough to hear directly, the sound of it mic'd up and put through the monitors is great.

Is that the one that is powered by battery as well as normally? I'm looking at the Roland Bass Cube but Phil Jones is more tempting. Thanks.

Yes the briefcase is the one that has the rechargeable battery option.

I'm really interested. So to be clear, this one has the battery option and can be used both ways, or would I need to buy something else to make that work? Thanks.

It does not sell new with a battery included (in the UK) not sure about elsewhere, so you will need to get one. The charging happens whilst you have it plugged into the mains. It also has a socket on the back that you can use an external power supply like a car battery to charge it up. If you haven't found it, I have popped a link to the manual.
