Members bigdaddyd Posted October 3, 2008 Members Share Posted October 3, 2008 what is a test model? I mean I know what it is if you are the manufacturer, but you aren't are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rog951 Posted October 3, 2008 Members Share Posted October 3, 2008 Did you make that info known to the seller before he/she chose to purchase it?What difference does that make? The new owner can bias it any way he wants.Test model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members guitarplayer Posted October 4, 2008 Members Share Posted October 4, 2008 Me thinks you sold him a MicroCube and taped a Tiny Terror sticker across the front grill. You knew you would be caught. You wanted to be caught so you would stop your madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members guitarbilly74 Posted October 4, 2008 Members Share Posted October 4, 2008 tiny terror... test model...worth $100 Yeah, he's probably talking about his penis. Just disregard the msg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Devinstation Posted October 4, 2008 Author Members Share Posted October 4, 2008 tiny terror... test model...worth $100Yeah, he's probably talking about his penis. Just disregard the msg HAHAHA I got no call back after he called Orange ... wonder why. I told him he needs to find a new tech ... and that his might be mentally retarded. Then I added "Unless you are trying to screw with me, in which case you'd be the retarded one!" Then I did that awkward joking laugh where he knows I'm dead serious. As for the bias thing, that was just a shot in the dark as to why the tubes died, I had ZERO issues with the amp, in fact it was a nice amp I just need mah cleans (now I have a Fender Bassman). And this was a local sale sparked via craigslist but I knew the kid from high school. It goes without saying he knows nothing about gear, because no one of any amount of sense would buy that BS from a tech. without calling Orange first (the obvious thing) or would try to pull that BS on me who he knew was slightly knowledgeable about the equipment I own. But seriously ... a test model??? I am calling him today to follow up on everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you get the amp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Devinstation Posted October 4, 2008 Author Members Share Posted October 4, 2008 So in other words, there is no such thing as a so-called test model that you are aware of? Where did you get the amp? From a Forumite on here, which I also told the guy I sold it too. He sent it to me in the retail box HE bought it in, with the price tag still on the box. And according to the rep. at Orange, "There is no such things as test-models, and if we did make them we wouldn't sell them." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Badside Posted October 4, 2008 Members Share Posted October 4, 2008 Also, for those who don't know: you can't bias a Tiny Terror, therefore you can't bias it hot. It's cathode biased, you'd have to swap a resistor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
