Members The Broken Remain Posted September 30, 2005 Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 Hi I'm looking to buy an Ampeg VH series head, the 140-C preferably. I was bidding on one of them on ebay, and I was the only bidder for the entire six days, and it stayed at $200 plus shipping...UNTIL theres 2 minutes left in the auction. Some asshole then decided to get into a bidding war with me, which led to me not getting the head. So if anyone has one of these and wants to sell it, please let me know. Thanks!

Members HottKarl Posted September 30, 2005 Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 I was watching that listing but didn't bid....what did it wind up going for? I had a feeling that it would get sniped badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Broken Remain Posted September 30, 2005 Author Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 It went for 245 or 250 plus shipping, I believe. With about 5 seconds left I tried putting in a 260 or 270 bid, but I guess the other guys max bid was higher, so I didn't have time to try again after that.

Members HottKarl Posted September 30, 2005 Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 That sucks....I imagine you'll get one eventually, those pop up pretty regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FalseRevRG Posted September 30, 2005 Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 sorry, not planning to get rid of my 150 any time soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Broken Remain Posted September 30, 2005 Author Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 Yeah I can only hope there's someone on here selling one, or one on ebay with a decent BIN soon. Hey I see you have a Vader 412, I'm thinking about buying one of those too. How does it compare to other high-end cabs, and what kind of music do you play with it? I'm getting into a death metal band, and it looks like it'll hold up well for that style of music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, I LOVE the clips I've heard from your 150 can't say i've ever played a 140-C, but i'd imagine they'd be very similar. you can probably expect more clips throughout the next few months, i'm taking a recording techniques class and once we get into microphone stuff i'll be doing more with it probably. the ultra plus, too, i'm sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting into a death metal band, and it looks like it'll hold up well for that style of music. The Vader EXCELS at death metal. The first time I heard one was when Suffocation first got back together.....they did a show and funny enough, one of the guitarists was playing a VH140 through it. I compared this to three cabs 1.) Marshall 1960A 2.) VHT 4x12 and 3.) Recto Oversized 4x12. Marshall was the worst of the 3, kinda buzzy to my ears. I liked the VHT a lot, bright & crisp with a very tight low end...almost too tight (if that's possible.) The Boogie was very good too....just found the bass a little boomy. The Vader was the best of both worlds: Tight bass response, mids sound great...they really growl with out having piercing highs. I think the Triple Rect sounds great through it. And I can tell you that the Ampeg VH140 sounded amazing through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Guttermouth Posted September 30, 2005 Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 just as a heads up - there are like 5 ss series heads on musicgoround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TU BE Posted September 30, 2005 Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 Dude, if you get in a "bid war" always put the absolute max you would pay for the amp. For instance, if your max is 325 then just bid that right away. If you lose, then oh well, it sold for more than you are willing to pay anyhow. Odds are you'll win because most people bid in smaller increments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Broken Remain Posted September 30, 2005 Author Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 Hey I just noticed that the ones on music go round are all the SS series and not the VH series. What are the differences between the two? Do the SS heads still have the brutal voicing and the gain for death metal and such? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members potaetoes Posted September 30, 2005 Members Share Posted September 30, 2005 if you just bid what you were willing to pay in the first place, you wouldn't have any reason to complain. if you were willing to bid 260 at the end, why didn't you bid 260 when you placed your first bid?
