A lot of guitars and gear have passed through my hands since then, including 3 more Campbell American Precix guitars. I rarely see them for sale any more but I picked mine up cheap, less than £500 each. They are excellent guitars - lightweight, gotoh hardware, seymour duncan pickups, the very best fretwork and necks with very low action and nitro finishes.
I made a mistake though - I let three of them get very cold on a frosty night and the finishes cracked. You can't see the checking in this pic but I rather like it and to complete the relic look I sanded off the finish on the top bout. It feels like a well worn in, old but fantastic playing guitar.
Note the two Barefaced cabs. The smaller one in this pic is a 12 inch guitar cab with a V30 eminence equivalent. Its a great cab - the main feature being that it disperses the sound better than a conventional 1x12 cab. In practice, it means you can play quieter and let the PA do the work which keeps the sound engineer and the rest of the band happy.
On top of that is a Supro Black Magik head. Its a 25 watt tube head whichis supposed to be based on Jimmy Page's Supro used on the early Zep recordings. Like many 25 watt heads it is loud although more manageable (and lighter) than the bigger heads of yesteryear. It sounds good and works well with pedals. It seems very well made, it's PCB based although it uses non-standard tubes. Tube amps can go on for decades so I hope the valve supply will be reliable.
Next to that is the other Barefaced cab, a Super Compact with a 12 inch neo driver by eminence. This cab is amazing - it can easily handle the 800 Mark Bass head and it goes really loud whilst weighing very little. Barefaced are made in Brighton by engineer Alex Clabber. Barefaced is a small company and obviously their marketing budget is limited, so you dont read much about them but they are brilliant cabs. Not cheap mind but not unreasonable. I have gigged on bass with them for years, first with a Big One - 1x15, 1x8 and horn and more recently with a Big Twin - 2x12 and horn. There is so much headroom I can go way louder then I ever need and they are light and very easy to carry.
