Trace Elliott® New Bass Amplifier Enclosures

Trace Elliott® New Bass Amplifier Enclosures


Trace Elliot

Posted 2006-09-06


British amplifier manufacturer Trace Elliot has announced its new U.S. product range for 2006, including four specially tuned bass amplifier cabinets outfitted with Celestion® loudspeakers. Trace Elliot enclosures are designed in multiple speaker and power-handling configurations, and are tuned to specific frequencies—with unobstructed central and bottom slots—depending on the loudspeaker configuration and cabinet size. Trace Elliot’s engineering and design team tune the cabinets in a highly controlled, scientific process to ensure consistency and quality throughout the bass enclosure range.

Trace Elliot cabinets are constructed using lightweight poplar ply, which is internally braced top-tobottom, left-to-right and front-to-rear for strength and rigidity. The cabinets are covered in the classic black Trace Elliot covering and fitted with stainless steel hardware.

The Trace Elliot 1028H™, 1048H™, 1518™ and 1518c™ enclosures will be available in Q4 2006 from authorized retailers.

Regarded as the first true specialty bass amplifier manufacturer, Trace Elliot established operation in the U.K. during the 1970s and expanded to acoustic guitar amplification in the 1980s. Musicians and retailers throughout the world laud Trace Elliot's unique circuitry and unmistakable performance, and professional bassists such as John Entwistle of The Who, Steve Harris of Iron Maiden, Bill Wyman of The Rolling Stones and Doug Wimbish are among the many artists who have endorsed Trace Elliot products during its history.
