using Sunn equipment overseas
« on: January 23, 2005, 12:53:40 pm »
Ok, my band is going to tour europe and I'm taking a Beta Bass combo with me. Is there any special voltage converter or transformer that I need to buy in order to run the amp off of european juice?

Also, anyone in Europe who is interested in buying a vintage Beta Bass combo amp should get in touch with me cuz I'm planning on selling the amp out there as soon as our tour is over. Any reasonable offers will get consideration. thanks

Does the Beta have a voltage selector on the back? Probably not, but, if it does, problem solved!

Next, it's possible that the transformer can be rewired for 220v mains.

Otherwise, you'll need a transformer to reduce the voltage from 220 to 110. They're easily available from military exchanges and from US personnel transferring back to the States, but I don't know of other sources. I was in the Navy when I was in Europe.
