  3. Phil Jones BG-450 in as-new condition. I'm a huge fan of Phil Jones gear as it's incredibly well made, hugely capable, feature packed and extremely compact. This combo really does need to be experienced first hand to be fully appreciated. Not only will it project your low B with authority at gigging volumes, it also sounds fantastic for music playback via the aux in. From the website - The Compact Plus BG-450 is the pinnacle of PJB’s line of small and light weight powerful compact bass combos. It is the same size as PJB’s C-4 speaker enclosure with a power amplifier that will reach up to 500 Watts with four internal 5” drivers. The BG-450 contains the latest proprietary PJB chrome dome drivers which are the most efficient five-inch speakers ever engineered by PJB. The result is a perfect pairing of power and driver efficiency that makes it the best sounding 4×5 combo ever made by PJB and, remarkably, with less weight. It has an incredible punchy sound that cuts through air as “a knife through butter” with a solid and powerful low-end response normally associated with a much larger combo. In the heart of this amp lies a formidable ultra-high-energy power supply using a Class D power amplifier for high efficiency which equals less heat and less weight, and is coupled with a pure Class-A, ultra-low noise pre amp. This combination completes a power section that achieves a massive dynamic range that allows the player to attain the best tone in any playing situation. The pre-amp design includes a single channel equipped with a variable gain input section that matches precisely with both active and passive basses. It also features a mute switch and the classic PJB 5-band precision EQ system that achieves the broadest range in tones imaginable with just 5 controls. This allows the player to effortlessly locate their perfect tone within seconds. The send /return FX patch can be blended to the direct signal allowing even more tonal opportunities. A secondary AUX input allows for practicing along with backing tracks via a 1/8” stereo jack. Back panel features include a Line Output jack that allows the BG-450 to be used in slave mode coupled with one or multiple amps, and a line input that provides the ability for an external pre-amp to be connected if desired. The DI balanced out can be pre or post EQ and offers a ground lift to avoid problematic hum. Speaker output is via a Speakon NL4 socket perfectly matched to run a C4 or C8 cabinet. The amp can run on any AC voltage from 100 volts to 240 volts. The Compact Plus puts out a punchy 300 watts into its own speakers and up to 500 watts when connected to an external cabinet. The BG-450 at max power will cover a wide variety of playing situations. Model: BG-450 Speaker Driver: 4X5 Inch PJB Driver Amplifier A class D amplifier with digital switch-mode power supply.

  4. Lucky 🤞 it's not a ra..
  5. Have stuck a cover of the Megadeth track, Almost Honest this month. Apple - https://music.apple.com/gb/album/almost-honest-single/1826191262 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/track/4Ljns6IRom0mdNFfR7JYsj?si=07ccc8e3d4db40ce
  6. Yeah about 80/20 neck/bridge does it for me, there’s still the thump but it’s not quite as bulky in the mids as the Precision.
  7. Learning To Fly - Pink Floyd
  8. Looks like it could be a MK1 GP11 although I'm not so sure the case is original.. With the first couple of generations of Trace Elliot gear, I believe all woodwork was painted black before the change to the grey 'pimple' type that lasted until the mid / late '90s ie, the early SM and SMX ranges.. Hope you have fun with it..
  9. Interesting @Lozz196 that you have transitioned to a Jazz and your bandmates feel its lower/deeper. That’s exactly the opposite to my experience. I think my bandmates could pick out the notes better rather than feel them, but I like the good old fashioned thump. And if you favour the neck pickup, then perhaps you do too?
  10. I've come back to the fuzzmo after a fair few years, seriously excellent fuzz that does heaps. Think you might regret selling it mate. Glwts
  11. No issues. Any questions, please let me know. Shipping available.

  13. Vanderkley 112EXT for Sale. 300 watts 1 x 12" speaker 8 ohms with Roqsolid cover. Great punchy sound and in very good condition. Collection only from Guildford area.
  14. Life In The Air Age - Be Bop Deluxe
  15. Monster fuzz with loads of low end. Boxed and in good condition. Has Velcro on the bottom. £75 posted.
  16. I tried out the open mic night at Derby Market Hall. Every last Thursday of the month and this was the second one.The market hall is a magnificent Victorian building, recently reopened after a multi-million pound renovation. Every slot from 6pm until the 10pm shutdown was taken. At its peak, probably about 75 people there. The acoustics aren’t good, but no surprises there.
  17. The "AI" generated text omits the most noticeable feature, which the seller doesn't seem to have thought to add to the description.
  18. My mic was too low, you can’t hear my ‘black tie’ - the highlight of the song!
  19. It really is bizarre, in a great way. Hangers aren’t really designed for optimal sound, are they? 🤣
  20. I will the usage graph of the lifecycle of this amplifier will be a ruler flat line of inactivity til this week from its birth ,….to a sudden exponential curve of use and enjoyment I can asssure you! Through the Di out the GP11 pre sounds very similar through my mixing desk to my old 1008 (8x10 ) combo DI out from 1983. I think it’s wonderful….. Thanks for your lovely comments.
  21. You know, everyone, I absolutely adore reading through this thread. Seeing how everyone goes about gigging in their different ways, with so many different bands and styles on offer; I even enjoy the reports of gig by bands who play genres that I wouldn't play myself, because there's always something to be learned. Seeing what you lot get up to at your gigs is a real highlight of my (usually) weekend, and I wish I was out there gigging again. Thanks very much for sharing your experiences with the rest of us!
  22. In good condition, works as it should. Not all leads are original, two have been replaced. £45 posted.
  23. Selling my Blackstar head only because I've finally got the amp I've always wanted an Ampeg SVT head so sadly the Blackstar has to go, it's 16 months old and used but never abused in great condition,as you can see it has the carry bag and foot switch for distortion, overdrive,fuzz, chorus etc. Collection preferably but will meet within reason or post.
