  1. Past hour
  2. Definitely US. This came from a parts bass made by a Sadowsky employee. No real markings on it to identify as such. The pickups were scrubbed out and headstock left blank for fear of repercussions. I still have the neck - Brazillian rosewood fingerboard, Graphtech nut, Schaller tuners.
  3. I remember these! I don't think they were made for long. They were a beautiful, elegant design. Never seen one in the flesh but I remember Bass Player Magazine featured one, must have been sometime in the early '90's and they always looked lush to me. Didn't they have a piezo pickup in the bridge? I bet this is a beast of a bass. God knows what it would cost if it were made today.
  4. Despite changing to a Line6 Pod GO recently, I have no intention of selling my MX81 yet. It's such a great pedal.
  5. This is a really good preamp pedal! Good luck selling it!
  6. Excellent. Out of interest, is it the NS Dimension 5 you have? If you ever fancied moving it on I'd be interested...
  7. Yamaha MG10XU mixer with mounting bracket for attaching to mic stand (see photo). Barely used. Original box. No trades thanks. Price includes shipping to locations within the UK. I took the photos myself and I am blind, so my apologies if they look like they were taken by a drunk person.
  8. I definitely had a Peavey bass when I was younger but cannot for the life of me remember what it was or even what it looked like. 🤔 I have a 1991 foundation fretless that I currently have up for sale but I always, always wanted a TL5. I stopped looking a few years back as I didn't want to go out of my way to finally find one, only to be disappointed that it wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be. Same goes for the Yamaha BB5000.
  9. Thankfully well out of my price range, even their more "affordable" offerings.
  10. Set of rack mount bars for a GK RB amp. I haven’t owned a GK amp for several years but they would have come off of either a 1001RB II or a 700RB III as I owned both. The bars are complete with all parts including screws. No trades thanks. Price includes shipping to locations within the UK. I took the photos myself and I am blind, so my apologies if they look like they were taken by a drunk person.

  11. Are you sure Mr C, I mean I know how phenomenal it sounds through a Barefaced SuperTwin
  12. It's a good photo - it shows all the kit. And it's a lot of kit for the money! There is a whole thread on buying electric pianos here https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/520144-stage-pianos/page/3/ so there seems to be interest in such instruments on Basschat.
  13. Sorry for my ignorance but what is a Frtlyzer system?

  16. For sale, excellent condition. TWA Krytical Mass. Brassmaster style Fuzz with more than most! Huge sounding with plenty on tap. More tonal variations than other Brassmaster fuzzes in the market. Huge low end and gain on tap, all important clean blend and various 2 lpf's and a hpf for tones, choice of 3 position mids. Edge to add in some top end, bias to get those sputtering synth like sounds, phase inverter to take some low end out if gets too boomy, this can go loud! Web schpiel: Prepare for meltdown with the TWA KM-01 Krytical Mass®! Based on the coveted Maestro Bass Brassmaster, Krytical Mass® was born from exhaustive critical analysis into the inner workings of that Holy Grail device and the few noble attempts that have been made to clone it. Krytical Mass® spits out fat, formidable fuzz with a pronounced octave up as well as a more subtle octave down and a scorching, filter-like sweep on sustained notes. Muted notes will “kill” the fuzz with almost gate-like precision, yielding a super-tight, synth-like pulse that is simply addictive to play. Where other replicas tend to be harsh and sterile sounding, Krytical Mass® is able to capture the aggressive yet warm & organic edge of the original Brassmaster using a unique complement of EQ and voltage manipulation controls. One of the great mysteries of the Brassmaster is its unmarked transformer and how it was wound. Analysis suggests that this component may have actually been wired with negative polarity, so Krytical Mass® includes a switch to toggle between positive & negative phase wirings for additional tonal options. Another unique feature of Krytical Mass® is the ability to adjust the symmetry of the transformer to taste, accentuating either 2nd order harmonics for more lows or higher-order harmonics for more complex waveform content. Also on board are selectable HP, LP and BP filters with adjustable midrange to fine-tune Krytical Mass® to your particular tonal tastes. Fuzz sensitivity of Krytical Mass® can also be controlled via external EXP pedal for dynamic manipulation of the fuzz to create synth-like drive swells and other interesting effects.

  24. I've had a few Peavy basses over the last 35 or so years, all have been solid even the budget lowend stuff held it's ground and played/sounded good I bought this Peavey Bromberg B-Quad (from this very forum) many moons ago....here it is after i made a ramp for it a while back.. the PCB had a fault when i got it (seller was upfront about the issue) where it would drain the battery even without the jack in, It took a while (like 8 months) but Peavey spares UK managed to find me a PCB from somewhere...(USA department didn't have any) after that i took it to many places to try to get someone to change it out but after they took a look a the wiring/soldering job they wouldn't touch it with a barge pole!.....so it went back in the case for a good 5 years un-played......Till i meet a guy on a training course who claimed to have been a PCB design engineer for various companies inc Laney...i told him about the bass/PCB issue and he said well bring it down and i'll do it for you no problem....next day at lunch, 20 mins later he'd swapped it all out and it was totally fixed! he then took the Old PCB home and fixed that too ! (it's in the case pocket as a backup) & he wouldn't even take any payment, so i bought him a bottle of brandy and some cigs...he's admitted vices. Lets just say the B Quad is not a very Polite bass but you can get pretty much any "modern" tone out of and the slap/tap it bell clear unlike any other bass i've ever played/owned (after all brian bromberg designed it to be this way as he's a bit of a slapper/tapper (even if it all feel apart with peavey after they released it) I've come close to selling it a few times as i mainly play 5's now but as soon as i pick it up i quickly reconsider, also if it went i doubt id find a 2nd to replace it as they are rockhorseshit rare atm it seems, it's been years since i saw another up for sale and I've never seen a 5 this side of the pond.
