  2. Hi Folks, Echoing all the uber-positive feedback above for David, aka, @MungoBass, who I've just bought an Hughes and Kettner Red 5 DI/cab simulator 'thingamajig' from... .. To be honest, I've no idea what it does, or how to use it, but it's exactly as described and it looks really cool... ๐Ÿ˜† Anyway, back on topic, David's a great person to deal with, super-quick delivery and good comms throughout.. All in all, s credit to the Basschat community! And yes, this InPost thing is really good isn't it @Owen.... ๐Ÿ˜ Anyway, thanks again David and all the best for now! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜Š Nik
  3. Lovely Fender Squier Bronco Bass in rare lime green finish. Bought direct from Fender as I could not find the colour anywhere else. The bass has been upgraded by fitting a Warman bass humbucker in place of the standard single coil pickup which sounded a bit thin. This has transformed the sound of the bass which now sounds like a Fender should. Also fitted is a Hi Mass bridge and a cheeky fender logo. It is in great condition and looks great with the Lime green and Maple neck. Complete with a Marcus Miller deluxe padded gigbag which is a perfect size and fit. Will come with original strap buttons and the original bridge and pickup. I gigged it once and it delivered on playability and sound as well as looking the part. Appreciate it's not for everyone but it is a great instrument and well worth the asking. UK shipping for ยฃ15
  4. That's the biggest 2.5GHz wireless transmitter I've seen.
  5. Hi everyone. Ive had my BB1100 for a little while and it plays really nicely but I can't seem to get pickup height right. I do tend to dig in quite hard whether playing with a pick or fingers and im getting pops and cracks as if the strings are touching the pickup poles. Is it normal to need to set the pickups quite low? Ive got about 3mm between strings and pickups at the moment.
  6. I've had both the Fishman Platinum EQ and now use EBS. Both are great pieces of kit (especially as a high impedance input for EUB piezo pickups). The EBS won't "sound better" but is a more versatile tool if you need to blend 2 inputs or switch between two inputs with full separate EQ filters etc. If I had EUB with piezo pickup, I'd save the money and get the Fishman. But as soon as I'm looking it microphones, multi-input blending or multi-instrument switching, then I'd pay the extra for the EBS every time.

  8. Thank you buddy, very much appreciated ๐Ÿ™‚
  9. Good spot, will amend the post! Yup, made on the same line as the Fender Japan basses as I understand it
  10. Best preamp I've ever used. The sound I've had in my head ever since I started playing. Would buy it again if I could!
  11. I was actually just thinking that I would like to try a DCX with my Origin SV ๐Ÿค” If I can shift some gear then I will be in touch!
  12. Ashdown CL-310-DH in good condition with some scars/tears to the Tolex covering from normal gig use. Surprisingly easy to shift about given it has two built in wheels at the rear and an inbuilt grab handle (had to use some older photos from when I bought it and a stock photo to show the rear as it lives in storage since I moved house last Oct). Born of an idea by Guy Pratt, who uses two, here's the Ashdown info on it... "Inspired by classic PA cabinets, the CL-310-DH delivers 450 watts at 8 Ohms with a unique dual-chamber design: one 10" driver for punchy focused mids and two rear-ported 10" speakers for extended low-end rumble. Dual 3-way adjustable horns add clarity and articulation, heavy-duty wheels, grab handles, Bronco Tolex and a vintage red grill cloth." Here are the Ashdown specs... Power Handling: 450 Watts Impedance: 8 Ohms, Neutrik speaker connections Speakers: 3x10โ€ (dual-chamber design), 1x sealed driver โ†’ punchy, focused mids, 2x rear-ported drivers โ†’ extended low-end rumble Horns: Dual 3-way adjustable HF horns (High / Low / Off) Dimensions: H: 990mm, W: 349mm, D: 324mm Weight: 25.6kg Obviously, it'd need collecting, but happy to do a halfway meet for a few quid petrol money if not too far and a reasonable distance.

  13. Doesn't like like Fender. What bass is it? What is the logo/text on the headstock? any other clues?
  14. Possibly for comedy value?

  20. Hey Lozz, is this chromed or plain nickel? it's not easy to see from the pics - well, my ageing eyes are struggling anyway ๐Ÿ˜‚
  21. Hi Guys, Anyone recognise these neck & pocket markings please?
  22. Is the finish original? It's aged beautifully
  23. Unfortunately it fits perfectly, therefore I'll have to give this one a miss.
  24. Thanks Paddy, I didnt know that as it was originally posted on basses for sale...
  25. I got this in a trade from Drew as I wanted to dip my feet into the world of an upright bass, alas my arthritic left had struggled with it hence the sale But it was a bit of fun while it lasted, I am borrowing @drewk_ie original listing Price to include postage to the UK
  26. Owned from new for around 12yrs, I bought this from Thomann and had it set up for Rockabilly. It definitely feels a step up from the entry level basses and I have used it live a lot. Most of its life has been more of feature in my living room though. The last couple of years I have been coming to terms with the fact that I need to sell it. Space is at a premium, it rarely gets used and I am of an age where the EUB seems the easier option. The specs are here Thomann link if anyone is interested. I added a pickup which has been useful - a David Gage Realist. People often call it a copper head. Theyโ€™re industry standard and normally about ยฃ120 used. Mine is included with the bass at no extra cost to you. There is a tatty (by my high standards) gig bag and the strings are currently Gut-A-Like vintage ones Gut A Like strings Youโ€™ll see I added a few stickers. These should be fairly easy to remove. Iโ€™m happy to do it, or I can leave it. Equally I am happy to add more pictures. Itโ€™s currently lent against the wall in my place in Hungerford, where I am Sunday to Thursday evenings. Postage looks too hard to do so it would be a collection. I have gotten it in a Peugeot 107 before - not comfortably, so perhaps donโ€™t bring the family if collecting!
