  1. Past hour
  2. Hi all! Here we have my Markbass Pure 2x10 cab. Purchased from new from Thomann in August 2023. 400w power handling 2x10 speakers Hi-Fi 'pure' tweeter - this is a bit snappier than the tweeter in the energy series. A scarcely believable 10.5kg in weight, which is the reason I purchased it. It's an easy one hand lift and a saviour for those of us with dodgy backs. Has that typical Markbass sound - fat, detailed with a very clear midrange. I've used this with my Little Mark IV and probably got the best live tone I've ever had from a cab. Easily loud enough for most venues up to mid-size. Selling because I'm moving over to DI through PA and a smaller (and far less fun) monitor. More or less unmarked and as new aside from some slight foot marks where my Little Mark sat on the carpet lining on top. Collection from Moreton in Marsh, or will drive a fairly sizeable distance for handover/meet up, as my feedback attests. No offers please. Any further questions, please ask! Thanks for looking! Simon
  3. Yours is a newer one, takes care of the A.. I put one on an Arai Jazz And Similar...
  4. Quite a change from a high end bass to a simple J.
  5. Wonderfulness my back says no though (very much at the stage where my body and I disagree on most things) Glwts, classic
  6. Good shout, I'll take a look! Thank you!
  7. I recently bought a Broughton Subsonic and Buffer Bandwidth Amplifier from Mike. The communication was great, and the pedals arrived quickly and were as described/pictured. I can't fault the transaction at all. Thanks!
  8. I think you’re right. I had a 76 Precision which had an accident and took off part of the front part of the headstock. It split along the grain and was easily stuck back. But supposing this happened on a tour ( the schedules back then were torturous) no opportunity to get it to a luthier or even get to a shop for some wood glue. May also explain why he switched to the Gibson bass or that might have just been following the fashion for semis in the 60s.
  9. Decided to go a bit stupid with some upgrades. Anyone able to hazard a guess as to which hipshot tuners would be the easiest replacements? Im looking at the technical drawings but im about as technically minded as a rock
  10. Several bands and solo artists last Sunday, at Tredegar house folk festival. Ending the night, was the brilliant Steve Knightly. TFF is a small festival, with lots of free acts and world / folk dancing troupes - which is always entertaining. You can spend 3 days watching/ listening to mostly unknown artists for free. There's a good CAMRA real ale & cider bar, and a small selection of festival type food. On the Saturday & Sunday, there was also an arts, crafts & food market, which was probably around 30 stalls. Having seen Steve with Show of Hands as a duo, trio and 4 piece, he's also really good as a solo act. Very entertaining, even when he had some real tuning problems with his guitar. As usual he played 4 or 5 instruments. He did a great, slow version of the Waterboys "Fisherman's Blues"
  11. First one I looked at does 😃 https://reverb.com/uk/item/87116534-1964-fender-precision-bass-pre-cbs-vintage-bass-sherwood-green-riggio-w-paperwork-case
  12. Check by yourself, there are plenty examples and I even had great difficulties finding one with four stepped tuners in line.
  13. I'd agree with all the above, except G4M's base offerings. I've had several pupils turn up with them, and the bodies usually weigh so much that they generate their own gravity & I end up spending about half an hour setting them up to make them even half playable. Not recommended.
  14. I noticed that @PaulThePlug ‘s HB50 had a Fender style string tree. Indeed so does the stock picture on Thomann’s website. Mine looks like this.
  15. Oh yes - definitely this...
  16. No it's still available!
  17. I run 2 One10's on small gigs with an Aguilar TH500 or AG700, and they sound much better than the One10 in this clip.
  18. Mixed sets? Got any examples?
  19. Well spotted , I’ve been looking and it appears that they stopped using the stepped one in late 65
  20. Pooch It - Salt'n'Peppa
  21. Dogs Like Socks - Psychostick
  22. This is one of those ironing board 15-strings, isn't it, not the next step up from a 12-string (a 5-string with two octave strings per base string). I'd take off the middle string, defret the treble half of the fretboard, and have a seven-string fretted alongside a seven-string fretless (B-F), like a bionic Ashula, then I'd never touch it again.
  23. I'm sure the android app does too, but that doesn't really help me as I use my PC for learning songs.
  24. I Love My Dog - Cat Stevens
  25. The amp I told myself I'd never sell, but my tastes have changed a little and I don't really have the need for this now. It's just a stunningly powerful amp where every note sounds big and authoritative. Includes Gator 3U rack case. Collection only or I can meet if out and about on my way to gigs, depending on your location.
