No, as a professional musician, I'm telling you that my American Jazzes feel and sound superior. This is not to say that the Squier 40th isn't a very good Jazz. It definitely is.

Just bought a preamp from Alex, super guy to deal with, speedy postage and a very easy transaction many thanks Ian

I suppose there’s two issues: 1) they have the goods in stock but one or both are still in original packaging that they don’t want to undo. 2) what if they say it fits but the margins are tight and you argue it doesn’t upon receipt? A wasted effort for all.

polvo started following Tone knob repair question
-
Hello! I'm fixing up a second hand bass and the tone knob is not working. Can anyone help me find out whether it's a wiring issue or a faulty pot that needs replacing? I've taken some photos of the wiring, it looks correct to me but maybe I'm missing something. All the solder connections seem pretty solid. Thank you!

I've played some American Fenders that felt lifeless and dull and Squiers that were not and have owned several of each. I watched a video online earlier this year where a "gourmet" food stand was set up and was giving out free samples. Everyone actually thought they were eating gourmet food and was seemingly impressed. It was revealed to be Greggs all along.

OP was asking the shop staff to use their bass to test the case i.e. it was always on their premises. TBH I think it's a little unreasonable; you wouldn't ask someone in the M&S warehouse to try on clothes for you before you bought them. I'd probably have just bought it, tried it, and returned if it didn't fit.

**NOW £400** Glokenklang take 5 Neo 4x10 cab
Craig Robinson posted a topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
For sale/trade/swap Reduced as there is an amp listed that I'm interested in. A super clean example of these high end German made cabs, aside from a few light scuffs on the corner protectors. Neo loaded lightweight cab rated 800watts and it's the 4 ohm version with horn attenuation dial. Currently a pretty hefty price at Thomann so I think this represents real value. I took this as a trade myself but I prefer my tecamp cabs after trying several various cabs in recent months. Happy to post if necessary, I have lots of packaging. This would be up to the buyer with regards to the carrier and level of insurance. Trade/swap wise and amp (head) or bass of similar value could be of interest. Cheers Craig.-

Spotted that one on eBay, good score and looks miles better now. RE the Toneprint - I use the Spectracomp almost exclusively but also like the chorus, worth looking into as you can effectively turn it into a set and forget extra feature of your choosing. The comp'n'drive is also cool.
-
My guess is they have to protect against tyre kickers. You get a lot of those in shops. I prefer Mono M80 Vertigo bags. IMO it's a gig bag. Do your homework, find a good one, that fits, and just buy it.

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
scrumpymike replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
I think the way Vox have crashed the used market for the s-s Artist is clumsy to say the least. Owners who bought at full RRP (over £1300) or even after the first price drop (to £799) as I did are quite obviously pi55ed off that the second-hand value is now determined by the final 'refurbished as new' price of £399!! Seems to me that Vox have effectively managed to lose a significant number of repeat customers by turning what was initially a happy group of owners into a group with a grievance. I also think the change-over to standard scale length is a mistake for a brand that was traditionally associated with s-s basses. If they had got their marketing right they could have secured a big share of the now significant s-s bass market. Instead they have done what Gibson managed to do - squander the value of a 'heritage' brand name by messing with its DNA. -
In glad you’ve mentioned this, I often hear hear how there’s not much difference between a squier and US made bass, in my experience there is a big difference, I bought my nephew an affinity jazz and it felt and sounded nothing like my CS and AVRI jazzes, it was an older one and I’m sure they’ve improved since, I can’t say if the price difference is worth it because that’s up to the individual , they both do the same job but I think it’s what makes you happy and feel good playing

Thanks for this. It makes perfect sense this way. As sad as it sounds, as well as playing it, I’ll study these to see what he’s doing against a chord to try and understand it. I’ll just print it and write the chords at the top in pencil and we’re good. Appreciate it’s an improvised line!

Back from 2 days 'business' in Cologne to find the Conklin patient waiting for me upon my return! I forgot just how well made these things are... unbelievably thin neck profile, no real visible or 'feelable' difference in build quality to that of my USA Conklin (hardware, pickups, preamp, woods etc aside...)

This is subjective. On paper yes the Fender is supposed to be superior but...

I've had these a while, using them in various amps with valve preamp stages, but my move away from such amps means they are now surplus: Mullard ECC83 - code B6B3 means made in Blackburn, third week of February in either 1956, 1966 or 1976 = £50 Mullard ECC83 - (code backward3)91 means made in Chelmsford for Mullard by Marconi, but not sure how to date the rest = £50 Mullard ECC81 - no code that I can see = £25 Caveat Emptor: I have tested them in my Demeter amp and they are all working fine at time of writing, but as always with old valves be aware they can fail at any time. Please do bear that in mind before you buy.

Here we have a used but not abused Rockboard Tres 3.0 pedalboard setup that, with the addition of the power supply and patchbay, means you are set up and ready to go. No need for mains power to the board, you just charge the power supply before the gig and you can enjoy hum-free pedals all night! I've never had any issues with this setup. The battery can do a two set gig with no issue. Currently, I have left the USB cable connecting the power supply to the patchbay, so you can plug an external USB into it and charge without having to remove it. Lots of other wiring options are possible though. The carry bag is fully functional and in good overall condition, athough it has some light scuffing on the outside as you'd expect. New, all of this would have been £200, so I think £125 posted is fair. Thanks for looking EDIT: Forgot to add proof of ownership to the pictures, but hopefully pages and pages of feedback (see link in signature) will confirm I am a legit seller!

I picked this up from @Basilpea not that long ago. It's a great cab, but it isn't a cosmetic match to my other AT210, so being the fickle person I am I want to replace this... It's got some small dents from being gigged, but overall in good condition and absurdly light. You can pick it up with two fingers! It's also very loud. W52 x D33,5 x H57 cm 600 watts at 4 ohms 103dB SPL Also comes with GR Bass soft padded cover. GR say: The lightest 2×10 bass cabinet in the world. Thanks to its size, lightness, and power, the AT 210 is one of the most versatile cabinets in the entire catalog. Suitable for both small and large live shows, it allows you to always have your sound with you. With the AeroTech line, you can have the incredible innovation of our Carbon Fibre cabinets combined with the Pure Sound of GR, which is the pure sound of your instrument. Incredible sound, lightweight, power, impact resistance, and a beautiful modern design. I'm afraid this is collection only, as I don't have anything suitable to ship it in. No trades either thanks. I'm using @Basilpea's pictures, which I hope he's okay with.
