Nord Electro 4D 61 Keyboard Weighted Waterfall SW61 Superb Nord Electro keyboard - this has all the classic acoustic and electro mechanical keyboards you could wish for for live and studio performances. Rhodes and Wurlitzer electric pianos, acoustic grands and uprights Hammond, Farfisa and Vox organs. It even has Mellotron and Chamberlain samples, plus strings, harps and guitars. This version also has drawbar control. It’s a classic in its own right but still updateable using the Nord site and sample library. Included is the keyboard, user manual, mains lead, damper pedal, sample library on CD plus a nice heavily padded gig-bag. I have added a custom ‘half moon’ switch to control the rotary speaker simulation from the keyboard rather than using a foot switch like an old Hammond. If you collect in person I’ll also include a stand. The price is non-negotiable and sorry no trades. It is feasible to post but only in the UK and at your cost and risk. See pics - I’ve not gigged it but have used it in rehearsals occasionally. To be honest it’s been used at home as a piano and the other wonderful sounds have been wasted! Selling as I use my old Korg live as I’m not worried about it being knocked about and I’m going to buy a simple piano for home use.-

Your best (and worst!) bass gear purchases of 2025?
Sean replied to Al Krow's topic in General Discussion
Best? Without a shadow of doubt, it's the LFSys Monaco. It's not just a cab I like, it's changed how I think about backline and what its function is. This product changed the narrative completely for me. So many people have commented on the sound and it's not the character of the cab, because it's FRFR, it's how it disperses the sound and enables you to be heard. Yes, it's light, it's compact, it goes incredibly loud and drowns out a vigorously played drum set but it's how it does it that is the feature that makes this such a good cab. The construction of it is also top notch and beyond that of comparable UK boutique builders. I absolutely love these cabs and they've changed the whole gigging experience for me. Ive got 2 and together, one horizontal and one vertical it's like another dimension as @stevie demonstrated at the SE Bash recently. Worst? Nothing, really. If there was, it would have been returned. -
Ive managed to find a guitar box, so delivery is now an option -
Why are venue house bass amps always such utter sh#te?
ASW replied to Paddy Morris's topic in Amps and Cabs
My festival experience this year has been different. I've played a few festivals and venues with its own back line and it's all been quite good. There was an Aguilar Tone Hammer and 4 x 10 at one festival. I liked the amp enough to buy one myself! I always carry a small pedal board with an Origin Effects Bass Rig so can DI from there if necessary. I'm sure that every gig I've played this year, we got a list of the back line and if we didn't we asked for it, so we knew what would be there to use. This enables us to ascertain whether the back line is suitable and can negotiate beforehand if we feel we needed to use our own equipment (we didn't). Admittedly, it doesn't help if the equipment doesn't work though, but still worthwhile. There will always be outliers, such as the time I played a gig years ago and their "bass amp" was some child's practice amp from the 80s with a blown 8" speaker. No proper foldback either so I couldn't hear anything I was playing and taking a preamp pedal would not have helped. That was before I learned to find out what the back line was! -
I’d say an end pin is under the ruling of a bass stand. Just checked my messages and last bass I bought was 2023! Unfortunately it’s not through lack of GAS though, so you must have a disease 😂

Behringer bass v-amp pro rack mounted multi-effect unit.
basstone posted a topic in Effects For Sale
Very clean Behringer bass v-amp pro rack mounted effects unit. It has loads of amp and cab simulations as well as effects and built in tuner. I just don't ever use it these days so here it is! Postage would be about £8 royal mail second class. -
Love my John Taylor 5 in black. The Neve preamp is super sounding and the passive tone control is full of goodness. Such a great bass!! -
A bit of modification on my stingray5, changed the pickguard and made a control plate out of an old standard 5 pickguard

So true. . . .

I understand your curiosity ! but I'd rather not do it myself since the ramp seems to be securely attached to the body. I mean I don't think there's any problem removing it but perhaps during a routine visit to a luthier ? Thanks for your comment! -

Because most of my cabs never get truly finished I've a lot of loose wires in many cabs, and vibrating wires do happen but not often. I usually fix one end to the speaker itself with cable ties leaving enough slack to avoid stressing the connections but tight enough not to flap around. I bury the other end under any wadding and that stops that moving. I don't leave a lot of slack though, just enough to be able to remove the drive unit easily

Yeah they’re lovely bodies, let me know if you want me to send it down 😉 -
Me too.

I came up with the same number as you did, none. -

yes it certainly sounds like the preferred option, thanks very much for all the responses. a combination of a curved body, a belly carve and a front carve like the mk1 should work well

I admire what you are suggesting. However, the thread is into many pages now and as we know people do not read through all the posts and many have a short memory. This was always going to happen with a thread like this, so just roll with it. -

Youre in the right place, just wrong picture / details. Also add a note in any new pics to show your username and the current date (forum rules) -
Thanks for sharing that. Be interesting to see what Behringer are going to be retailing these for? Hopefully will put these within reach of many more musos given that the original Lovetone Meatball typically sells for around £750 used!
