  1. Past hour
  2. I should point out that the tweed cable above is no longer stocked so is a special order. It makes a nice cable when made but is is no fun to work
  3. Yes, it looks like any negative comments have been removed. Shame.
  4. For anyone who may be wondering whether this amp is loud enough to gig with, I'm going to say... probably not! But without a drum kit, maybe.
  5. Education, education, education... maybe 'The Showcase Hull' needs some? TBH he only gets away with these scams as folk just don't know about him, if his name and the 'facts' about him are spread wide enough, he'll find it harder and harder.
  6. They’ll have their hands full if we all keep commenting
  7. Imbalance between strings can come from string to pickup distance or pickups themselves. Noise can be from anywhere.
  8. This could very well be a very dumb question, but how do you know if a defiency in the sound of a bass is due to the pickups or the preamp? I've read many discussions of cheap basses where people state with certainty that either the pickups or the preamp (or both) need replacing. What are the tell tale signs of either?
  9. @shug I will be beating a path to one of your gigs to hear it if you get one. Keep me posted, you have my number.
  10. I have a couple of old Wem Westminster amps and love them for bass. I saw Richard Hawley on the Coles Corner tour last night and he was using both a Dominator and an earlier Watkins Westminster (with onboard tremolo) on stage. Sounded great. These amps are very capable and last for ever!
  11. Basschat first got interested in these over 10 years ago - I blame @Clarky It was that thread that led to me ordering a matching Crazy 88 from Guy Trigg (who seems to be no longer a Member here): https://www.facebook.com/trickyaudio/?locale=en_GB He was/is building them under licence from Greenboy in the USA: https://www.greenboy.us/ https://www.greenboy.us/cabs/view.php?model=Crazy88 Just to confirm those dimensions in metric: H 57cm x W 27cm x D 35cm, Weight 12.5Kg The cab is 4 Ohms.
  12. This cab isn't just for DB but it's enough of a boutique DB item that it's worth posting the link to the sale thread here too.
  13. Gregor form BassTheWorld is a big fan!
  14. Oscar Schmidt by Washburn Guitars. https://www.oscarschmidt.com/instrument-type/autoharps/ 😎
  15. I should also probably have mentioned that it comes with the GB Shuttle 4-button footswitch. And the soft cover.
  16. That's a great sound!
  17. I don’t know about you, but I’m enjoying the descriptions as much as the fascinating collection…
  18. I should probably have mentioned that it comes with the original Owner's Manual.
  19. Very little used since Covid, time to move it on. Comes with all the little bits of cabling etc. Condition is as near pristine as you're likely to find. Full specs are here: https://philjonesbass.net/cms/product-ha-1/

  20. My eye (yes, I have two. Don't worry...) was caught by the cool looking lever at the top of the bridge - does this amazingly manly bass have a lever that deploys the string mutes? Bet MusicMan wish they'd thought of that before adding those fiddly tiny metal round screws under the bridges of Classic Stingrays. Seriously impressed by the intonation calibration markings on the bridge as well. If Bang & Olufsen made basses, they would make basses like this.
  21. Hi, We are building new composite DB's from improved Bassix tooling and are looking for information on where to locate necks for them from?
  22. Open to sensible offers. I'd much prefer a straight sale but I can always be tempted but the right trade!
