Probably something similar to what your lad will say when he tries to find Am. Or more like OFH!!!! -
You have a point.

Bought this ‘Italian Jazz’ as it looks & sounds (and could be proper decent) as a cheapie project, with a bit of attention. Got something I prefer coming in soon and can’t keep both (damn I shoulda been patient) so shifting at a loss. Sounds great but has a few obvious things. *Body in great condition. Not sure of the weight but I would say it’s not one of those ‘hernia’ things. Just right in my opinion. *Pickups sound great. Proper jazz bass vibe, Jaco, slap etc… *Original tuners and bridge were dreadful so changed to solid/reliable units. * Neck in good condition but upper frets could do with a dress as a bit of buzz going on. * No case and I’ll include the original pickup and bridge covers. (Vintage looking things) Collection from Aylesbury or postage at cost. -
I was happy with GK gear when Markbass started to become popular. Never had any issues with the GK , if I had I probably would have bought in. When I finally changed from GK , the Markbass heyday had passed and I got a great deal on a GB StreamLiner.

Pathetic. Who are they trying to convince? -

Welcome BassKees !

Very glad you live in Essex as I have no need for a Thunderbird but have always liked them. If you lived nearby I could not resist at this price. -

OMG! -
I'm assuming you're talking about a jack with three lugs? If that's the case then you need to swap the two black wires around.

Frets in and new fret-ends being filed: So, with that done we have all the frets now ready for levelling, re-crowning and polishing. Oh, goodness...HOW many frets???????

As Italian i bought one of the first s450,the silver one about 20 years ago.And by then i had other varius cab and head.For my taste the cabs are too boomy and I don’t like their tw but i have to say that I use cabs without tw and non ported,so very different in sonic goals I found they products very reliable and with a good price vs the Usa Made amps,but with the same quality if you like the sound Markbass made great gear

Since I bought my US G&L Fallout this Mexican made Mustang PJ has been unplayed. It’s a lovely bass in near new condition. As you can see it has been upgraded with a Hi-Mass brass saddle bridge and tort guard. The heavier bridge helps the bass balance when on a strap as it is very light. It’s a special edition in canary yellow and yes I also have the original white scratchplate that I will include. I bought it a few months ago from my local music shop and it plays and sounds great. It’s around 3.7kgs in weight. There is no case or bag so pickup preferred. Postage in UK at buyer’s cost. PS if you want it with the original guard and bridge I will reduce the price to £450. -

Not had chance to try them (aside from 5 mins with the Black Math on guitar) but very excited to completely rebuild my board again to accommodate these beauties 🙌

Hoping someone can help, I replaced the neutrik jack plug on my ibanez btb recently. Being lazy, I took a wire off at a time and replaced it on the new one without checking... guessing they changed the pin layout 🤣, the bass works but is constantly live so the batteries drain. I have a feeling I have the ground and the tip the wrong way round. Can anyone confirm if it would still make noise if this was the case? Also, if anyone has a wiring diagram for an ibanez btb 1205e with the bartolini pickups and preamp at all they could share I'd really appreciate it!

MarkBass has been a bit hit and miss for me over the years. I had a LM3 and 2x NY112 cabs and I really didn't gel with it. I was playing 50's Rock n Roll and I found it to be a bit lifeless, sterile and uninspiring. I quickly moved it all on and got an Ampeg Pf500 and Barefaced Two10 which was way more dynamic. I now have a LM IV which I really like and sounds very good through the Barefaced Two10. This is for fretless and a lot more melodic type of playing. I've not tried any of the new cabs or even the old Traveller cabs but I've not heard anything bad about them.

Is that Rishi when he was so poor he had to give up trouser legs to buy Sky TV? -
Pfft, "hate". It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. Trust your own ears. If you like Markbass, you're not wrong. If you don't like them, you're not wrong. FWIW, my rig is a Mini CMD 121P IV on top of a New York 121 and I enjoy it very much - not only the sound but the modularity, the compactness, relative light weight and the fact that both of my "tone cubes" fit in the back of my wee Mitsubishi Colt (just).

Now for sale bump -
The sensitivity difference between a fifteen two meters or so off the ground and two meters or more away from the rear wall compared to on the ground close to the wall is at least 6dB, usually more. That's the equivalent of doubling the cab count. -
Due to me not running bands anymore, I'm shifting a load of my personal PA gear. All my stuff is currently in storage but will be pulling it out to photograph and update the posts. Now with PICS! You probably know what this is if you are looking at this advert, here's the details - https://dbxpro.com/en/products/afs2 Spent most of its life racked and comes into its own for those troublesome venues. As good as new, like pretty much all my kit. (You can see it has no rack rash even - if you are interested in the switch too... make me an offer... have a matched pair! Note rack bag not included.) Check out my other listings for PA stuff. -
This isn't sold. One of the pair has sold. One complete setup is still available.
