Fender / Sunn SR8520P powered mixer: 8 balanced mic inputs (with switchable phantom power) / 8 line inputs 1 stereo aux line input built in reverb and monitor channel (line output) 9 band graphic eq Compressor / limiter on main output Rated at 520W into 2 ohms In good working condition, recently serviced and PAT tested. A good workhorse ideal for a rehearsal room or for small gigs. -
Looks like a home constructed cab fitted with 4 8" big cat speakers (believed to be made for Maplin by Eminence). 8 ohms impedance and probably rated at 100 to 200W. In good condition with heavy duty plastic corners and folding handles on the side. Not particularly heavy for such a big cab. Single TS jack on the back. I'm open to offers. -
Sounds good to me, what's the instrument and pickups?

Cort pickups are usually quite good but I think a quality pre like a glockenklang and set the neck as flat as you can should bring the rasp and growl when digging in.

That’s either some busy double bass playing or a hell of a long gig? Or Jazz 😀

I have a copy which was originally an 8-string, but is now a 4. They're the best basses money can buy. -
Nor on mine 🤷🏻♂️ -
Passing through Norway on Sunday for a week if anyone that side of the world is interested. (Same is true for the Serek I guess but I think I know which is the keeper) -
I spoke to the lad and he said it's way above his capabilities and wouldn't get used properly, so it should go to a better home. @songofthewind

You will struggle to find a better value cab! 4x300W (1200W) 8 Ohms Roughly 25kg Size - 600x410x630mm Loaded with 4x eminence drivers (see pics for details). Marine ply construction. Open to sensible offers. Trade wise, I am interested in a clean boost pedal such as a rodenberg 707b or darkglass harmonic booster, or a line 6 helix stomp / stomp xl (assuming I have cash to add at the time...), but hey, try me. Located in Bedford, MK42 9UR. May be able to meet up somewhere or deliver for fuel money..but let's have that discussion first. Thanks! - Today

They were just right volume-wise for me, no after effects at all luckily as I had left my earplugs in the car. They really are very good, I was impressed!

I use a Mono Sleeve guitar case for my Mustang and it works great. Not the cheapest case, but it is great for most short scale basses. I kind of wish I bought the Mono m80 instead as it is a bit more sturdy so that would be my recommendation.

Sadowsky Metro Express RV4 (Made In Japan) 2019
MNY replied to Tomalomlom's topic in Basses For Sale
They are marvelous basses. The main difference between the Metro Line and Express, was in the manufacture. The Metro Line was built by Sadowsky Japan when it existed, the Express was made by a different factory to Sadowsky’s spec. I heard it said that the builder could have been Atelier Z or ESP, either way they both make incredible instruments and it looks like yours is no exception. GLWTS. -

Looks like they incorporated the pickups into their guitar website: https://www.eternal-guitars.com/copy-of-p90 -

Hartke HA5500 - as good as any amp I've owned Ashdown ABM 600 - on par with the Hartke Trace Elliott Elf - I love this amp, plug in with EQ set at noon and you're good to go. Plenty of volume too when paired with the right cab The best sounding amp I've heard live is an svt. I have had limited playing time with one, but I was a bit underwhelmed when using one. Probably a bit of a learning curve when you're not used to tube power sections

How about the presence knob on the Sansamp bass driver? Or the behringer bddi if you're on a budget. Sounds like it might do a similar thing.

ESP LTD Deluxe Phoenix-1004, pretty much mint condition
pajhartley posted a topic in Basses For Sale
Up for sale my immaculate ESP LTD Deluxe Phoenix-1004, bought new by me about a year ago. Selling only as I've got a Fender Precision Troy Sanders which caters for my metal needs! There really isn't a mark that I can see on this, it's just about mint apart from the additional strap button I've added on the top horn to aid balance. Sounds absolutely immense with its EMGs, very nice to play with a very fast matt neck. I'll include the strap as it's a really long one just for this bass. Schaller straplocks included. No case at all. Pick up from Bath, or I'm often up in Hertfordshire & am willing to deliver anywhere between the two, and as I like driving I'll deliver within 100 miles of Bath for free. I won't post unless I have absolutely no option, & I won't send overseas. Feel free to pop round & try it, I'm about a mile outside central Bath. -
This is one of the reasons I have stuck with ICEPower for all of my designs. There were many Asian vendors that made great promises yet every one of them had significant questionable elements with their offerings. Ultimately it made more sense to pay a premium price for a premium product.

Picking a bass to play is the same level of decision to me as picking which shirt to wear. I don't chase tones, I don't feel like I have to play bass X for any particular reason other than I want to. I like how all my basses sound and feel, so what is there left to debate beyond the visual? I enjoy the variety, it's not about having a collection for the sake of having it. In all my bass playing time I have owned 58 basses and sold 49. It's fun, I'm having fun. I'm starting to get a judgy feel about this thread. If you believe in having only one good bass, or pay meticulous attention to the minutiae of bass tone then more power to you, you're not wrong. But neither am I. I'd like to bass the way I want to bass, and you're free to do same. -
The former. Spending more doesn't necessarily give you more, and the law of diminishing returns of price against quality is pretty low IMO - around £300-500 being the sweet spot - because of cheap labour and CNCs. Basses are simple modular things. The only practical advantage of buying one pricier bass rather than several lower priced basses is that of choice for if you have absolute specific requirements for a particular model, for whatever reason. Ideally I would prefer a more middle ground of 3 or 4 basses because it's highly unlikely that I would ever want to have only 1 expensive bass. Tastes change, situations change, requirements change. - Yesterday

In the days before internet forums I had no idea that Rickenbacker basses had a questionable reputation for quality. I have wanted a Rickenbacker since before I played bass. In fact, one of the reasons I started playing was so I had a reason to get a Jetglo Rickenbacker. Still never had one though,due to the fact every time I pick one up I'm reminded of the multiple reasons why I can't play them. -
Funnily enough, I'm in the market for a relatively inexpensive bass at the moment. Even funnier than that though, is that all the ones I want turn out to be out of stock and currently unavailable. I've already got a Harley Benton, by the way, and for the money it cost it's been terrific value considering the fun I've had playing it. I'm definitely not knocking less expensive basses, just questioning the aspiration to collect them for the sake of having a collection. Versatility is one of the most overrated qualities in a musician. Most of the greats have developed a unique style because they use their limitations creatively. Most of the best famous players have a signature sound, rather than a plethora of tones for different situations.
