Fits a 2EQ or 3EQ Stingray with truss rod wheel, so approx 1990-2018. Made by the people in California that produced the original EBMM matte black pickguards back in the 90s / 00’s, this is one I custom ordered a few years ago. But my bass is now HH so I have a similar replacement. It’s got some scratches, as pictured, but you don’t want a shiny new pickguard on your 30 year old instrument right? 😊 £40 collected, or I can post via Royal Mail at cost.

Messy or not, what's on your (music) work desk right now?

Quite enjoyed checking these out 😊 Mine’s really simple. Under the desk is my headphones bass practice pedalboard, guitar pedalboard,and MacBook and Scarlett which i record stuff just for fun using headphones. -
Probably not. I hereby declare myself ineligible for any and all prize money, gifts, or even the vacation in Aruba😟

I've heard of worse things than counterfeit guitars/amps from people in the trade about the Harrisons, but it's all anecdotal and you have to wonder how reliable these people are themselves. At the same time, I'm guessing that most Serbian gangsters would want more from a working relationship than a percentage of the proceeds of a stolen guitar, so perhaps there's something to it.

Marvin started following NAD: Bugera Veyron 1001M
-
Due to my other amp dying I had to get an amp for last night's gig. I got the Bugera delivered on Thursday, so no time to try it out with the band. Set it up at the pub we played at, Sire V7 with a Fender 210 cab. All 4 of us in the band just went "that sounds good". Great clean tone with barely any adjustments. So easy to use out of the box. It's light and feels very well put together. The sockets feel firm, especially the speaker cable connection. On my Peavey the speaker socket was always a bit awkward to get the connector to twist. The control knobs feel a little less robust, but not awful. It doesn't come with a carry bag, but for an amp that costs just £230 it's really no problem. I've commandeered a laptop bag. The onboard dual band compressor sounds better than my cheap pedal. There are plenty of tonal options with the eq section. I especially like the midrange selector. The DI seems really good. FX loop connection. Headphone and aux in. Very impressed.

Pea Turgh started following NCD - 1970’s August 2x12 cab
-
Just picked up a 2x12 from a nice chap on Freecycle. He owned it for 50 years. Guessing It’s not for bass, but the square-back magnets made me think of Ampeg B15s! Googling yields no results. Will pop the back off to see if there’s any information on the drivers, but anyone know anything about these cabs?

Wow, deja vu all over again. . . . I gigged a Mesa Boogie 400+ (then an Ampeg SVT 3 PRO) into a Road Ready 210EV and Road Ready 115EV for many years. What a great sound. Then my back gave out and I've been hurting ever since!! I have mixed feelings about that rig, but I miss that sound. -

I love the look of those speaker cabs. Is that how they came from the factory, or have they been 'ruggedised' ? -
A good usable mixing desk for small bands. Bought used and comes with a power supply Can collect or will post at cost The blurb The Yamaha MG102c 10-channel compact mixer puts big-mixer quality into a handy and affordable small format! Many real-world mixing applications only involve a few channels, so a small mixer is the obvious choice. But no matter how simple the setup, you'll always want first-rate audio quality and processing capability. The MG102c is ideal for live sound applications, offering excellent sound quality, flexibility, and ease-of-use, along with some advanced features you normally wouldn't find in this type of compact mixer. So whether you need a compact main mixer, or a secondary utility mixer for a larger application, the MG102c is a great choice. It features great sounding low noise mic pre’s with phantom power, and very musical 3 band EQ, plus stereo inputs, Aux send/return and LED bargraph metering. This unit is in perfect condition, fully operational, with PSU and original packaging. Only used in a smoke free, private studio, never gigged. The Yamaha MG102C is a very lightweight compact mixer with simple controls. The Yamaha MG102C features four mic/line channels (two with compression) and two stereo line channels, one auxiliary send, and basic channel EQ.

Fender(ish) PJ with Jazz neck for £2k max - what would you go for?
chris_b replied to DF Shortscale's topic in Bass Guitars
I'd look in the Basschat classifieds for a good used Sadowsky, and other FSO's. -
Sorry, I meant the load resistor, and a switch (in the jack) that chooses between the resistor load and the cab. But as you use Speakons, that's not an option. Your amp will not only sound good, but looks good, too.

Cor! Some absolutely gorgous basses there! Those two 4-strings are very similar to mine, I think my one's just a lot more beat-up but does have the original 80s mute bridge. How much is it worth? I don't know. I don't think it's collectible as it's post-EB and doesn't have the original case etc. I have to admit the idea of selling it with the option of selling / or swapping with the option of getting it back in the future really appeals. The only bass I've played in the past few years in a store that I had proper lust for was a Singray 5 string fretless. Oh. My. Days. That thing sang and thought it was really REALLY hard to play (I'm not experienced with a fretless) it sounded incredible with rounds on it. If I'd had £1800 in my pocket when I was in The Bass Gallery, I may have walked out with that thing! BTW here's pics of my 'ray https://imgur.com/a/d3nNSXx And a video https://imgur.com/a/yEJkPwC

Joebethell started following Ashdown ABM600 dual VU and Markbass mb58 104

Time has come to let go of this great bass rig. Had this for gigs but only got through one before the band had issues again. If I play again will be going to a power amp/modelling pedal and In ear setup as most of the places I can practice are quiet or have cabs available. Head was a purchase through Ashdown as a last chance with the warranty etc it has some dents scratches on it but all works great and is a powerful great sounding beast. I love Ashdown have had many over the years ABMs/CTMs/LBs this one is brilliant has all you expect from an ABM a professional level amp. 600w 9 band Eq Dual UV for input and output Speakon outs Foot switch option (not included) Size 135mm x 474mm x 320mm (£400 Ono collection preferably but could post at cost) Markbass MB58R 104 PURE Bass Cab 4ohm 800watt version This is a light exceptionally portable bass cab With great bass response which is surprising after you have carried it in. Has an adjustable tweeter and is just a great cab. Weight is around 16kg so an easy one person lift. Sounds great is great would keep it but is just taking up spare room space. Crossover Frequency: 3.5 Khz Frequency Response: 40hz to 20khz Sensitivity Db Spl: 103 Db Impedance: 4 Ohms Reflex: Rear 578mm x 600mm x 470mm (£500 on its own but collection only on the cab as wouldn't have a box etc) Any questions feel free to ask.
