The ampeg PF50T is a lovely thing, not sure if it’s what you’re looking for but they are great for home practice and small venues, and mine is silent with no fan

Now £430! Here's my Markbass cab up for sale. It is in near new condition and includes a Roqsolid cover. The top carpet has a couple of indents where the amp was placed on it. Other than that minor sign of normal use it's as new. It has been used several times at rehearsal at very low volume levels and at one gig where it was only used as a monitor as I was going through the PA. It is a great cab. A real one cab solution weighing approximately 18Kg or 40lbs. I'm 70, under 11 stone, have osteoporosis and have suffered a spinal fracture and I'm happy to lug it around. Specs briefly are 2 x 12" ceramic speakers 600 watts Piezo switchable tweeter with 2 levels of attenuation 57.8 x 60 x 47 cm https://www.markbass.it/product/mb58r-122-p-4/ Tone is very Markbass, i.e. effective. Collection or meet up only. I'm in Kendal, Lake District, NW England.

All prices reduced by £5 and delivery to UK included. I made space on my pedal board for an HX One. It replaced my Xotic Bass RC Booster and the pedal I thought I'd never sell, my Creation Audio Grizzy. So I now have 5 pedals sitting around doing not a lot and a hankering for a Stomp Creation Audio Grizzly. £135 Flattley Poison Ivy Fuzz £85 Black Country Custom The 85 Octave £80 Xotic Bass RC Booster £60 TC Electronics 3rd Dimension Chorus £20 All in top condition. In fact the 85, 3rd Dim and Flattely are like new. All boxed except for the Grizzly (I will keep looking). Velcro'd as per the photos. Peter

Another easy way to look at it is to look at your diagrams above where you have the two tones. In the first one, the wires that go from the centre position of the pots are joined at the jack socket. Effectively that is one piece of wire, which means you could show it as one wire joined at the pots, that goes to the jack with two switches connected to it. The second one is better for isolation, but again, if both volumes are fully up it is the same as the outside and centre being connected, which means as both centres are connected, both pickups are connected, so both switches are connected, and effectively inline. This is unavoidable with a passive circuit.

The Ampeg Micro VR looks cool but apparently the fan is really noisy so it's not well suited to playing at home quietly.

Nothing. If you turn both volumes up the tones will do the same thing. However, on the LP, the way you would use it is by switching between the front and back and at that point the position of the tone control would matter on that pickup. Not only that, on an LP the volumes also can kill each other - turn the volume of one pickup to zero, and then put the switch to both pickups, you won't get any sound. But the easy way to show, if you have an LP, try it. Turn one tone full down and one up, switch betwen them, you will see one is muffled, one isn't, switch to both and it will be muffled.

. Full disclosure: Slap bass played well doesn't offend me at all, and I wish I could play it better...

Nicely done @Rich, must admit I hadn't considered slap as a get out of jail free strategy

Still working the neck into shape, it's getting there. I wired a single pickup straight to the jack last night, so it made an electrical sound for the first time in many years! But what will delight some readers is that the extended stay outside has broken the Neutrik locking jack in the best way possible - it doesn't lock any more. Button still depresses and returns, but the jack is not held in place.

Hi. I bought this in 2021 for a project that never even got as far as fitting into a body so it's just sat in a box. Time to get shot so someone can use it. I have always fancied having a p-bass but I only ever play 5 strings now blah blah who cares. Anyway. This is just taking up space so it's yours for £25 posted. It's on a silly price because I just want shot of it so not really open to offers/trades.

Without wanting to derail anything, OldGit's Shuker 5-string P was utterly gorgeous. I played a whole gig with it once and the thing was just alive in my hands. When he had it built, there was no such thing as an off-the-peg 5-string P.

Back in the 90s I auditioned for a band in Swindon... it quickly became apparent that their original material was utterly dire, so I slapped my way through one of the songs in an attempt to deliberately fail the audition it seemed to work

Colour me interested. I always wanted a graphic neck for my various Stingrays, but then I found one with the most amazing neck ever and sort of got over it. I'd either try and get this one recreated for the Ray or I'd buy a standard sized one and build a bitsa around it. Good work though! - Today
