  1. Past hour
  2. Does the noise happen with mute engaged on both channels?
  3. Could do, but I think it’d be a bit dangly and still less than aesthetically pleasing.
  4. Yep, that would be the plan. I just don’t know whether the pouch was too big for the bug.
  5. I had the stereo and sold it. Regretted it and bought the mono. It really is the Swiss Army knife of amp world. I’ve got a Markbass Evo 1 to try out at the moment which basically, has the Multiamp amps and effects but has two independent channels, which is exactly what I need. I think it’s what I’ve been looking for, for a long time 😁
  6. One of the newer Classic Vibes. Upgraded pups/loom, bridge and black plate. Not weighed it but I’d say it’s less than 9lb. I can leave the straplocks on or put the original pins back on. I do not have any of the other original parts. In pretty good condition, I’ve tried to photograph any damage I can see. The back of the neck is lightly sanded, which improves it in my opinion. It’s a really nice bass in one of my favourite colour schemes but something has cropped up that I’ve got my eye on. Collection from Blackburn Lancs is preferable but buyer can arrange a courier at their expense and I’ll add a beat up Gator case that is functional for shipping and gigging but has some issues.

  7. Something I was putting together as a backup but ended up with something else…… Slab Precision 66 type body. The paint is thin and not the best finish but not embarrassing. I didn’t paint it, it was like that when I bought it from here. It’s fine when it’s dressed up though. The neck pocket is bit oversized but when I fitted the neck (that I bought from here separately) , the holes lined up perfectly. I presume they are drilled for a standard Fender neck fitting. The neck is quite nice. It has Fender decals but it’s not a Fender. The decals have also been lacquered over. It has black Schaller tuners and a Geddy Lee neck plate. I think someone was building a Geddy at some point. The pups are Fender. They came out of a Mex Deluxe I believe. i was going to change the harness as it sometimes makes a crackle noise, not all the time, just now and again. Never got round to it as it’s so infrequent. Plays well enough and the neck is quite skinny. I haven’t weighed it but I would say it’s between 8-8 1/2 pounds. It could be a lot nicer with a bit of tlc but I’m not going to use it now and thought I may as well pass it on to someone. Collection and trial much preferred but I will post if the buyer arranges their own courier.

  8. £50 price reduction Trades - X Touch Universal. Try me with anything, I can only say no 😁 Great bass in good condition, comes with hard case. Short scale. Not a heavy bass. Plays well. Not really any damage to speak of. There’s a little bit at the top of the headstock (photographed) but looks much worse than it actually is. I’ve removed the strap lock pins and replaced them with the originals that were odd when I got it. The case is old but fully function and all the clasps work. Chrome hardware and a vintage sunburst finish. Mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard and a basswood body. A retro instrument with a modern twist." Maple Top Mahogany Body Mahogany Neck Lignum Rosa Fingerboard Entwistle MBH Bridge Pickup Entwistle MBN Neck Pickup Jumbo Frets 42mm Nut Width 30" Scale Length Can post at buyers expense or can be collected from BB22SH Any questions please ask.

  9. cheers Mark , it’s lovely just needs playing
  10. Meh go on then 😂
  11. Thanks mazdah and Lozz196. I tried two ABM600s and a RM800 at different times and each time I quit because I couldn't quickly and easily find the tone I was looking for. I just took the easy way and switched back to my Eden, Ampeg and Mesa amps that seemed to have tone-shaping centred around the tones in my head. This time I'm determined to find the right sounds that I'm sure are in the ABM600 somewhere. I'm doing this because a) I believe Ashdown have earned my money and b) with them I won't have the complicated and expensive experience I had recently getting a faulty American-branded head repaired.
  12. Hi all, This was my bass, absolutely gutted that it went missing. Hopefully we can get enough eyes on it can be found. Mark has been amazing throughout the experience and really helpful as anyone who's worked with or ordered from him will testify. Thanks again all!
  13. Thanks Ash, good info. I haven't given it much of a chance with the Precision incoming. If it doesn't sell its not a disaster and I'll revisit at some point!
  14. Hmmm...not really. You tend to pull the cover from one side - at the most breaking the pull of two magnets as one half of the hatch lifts up with the other two acting like a hinge. But, even with that said, they are surprisingly powerful for such teeny things. 👍
  15. Awesome basses! X
  16. A very talented man, used to love the skids! Bass break in ‘out of town’ still makes me tingle when i listen to it even after all these years x
  17. Works perfectly, in great condition. Has no box (dog ate it… really) but does have the little manual with recommended settings.
  18. I used 3mm dia x 1mm thick magnets with a 0.19kg pull from First4Magnets on my last build. I've used 5mmx1mm at 0.3kg in the past but that is a bit overkill for a standard size/weight hatch.
  19. I stand corrected, it happens occasionally 🤣
  20. This one and the XB Driver, I reckon.
  21. I love these basses... had 3 of the orange ones over the years. Truly one of the best 6 string basses ever made.
  22. Top knowledge there, Steve!
  23. No introduction needed. Works perfectly, great condition. Probably £4 if you want it posted £260 without the tap

  24. Ah man. Thats pretty much my ideal jazz… nothing to offer financially or trade wise…
  25. I think it's all sorted and straight up with Thomann, I bought recently a £380 bass and didn't have to pay over any extra
