neepheid started following Squier Jaguar H - modified
-
Squier Jaguar H bass - medium (32") scale. Modified with an Ibanez pickup out of an ATK800 (quad coil), switch added for series/single/parallel switching. Fender high mass bridge. Black pickguard, original white one will be provided. You can even have the stock pickup if you want, but the Ibanez pickup sounds so much better. Great wee bass in excellent condition, only a few very minor dings. Modified to sound way better than stock and much more flexible/useable. Selling at the price a stock one would, because I'm lazy and I know that mods are basically worthless in the market. But don't take the mick - no offers please. Would love a local-ish sale (Aberdeen), but can box it up and ship it at buyer's expense.

⭐Supporting Member⭐ 2.6k This is a traditional Laney 15", 100 Watts combo. First the bad news: No light weight speaker, no Class D amplifier, so it comes in as 30Kg (and is quite big). (But slightly lighter than the Marshall B150 that I am listing) It has a gouge in the tolex near the left hand side handle. Apart from that if it is all positive. This is fully functional (just checked it) and would be ideal for "fixed" installation such as a studio or practice room, as a fixed backline in a pub or something, or for a younger man than I now am!. Not used this much and only bought it (rashly) because it was available This is actually quite a different beast to the Marshall B150 that I am also listing (separate thread). Amp is 100 Watts into 4 ohms. Amp has socket for additional speaker, so possibly internal speaker is 8 ohm. I'm not sure. Ported Cabinet. All solid state (no valve preamp) Remotely selectable Pre Shape. NO Classic Bass & Treble controls, but ... Remotely selectable 10 Band Graphic EQ with in/out volume adjustment. Dual band (?) compressor Switchable limiter Switchable noise gate Manual, such as it is, attached. Due to its weight: COLLECTION ONLY, but that gives you the chance to try it out. NOTE THAT: As part of the clear out I am/will soon be listing: Marshall Bass state B150 15" combo. Behringer BEQ3012 two channel 32 band equaliser with feedback detection. 4u ABS flight case Two Shermann PA cabinets (15" + 6" + tweeter). Seriously professional bits of kit. 12 + 4 15m Snake cable/box 12 + 4 25m Snake cable/box Behringer FBQ6200 32 band, 2 channel equaliser with feedback detection. Large base tall lighting stand Various LED lighting units & controllers Ibanez SR505 Bass. DP100, DP150, DP300.pdf

I have only two basses and both go out with me. They are tools and I want to sound the very best I can be.

Yes, but you might want to offer something over and above your basic statutory responsibilities.

simisker started following OK... so age is now taking effect...

Do you use IEMs? What about an audio cue solution, rather than a visual one? Not that I know of one, I should add. I'm just thinking of something that may work without making you look like you're the band's supplier of Werther's Originals 😁

RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE started following Fortissimo cheap Stratocaster copy
-
I purchased this ages ago, with the notion of learning a guitar lick or two for my GarageBand masterpieces 😬😂. It’s gathering dust ,and basically being ignored. I stick to my basses and synths these days, realising I’m too ham fisted and impatient to be bothering with this anymore in the ltd time I have used it . It has a mark on the back of the neck , which wasn’t an issue . I do have the whammy bar and tuner which I will obviously include. Collection only please if interested.

police squad started following Do you use your “best” bass on gigs?
-
I've always gigged them all, even my '59 Les Paul jr got a good thrashing in the pub But I'm playing cheaper instruments these days, my two Warwick Adam Clayton basses were 2nd hand and not that expensive I have a 4003 made by HW incoming and can't wait to try it in the Jam tribute but it was cheaper than any 2nd hand Rick I could find

bassfan started following Sire Marcus Miller
-
Right. I’ve said it before and now I mean it. No more 5 strings! Something shiny takes my fancy and it never works out for me so my very sexy metallic green Sire must go. Bought off of the wonderful @lee650 last year. It’s near mint. Plays beautifully and not been gigged by me. there’s no hardcase but it does have a bag and I can ship or deliver. £450 all in. Treat yourself!

This is a traditional Marshall 15", 150 Watts combo. This is the earlier British built B150, not the later foreign built MB150 First the bad news: No light weight speaker, no Class D amplifier, so it comes in as 35Kg (and is quite big). Exterior is a bit battered, but nothing major. Apart from that if it is all positive. This is fully functional (just checked it) and would be ideal for "fixed" installation such as a studio or practice room, as a fixed backline in a pub or something, or for a younger man than I now am!. This served me well as my main stage amp for many years, and was the first time I experienced actual trouser flapping! Sealed cabinet which has since been stuffed (by me) with wadding. Side handles were added by me due to the weight. 150 (Marshall) Watts as it stands, with no possibility for extension cabs. To me the main feature of this combo is that it has a real valve pre-amp, which makes a really noticable difference to the tone - so much so that the blend knob (between valve & SS) is actually useful. Not like some modern units with valve pre amps that seem to make bugger all difference. Inputs for Active & Passive basses. SS/Valve Blend control Bass and treble controls 7 Band Graphic EQ Deep and Bright Buttons Switchable limiter In-built compressor NO remote control possibillities however. Attached manual details the controls. Note that the original handle has one of its end covers missing. Due to its weight: COLLECTION ONLY, but that gives you the chance to try it out. NOTE THAT: As part of the clear out I will soon be listing: Laney 100W 15" combo. Behringer BEQ3012 two channel 32 band equaliser with feedback detection. Two Shermann PA cabinets (15" + 6" + tweeter).

On the general issue of age etc. My ears are so bad now I struggle to deal with any loud noise even with ear plugs. And more generally just the whole thing of gigging, the effort needed, the hanging about... even the playing to a degree. I suppose for some of us the whole thing just looses what it had when we were younger. Pity.

Alright not a bass player, but I thought very much in theme with this thread - pesky pedal board power supplies!!

I am selling a pair of Shure 315 in-ear headphones in excellent condition. I bought them a while back in Westend DJ in London, but haven't used them all that much. Initially, I bought them to practice bass at home, but never used them to play live. I have used them for a few rehearsals, and they do the job well. They are lightweight, sit nicely, and the cable is sturdy. The sound is mid-focused, making it ideal for vocalists or guitar players. It works for bass as well, just don't expect massive low-end. They will come with all Shure accessories (pouch, extra eartips). I did buy an additional cable with a mic for them, but never tested it. I will also include some extra eartips I have. This is a genuine pair of Shure headphones/IEMs, so buy with confidence. Thanks! Free postage in the UK.

Put the amp head in the freezer, it will give all enough to fit. However, assuming it does not split the case as it expands, it will never come out.

JohnDaBass started following Bad Experience with Bax
-
In February I ordered a Fender Kingman 2 SS bass from Bax Music. Paid through PayPal,bass arrived safely and very pleased with the bass and the purchase & delivery process. However, the website showed an extra season discount which had not been applied to the final price. After an email exchange Bax promised to issue the refund once the 30 day returns period had ended. No sight of the refund until today when I received an email offering a credit note to the value of the refund. There was a long explanation about the bankruptcy and how the new company could not refund cash but could honour their obligation with a credit note. So all good really.

Stentor Conservatoire. Advice Please 🙏
The Guitar Weasel replied to JazzyJ's topic in EUB and Double Bass
Firstly absolutely not a dying art by any means ... there are many many gigging psychobilly and rockabilly slap players - I went to an all day psychobilly festival a while ago where out of seven bands playing there were six slap players (and one lady with a Rickenbacker). You have hit the nail on the head with the fact that there are VERY few teachers who have any clue about slap - and worse - a couple I have met regard it as 'not proper double bass playing' and somewhat look down their noses at it. Not everyone wants to play jazz or classical and and rockabilly appeared to be the OP's thing. To my mind for a rockabilly player there is infinitely more use in some of the YouTube slap lessons than in six months of learning stuff you have no desire to play from someone who doesn't get the genre you want to learn. Also learning about pickups and amplification (without feedback) is super important if you want to gig - and very few teachers have much of a clue about that. And as you said, high tension strings (and low jazz actions) are a sure way to screw up or at least not sound great slap playing. I love jazz by the way ... just not me playing it 😉 -
