Output jack for Amp input or speaker cab alongside. Balanced XLR output to mixer on the reverse. Instrument input 1.8M ohm impedance - so no loading of amp input or pickups Phantom powered off the mixer XLR or by 9v battery

    Fender Precision bass in Tidepool from 2020. The bass has a satin urethane finish on the neck and is in near mint condition. Takes a great set up and only has a tiny mark on the P in Precision Bass on the headstock which is barely noticeable and can’t be seen in the close up photo as it is that small. Weight is 4kg. Price is £550 but I am open to sensible offers. Local pickup only from the Coalisland area. Feel free to ask any questions.

    This box has a set of three Speakon connectors wired in parallel (using pins 1 & 2) so can be used as an extender for speaker cables, or to allow two cabs to be driven from the same amp One connector at one end and two at the other end The box is made from very solid extruded aluminium

    I bought this very well upholstered Gator gig bag (current retail £135) for my Guild Starfire bass, but although it fits, its a bit tighter lengthwise than seems sensible, so this has barely been used. It is fairly obviously sized for a Gibson 335 guitar, but will also fit a flying V or a short-scale bass that's a fraction smaller than a Starfire Loads of padding, loads of pockets and a waterproof cover (in pocket 6 on the back, I think - depends how you count the pockets) The padding at the base of the bag can be removed (its on velcro) to give a couple of cm extra space - the quoted overall internal length is without this extra padding fitted Pickup preferred, but I will post it, although I haven't worked out what that would cost, let me know if you're interested and I'll get a price. Internal size: Overall Length: 46.1" (117.09 cm) Body Length: 25.0" (63.5 cm) Body Height: 3.5" (8.89 cm) Lower Bout Width: 17.3" (43.94 cm) Middle Bout Width: 15.4" (39.12 cm) Upper Bout Width: 13.0" (33.02 cm) Exterior Dimensions: Length: 47.8" (121.41 cm) Width: 18.3" (46.48 cm) Height: 6.9" (17.53 cm)

    LA Audio high quality active DI box, very solid construction; comes with an instruction leaflet - which is worth reading since the box is deceptively versatile! This works off an 18v rail so can cope with high or low level signals. Power via phantom from your mixer or 2 x 9v batteries Usefully it has a +20db switch to increase the level of low output devices and with 1M ohm input impedance is compatible with piezo pickups The Input will work with Instrument or Speaker levels ('Pad' switch is for speaker level), isolated XLR output for your mixer and a 'link' output to take the signal on to an amp or cab A separate unbalanced output is available as well as the balanced XLR

    Wouldn’t let me type before - no idea why. Good gig last night helping some mates out. they’d agreed to the gig then their bass player moved to a different country so I stepped in. Learned 10 songs, played 7. wasn’t my best performance; first time going ampless and I was a bit thrown by that. sold out Gorilla in Manchester, the main band were half our age - it was like looking at a sea of my daughters mates 😆 Felt very old.

    Anyone need a PA amp? Usual excellent Crown quality, this amp has only had light use and comes in a Chord carry bag. Not sure what the total weight is, but the amp on its own is under 4kg, so very portable XLR inputs, Speakon outputs for most users, plus various other options as per photos As well as standard Stereo, the amp can be configured as follows: Crossover Mode (CH1=LPF, CH2=HPF) – this mode enables a LowPass Filter on Channel 1 and a HighPass Filter on Channel 2 at the frequency chosen. LowPass Mode (CH1=LPF, CH2=LPF) – this mode enables a LowPass Filter on both Channel 1 and Channel 1 at the frequency chosen. HighPass Mode (CH1=HPF, CH2=HPF) – this mode enables a HighPass Filter on both Channel 1 and Channel 2 at the frequency chosen. You can also put it into 'Bridge' mode for seriously high levels of output (according to the spec 1.5kW into 4ohm) Pickup from Uxbridge area, or I'll courier to you at cost.

    Just bought a couple of 'Marshall' key holders from Chris. A happy transaction with one of the good guys Many thanks

    I enjoyed it. If you didn't like it, there are lots of other bass centric shows to watch... oh. Wait... what? That's fake news, you say? Sorry. As you were.

    Does anyone have a Pete Back bass? Only ever saw one, a lefty Thunderbird with a flying V headstock. I owned a Pete Back Explorer for a while, sadly now gone. Not even sure if he's still in business, and cant find much info about him. Cheers

    Picked up the Thunder 1 a couple of weeks ago. Hadn't played it for a while but the Roto 66s were still fresh. Blew me away. Took it to play four songs at an OM that evening. Lots of comment on the tone even though I was just straightintobthe PA with no DI box.

    I stumbled on this, watched it. Yes the show was based around Peter H as the main presenter, which is OK and why not. I would agree maybe the show's title isn't quite on point but I don't mind as it was interesting to see Peter today with a few snippets of his history. I wonder also if some of the other "names" - were thinking, "Why aren't I the focus of the show?". I could see in Peter, any mention of Ian was emotional, they must have had great respect for each other, even at their young age. Knowing band arguments, it was interesting to note when Barney (Peter's long time friend) told him not to play on a new New Order track, that usually culminates into either a.. confrontation or "ok then Bye". I could see it was a sore point, indeed a mistake by Barney who I would suspect to be intoxicated by their success, money, new tech and even seduced by the hedonistic lifestyle of London. Which would have been equally as intense as Mcr but very different values. Anyway, I liked the show, was easy viewing. It's a contrast to today where when we want some real nitty-gritty we go to YT

    Maybe give it a watch then? Seems rather incurious that someone who frequents a site called Basschat wouldn't want to at least attempt a peek at an all-too-rare TV show about the subject. Each to their own, I suppose. Testify! 👏

    With any luck, these programs might encourage non bass players to listen a bit more to what we’re doing and maybe understand why.

    Casino by Al Di Meola. Taking me back to ‘70s, when I discovered ADiM thanks to the local lending library (remember those anyone?). Listening to it now, I still love what he does, but who is that on the bass, they sound familiar? None other than Anthony Jackson. Steve Gadd on drums too, no wonder it still sounds great.

    Gosh we can all be very precious about this. Any programme aimed at bass players would have a pretty small audience. This is a programme aimed at a wider public who have more than a superficial interest in music. The songs mentioned are generally not technical, but are ones someone aware of 'bass' (many 'music lovers' aren't - sorry to shatter your illusions) would appreciate as being part of their success. And, to be fair, a 'great bassline' is one that lifts a song beyond the everyday. Of course MY list would look very different, but this programme doesn't target me. I'm just grateful for a programme that will, hopefully, rause awareness and understanding of the role and potential of my chosen instrument and the people who play it.

    Any ‘real world’ feedback from gigs and that now the pedal has been in the hands of players for a wee bit?

    I run my always on MXR M87 comp into my VTDI and I like what it does. However, when using the VTDI (which seems to be more often than not at the moment) I’m definitely adding grind (more SVT than B15) and a fair bit of top end. There is definitely some added compression but it’s different from what the M87 is doing.

    The only trade I'm after potentially is a small cab 👍
  33. Lozz196
    Great programme but was expecting more actual bass lines highlighted, analysed and dissected, leading to why they are considered the greatest.

    ***Price reduced*** A rare premium Ibanez sound gear 6 string bass guitar. Made in Indonesia. If you are looking at this, you know how good they are! this one comes with the original hardcase, a strap and the manual. I tried to take enough photos to show some bumps but the neck is perfect and playability is superb. Strung with flatwounds so no need to ever change them! Reason for selling is only because 4 strings is more than enough for me and I am doing a clear out! Collection only! No trades unfortunately...
