  5. Bass Collection active 5 string from 1991 WAS £300 THEN £280 NOW £260 NOW £260 ANY GUITAR OR BASS RELATED TRADE CONSIDERED I have owned this since 2000 and done loads of gigs with it. At one time I had 4 bass collection 5 stringers and 1 bass collection passive 4 string Its a brilliant guitar and is in good condition no real damage and everything works as it should. Of the 4 active bass collections I have owned they all had different preamps but this was by far the best one. I think 1991 was the first year of manufacture. I have bad arthritis in my hands and struggle to play a 34inch 5 string. I am currently gigging with a passive 4 string 30inch Nordstrand Acinonyx. It does not come with any bag or case so I will not be posting it. The strap buttons are part of my straplock system so these will be replaced with the originals

  7. Folks, some sad news today. I visited our very own @ash this afternoon for our annual P bass exchange and to my horror it would appear that ash is down to his last 3 P basses. This is very worrying indeed and I have offered a much emotional support as I can. In order not to aggravate ash's condition could I ask for a short moratorium on posting any pics of P basses or indeed any listing of P basses for sale. It's a difficult time for ash and I'm sure the BC community will support. Thank you.

  13. I immediately ordered the shortscale DC when they became available , and then had to wait about ten months for mine to arrive. The beauty of the Longhorn is its size , the bridge is right at the body edge. This time they took the DC body and moved the bridge a couple of inches forward and put on a 24 fret short scale neck. So it’s similar in size to the single cut 56 Series. It is much larger than the Longhorn despite being the same scale. It doesn’t sound like the Longhorn , but it does have an interesting woody tone. I like it. I replaced the adjustable metal bridge with a Jerry Jones popsicle stick bridge (courtesy of a Dano friend on TB) , for me they sound better , and there is a sweet spot for the wooden bridge where the intonation is fine. (and it doesn’t take long to position it) I strung mine with LaBella flats. Still the original strings and bridge in the pic.

  14. The thread is about playing in church, so can we please stick to the musical topic and leave the proselytising for the pulpit? Many thanks.

  15. I'm in the cool as heck camp. Not everyone agrees though. 😄 I don't notice it being a short scale as much as other SS's probably due to the strap button position shifting the neck over to the left. I picked up a 56 for peanuts earlier in the year, I couldn't help myself. It needs some love but it'll great once sorted.

  16. I have a '98 Korean Longhorn, unusual in that it has no tape binding. It can do thump, it can do clank, and all sorts of other stuff. I love it, it weighs nothing and despite looking like it was made in the shed by your grandad, it's been indestructible. Setting the intonation is a big faff though.

  17. I done one! Seeing the pic had someone with a gun in their hand, I thought it best to do a cover of Hendrix' classic "Hey Joe" 😁 Drums, EZ, bass and rhythm "guitar" , Wal. Vox, me (who else!), lead guitar, bashed up Strat. Bass through Ampeg SVT plug in, rhythm bass through BX Rockrack and Bias amp, Vox through Raum and Nectar, lead through Bias FX, all mastered with Oxone 9.

  23. I just had a rush of blood to the head and bought a Maruszczyk medium scale off eBay, which means I need to sell my Jaguar H. I am going to be listing it pretty soon, just need to get a moment to take the photos and write the blurb. I have had the pickup rewired to give 4 conductors and potted to cut the noise. I wired it up with a 3 way switch to give series/single coil/parallel switching. That gives you two less bassy options than the standard series wiring. Also shielded and Fender high mass bridge.

  24. I don't think I can do much more to this so I'll let it loose. I tried to get a feel of a theme/title sequence to a TV show that might have the photographed person as main character. Not much technical really, all bashed out on a digital piano , put together in reaper, smeared with a bit of reverb and rolled in a bit of ozone8 .

  25. 2 disc bulges here as well... The consultant at Gobowen told me years ago (15!) that I had 2 courses of action; either have surgery, with all the risks that entails and no guarantee of success, or build core strength in order to support the injured area (I got it attempting to lift a Triumph spitfire back end!). So every morning I do an exercise routine - some yoga to help keep joints moving, 300 fully supported crunchies (twist and straight), some Pilates/yoga back stretches (cat, upenarsinan or whatever it's called etc), 2 minutes plank, 50 press ups, lunges, hip flexes, Sun Salute (i.e reach right up then touch the ground with as straight legs as you can). It's kept me pain-free and able to mountain bike, climb etc, though it took nearly 6 months of exercises to get to that state. I shall continue with this regime until I'm no longer able to move at all!

  26. Haha! Correct, AO 60s… getting nothing else to replace it with I’m afraid! I need a new amp head (mesa WD800 on the way) as I’m returning the SVT 2 Pro in the pictures, it was lent to me. Sold the Ric 4003 Ruby red and the AO Jazz… the plan is to keep the Ray and the Precision and save since I have a baby coming and some overdraft etc, better to save for peace of mind this time. I do have dreams for a 3rd bass sometime next year, god knows what.

  27. Considering he's still defrauding folk and his earlier activity keeping bands deposits from nonexistent venue bookings plus his conviction how can he just be getting away with it??? I will be speaking with a mate who is former police officer and asking how to complain to made the loudest noise on this so something gets done.

  28. Top of the range Bergantino cab, currently not available in the UK (due to the domestic US demand), in very good condition with padded Bergantino cover. It's a fantastic, articulate and great sounding cab and, without doubt, the best cab I've had! (And must admit that statement is putting quite an element of doubt about my moving this on, so I'm looking to be firm on price on this one). Bergantino website description / spec I've spoken with BD and they have advised that these will be around £1,800 new when they get them back in stock later in the year. Willing to travel a reasonable distance of London or Birmingham to meet up to provide delivery in person.

  30. Really nice playing 2009 SG bass in faded/worn black. Versatile rock bass which only weighs around 7.5 pounds. Amazing condition (only sign of use I can see is a small indentation on side of fretboard, pictured). Basically looks like it sat in its hard case unused for all of its life while small rodents chewed at the outside of the case (which still functions perfectly). Without the glossy nitro finish of the SG Standard bass the neck is much easier and slicker to play, in my view. I am cutting my bass collection down as my band's one and only festival gig in diary has been cancelled and there is nothing planned for the foreseeable. Hence no trades. £825 including UK post, or £800 collected from SW13 London.

  34. 3/4 double bass "Tatra by Rosetti – Stradivarius Model" made at the famous Cremona Factory (now known as Strunal Schönbach) in Luby, Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic) some time in the mid 1980s, I understand. Upright bridge to nut string length 40”/101.5cm. It’s in really good condition – only a couple of minor scuffs to the finish either side of the edge of the upper bout. Comes complete with soft case/”gig bag”, and stand. I’ve fitted the bass with the Presto |Nylon Tape Wound strings which feel great and have the look of old school “gut” strings. (The original old steel tape wound ones are in the Presto box and are included as spares). It hardly gets played at all now, so it’s up for sale. I’m in Royton, near Oldham, Lancs, just 5 minutes off Junction 20 of the M62.

  35. If memory serves correct I recorded this album with this head and a Mesa walkabout 112 cab. The recording was certainly the di out of the amp and possibly the cab blended too. In fact all our stuff was recorded and played with this head/cab combo. I had little to do with things once it was recorded so don’t know what else was done post but I loved the head. Always delivered live and it was my only rig for a few years. https://tituspullo.bandcamp.com/album/regardless-of-how-it-appears

  40. It took ages but I finally found the time to clean it up, set it up with nylons and test a few different pickguards. The neck may still need a bit of lemon oil but it’s a good start. Just can’t decide what guard to leave on!

  42. at one time i pretty much had one of every major production brand there was (excpet warwick. never owned a warwick) this was my room in 2002. i had so many. nothing really over 2K at the time cost to me. i never went in for the high end fancy custom basses. now, bar a few exceptions, everything i have i either built or modified heavily i had a bit of a problem back then. more than one!

  44. I was in the process of clearing out all my spares and extras, after making a board I'm happy with... but there were too many pedals I couldn't part with, so I stuck a new spare/compact/practise board together.... I'll move the genzler r-eq on to the smaller board once I get a lpf pedal for the big one. I might swap the tuners around too. The Boss is a little quicker, even though it takes up more space....

  45. Hi all here is my super versatile Boss Katana 210 in as new condition. It has the AB amp, rather than class D and really packs a punch, plus it has programmable tones, effects and loads of lovely fiddle about knobs! only used for rehearsale once , and otherwise home use. In terms of performance i would say its high end, and more like a 500w rig, even though the AB amp is classed at 160w. It delivers very good bass tone, and the high end is not too glassy. But as i say you can change the eq parameters for all settings with the Boss app. its 46lbs which is too heavy for me for gigging, but some of you youngsters out there probably wont worry! only selling, as i am no longer gigging ( thank god!) and i am now a home fiddler and recordist ( is that a word?) it comes with the original box and all goodies, and i have tried to price as a bargain as they are £560 at Andertons. i dont really want to send it, but i am happy if you want to have it collected at your risk? thanks for looking, Mike
