  1. Lovely bass - just a touch too much for me at the moment, good luck with the sale
  2. Me with my jazz Trio (keys not shown) at recent Christmas gig in a chilly barn [attachment=178486:Double Bass.jpg]
  3. Hi Neepheid, do you still have that email address you used to hand? [quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1418073985' post='2626672'] I contacted Schaller about a broken screw in a Gibson branded M4S. Offered to pay and everything. They took no money from me and sent me not one but [i]four[/i] capstans, pinions and screws for M4S. Legends! Definitely worth an email. [/quote]
  4. Never take a spare double bass but always take a spare electric bass with me for Double Bass / Electric bass gigs - on occassions (especialy for low paid / low pressure gigs), I'll leave a 'cheapy' in the boot of the car, but for weddings etc I'll always have back-ups of all equipment to hand. I always imagine an equipment 'failure' during the first dance etc - think of all those family videos you'd be in
  5. I need some of these too - anyone found a supplier?
  6. Thanks Lozz

  10. For Sale: Stentor Conservatoire double bass, bow and padded case. The bass is a 3/4 size - becuase Stentor make their instruments very playable - you could class this as a small 3/4. Description from Stentor Website: [i]A high quality double bass outfit suitable for the more advanced student. The Stentor Conservatoire double bass is carved from selected solid tonewoods with natural flame. It has a fully carved front and back and is fitted with an ebony fingerboard. It also has good quality full plate brass machineheads for easy tuning. The Stentor Conservatoire double bass comes complete with a padded cover with bow and accessory pockets and a good quality wood bow.[/i][list] [*][i]Carved from solid tonewoods[/i] [*][i]Flamed back and front[/i] [*][i]Ebony fingerboard[/i] [*][i]Shellax varnish[/i] [*][i]Brass machineheads[/i] [*][i]Good quality bridge[/i] [/list] The bass is used but is in generally good condition, with only a few small laquer chips on the edges of the instrument and one on the scroll. The bow is in great condition - barely used. The padded case is generally ok, but has got several rips around the handles which would require some sewing / patching to rectify (a skill I don't have!). It still serves it's purpose though. For sale at £995 collected from Southampton. However, I am also looking for a much cheaper & smaller 1/2 size Double Bass and/or a Fender P Bass LYTE (Japan) with cash my way.

  11. Hi, I brought Stuart Clayton's Giants of Bass book (New) to help a student who is leanring some tunes from it, however Mr Post-person creased the envelope causing both CD's to crack.The seller has part-refunded the sale as he has no further copies avaibable. I rung the publisher, but their phone just rings and rings. Before I have to resort to buying another copy from a high-street retailer - could anyone do a copy of the 2 CD's for me? For reference, this is the sale: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/310664390275?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Thanks Greg
  12. Do you still have the Amplite?
  13. Thanks for your advice - much appreciated
  14. Thank you - very helpful
  15. A slightly higher sweetspot before the valve distorts
  16. Hi, My DI XLR output (rear of Genx Benz GBE600) decided to start cracking / popping at a recent gig (if lead with touched even slightly). The lead was ok, so I have just taken apart the amp to see if there is a problem with the socket. As the pictures show, there are small cracks at the bottom of the socket - so I guess it needs replacing. Any ideas where I can get a suitable part in the UK? The socket is mounted on a PCB board and attaches with two screws at the front. Thanks Greg [attachment=158017:XLR 1.jpg][attachment=158018:XLR 2.jpg]
  17. Thanks for this - yes I have looked at this site before (from a post of yours I think!). Just wondering what other valves people actually recommend / have tried.
  18. Hi, Has anyone changed their 12AX7 valve in a Genz Benz GBE600 to a valve with slightyl less gain (ie 12AT7)? If you have, what valve did you try? Greg
  19. Brought a MIM Jazz from Andy - very good comms and excellent packing skills. Thanks
  20. Hi Guys, I'm trying to create a[b] list of bass guitar (tuition based) books that are printed WITHOUT TAB[/b]. (I'd rather this post not turn into a discussion about how great or not great TAB is though ) Please feel free to add any books that you think are relevant and printed without tab. Thanks Greg
  21. SOLD, PACKED 'n' POSTED
  22. Following on from the discussion here ( [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/230275-identify-maker-effects-loop-with-blend/"]http://basschat.co.u...oop-with-blend/[/url] ) I am now able to offer this effects loop switch pedal for sale. Complete with blend control and on-off bright blue LED (mains driven - adaptor not supplied). Selling for £40.00 posted within UK --- or will swap with similar value item - open to offers.

  23. Red Onions sounds vaguely familiar. Shame they went out of business, this is a very robustly built pedal. Wonder what I could sell it for?
  24. Hi Folks, I'm trying to identify what company made this pedal for me. It's a effects loop pedal with the added option of a blend control. Also, I had it made with a LED (mains), but will run without power. I'm trying to find out who made it (around 2005), so I can price it up to sell, as I'm no longer using it - I've tried old email accounts and web-surfing but I can't seem to pinpoint who made it. I'm pretty sure it was UK make, but Looper (USA) seem to make similar custom made pedals. Thanks in advance, Greg
