  1. Sure - I couldn't link any further than the main Glock page for their bass gear. You will see links on the left though - the cabs are at the top left (Space Deluxe) and the amp is bottom left in the discontinued section. If this is some weird technical thing and it's not working for anyone else just message me and I'll send you any details, manuals etc that you need. Cheers Abd
  2. This is very much a speculative listing - Glock rig, Blue Soul head and two matching Space Deluxe cabs. I've used this for bass guitar for approximately 10 years now I think. It has been and remains excellent. Unfortunately for me I'm starting to develop some problems leading me to consider if I need to look at some more lightweight options. The cabs weigh around around 20kgs each and whilst they are a very comfortable size there are clearly much lighter options around these days (which may or may not sound as good...). The head is no boat anchor, I think it is their first class D model perhaps, but again there are lighter options out there. Glock specs for both can be found here https://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/products_bass.htm
  3. well, yes it is a beauty - it's a good question though regarding B-G tuning I wouldn't want to put anyone off here, but I don't think it wouldn't be a straightforward matter of just putting different strings on, I think it would need to be looked at by someone who knows what they're doing. The nut would definitely need altering or replacing. I think the type of B would need consideration too - might need a taper style to fit the bridge and might need lower tension possibly to limit the stress on the next (which I don't think has any carbon reinforcement or the like) That's just my initial thoughts, if stringing it B-G is a deal breaker though then I would revise my answer to 'yeah, no worries, it'll all be fine!' 🙂
  4. Recently picked this up from Happy Jack (who is an absolute gentleman). It is a wonderful instrument; looks amazing, sounds great, build quality is exceptional. Unfortunately for me though this was my first try with a short scale bass and it does not agree with my lanky body at all. Having done a couple of gigs with it and put some decent hours in at home I know in my heart it's not going to work out for me. As I mentioned on IM to Jack, I don't think I've ever wanted to love a bass as much but known that it's just not to be. Here is a link to the recent listing with additional photos and details: Some additional information: The bass was originally fretless. A previous owner had it fretted. It's very good job, including the blacking out of the original side dots and replacement with new markers in the correct fretted positions. The bass has a set of Richter electronics in. I'd not come across these before, it's an excellent system. Controls are: 1) Volume/pan between piezo and mag pickups 2) Bass/treble with push/pull on the treble for passive bypass. With the tone controls set to flat I can't tell any difference between active and passive. There is no passive tone but the treble cut has a very similar quality. 3) Mid/mid frequency Access is through removal of the pickguard. The Richter piezo preamp is easily accessible there and features a trim pot for each individual saddle. I've set this so the overall output is a slightly higher than the mag pickup as I'd liked this mix for the center setting of the pan. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjduPeD0NyOAxWDXkEAHVyNPVAQFnoECBQQAQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.richter-ee.de%2Fpreamps2.html&usg=AOvVaw2P6r7UL8DDXNxMVEcfLDMv&opi=89978449 Full spec as per the original build is: Scale Length Short Scale 30" Number of Frets 20 Frets Body Construction Hollowbody Body Wood Alder Top Wood Eye Poplar Veneer Walnut Color Type Natural Body Binding Without Binding Body Finish Gloss Pickguard 3ply Cream Neck Wood Flamed Maple Neck Finish Matte Neck Profile Modern C Nut Width 40mm Carbon Rods No Fingerboard Wood Macassar Ebony Fingerboard Radius 14'' Headstock Type Matching Headstock (Natural) Headstock Finish Gloss Headstock Logo Silver Nut Black Pickup Combination Single Coil (SSC) Manufacturer Bassculture Pickup Finish Pickguard Color Neck Pickup Bassculture SSC 'Cream' Hardware Color Chrome Knobs Type Dome-Style Tuner Type Standard Y-Style Security Locks Without Security Locks String Type Flatwound The bass is strung E-C with what are believe are the original factory strings. There are no issues with these at all. To my fingers they feel like an E-C set of Labella DTFs. Hope that's helpful but any questions let me know. Happy to talk about trades as well as a cash sale, if I'm honest my main aim is to find this wonderful instrument a good home as it deserves to be loved and played.
  5. there was a period in time where this would have sent me totally over the edge, literally fizzing at the bung hole sadly, I'm no longer required to create sonic chaos in this way, what a great pedal though! glwts dude
  6. Really nice Lee, sorry to hear you’re having to sell 🫤
  7. Final bump, bass will go to the gallery on Monday much love
  8. Hello whilst in a gotoh box these are not gotohs, they came off my limelight jazz- I replaced them purely because I didn’t get on with the reverse wind aged nickle, all working nice and smooth, set of 4 inline screws and ferrule things included and in the box
  9. And that is the reddest red. 100% red (I checked and that’s all the red) love it
  10. Standard 4 string 5 hole fender replacement, fch version used but only a bit, very good but I prefer not having to lock everything down…. 95 new by the looks of it so 50 plus postage? no body screws btw but everything else intact, shiny and smooth
  11. hiya, 8lb 6 or about 3.8 kg matey
  12. Great pedal and totally agree re blending. Never sure why that was not a feature of the pedal….
  13. It's branded Kliq Pete, although I've got a few others branded as Aircell Basically a neoprene strap with air pockets built in. There are quite a few variants on the market these days, I've found them to be really comfortable
  14. Yamaha TRBX605FM in amber tint. Stunning at this price point. The bass is really well put together, functions with no issues at all, tuners, bridge, truss rod all beautifully operational. Is essentially a brand new bass, condition is excellent. Body is lightweight, well balanced and smooth contours on the heal. Overall it's a very well designed and put together instrument, perhaps given the Yamaha and TRB legacy more generally that's not surprising. The bass has been further upgraded by the addition of Aguilar DCBs and an East unipre (5 knobber with active/passive switch). I only purchased this week from Happypants as I was curious to try something I could tune E-C. It works brilliantly in this regard however the neck is not really what I want for this and I know ultimately it's not a keeper. I am becoming a neck snob as my years advance it seems. Pictures are current with TI Flats on but I'll restring with the original B-G rounds and undo the very minor adjustment I made on the bridge so it's restored as a more conventional 5 string. Also included is the original Yamaha pickups and preamp in case you wanted to fully restore it and reuse the East/DCBs... potential bargain right there some might say 🙂 No case but Happypants packed the bass well (thank you again matey, BC kudos!). Alternatively I am selling a Gator gig big which could be included in the deal if helpful.
  15. Wonderfulness my back says no though (very much at the stage where my body and I disagree on most things) Glwts, classic
  16. Very nice. Any chance of some more shots of the bass please? Aka basschat Frankie Vaughan 😁
  17. As new, used once. Very nice bag, decent padding and support etc. carrying straps fold away when not in use. Which is nice. £75 posted or a bit cheaper if you want to collect. Cheapest I could find online was 117…

  18. Brilliant! Well done for making this 😃 The tone might not be fab but I bet it does a terrific version of brick in the wall by Floyd gentlemen start your engines…
  19. Man alive that is a total spunker
  20. Hi matey - I was going to ask re the Sadowsky EQ as well. Can you confirm what the controls are now please? is the VTC version?
