Mart is a lovely guy and very easy to deal with. The P bass is also a fantastic instrument and once long ago belonged to me. Good luck Mart

[quote name='stevie' post='439442' date='Mar 19 2009, 05:11 PM']I know it's not exactly what you're looking for but it could well do the job. I've got a Giffin Q7, which does a great Tele and Strat sound, plus more raunchy P90-type tones. By far the best guitar I've ever played, which is why I have kept it. Here's a picture of Andy Summers playing the very one I have: [url="http://www.giffinguitars.com/client_list.htm"]http://www.giffinguitars.com/client_list.htm[/url]. I quite fancy swapping it for the Stingray. As it's such a rare guitar, I'd be happy to let you have it on trial. I've also got the original (rave) review from Guitarist magazine if you'd like to see it. Have I told the story about the time I walked into Roger Giffin's workshop and he had Hank Marvin's red Strat on the bench? Yes, that one! I actually picked it up. Hank had taken it in to a repairer on Denmark Street, who had made a real mess of it. I couldn't believe it! That repairer is still in business, and quite well known, but my lips are sealed as to his identity.[/quote] I wish I had a Stingray to trade..........

Wow! Rich you have some stunning basses. BUMP for Rich- a top guy to deal with and a true gent

[quote name='niceguyhomer' post='433190' date='Mar 13 2009, 07:15 AM']Hi Nick - is this really loud enough to gig with? What size room are we talking?[/quote] Hi Al Officially it pushes out 100W, but I certainly think it goes louder than that. The day I got it I took it to a rehearsal we had in a local rugby club and it was absolutely fine up against 2 150w guitar amps and PA. The reason I bought it was because I saw a guy play through one at my local pub and was really impressed with the sound. There were about 50 or so people in the pub which wasn't a huge place, but it was a reasonable size. It was plenty loud enough there and it cut through really well. There's a couple of reviews on Harmony-Central too where a few guys use these in Blues bands and Church bands with no issue at all either.

For trade is my Genz Benz 210T Combo. I've only owned this a short while and it is as new. It weighs 28Kgs and pushes out 100w though the 2x10 speakers. It's still under warranty (Genz Benz transferrable warranty) and is in mint condition. I bought this as a practice/back up amp, but have used it maybe 2 or 3 times and it has never left the house. To buy new these sell for £450. It is typical Genz benz quality and is a great bit of kit. Here's the spec: • Powerful 100 Watt Output • Active/Passive Input • Signal Input LED • Tuner Out • Shape Circuitry with Variable Mid-Scoop • Active 3 Band EQ with Parametric Mids • RCA CD Input • Headphone Jack • XLR Direct Out • Internal Fan Cooling • Attractive Black Vinyl • Protective Metal Speaker Grille Power Output Cabinet Response Speaker Configuration Preamp Type Weight Lbs. Dimensions HxWxD 100 W 55 - 18k HZ 2 x 10" & Tweeter FET 62 2 6 1/2" (H) x 20" (W) x 14 3/4" (D) This is easily loud enough to gig with and really is top quality. I'm looking for a trade with a Hartke LH500 head, a decent DI box, EBS Octabass and cash to make up any difference. I would also sell this for £260. Due to the weight, I'd ideally look to exchange in person and would be prepared to meet half way (I live in Surrey). Thanks for looking

If I had the money Mart I'd have her back in a jiffy. I hope you find something equally as good to replace it mate
