  1. I'm looking to sell this chaps, I've only had it a year and its in perfect condition! I haven't played it much so it still looks the business. Had the local guitar shop replace with bridge for me last year to improve the sustain. Only selling as I had a new bass bought for me for my birthday last month and can't justify the two. You know what these are like and what great tone they have for not that many pounds. Looking for £170 pickup, or a little more to post. I'm based in Taunton, Somerset. Cheers, Simon

  7. [font="Verdana"][b]**SOLD**Ashdown Electric Blue 180W 1x12 Bass Combo EVO II**[/b] Perfect condition, hardly used, only three months old Really sad to see it go but its just too loud for this house and is bugging the neighbours! Paid £230 for it brand new - your opportunity to grab a bargain Still have the original manual Collection from Taunton, Somerset only :-) All of the technical gubbins listed below..... [i][i]Ashdown Electric Blue bass amplification loads legendary Ashdown tone into an affordable new amp head and a pair of high-performance, high-value combos. The EB 12-180 1 x 12" combo uses a 180 Watts RMS fan-cooled fast-transient power stage, and a fully-featured bass preamplifier with inputs for both active and passive instruments, an illumunated VU meter, 5 band EQ with Bright and Deep switches, a front panel-mounted balanced DI output for connection to a PA or recording console, an FX loop, a tuner/line output and the classic Ashdown sub-harmonic generator. Consistent with its EVO II status, the combo also includes a built-in compressor to provide an exceptional level of sonic control for a bass amp of this size and cost. A high-performance Ashdown bass driver ensures exceptional attack, clarity and low-end performance, while an extension speaker output can be used to connect an additional cabinet for use in larger venues. The cabinet is finished in a tough, retro-style vinyl covering. * Power Output (RMS): 180W * Power Requirement: 230 /115v * Speaker Configuration: 1 x 12" BlueLine speaker * Frequency Response: -3dB at 33Hz and 25KHz * Speaker Outputs: Minimum impedance 4 Ohms * High Instrument Input Impedance: 3.9M Ohms / Input range 150mV - 20V p-p * Low Instrument Input Impedance: 10 Ohms / Input range 300mV - 40V p-p * Line Input Impedance: 22k Ohms / Input level 0dBu nominal * DI Output: 600 Ohms balanced / Level -20dBu nominal * Tuner Output: Impedance 22k Ohms, level 0dBu nominal * Signal to noise: Better than 80dB (EQ flat) * EQ Bass +/-15dB @ 100Hz * Lo Mid +/-15dB @ 220Hz * Middle +/-15dB @ 660Hz * Hi Mid +/-15dB @ 1.6kHz * Treble +/-15dB @ 7kHz shelving * Deep +8dB @ 50Hz * Bright +10dB @ 10kHz * Effects Send Impedance: 22k Ohms / Level 0dBu nominal * Effects Return Impedance: 22k Ohms / Level 0dBu nominal * Distortion: Less than 0.5% THD * H x W x D (mm): 501 x 474 x 300 * Weight (kg): 27[/i][/i][/font][size="3"][/size]
  8. Have realised that a really good multi effects pedal can't hide a very bad bass player. Comes in box with manuals and power supply. Will pass on shop receipt for manufacturers warranty. Perfect condition - as you would receive one brand new. Collection from Shrewsbury, Shropshire or will post for £5 These pedals retail for around £70
  9. [quote name='7string' post='836516' date='May 13 2010, 07:45 PM']Inspect the string closely and make sure that it's not unwinding itself at the bridge or the tuner. If you don't have anything to measure the string and there's nothing obviously wrong with it, I think it's worth taking it back to the shop and getting some advice on it. They should be able to help you with no questions asked. A floppy string might be to do with the gauge, but if it's brand new then you shouldn't have a problem. The gauge would have to be really wrong to make such a difference.[/quote] Thanks for the advice mate, I'll have a closer look at it in the morning - its been frying my brain today!! I have also ordered another set of strings so that I can try out another E string - have gone for a different gauge to those alledgedly installed on my bass. Cheers Simon
  10. Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the bass world so really need some advice from you good people. After spending a year playing one of those bass starter packs I bit the bullet and have just bought a Squire Vintage Modified Jazz Bass and an Ashdown EB-12 amp - both of which I'm really pleased with....... However, the E String on the bass seems really...er..floppy! It is perfectly in tune and is intonated correctly. When I play fingerstyle it sounds quite muffled and this gets even worse when I try and slap, I seem to get more percussive sound than note!? Open E String slaps are just a no go area! Nothing I do seems to fix it.........the A String is perfect (as are the others) and gives a great slap tone. Is there anything I can do, or am I better off just replacing the strings. I have no idea what the stock strings or gauge are on my bass? I know my playing technique may not be amazing, but I'm pretty sure that this isn't right. I bought the bass on the strength of its great tone for the price. Any help would be greatly appreciated as it frustrating the hell out of me. Cheers everyone. Simon
