  1. Time to move another bass on..... I only picked this up recently and literally haven't touched it since purchase....but as something more important has come up it's pretty much last in/first out.... Here we have an early 90's thru-neck Jackson 'Kip Winger' bass from the 'Professional' range, with active Reflex (EMG clone) pickups. These basses are incredibly well made, very comfortable to play and hardly any different from the full USA models. The bass is made of beautiful honey- coloured Australian Lacewood, which is lightweight but rich & full sounding.... and the rosewood-fingerboard neck is fast and relatively slim. So, If you're looking for a lightweight, supercharged PJ bass then this is the one for you. I'm not looking to make a profit, just to get what I paid back.... Will consider a trade for a white Alder bodied Fender P bass (Japan or USA) with Rosewood board. To be picked up from London/Surrey border (Epsom/Tolworth area) or Central London. I can also ship at buyers expense and by courier or buyers choice.
  2. As one of my regular gigs is performing as 'Gene Simmons' in Europe's #1 KISS tribute band I have er.... had my [i]fair share[/i] of 'fun' shall we say.... I'm not sure whether it's the 7" monster-head stack heels, the lycra, the studded leather or the make-up that does it... Actually, that's crap.... I know EXACTLY what works.... it's the 'tongue' Playing 'Gene' is the coolest gig..... you get to 'officially' letch as lewdly and blatantly as you like at the ladies of your choice and demonstrate what you'd like to do to them with your tongue..... because "that's what Gene does"!! It's all in the spirit of authenticity don't you know..... The 'encores' can then continue back at the hotel.... though in our case that's normally a Travelodge or B&B... So, is it me they want to be with.... or is it 'Gene'..... or is it just the 'tongue' that they're interested in?! Who knows..... but in all honesty who cares?
  3. Er...... a *[i]bloke down the road[/i]* just received a wonderful bass from a friendly seller in Japan and *[i]apparently[/i]* it got through with NO duty/VAT/Handling charges whatsoever!!! No idea how..... but *[i]supposedly[/i]* it makes up for the few times he's had to pay it recently....

  5. Someone help this guy out.... It's a great amp..... and VERY versatile. For those with endless spare income this would also make a great 'spare/support' amp....
  6. [quote name='99ster' post='35756' date='Jul 22 2007, 11:16 PM']Funnily enough - I just got offered an ex Sex Pistols '74 Precision... for sale at £20K![/quote] That may seem expensive.... but then it won't have been played... Bwah hah hah!!!
  7. Offers are coming in.... ^_^ Bumping for any more interest

  9. [quote name='ped' post='40982' date='Aug 3 2007, 04:34 PM']Oh wow, very nice. I had a 1516BE cabinet and it was amazing. I notice you have one too![/quote] Yep, and a 2x15! Time to streamline a little methinks..... shame to part with it though....
  10. OK, time to slim down some of my backline choice. I have some other potential purchases coming up & could do with the dosh so sadly I've decided to move this on. Here we have an amazing Mesa/Boogie Diesel 600W cab (4ohms) with 6x10" EV speakers, a tweeter and two ports in the rear. Now, as I'm sure you know.... 'EV' loaded Mesa cabs like this (which are no longer made) are widely considered to be the best bass cabs that they EVER made... This cab nails ANY style. The 10's with tweeter are super fast for slap/funk but the sheer density of the cab & the combination of 10's with the ports can also shake your foundations with solid rocking low end loveliness. The whole tonal palette is covered and volume is NOT a problem The cab is in excellent condition, just a few small rips in the outer covering, and is on wheels for easy movement. It IS heavy but it makes up for it's weight in pure tonal quality. Pick up is preferred/recommended from London/Surrey border (near Epsom/Tolworth).

  12. [quote name='dood' post='39741' date='Jul 31 2007, 09:31 PM']Thought I'd take this opportunity to share my imported Jap 70's Fender P. This is a non -export model. How she arrived, looking very Phil Lynott Love her to bits![/quote] Ooh.... now THAT I like!!! How much was it/where from?

  16. Don't worry about the flightcases! Just buy the basses you want, get them to put them into Gator soft (but hard!) flightcases, put some greasy fingerprints on the basses and get the shop to give you a load of stickers to cover them with..... It's worked many times for er.... mates of mine.....!
  17. [quote name='Kubickiboy' post='36536' date='Jul 24 2007, 07:42 PM']Has anybody got/tried a Mesa Walkbout 1x15 4 ohm extension cab? I've got a choice between that and a GK RBX 4x10 8ohm cab. I have a GK 400RBHIII 2x10 combo and an Ashdown Superfly 500 head to match up with them. Help!! I've only got a day to make a choice. Do I match the Ashdown with the Mesa and have a lightweight mini stack and a combo to back up? Or do I get stacking and go with the GK cab, and use the Ashdown head with it for smaller gigs..... A quick response would be much, much appreciated. Cheers! [/quote] Mesa cabs are excellent. That would be my choice.
  18. That's quite a score there!!! Congrats! Looking forward to seeing the final result
  19. Beaver and co are great to deal with and will always try and get you the best deal possible. Highly recommended.
  20. My 'sig' says it all........
  21. Lovely 'Futura'..... is that a bolt on or through-neck?
  22. Have a free BUMP in case it doesn't sell....! It's an excellent bass..... and as mentioned before, your model is actually a Euro5, which is an older (& some say better) model....
  23. Ooooooh! I LIKE that Roscoe.... VERY sexeee
