Sensing a theme in the classifieds at the moment...
cetera replied to therealting's topic in Amps and Cabs
Yeah, I noticed this last night. It was the same thing with EBS a few years back..... fads in gear come and go..... the EBS stuff had some nice character though. Never liked Markbass myself (YMMV) so doesn't bother me. I predict the same for Darkglass in a year or two.... -

What famous musicians death most shocked you
cetera replied to dmccombe7's topic in General Discussion
Eric Carr of KISS. I grew up loving KISS and Eric looked amazing and pounded those drums like an animal. Most of all though - he was the loveliest guy you could hope to meet. I was lucky enough to do so in 1990 when I went to the States and saw (what were to be) his last 3 shows ever.... such a friendly, genuine and down to earth chap :( What made it worse was he died on the same day as Freddie Mercury so his passing was all but drowned out in the media.... -

@therealting - cabs are standard 4x12 cab size (approx 32" wide/high by ?5 or 6" deep) and not heavy (sorry - can't get to weigh them at present as they are at storage). Obviously they are just the very front of Marshall cabs, so no speaker, magnet or side/back of cabinet weight to worry about! Heads are approx 29.5" wide and 11.5" high. Again, only approx 4" deep....

Want a full size fake Marshall stack or 2 fake half stacks for your stage show? Or simply want them to decorate your house or studio? Then here they are....! These are basically just the genuine cut-off fronts of empty heads and cabs - used on Marshall trade stands and NOT available for public purchase! They look GREAT onstage and fill empty/awkward stage spaces with an authentic rock/punk classic visual! Cash on collection from Stoneleigh near Epsom, Surrey. Please see my extensive positive feedback thread for assurance of a clean, honest transaction.

Great - the positioning of the Dunlop strap locks (and the small headstock) means it balances nicely!- 33 replies

Just arrived this weekend after a year long wait since ordering..... a fantastic flipflop blue/purple Dingwall Dbird Standard! Loving it.... particularly the sound with all 3 pickups on! Solid lows, glassy highs and piano-tone tight mids.... mmmm.... Thanks to Mark at Bass Direct for sorting this for me 🙂

I LOVE this bass...... but need to move it on to clear some funds for a possible upcoming purchase. I'll be sad to see it go as it is a FANTASTIC, high quality and incredible value for money bass with a monstrous selection of tones on board.... but needs be.... Often compared to basses 3 or 4 times it's price and always comes out on top! Body Material : North American Alder which is known for its strong clear full-bodied sound, with beefy mids and excellent lows - perfect for the traditional jazz bass sound. Neck Material : 1 Piece Hardmaple Neck Shape : C-Shape Scale : 34” Fingerboard : Rosewood Fingerboard Radius : 7’25” Frets : Medium Small, 20 Frets String Nut : Natural Bone 38mm width - considered to deliver more balanced, clearer and smoother tone than plastic or eurite material Binding : 1 ply Ivory Inlay : WH Pearloid Block Neck Joint : 4 Bolt Steel Square Plate Pickups : Marcus Super Jazz pickup set made with US fomvar coil, fibre bobbin and alnico 5 magnets in order to reproduce the traditional vintage jazz bass sound. Electronics : 18V Marcus Heritage 3 Band Preamp with Middle Frequency Control and active/passive switch Controls : Volume / Tone (Dual Pot) | Pickup Blender | Treble | Middle / Middle Frequency (Dual Pot) | Bass, Mini Toggle (Active / Passive ) Bridge : Heavy Mass Standard with string-thru-body capability Tuning Gear : Premium Open-Gear Hardware Finish : Chrome Pickguard : Tortoise Condition is excellent/mint minus as it's really only had home/studio use. Controls are all solid and reactive, though vol/tone pot feels a little looser than the rest. Currently strung with 45-105 roundwounds. Payment by Cash (on collection), Bank Transfer or Paypal (you pay any/all fees). I can meet/deliver within the South East for agreed fuel cost or can courier at cost to be agreed with buyer. Please see my extensive feedback for assurance of a clean, honest transaction. Thanks!
