  1. Studio monitors. Active speakers. Integral gel speaker isolator feet... Brand new in box. Bought as backup set but the other set never broke....never deployed just kept in the box in the spare room. Well thought of and not available for years. Cost over £200 new. Grab yourself a bargain! Also includes brand new unused Superlux HD681 Studio Monitor Headphones! Can post £15 insured.....
  2. Lovely metallic blue finish. Great starter or beater bass. I bought it recently for exactly that purpose and put some hours into tidying it up and put a brand new set of Fender strings (0045 medium gauge). It plays very well, medium action. I've been spoilt by my main bass (a Status Empathy 5) and can't get on with the spacing on the neck. There are a few dings and swirls ( pictured) but nothing that stops the show Comes with a reasonably tatty but emininently usable Ritter gig bag. Great Precision sound for not a lot of cash. Can ship at buyer expense within the UK. I'll ensure its well packed and can remove the neck for additional safety..... But would prefer a meet either here at home in Norfolk ( unlikely I know 😆) or at a station in London ( I work there 4 days a week) that way we're eliminating couriers that have probably had a bad day as it's super busy now for xmas and have reached the end of their patience.
  3. Sorry let me confirm that properly. Looking down at the bass controls from your playing position... in a left to right direction....Volume, PICKUP Balance, Mid Choke ( mid cut) , and finally the control nearest the Jack socket is a conventional ( passive) Tone control which rolls off the treble. Hope that's clearer.
  4. Thank you. Maybe you can clear up who makes the machines on this. They feel great but I have no idea of their origin...😀
  5. OVERVIEW: Lovely example of some of Jon's more traditional work. It's kitted out with the superb Villex Pickups , great as they add a mid-choke in addition to the more traditional hi-choke afforded by conventional passive basses. The Mid Choke enables a smiley eq curve to be achieved with out the noise of an active preamp. This thing has Marcus tone for days...and no batteries required. It also comes with a Genuine Hipshot D tuner, great for those moments when you need to drop the E down to plumb the sonic depths available below conventional tuning. I'm not utterly sure about the reverse machine head origins. I know Jon uses Schaller and Hipshot currently but I don't know if this was the case back then. ABM maybe? There are a few dings on the bottom underside of the bass ( picture) genuine use not designer road rash. There is a ding on the neck just north of the neck plate ( pictured) but due to the thick poly laquer it doesn't reach the wood below, but it's there. TONE: You can dial in Marcus tone Immediately. Especially if you tug on the mid choke. The front pickup gave me a particularly pleasing Robbie Shakespeare dub experience on a session recently. In essence the 70's Jazz tone is there in full effect. It's not a lightweight at 4.5 kg but not a backbreaker by any means. And I've done long gigs with it without issue ( not the same can be said of my go-to, a 5 string Status Empathy 😏) Any further questions ? Then feel free to drop me a line. I'm based in West Norfolk, but travel to London each week to work so pickup is available in two locations. I will post at buyers expense and will pack appropriately. Have a good week!
  6. Immaculate condition hardly used ( I prefer the flexibility of Computer DAW to record these days) includes after market PSU and 32 GB SDHC card so you're ready to go no extras needed. Grab yourself a complete recording studio for £150! Norfolk or London pickup as I work in London. Can post for Cost....
  7. Art Tube interface. Sounds great! Has built in opto compressor /limiter too Pickup in Kings Lynn or in London ( I travel there for work each week) or I can post well padded at your expense.
  8. Battery contacts are corroded ( a relatively easy fix, never bothered me as I use the included aftermarket PSU) Works as perfectly today as it did in 1988. Take a trip down memory lane lol... Pickup from Kings Lynn or London ( I travel to work in London each week) or we padded post at your expense.
  9. Boxed and unused. Bought for my TC BG 250 combo but never used. Collection in Kings Lynn or at a London Station ( I go through Kings Cross every week for work) or can post at your expense
  10. BEQ 700 pedal Great Swiss army knife for those tricky tonal situations...😄 Pick up / drop off (in London )
  11. Squier by Fender Jazz Bass Metallic Red Very Good Condition The Squier Affinity Series J Bass® features a rosewood fingerboard, two single-coil Jazz Bass® pickups and a top-load bridge. COLLECTION / PICK-UP / DROP-OFF in LONDON
  12. Bass Amp setup including: Behringer BX4500H Ultrabass 450W Head Good Condition and a tatty hand built Bass Cab containing an Eminence Kappa 600W 15" Speaker nice and compact if a little heavy! Not a Neo speaker.....😏 Sounds good though! COLLECTION / PICK-UP / DROP-OFF in LONDON Behringer BX4500H Ultrabass 450W Bass Amp: Powerful 450-watt bass amplifier head
  13. Even has one of the bungs in the port!
  14. Trace Elliott made in Maldon All original Trace drivers all working perfectly fine. No issues maybe a bit tatty in the covering but a sound unit otherwise. Pickup only or arrange collection from you favourite courier. Any questions fire away
  15. The bottom bit of a 1210h combo ( so not quite a 2103H but 90% there, but not totally as there's no tweeter control ( but there is still the tweeter) All original trace/celestion drivers and in green carpeting. Pickup only or you can arrange courier collection. Any questions fire away.
  16. Righto Update 1x15 cab is sold! Update Head sold subject to completion. This is a chance to get traditional trace gear in good working condition for a bargain price. PICKUP ONLY..... You'll need a van or a friend with one! Up for grabs is a 4x10 cab, 1x15 cab a 2x10 cab* and a GP12 SMX 280w head* (the head was removed from the 2x10 combo to give more options as a stand alone head) Tatty covering on some parts ( the head especially, nothing a bit of tolex wont sort out) everything working fine. All cabs and amp are the Maldon factory years. All drivers are original Celestion for Trace all work perfectly. Any Questions fire away! Can split but mainly looking to give someone a bargain!
  17. I dumno..it works on my brother's old laptop with Windows XP faultlessly. I managed to get a driver for it to work on Windows 10 for about three days then the inevitable windows update broke it again by replacing the USB driver with a later ( non working version) it's just far easier to have an old cheap ( I see xp netbooks for £30) xp laptop for this and use that....takes all the headache out of everything.
  18. 500 watts into 4 ohms ( 2x250w output) Includes the windows software. Programmable Preamp. Software works a treat on Windows XP not so much on Win 7 and 10.( The driver software is the culprit ........I've heard you can get around it in Win 7 and Win 10 but I gave up trying.....) Small but solid. This is no MarkBass or TE Elf featherweight. Tatty but fully functional. It's gonna be 10-20 quid to ship I should imagine. Open to pickup of course. I work in London so a meet up there is possible as well as here in Norfolk.
  19. Right. The basic cab is a light but strong ply cabinet. Used to house 300 w Fender driver ( heavy but not overly efficient. ) No crossover and vented slots at the front, it’s surprisingly light and sturdy. I upgraded the driver ( at considerable cost) with a Faital Pro 15” HP1060. These are not the cheaper modified FH/PR range you find in the Vanderkley cabs but premium HP range ...offering the same Faital pro sound with elevated power rating. This driver is rated at 1000w ( 2000w peak) and with 97dB sensitivity is an easy drive for lower powered amps. It’s 8 ohms so can be coupled with another cab without killing your amps power stage. Collection from Kings Lynn...audition is possible in a room without other folk. Just you and an amp. ( Social distancing is still key at this time).
