I am trying to find the best Inexpensive Machine Heads/Tuners for a 10 string project, 5 left side, 5 right side. Any ideas, as I'm not a bass player.

I've got a Subzero Pad800 Class D power amp, the fans are noisy, but you can replace them with noiseless fans, I used Noiseblocker fans. https://www.blacknoise.com/site/en/products/noiseblocker-it-fans.php?lang=EN

Sold, many thanks.

Yes, the Double Bass is still for sale.

Thanks, I've just posted it on the BC Marketplace for £1200. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/326260-double-bass-carved-wood/

I swapped a guitar for a Double Bass on this forum many years ago, the detailed info about the Bass is in this link here: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/72702-german-mittenwald-double-bass-100-120-years-old/?tab=comments#comment-929041 I've kept it in a bedroom for years and occasionally wiped the dust off it with a cloth. I know nothing about Double basses, I'm a guitarist. It also has a very sturdy soft black Double Bass case made by Tom and Will. Pickup from Warrington £1200 Many thanks. Guy

I was thinking about putting it on ebay, but didn't know a starting price. It's been stuck in my bedroom too long, it needs to go............

Ok, I was thinking about £1200, I might be totally wrong, but this was the approx value of the guitar I swapped for the double bass.

Thanks.

I would sell the amp and speaker separately for £225 each plus postage. Sold Gum tree

Excellent condition TC Electronic Bass Amp and RS410 (4x10inch) 600 Watt speakers. £450 plus postage for amp and speaker cab or £225 for each item plus postage. Warrington, Cheshire, if you prefer to pick them up in person. The Amp has been used for practice/rehearsal sessions only, no gigging and the Speaker has never been out of the house, so both items are in excellent condition. Both items are made with exceptionally high quality and were expensive when new. The Classic 450 has a great sound, just read the reviews online. The RS410 Speaker has a great sound, just read the reviews online. The RS410 Speaker is currently selling at £570 new.

[quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1445424842' post='2891317'] Nice looking bass. Are you sure it's from Mittenwald though? I'm no expert, but it has a lot of similarities to my own bass (general outline, beech neck, no external linings) which luthiers have generally estimated to be from the German/Czech border region rather than further south in Mittenwald. [/quote] Good point. Thanks, I'll edit the post. It states in the original post "The bass is a German 3/4 flatback, believed to be from the Mittenwald area.".

The paradox of time is that it's a concept that doesn't really exist....................
