Thanks TheGreek - yes its a great set-up but my needs have changed so seems OTT for a practice rig!

Hi.
I am selling [s]my EBS HD350 and[/s] EBS Neo 210. [s]Both[/s] bought new by me from Bernie at GB guitars.
Good condition in top working order.
[s]After requests - I am prepared to split.[/s] £350 for cab [s]and £300 for the head. Or together = £600.[/s]
Would also look to trade with 5 string Precision.
The EBS brand needs no introduction - and I guess if you are considering this you know the quality of the gear.
Any questions, let me know. Will post pictures later this week.
I live in Oxfordshire and would prefer not to post - but can do at cost.
UK only please!!
Cheers

I use an MB800 with Barefaced S12T - I will never need more power unless I play Wembley - which I won't! If you are sticking with your cab go for the MB500. Overall its the best set-up I have ever used - even though my band mates reckon the amp looks like a cheap aftermarket FreeSat box!!

I have used many octave pedals in the past (including EBS Octabass). The main problem I have found is they lose tracking as soon as a) you speed up and when the note you're playing naturally loses sustain. The Digitech Bass Synth Wah is actually quite a decent octaver (better than it is a synth pedal!) - but only octave down.
By far the best I have used (and still do) is the EHX Micro-Pog. Its tracking is excellent and has a wet/dry mix and octave up and down. I use it to fill my sound out during guitar solos and is the one pedal I would really miss.
However, its all a matter of taste as there is no substitute for trying/hearing them yourself... -
Anyone got any info on this pedal?

Looks interesting to me - but no UK sellers seem to know anything about it. It is available in US and China - no info on when it will be in UK.

maggsybass:
I have been using an MB800 with by BF 2x12 for the past 3 months - (10 or so gigs). It is an absolute monster. The best sounding set up I have had in 25years playing bass. You need to play around with eq settings to remove the top end (if thats not what you want!) - but once you get there- you stay there. the footswitch is a good idea and I use that more than I thought.
Apart from the sound - the look on the faces of stagehands when they feel the lightness of the cab and the size of the amp is priceless!!
Enjoy!

Hi
I am selling my power/pre amp set up.
The power amp is a Crown XLS1500
[url="http://www.crownaudio.com/xls-drivecore.html"]http://www.crownaudi...-drivecore.html[/url]
The pre-amp is Tech 21 Sansamp RBI
[url="http://www.tech21nyc.com/products/sansamp/rbi.html"]http://www.tech21nyc...ansamp/rbi.html[/url]
All in a nice shallow 3u rack
[url="http://www.soundsliveshop.com/p/SKB_Shallow_Shallow_X_Rack_-_3U/SKB-XRACK3"]http://www.soundsliv...-_3U/SKB-XRACK3[/url]
Its all in great working order and is really lightweght for the size/power.
Anyone reading this will know the tone available from the Sansamp (great) and the power available from the Crown (loud). I use it bridged into a Barefaced S12T (great and loud!).
I can take some photos if there is interest.
I do not want to split at this stage.
Let me know if you need any further info. Happy to meet rather than post.
Cheers - Jim -
Skinnyman - many thanks for your reply and your posting.
I have spent more time with this now - and completely agree with you. I have now understood the concept of how it works. It seems pretty versatile and am starting to get the "virtual pedalboard" organised
As with all effects, (particularly multi fx) - you only really know how good a saved patch sounds at gig volume. I had a couple of patches that sounded great through headphones and practice amp. Used them at a rehearsal (at gig volume) - sounded completely different! (and not in a good way). So I think it will take time to fine tune the required sounds - which will need to be done at rehearsal/sound check.
Overall pretty impressed though - although not sure it will replace my stomp-box pedal board.
Thanks again

I took advantage of the deal from GAK and got one of these. I have used it for about 40mins or so - and I find it quite complicated. I have owned Boss multi fx in the past (inc GT6b) and found them far more intuitive than this. I also have an M9 as well which a 3 year old could use. I havent read the manual for the Zoom (obviously!) and will persevere.
I only want to use this for some basic effects (chorus/Octave/reverb/EQ etc) and may gig it so need easy access to the patches. Any fundamental rules/logic from Zoom lovers (apart from RTFM!)??

Have sent you a PM.

It was a great gig last night. The sound was fantastic and the band on top form. Morgan Nicholls should get some "spotlight recognition" though. He is a big part of the sound and looks very busy!!

Just sold my amp to Mark. Great to deal with and easy transaction. Enjoy the amp Mark - and dont forget your ear-plugs!!!
Jim -
This is sold - pending the usual....

Now 6 weeks old!!. No interest? Try a bump before e-bay
Jim -
I am in Oxfordshire but travel around a fair bit.
Jim -
Bump for a powerful bit of kit. Too expensive? Make me a (sensible) offer!!

I have for sale my Hartke LH1000. This is a couple of years old and has always been kept in the rack case and is in great condition.
This is a really clean sounding powerful amp. The only reason I am selling is because I have moved to separate Pre and power amps and so it is surplus to requirements.
£250 or if you don't want the case I am looking for £230. (Still have original box)
This is a heavy beast and so I have not quoted postage. I travel around quite a bit so could arrange to meet if we can find somewhere convenient.
Any questions let me know?
Cheers - Jim -
Hi
Up for sale is my Rhino 3U hard rack case. It is only 4 weeks old. I bought it and then realised I could get away with a shallow case. I did house some amps in it for a few weeks and gigged it twice.
These are the details:

It cost me £55. Yours for £40 plus postage (or happy to meet up somewhere convenient)
Any questions let me know.
Cheers - Jim
