  1. Hi, I have an Eden metro Combo for sale they are £1600 new and I am looking for £750. After selling my Trace Ellioy Ah600smx with 4x10 and 1x15 I needed something smaller as the rig was killing me and I couldnt get it in the car, I went to the bass centre to buy a SWR redhead combo, they had an Eden in as well so I tried them both together..... I went off to the bank and got the eden, no contest at all, its awesome. It has a solid state side to the amp and a seperate valve side so you can have whatever sound you like. The sound is immence and as a 210 rig it blows away anything you come accross in pubs and clubs of a much bigger size. The speakers have been totally rebuilt by Surrey amps at a cost of £340.00 and they have not even been played through yet, they are breaking in at the moment in my garage. The speakers will have a full guarantee from Surrey amps the Eden recommended engineers (who do all the bass speakers for genesis etc) I have a 115xl for sale as well if you need to beef up the volume for £275.00, I would expect the combo to handle most gigs in pubs etc or add the 115 for clubs and open air festivals, if you want to go insane I have a huge 215xlt for sale for £350, the 215 and metro will tear peoples clothes from them if they get too close. All items are available to try and I have some other Eden cabs not for sale but you can mix and match them around to see what they sound like together, I have a 210xst, 210xlt, 410xlt. Please drop me a line if you are interested and check out the spec on the Eden web site, they have some great info on the site and some reviews of the metro .

  4. Eden, dont settle for anything less
  5. When I first got my eden gear I was dissapointed as I couldnt get it to sound how I wanted, I had to go back to basics and after possibly 10 gigs I started to learn how to influence the sound properly, now I wouldnt go near anything else, I get compliments on my sound all the time from other bass players with just a T bird going in direct with no effects. I had a blow out the other day and dug out my trusty Trace Elliot ah600smx head and 4x10 cab and cant believe how crap it sounded by comparison. I also had a mate come over with his EBS rig, he had a 2x12 and 2x10 cab with the latest EBS head and I set it up next to my WT550 and a 6x10 set up, we set bith rigs to a flat EQ and tried a MM sterling and T bird. like for like both set flat the Eden rig sounded far far better in my opinion, clearer, punchier and just better
  6. I play my gibson t bird every week and love it, its a one trick pony and does what it does, plays rock, yes the neck dives terribly and is a pain but I am used to it now. You cant get as much variation in sound as an active, I have a warwick $$ had a musicman, have a jaydee but I still grab for the t bird when its gig time. the neck is surprisingly fast and slim more like a J neck than a P, I love mine to bits.
  7. go for an eden 212xlt simply awesome and comes in 8 or 4 ohm
  8. Well I have given it a bloody good ironing and it didnt work sorry, if it did it wasnt noticable. I tried differing heats and pressures but it didnt lift any out, some scratches are quite deep though. I have stripped the whole thing down, cleaned it up and polished it and we are looking a bit better. I think my 3 year old daughter has disposed of my sharpi black pen so I will test that out tomorrow and let you know how it works
  9. Hi, I have just picked up a black warwick $$ and it looks like it has been a bit roughly treated, it has a lot of scratches that look silvery to the eye, has anyone had any sucess (or failures) at trying to clean these off? Any help appreciated Regards
  10. [quote name='simon1964' post='385040' date='Jan 19 2009, 03:13 PM']Since my earlier post, I've done a deal on a Stingray. Given my "agreement" with Mrs 1964 (1 bass in = 1 bass out....), my $$ will be up for sale again as of tonight. If anyone wants one at £450 PM me![/quote] is it 4 string and what finish is it?
  11. [quote name='benwhiteuk' post='384818' date='Jan 19 2009, 11:36 AM'][s]The big question is…Corvette or Streamer? The Streamer would be worth a tad more – about £50 maybe. [/s] Corvette - doh, I just skim read it Do you definitely want the $$? I might have something Streamer shaped if you were interested, but it’s not a $$. I've been after a Sterling for a while...[/quote] I would be interested, what is it you have?
  12. I have a mint EB MM sterling 4 in blue and a guy wants to swap so I could do with an idea on how the money will work out, I was guessing at £700 for the MM and £450 for the $$
  13. Hi, What would be the going rate to buy a warwick corvette $$ in black, 6 months old, good condition? Thanks Rob
  14. I have one that I imported, its a good bit of kit, works well and I have'nt been nicked by the frequency police or anything

  16. I have a blue MM sterling that I want to get rid of as I want to try a $$ if ytou fancy a trade
  17. I have a metro and a WT 550, I use a 4ohm 210xst and a 210xlt for smaller giggs and up it to a 410xlt/210xst for bigger gigs, I also run a 215xst and 115xl for rock gigs and I can generate any sound I have ever wanted from real 70s rock to ultra slap, I find you need a sh*t load of cabs to choose from if you are playing a lot of styles and the amp is not as important as good cab choice to match
  18. the strings are DR peacock blues and look quite cool, the sterling is smaller and has a different neck more like a J neck The Jaydee is my first love and not for sale, sadly I only play rock now so I get the piss taken when I use it so I tend to use the T Bird as my main bass but its like playing a plank
  19. [quote name='bassaussie' post='362128' date='Dec 23 2008, 04:34 PM']Don't mean to be critical, but I think you're going to have a hard time being heard with such a small rig! [/quote] I was going to do a pic with all the eden gear stacked up for a laugh before I sell it off, I might even wire the whole lot up and see what happens !!
  20. Good as new I only used it on 4 gigs and went back to the thunderbird. Mint condition includes hard case, paperwork and the cleaning cloth etc. collection Blackburn. e mail me for any details etc [email protected] also selling some quality Eden cabs and amps if you look in the other section £700.00 I can e mail a load of pictures if required
  21. The mm is mint and like new, it has brand new strings, case, cloths and paperwork and in great condition, I bought it and played about 4 gigs with it and not used it since. Price is going to have to be 700. The cabs will be as follows 115xl £275.00 215xlt £360 Metro combo £550.00 the rrp on these is now £1699.00 !! any info further please e mail me [email protected] Collection from Blackburn Just so you know what you are getting here, I played in a rock covers 3 piece and used to run just the metro on its own as it will be fine for any UK pub gig, add the 115xl for some extra bottom end and volume and this will do any club or hall easy, add the 215xlt and you will able to move people not just air! its awesome loud. If you want to try mixing things round I have a 210xlt a 210xst and a 410xst (all 4 ohm) and a WT550 so you can try different cab systems and power units together
  22. I have a few different cabs etc and I need to clear a few of them out, if anyone is interested please drop me a line or make an offer, I would also look at a trade as I need to try a warwick double buck or simlar. I have the following for sale 115xl great cab solid deep tone 8 ohm 215xlt awesome monster cab massive old school sound for rock 8 ohn metro combo with 210xlt speaker, simply the most powerfull combo on the market and will take either of the above cabs as an extension. See Eden web site for full details Also have a MM sterling in blue 4 string to clear out

  24. [attachment=1702:14.jpg]The only 2 guitars of my collection that I play with on a regular basis is a Jaydee supernatural Mark King that I have had since 85 and a 92 gibson thunderbird. The jaydee is better than any other guitar I have played and makes the T bird feel like a plank !
