  1. Super rare and discontinued Cog TK421 X This is well used and has signs of wear but functions perfectly. Price includes UK delivery. Please see my extensive feedback on this forum for assurance. Full description and spec copied from Cog website: For those of you who like a nice, warm, clean bass tone... please go away, you are on the wrong page. This is all about high gain and aggressive bass tones. Based around its baby brother, the TK-421, the TK-421-X goes a few steps further to create a bass distortion that sacrifices the dynamics of the Knightfall family in exchange for huge amounts of biting, barking, snarling, ratty nastiness. Dirt, LPF (LPF-2) and Level are all carried over from the TK-421, as is the internal Range switch for the LPF control (settings for "traditional", stock Cog, and deep Cog). Diode selection is moved to an internal switch for a broader choice, with symmetrical LED clipping as standard. Other options included are assymetrical LED, and both symmetrical and assymetrical Silicon clipping. It is also possible to select no diodes for another flavour, making five in total. Custom diode selection is possible too, just get in touch! Clean blending is included for those who desire it, with the addition of an adjustable low pass filter (LPF-1) on the clean signal to allow the user to choose from a full-range clean blend, all the way through to a heavily-filtered clean sound adding pure low-end and nothing else. This means you can retain the upper-mid bite and leave it unadulterated by clean tones, but still add in clean low end should you feel the need. True bypass switching is handled by relay. All jacks are north-mounted to provide a footprint only slightly wider than a standard TK-421 once the jacks are inserted. * Dirt, Diode Selection, LPF-2 and Range interact to provide a broad range of distortion tones * Adjustable Low Pass Filter (LPF-1) on the clean blend lets you find your own sweet spots to mix with the dirt * 2.1mm Boss-style 9v DC input (power supply not included) * North-mounted jacks to reduce pedalboard footprint * Relay True Bypass * Die-cast Aluminium box Now £250 inc UK postage
  2. Please see my feedback thread for purchasing confidence. Cheers

  3. HX stomp in pretty much mint condition with all boxing and case-candy. Only minimal home use. Latest firmware installed. Price includes UK delivery. My feedback here:
  4. What a beauty this bass is 😍. If I had an infinite Spector budget, I’d be in the car on my way round! GLWTS
  5. How can you tell that’s not his original Spector? Also, can someone point me in the direction of a video clip where Doug plays a more typical lower-register bass groove? Every clip I’ve seen seems to be this wild-effects solo stuff…
  6. Wowzers - 😍😍😍 what a stunner!
  7. Can someone please buy this immediately. Used to own of these, fantastic quality for the price. Sorely tempting!
  8. This is also interesting: https://chucklevins.com/collections/guitars/products/spector-ian-allison-ns-2-signature-electric-bass-guitar-sepia-burst-2-1747?srsltid=AfmBOopW7v0zAu9YY8wD9sfl3gZtxes4xbDuP5ur_De6qzT3iSlZByYM I quite like the Antigua vibe!
  9. I fitted an LHZ in my CRFM euro about 4 months ago, it replaced an EMG BTS and I prefer the LHZ though the BTS was fine. I happened to get my first US NS-2 with a HAZ a few weeks ago and the character of the saturation seems identical to the LHZ, though the NS-2 / HAZ seems to have a higher output volume.
  10. Sold Martin a set of TI flats. No hassle, fast payment, good communication. Cheers Martin 😊
  11. Oh dear - these require refinishing IMO
  12. I had the exact same thought 😂 I’ve had a few Euros and whilst they all sounded great, my keeper is a ‘99/‘00 CRFM that has a slimmer profile.
  13. I love the look of that red CST with the ebony board 😍
  14. @EddieG - Thanks for sharing your experience. I’d noticed some of the Letts offerings on Reverb and they had piqued a little intrigue so I’m glad to have been steered clear. I empathise with your situation, I think most of us have experienced a fair share of loss, be it financial, relational etc. It’s not a nice feeling and we deal with it in different ways. Seems like you lost a positive experience of being built a custom instrument, where you should have been indulged and looked after as a valued customer. I hope you get some closure soon.
  15. Thanks. Do you have any pics of the two you have? I’m curious to see others…
  16. A set of TI JF344 jazz flats. The silks are in good condition with some minor fraying. These have been cut for a 2+2 headstock (so not suitable for Fender type headstocks) Price - NOW £30 includes UK delivery.

  17. Despite being a serial purveyor of bass and long-time BC member, I’ve not posted a NBD before! However, due to the scarcity of reviews for these basses I felt I should add to our collective record here… This appeared for sale in a local music shop here in South Wales, I stopped by to have a look and left with it. The info received so far is that it’s a 1984 Wilkes Savoy Deluxe, alder body, bolt-on maple neck with ebony board. Schaller 232 bassbucker pickups and 2-band (unknown) active eq with passive switching and passive tone control that only works in passive mode. It feels like a high quality instrument, the neck is particularly playable, a slim profile and lovely feeling finish on the back of the neck. Sonically, it’s got a nice resonance to it and very full and fat tone from the dual humbuckers. Lots of tonal options with the 3-way selector switch and a polite eq that works well. I’m looking forward to seeing how it sounds with the band. I’m surprised we don’t see hear more about these lovely instruments! I’d love to hear any others views / experiences about Wilkes basses. And yes, it looks very similar to a Jaydee. Cheers!
  18. I bought a pedal from Adam. Top class BC’er. Good comms, fast delivery, item as described. Cheers buddy.
  19. May have been tempted by a jazz bass. Alas.
  20. I’ve got the EMG BTS preamp in my CRFM euro, I am happy with the sound but I could be tempted to try the LHZ out of curiosity. Can anyone comment if the LHZ is likely to sound more similar to a TonePump or the BTS?
  21. I picked up this 1990 TL5 very recently. Really a top notch instrument… solid maple wings, lovely jet-black ebony board. Can’t fault the build quality on it. The neck is very comfortable with a very flat D profile. Sound-wise, it’s in beefy jazz bass territory. I’m suitably impressed.
  22. I’ve had this little practice amp for years and it’s a pretty decent example from the mid-90’s. All works fine, there is some slight crackle on the input jack when you first plug the lead in. Collection from Cardiff. I would be happy to post at buyers expense but I don’t think this would be cost-effective for an amp of this value…
  23. Akai MPK mini that’s been gathering dust. I’m not quite sure how I tell which MK / version this is ??! I don’t have the USB cable for this but easily available. No box either. Just what you see in the picture. Price includes UK postage.
