Thanks / totally agree Richard ! .. you seem to be encountering a similar problem with the Valenti (?). The Bassline basses are not so well known (no dealer/distributor here) but have similar build quality to other small German luthiers/Co.'s. Here's one of their 'Worp' models, that I'm keen to checkout in the future (... although the current rrp. is around €4k !). The Valenti looks great - can't think of many other handmade/quality J's you could get for that sort of price (!).

I'd forgotten all about this - it's over a year old now! ... I'll check re. the RockSchool books (and the others) and update the post.

The Puma combo 210 is fitted with newly designed TecAmp 10” bass speaker chassis that work in meticulously calibrated enclosures to deliver expanded low end. The combos feature the new NTM-1 middle-high cone speaker with a Neodymium double magnet system. Working in a sealed enclosure it impresses with a low roll-off frequency and a very flat frequency response, thus delivering a smooth top end far beyond 10 kHz at astounding sound pressure levels. Puma combo boasts an external Speakon® output for the connection of an additional speaker cabinet. The handle on top and the castors at the Puma combo 210 allow an easy handling.

Current price: £1399 (GAK / Bass-Merchant) - appreciate that these were (a while ago) 'cleared' by Gtr.Gtr. but I didn't get mine there... As-new condition. via Courier, or can reduce appropriately if collected (also OK to meet up in Cleveland/TS area). I don't have the original box (do have the manual, lead etc.) but will find/create one to fit, with plenty of bubble-wrap and handle(s) accessible for easy transporting.

[quote name='dr1' post='825559' date='May 2 2010, 03:07 PM']what an instrument!!! Celinders are such a top notch! the price is more than a fair! have a bump from me.[/quote] .. thanks dr.1 !! ....

Thanks Werner .. and I 'feel your pain', both personally and empathetically: it's an exceptional and uncommon bass, which I'd love to keep had I the option.

[quote name='aznbass' post='818254' date='Apr 25 2010, 06:05 PM']Thats really cheap for this bass, I wouldnt go so low my friend, someone will want it.[/quote] Agree / ... hope-so! (... and Thanks) I'm dropping the price to a simple £999 (incl.) o.b.o. (although I did try it lower than this to match the previous ebay listing) - it's an exceptional bass at the price and in comparison with others in the same price range (the bass, originally, being €2k+, of course). It's worth checking-out the Bassline link(s) in the OP as they give some idea of the build concept and quality, and also have some sound-clips. [b]£999[/b] (incl.) o.b.o.

Carlsbro Cobra Bass 112 Combo Size: H=26inch. W=18.5inch. D=12inch Weight: about 50lb (22kg) Power: 90w EQ: 5 push button - band pass filters + high mid & low plus "Deep" switch Speaker: 12inch (150w. Rated) Other: Tolex (not at all bad for age, with some nicks/repairs) + plastic/rubber trim. This amp was made quite a few years ago but remains in pretty good condition. Carlsbro sturdiness & reliability. The 12" speaker (replaced/upgraded) is loud, and the unit features 5 band pass filters, plus Hi Mid & Low EQ (rotary), which is more than adequate. Plus the "DEEP" switch, akin to a turbo-boost Bass. You can also use the D.I.-out, and plug into the P.A. The layout is very easy to understand, and is placed on the top of the cab', so there is no bending down to view or change any of the settings. The old, original cover and speaker were a bit tired, so were replaced with a an Ampeg(Eminence) 150w/8-ohm rated better-quality bass speaker and a smooth, black cloth cover. Something of a classic unit and also reasonably portable in terms of size and weight. Good for small venues and practice. Collection/meet-up (north-east) prefered but would be able to package/send if required. I've had this for quite some time and haven't used it for ages ... so really looking to get-rid. Will be willing to accept any reasonable offer (collection/meet-up preferred but not essential)

Thanks Jon ! .... it's certainly unusual, but ESP's (of the era) seem to be well-made instruments.

[quote name='molan' post='786342' date='Mar 25 2010, 09:11 PM']How do you always find such interesting basses![/quote] ..?! ... I always think the same about yours (!).... I suppose I've always been willing (keen, even) to try something new, different and relatively unknown: occasionally disappointing, but generally OK-to-good (or better). This one was offered as a trade - there don't seem to be many BassLine instruments in the UK, but it's an easy one to research and the photos/specs reflect the quality. A while back I also had one of their headless/slimline/slab basses (a bit like a mini-eub)

This is a 'last-in/first-out(+trade)' bass sale for a really nice instrument which I'd love to keep (as I've not found a better 'PJ') .. but I need the funds and tend to use my 5's and other 4(s) more.

[quote name='pantherairsoft' post='781869' date='Mar 21 2010, 06:09 PM']Oh damn you....[/quote] ... sorry ! .... but it's best off with somebody who's more into 6'ers.

Celinder Custom 6 :- Mahogany Body Koa Top w/matching Headstock veneer, rear and trussrod covers. Maple + Purpleheart Neck with Ebony Board 36" scale (but very comfortable - also contributes to the crisp, clean tone and well-defined 'B'. Tone is described as a previous owner as 'somewhere between and Smith and an Alembic' .. which can't be bad) Nut: 2.125"; f24: 3.25" String-spacings: 9mm (nut); 16.5mm (f24); 19mm (bridge). Weighs 11lbs. Glockenklang 3 band preamp (The original Greengrove preamp was, apparently, damaged and replaced with Aguilar, then later by the current GlockenKlang). The G-Klang Circuit diagram is included: it's one aspect of the bass which, IMHO, could be improved. There is Vol., Pan, Mid(s) and stacked Bass/Treble .. But the circuit doesn't work as clearly as I would have expected [been playing it with Bass on max, a little treble and about 55% Mids - the mid section is very powerful. Finding that with the SC's switched-in the volume is quieter in the centre position, like the old SC circuits; with HB's switched-in, the volume is quietest in the centre and gradually boosts when a single pickup is selected] Celinder (Kent Armstrong) radiused dual coil pickups (coil tap with small Fodera coil tap switch) Black hardware - original Bridge Near mint (a small nick at the headstock and upper horn) / all original other than the EQ and Bridge. Excellent build quality (as always), exceptional playability and a pretty rare find - there don't seem to be many Celinder 6's about . This is not the 'Aura' model; it is a Custom 6. TKL hardcase. This came to me via a recent (International) trade and, as I'm not much of a 6-string player and don't have the time to dedicate in progressing with this bass, is now offered for sale. I do have more photos (PM with email if required).
