  1. Hi guys For sale is my GK 700RB bought from CrazyKiwi in 2007 and only used a handfull of times since. That being the case and seeing as I am so lazy I thought I'd nick his blurb from the original ad when I bought it. This hasn't been gigged since I bought it, only used in my music room on low volumes and it is in pretty much 'as new' condition. Crazy's blog: These amps are warm powerful, clean and very articulate, I've found they're one of the few amps I've ever played that will faithfully reproduce any bass I've plugged into it from a flatwound loaded Celinder p-bass all the way to an Alembic, Smiths and Celinder Jazz. The wedge shape means I can hear myself superbly on stage with it and I have NEVER lacked for volume in any pub/club gigging situation. Competes easily with guitarists and their 100w Fender Twins. If you have a warm sounding bass or use lots of effects then this is a great amp - nothing else I've tried my Smiths through sounded as good because of how the mids are preserved. If you have an aggressive sounding bass - say one with a graphite neck, you might find the high end is a little too much on a flat setting but you can turn down the tweeter independently! Heck there's even a control for boosting growl! Output is rated at 480w at 4ohm (with a 4ohm extension cab plugged in). Adding a 2x10 easily creates the best on stage sound I've ever experienced. Here's some blurb from the site: The Artist Series RB combos put full-featured Artist Series heads into professional combo enclosures in a variety of speaker options. All are designed for easy transport, ruggedness, compact size, tilt-back use, and to deliver the warm tone and output that leads to exceptional musical perfmance. The 1001RB and 700RB are bi-amp units that come with horn-loaded enclosures and are able to drive horn-loaded cabinets from the Artist Series RBH cabinets. For pro-peromance in any size venue, the Artist Series combos provide the best in bass sound and are priced to rank among the best values in bass gear. POWER 90dB, Clip LED, -14dB Pad, Volume, Mute Switch and Mute LED VOICING FILTER: 5/4 String Voicing, Adjustable Contour and Presence EQUALIZER: In-Series Four Band Active OUTPUT: Boost, Tweeter Level with Hi-Cut Switch and Woofer Level with Hi-Cut Switch DIRECT OUT: XLR, Ground Lift, Pre/Post Switches and Level Control PATCHING: Send, Return and Tuner Out SPEAKER OUTPUT: Two 1/4" and Two HMS-compatible Speakon Connectors WOOFER: 1xGK-Paragon 15B400-8 Cast Frame 15", 400W, 8 ohm High Presence Voice Coil TWEETER: GK-Paragon 5H50-8 CONSTRUCTION: 11-Ply Poplar, Black Carpet, 16 Gauge Steel Grill, Lock 'N Roll Transport System, Custom Tooled Interlocking Corners, Front Ported WEIGHT: 77 lbs DIMENSIONS: 21.75"W x 24.75"H x 18"D I can't ship this, it's just too heavy and it would cost a small fortune. If you want to arrange carriage from your end I will gladly package it up best I can (TNT may offer a cost effective service!) Collection is fine or I'm willing to travel up to 50 miles from Stockton on Tees to meet up/deliver. Will be putting this on Evilbay shortly but will give BC members first dibs Looking for £300 or vvvvvvvno Also selling my Yamaha BB-NE2, have a look under basses for sale
  2. Ok guys.... I'm finally gonna do it....... 2006 Yamaha BB-NE2 black with gold hardware. Absolutely mint condition including unblemished original Yamaha hard case. I bought this from EBS_freak November 2007 and haven't realy given it the use it deserves. I have only played it a handfull of times and other than that it has just made my wall look very, very nice. I haven't picked it up now for at least 12 months but just checked it.and it's still in tune!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been too busy with work for the past couple of years to play and when I can find the time I tend to reach for my trumpet! So have decided to give up on the stringed stuff and concentrate on blowing!! Anyhoo........ Pics are attached, any inspection welcome and I will securely ship anywhere in the UK for £10.... or you can come and collect her. I won't witter on about this, if you are interested you know what you are looking at, £2,000 plus worth of amazing, and gorgeous bass. I'll also throw in £40 worth of Fender Platinum bass lead I just bought when I had a spurt of an idea I was going to start playing again. You can get me on 01642 739090 or 07866 741098, pm me here or email [email protected] I'm looking for £999 which I personally think is a bargain!

  3. [quote name='micanton' post='120743' date='Jan 15 2008, 12:49 PM']Hi wonderful Bass..... Is it still for sale?[/quote] Yep... still for sale (with interest though!) Cheers Paul
  4. Can't believe this hasn't moved yet!!!! there's usually a fight over these things....... This is still available £350 shipped. Brand new still in factory sealed box... I've gone down the combo route so I just don't really need it although I'm not gonna do endless re-lists on ebay and keep reducing the price! at £350 I'm down £20 and not willing to lose any more. Can take Paypal if that helps, if any Basschatters want it just let me know... if it doesn't go soon I probably will just keep it in my studio so don't expect to find it a a knock down price the other side of Christmas! There was no point taking photos as all you would see is a brown box with 'Avalon Design' written on the side. For more info go to: [url="http://www.avalondesign.com/instrudi.html"]http://www.avalondesign.com/instrudi.html[/url] All Avalon equipment is usable worldwide as it is switchable between 110 & 230v. This one comes already set at 230v with a UK plug... Oh yeahhh and it's also the brand new one with the blue switch lights rather than the amber ones shown on the web site. Jingle bells Paul!
  5. Brand new Avalon U5 on ebay item #280179480659 Paul

  7. Ok.... now reduced (won't be going any lower than this.... I'd rather keep her!) £749 plus £25 towards shipping. Paypal accepted Cheers Paul
  8. OK boys and girls, you will have no doubt heard of the Avalon U5 DI box / pre amp. For those that haven't and those that have details can be found here: [url="http://www.avalondesign.com/instrudi.html"]<a href="http://www.avalondesign.com/instrudi.html" target="_blank">http://www.avalondesign.com/instrudi.html[/url]</a> This is the DI of choice of some of the really big guns..... Geddy Lee & Nathan East to name but a couple. The unit is critically acclaimed by the entire industry as being the best you can get!!!! The U5 is also a superb pre-amp if you are running a pre/power set up! I have one of these babies on it's way in from the states (as it's pro gear, all Avalon gear has switchable voltage so no silly 110v problems!) It's the latest model with the blue buttons and I expect it to be here within about 10 days! Now I have agreed to relieve Warwickhunt of his Blackcat I don't need both..... ok I can't afford to keep both so the Avalon is up for sale. I am going to take the customs hit on this when it arrives so I'll let it go for £330 plus £10 shipping. That's cost! First come first served..... Obviously no cash to change hands until it is safely in the UK and ready to ship to the buyer. No point posting any pics as a) I haven't got it to take pics of and it's brand new so just check out the website as above. Cheers Paul

  10. [quote name='EBS_freak' post='83999' date='Nov 5 2007, 03:06 PM']Thank Paul - nice doing business with you! Enjoy![/quote] You too Russ..... I will..... It may well become 'available' again shortly though as I am having a MUCH harder time getting my head round that extra string than I thought I would!!!!! even when I just use it as an anchor for my thumb my brain just won't let my fingers go where they should!!!! I'm not going down without a fight though, I'm gonna give it 2 weeks before I decide for certain. So boys and girls, keep an eye out, she maybe back up for sale. If anyone wants to register thier interest early just in case please feel free!! I must say though Russ..... what a beautiful, beautiful instrument..... and the tone.......... never mind plays like butter the sound melts like it too... just awesome.... Why oh why don't they offer this in a 4 string!!!!!!??????? It really is the mutts!!!!!! Cheers Paul
