  1. I've followed a few of your builds over the year @kevin_lindsay and they always look spectacular. Love the pastel colours too. Great bass.
  2. Yep, lusted after these as a spotty teenager. They also came in Olympic White and Natural too.
  3. Yeah, I've tried multiple basses, cables and cabs. Just needs a competent tech, I suppose.
  4. I'd be interested if you manage to get this resolved. I have an old Peavey valve amp which is making a similar noise, and previous techs have not found any issue with it. Rather frustrating.
  5. I went to the Clash exhibition just before COVID. Serial number is S875618.
  6. This is crazy cheap. Played a few Crew Maniac basses on a trip to Japan a few years back. They're great quality. I'd snap this up if I had some spare cash. Good luck with the sale
  7. Forgot I had this one up for sale, so a quick bump. Great bass, but looking to reduce what I've got. Thanks all.
  8. Just read that Virtuoso not recommended for cracked finishes. Apologies, I should have checked first.
  9. The Virtuoso Cleaner and Polish is good for nitro basses. Fairly pricey, but good stuff. Had mine for years. https://www.theguitarrepairworkshop.com/product-page/virtuoso-cleaner Dr Ducks Axe Wax is also meant to be good. I've got some but not got around to using it yet.
  10. Cioks and Switcher sold. Just true bypass loop left.
  11. Hi folks, Moving on a couple of bits I no longer use. First up is my Cioks Adam power supply. Fits nicely under a PT Nano. It's a few years old now, but it's in excellent condition. Apparently it's discontinued now. Comes with a number of power leads, as well as UK plug and the screws needed to attach it to a Pedaltrain. More info here. £60 posted in the UK - SOLD Next, I have a couple of 'American Loopers' pedals. First is a standard true bypass loop. It has a small scratch on the enclosure, but the pedal works flawlessly. LED is blue £20 posted in the UK. Details here The other one is a 'switcher', which switches between two separate loops. I used it to easily go from one drive pedal to another with one click, as opposed to turning one off, then turning on another. It's in excellent condition. Further details on the AL website here. LED's are red on the left and blue on the right. £40 posted in the UK. SOLD Thanks all
  12. Hi, I use it for band rehearsal now so keeping it for the time being. Thanks for your interest though.
  13. Thanks to @Sparky Mark, I now have a cab up and running! Thank you very much. Hooked up the speakers, tested the ohms on the end of the speaker plug and was getting around 8 ohms, so that was the first good sign. Next, the PP3 test had all speakers moving in the same direction. Added the amp, and now it's making actual sound! The first diagram you shared was more helpful for the 410TX. I only had 4 hookup wires to play with, so perhaps the 410TVX has 5? (judging from the sketched schematic). Regardless, thanks all for your help. Recording next week, so glad it's sorted
  14. Great, thanks. I'll take a look and report back.
  15. How would I do that? I tested each speaker by putting a PP3 on the terminals and they all moved so I'm hoping they're all good. Would plugging in a speaker cable into the jack and using a PP3 on the end of the speaker cable make all 4 speakers move? Thanks for your help!
  16. Hi folks, I picked up an old 90's Peavey 410TX. It's the 8 ohm version, 350 watts. The speakers are currently all unhooked and I'm struggling to find a wiring diagram, or even a similar diagram which I could use. Are there any owners out there who fancy taking the back panel off and taking a few pictures for me, so I can get it up and running again. I'm a little clueless on things like this. Thanks all.
  17. Very nice. I'd seen this too and had some messages with the seller, but like you, it was a fairly hefty round trip. Decided against it in the end. Great price though for a great sounding and looking bass. I picked up a "Commie Red" Dano a couple of months back. Great basses.
  18. Bumping this, open to offers
  19. Bumping this - open to offers. Could consider parting it out, but I'd want to keep the loaded body and tuners together, and the neck separate. Thanks all
  20. I'm pretty sure these are late 70's Monstertones. There was some kind of collaboration around that time between Schecter, ESP and I guess Moon. Hard to find details though. I'm obsessed with Schecter pickups. I've got about 3 or 4 sets of old Schecter pickups from this period. They sound great.
  21. Thanks CH. Unsure if it's slightly overpriced or if the market is just a little slow. Everyone tightening belts for the upcoming utility bill increase, perhaps 🤷
  22. I think they've been going since the 70's. Made in Japan and not hugely common over here. Larry Graham is probably their most famous artist. He used an all white jazz back in the day. They offered a range of pickups, so I assume it's for ease of just dropping different ones in. The base of the bobbins on these pickups are the same outline shape as a pickup cover, so they sit kind of flat against the bottom of the cavity...if that makes sense! There's an old catalogue here which has them in. They were referred to as 'jaggy' pickups, but are basically Schecters/Tom Anderson pickups. https://brochures.yokochou.com/guitar-and-amp/moon/1985/sp_en_09.html
  23. Hi all, I've got a new amp on the way, so making some room. This is an early 1990's Peavey Alphabass head. Fairly rare around these parts. USA-made, 165 watts, rackmountable. Easy enough to carry, even one handed. Serviced last summer and had a few preamp valves replaced and was given a clean bill of health. I shipped this over from Germany at the start of Covid, so it has only had light use since my ownership. Never gigged whilst I've had it. There's not loads of info about these as I don't think too many were made. If you're looking for a reliable, lightweight (for a valve amp!) amp for not too many pounds, you can't go too wrong with this. The case has some scratches, but obviously hidden if it's in a rack. Can get a clean tone by cranking the master and then gain to taste. Doing it the other way, the gain gets quite gnarly early on, but it's more than enough power to keep up with a band. Price is £350, not looking for any trades thanks. I'm not able to ship it right now due to not having suitable packaging, so collection from just outside Leek in Staffordshire is welcome, or somewhere reasonably close to hand over in person is fine. Thanks all
  24. Sounds good. Coalville's not too far from me either
