  1. Hello friends. I'm selling my girlfriends guitar and amp. Bought brand new from Promenade in Morecambe about a year and a half ago. Both have limited use and are collecting dust now! I'd rather sell as one item and not split and collection from Lancaster would be ideal. This would be great for someone wanting a good soundign guitar or just starting on 6 strings and not wanting to break the bank. Included in the sale are.....stand, the guitar, strap, gigbag, the amp, a lead and ermmm 5 strings (Rotosound 9's). I think it's either the D or G that's on the guitar and not in the pack. Here's a couple of pics! Enjoy! PM me offers! Go!
  2. Hi Nath, I totally forgot about your offer actually! I've just put my name down to try the Barefaced Compact that's going round the country, so it would be excellent to try the bassman when it arrives. Are you up north much these days? If you're interested we could try the Compact with the bassman and sunn PM me if you like
  3. Forgot to say, I'm away most of September so if it's due to come to me in September I'll have to pull out as I don't want to keep hold of the cab for 3 weeks when other people could be using it. I guess we'll know nearer the time whereabouts it is.
  4. Due to various things (not least of which being a pallet of woofers vanishing) revised routes as follows: Route 1: musicman20 cleethorpes casapete hull finbar sheffield sean.robinson rotherham monz barnsley hubrad bradford rik (esa) bradford wateroftyne newcastle delberhot camelon lemmywinks blackpool [b]umcoo lancaster[/b] josh3184 preston guyl manchester bassbunny manchester bass culture chester protium chester mike 257 wirral steve soar wirral I'd like to be added in Lancaster if possible? I'm through in Blackpool quite regularly for work and Preston's 30 mins away aswell. Hope that's ok. Cheers
  5. How dirty can Fender Bassmans get? I've played vegashooker's 135 and it had a wonderful tone, but I can't recall if it was really driven hard. I'm throwing around the idea of a Bassman 70 or 100 and a Barefaced Compact so I can be loud enough for gigs, but get into power amp overdrive pretty easily. Thanks for all the suggestions already, by the way!
  6. I've seen those Mywatts before, but never seen any way to buy one, or even know a price. Any one know? I guess I should just email them
  7. [quote name='Musicman20' post='570703' date='Aug 16 2009, 03:27 PM']Keep gassin! One will come up....then that Pinkerton bass tone is yours [/quote] Haha, I feel you know me so well!
  8. Sudgens just went for £800
  9. Also, I thought Sound Citys were well know for clean sounds. I've got a Pork Loin and a Big Muff to dirty things up, but I want a slightly gritty sound just from an amp, and the pedals to add some more drive.
  10. That SVT 2 isn't far from me at all. About half an hours drive. Isn't too bad a price either, although it'll take a couple of months for me to save up for it. I was thinking of more low wattage amps that I can crank to get a driven sound, kinda 100-200 watts.
  11. I'm looking for a good old dirty sounding valve amp, something akin to Orange or Matmp, but without the huge price tag. What other valve amps are out there that get gradually nastier and ballsier the more gain you add? Go!
  12. [quote name='DHA' post='564666' date='Aug 10 2009, 08:21 AM']I think a few people get confused over this one. In all the VT1 and VT2 pedals when not in by-pass the valve or valves are on all the time and hence there is soft clipping which is what valves do. On the VT1-MK3 model there is also a Si and Ge switch, this does not switch the vlave off but does add Si or Ge diode clipping to the existing valve tone. I hope that helps[/quote] Thanks for clearing that up Dave. I was pretty sure the DHA did have valve clipping. Anyhoot...to the OP, if you can stretch a bit more for a DHA you shall be rewarded with IMO, better tonezz
  13. When I had a DHA VT-1 EQ Drive thingy, I also tried the Muff'n at a music shop, and it seemed to lack a lot of the power and overall tone that the DHA had. Hard to explain, but I knew straight away when I turned the Muff'n on, the DHA was a lot better. Just my two penneth.
  14. It wasn't cheap when I got it, came from Canada and cost me about £150 in total with customs and everything. I've been watching them go on eBay lately, and they're reaching £80-120. Sign of the times maybe? I'm glad I've got it though...sounds like a bitch
  15. I could make a joke about a nice, clean muff, but I won't.
  16. Looking for an overdrive to finish this off...maybe a Pork Loin? Got the NYC custom size a week or two ago, great little essentials board...
  17. Hi all, does anyone have any experience of the faux fender bass tweed cases? There's a few for £45-55 on ebay and they seem ok, but I'd rather know if they were a bit shoddy before shelling out for one. Thanks folks
  18. Sold Myke some Schaller tuners. No problem at all...thanks very much!
  19. That looks good fun! I only live 25 mins from Peter, I would have popped up....for the pie
  20. ok, these need to go now. £30 posted? I'm away the weekend so I'll pick up PM's on Monday. Also got a perfect nick Geddy white pickguard. Tenner posted?
  21. I used to have a 410E, which I think was a pre-cursor to the 410HE. It struggled a bit at gig volumes so I sold it on. It was being powered by a Peavey T-max. I do believe the 410E's were only rated at 250-300watts, whereas the 410HE can handle a bit more. Let us know how you find it, if you pick one up. I'd be interested to see how it handles a bit of volume.
  22. Interesting...in the short video on the site it says '350 watts'...surely not all valve? They look sexy though, a 2x10 combo and a 15 cab underneath would make a great retro rig.
