  1. Now Sold. Peavey Mini MEGA bass head, in great condition, perfect working order (1 or two small superficial scratches). Boxed with manual, carry bag and the not so easy to get hold of 5 button footswitch. 1000 watts at 4 ohms, 700 watts at 8 ohms. Tailor the lighting colour to your preference, lots of control plus the rather nice kosmos which I will miss. Usual Peavey build quality and reliability. Only selling as I will now be using my pa power amp (Peavey) dpc1400) for big rig bass duties with a recently acquired 1u bass preamp. Trial or collection welcome from near Daventry. UK only insured postage and packaging is going to be £20.00 118729_34229 (5).pdf

    Starting this thread for Greg after recently purchasing a MarkBass 8x10 cab from him. He wasn't there for the sale in person but went to great lengths to ensure his family could accommodate me trying the cab. Also spoke with him to seal the deal. Great basschatter, deal with total confidence.
  3. Mark recently purchased a couple of Bergantino cabs off me, very smooth transaction no probs,. Deal with confidence. Thanks Mark.
  4. Hi, I guess this went ages ago? Sean
  5. Recently purchased a boss ft-2 envelope filter from Paul, nice smooth hassle free deal. Highly recommended basschatter. Cheers.
  6. Got one recently, I'm really impressed- only tried it at home and in a friends studio. I'm hoping it will come into its own for band practices and gigs. I expect it to replicate the 'Rig behind you' feeling with aplomb.
  7. It was actually a pretty good fit, I didn't have to shave or sand the neck pocket at all. The only minor issue was as the neck was second hand and had existing drill holes (2 of them matched up) I decided to make it nice and solid as there was enough room for 6.
  8. Thanks, wear a dust mask, protective eye wear and gloves, use either machine tools or fine toothed hacksaw files etc. It's an unforgiving material to work with so I usually make card template(s) until I'm happy then go for it with the carbon fibre.
  9. Custom made by me! I had purchased a few sheets of genuine carbon fibre to use for pedal boards and little jobs such as this. I nearly made one for the bell control plate, I may yet but would need to buy another sheet.
  10. Pretty much finished with a lovely set of split coil bartolini's (totally noise free) I have installed recently.
  11. Superb
  12. It's all inescapable! Five or six weeks ago I said to my wife and best friend, "I'm sorted now don't need any more basses and love what I have". A couple of days later I saw a (unique) bass advertised which I had coveted for many years and actually tried five years ago in a music shop. I couldn't afford it then but I can now! So much for good intention, deposit put down, coincidentally the asking price Was £600.
  13. In the late 80's I was a student in Stoke on Trent, still very new to bass and enjoying learning. Route 66 had 2 or 3 Egypt basses in stock, I looked at them a lot! Couldn't afford anything even half the price at the time. Aah.
  14. Thanks Brian, it is indeed very capable.
  15. Ernie Ball volume pedal VP JR model: 6180 high quality pedal in outstanding condition has velcro and little rubber feet on the bottom. Nice smooth action stays where you leave it. Collection welcome or can post in the UK for £8.00
  16. Reluctant sale, something has to go for bass purchase - difficult choice.

  18. I'm fairly sure the late great Jaco Pastorius was a Rotosound endorser. He certainly used them and subsequently there was a set with different colour wraps dedicated to him. Why Jaco? Where to begin? Roto roundwounds on a fretless helped define his sound, flawless timing, great melodic awareness and masterful execution.
  19. Vigier make amazingly playable instruments
  20. Just fitted a passive wiring loom for my jazz build - so much better than the stock item. Thanks John.
  21. I will look into the Herrick pick ups also. Thanks
  22. New wiring harness purchased (through KiOgon John) after that's fitted and when funds allow - planning to get some Fletcher jazz pickups. That will be it, turning out to be quite a 'British' bass build.
