Mr Bassman

[quote name='Mr Bassman' post='225366' date='Jun 23 2008, 08:57 PM']This is a great sounding American made, lightweight portable rig for smaller venue or larger venue with F.O.H. P.A.

The small head comes with an Ampeg gig bag.

The cab has a removeable trolley style telescopic handle, and a tilt back handle underneath, rated at 400w it has 2x10" neo drivers and a variable h.f. unit.

Open to offers or trades for Markbass 2x10 or 1x12 combo, acoustic image, a.e.r. or anything upright.
Original r.r.p. was around £699 each (as far as I can remember) May split.

Can take to bash on Sunday! would prefer local pick up or delivery.

I took it to the bass bash but nobody bought it 'cos they spent all their money on beer & raffle tickets!
So it's still available

Rhino had one of these set-ups at the Yorkshire Bass Bash on Sunday.
Incredible depth and punch for such tiny speakers!

Well I had a focus estate and my bass would only go in diagonally on its side. (it is larger than the average 3/4 bass)

The problem with most estates is that the rear seat cushion has to be folded forward, which means you lose a few inches or you've got to lift the pegbox over it, which isn't good for the neck of the instrument, or your own back.
I find the easiest way is to lift and put the body in first.

I took my bass round all the showrooms to try and find the ideal car, and the one that came out best was the Mondeo est so I got one.

To make even more room with the flattest floor area I take out the rear cushion altogether. (I don't have to use it for running kids around)
It leaves a handy space for leaving spare cables et.
I can now fit in my double bass, bass amp & cab, p.a. system + stands, keyboard + stand, a few lights and the keyboard player and get 55+mpg.

Hope this helps

[quote name='BigBeatNut' post='228719' date='Jun 28 2008, 09:10 PM']I feel sure my ancient escort estate will fail it's upcoming MOT, so I'm looking for ideas for a 2nd hand car that's big enough (just) to transport a 3/4 upright plus small amp (markbass 1x12).

How small can i go ?

Or, how small do YOU go ?

Cheers, Andy[/quote]
[attachment=10131:moped.jpg]

Who needs a car?
unless of course youre two tyred!

Just a quickie to say thanks Keith for fixing the bash and all the hard work you put into it!

Hope the wedding went well.

See you at the next one

Hi Jez,
if you can make it to the Yorkshire Bass Bash next Sunday I can take my Yamaha SLB 100, NS CR4 and a double bass for you to try.

cheers
Keith

[quote name='niceguyhomer' post='226406' date='Jun 25 2008, 08:07 AM']I have no choice but to go light. I'd love a Berg 6x10 and a valve head but I'd be in a wheelchair by Christmas. We rehearse upstairs and my den - where I keep all my gear is upstairs - even my Bergie 1x12s were too heavy and had to go.

If I do a double gig weekend, I can't stand straight on Monday. I have shoulder problems and may have to look for a silly light bass (like a Sadowsky :brow: ) when I get back off holiday.

You young'uns may laugh but have the ointment ready cos it's comin' to you soon.[/quote]
If you like Fenders you might like an Aerodyne

[quote name='Bernmeister' post='225573' date='Jun 24 2008, 02:31 AM']Hi All,

I must say that i've done some deals with Keith in the past & i can honestly say he keeps
his gear in top condition, he's a very friendly geezer & very easy to deal with.

Best of luck with the sale / trade Keith.

Cheers Bernie[/quote]

Thanks for those kind words Bernie.

Anyone thinking of dealing with Bernie should have no worries, he's a great guy!

Scanner not working, I need to find a driver or do something to my system.ini, & I'm off out soon.
Might get chance tomorrow.

[quote name='JD1' post='223723' date='Jun 21 2008, 06:08 PM']Sorry Stevie I haven't got a scanner. Can anyone else help out?[/quote]

I'll have a go, if my scanner still works.

A threesome with Angie Shaw eh? Well some guys have all the luck!

Pop round sometime and have a go if you like Phil.

[quote name='JD1' post='223466' date='Jun 21 2008, 10:56 AM']Hi Folks

Anyone got a transcription for Stormin Norman's 16th fest?

Alternatively I'm sure it has been covered in one of the bass mags over the years and I still got most of them - anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers

John[/quote]

The full notated transcription with tab was in Bassist issue 11 1995.

I have a copy if you can't find it.

I used to play it on my Wal 6 string with a band around 96/97

Washburn Bantam: more photos [url="http://myweb.cebridge.net/gareth/gbay/washburn_dblneck/index.htm"]here[/url], though the associated eBay ad is long gone. Hippie not included.

Also, a web search found [url="http://www.musicianscandystore.com/shopexd.asp?id=1157"]this thing[/url]. Don't know if I like the angle between the necks..?
[/quote]

I've got a Washburn as in the photo, and I'm in Harrogate!

I was going to take it to the bash next week.[attachment=9873:misc_084.jpg]

It sounds like an Ampeg. I can't get a bad sound out of it.
I haven't used for a year or so. I had it in the spare rackspace in my S.W.R. Redhead going into the effects return.
I'd play fretted Fender P or Wal through the Ampeg and fretless or upright through the Redhead, it made a versatile set-up.
I sold the Redhead to Bernmeister last year and put The SVT in a rack and it hasn't been used since.

cheers
Keith

Harrogate, about 30 minutes from Leeds
