  1. I'm undecided about this however here goes

    4 string custom build Maruszczyk jake finished in black gloss with rosewood board blocked and bound pearl inlays , matching headstock

    Body is alder pick up is haussel split coil , controls are volume tone , neck is 40mm at the nut lovely feel , currently strung with flats does the precision thing really well

    Lots has been written about the quality of these basses and it's all true in terms of value for money.

    Main reason for sale is I have the same bass in white/maple but with a humbucker at the bridge and this is the bass I go back to all the time so as nice as this is it isn't getting the use it should .

    Bass will come with a Maruszczyk gig bag and is priced at £675 firm which will include U.K. Postage

    Only trade I would consider is a precision either fender precision / Lakland BG in black / maple

    Would also consider trade for a Markbass Jeff Berlin with some cash my way if anyone is interested

    Not really bothered if this doesn't sell to be honest

    I`ve got the ABM600 with ABM210/410 cabs, and the RM500 with RM210/115 cabs. Impressions are that the ABM is a bigger sound, and has more presence in the lows when all set flat, but other than that I find them very similar, though have to admit I get my eq from my Sansamp. The only adjustment I make on the amps is on the ABM I back off on the lows to about 10 o`clock, whereas on the RM I leave all at noon. So to answer Peetys question - sortof - not that much difference between the two, though I`m guessing at higher volumes the ABM will fare better.

    Thanks Lozz that's sort of what i guessed i'm in Manchester later so will go and try one out at PMT if it gets anywhere near the ABM then i think i'll probably get one

  3. Has anyone had any experience of one of the RM500 115 combos, currently using a Fender rumble which i really like as its very portable and suits pub gigs i do at the moment

    However always generally had Ashdown ABM amps and i swapped an ABM500 210 for the fender purely for ease of portability, This attracts me because of the weight and the fact i've always preferred 15's to 10's.

    Guess what i'm asking is how these compare soundwise to the ABM'S, would prefer to stick to a combo as i like the ease of the plug and play

    Cheers Steve

    Was it The New Inn?

    Hulton Arms there's another big Pub across the way on the same crossroads at 4 lane ends there not sure what its called but that looked shut or was being refurbished.

    Have no idea why this place has bands on two of the lads in our band used to play in a duo and have played there three times and it was the same then

  5. Had a similar experience earlier this year at a big pub in Little Hulton inbetween sort of Bolton and Manchester audience clientele maxed out at 8 which included a guy who never left the smoking shelter all night just had someone regularly delivering pints to him out there and 3 people round the far side of the bar watching TV meaning the actual audience ranged from zero to 4 despite it being a really rubbish experience for bands how can such pubs justify paying out for a band when they can't even be taking enough to cover the bands fee even before the cost of the beer.

    Have spoken to a couple of other people who have played there and had a similar experience safe to say will not be going back no matter what the payment is despite already having had an agent try to book us in there again.

    That white one is a beauty...

    You're not wrong there Michael have used it exclusively for gigging since i got it from you

    , the new one is a take on a Lakland Duck Dunn i had just a P bass in black but with slightly slimmer neck plus blocked and bound rosewood board which i have to say is stunning. I will really find it difficult to justify buying basses from anywhere else such is the quality for the price

  7. I was quoted 12 weeks but got mine in 9 it arrived yesterday and i have say it's stunning the neck is even better than my other Jake my first custom build previously bought one off the website and my other from Wateroftyne and to be fair all three have been excellent

    was only collected Monday by Fedex 2 days from Germany impressive

    Will post some pictures of the 2 together when i get home later
