ON HOLD

Another black mark against Rickenbacker and their moronic CEO

Not a problem, i'll take a whole set of detailed photos tomorrow as soon as i get in from rehearsal. there are a couple of scratches on the body and one or two on the fingerboard but thats more or less it. Some of the finish on the ramp has worn away (paint plus roundwound strings....) but this would be a really simple case of respraying. Its all cosmetic, it doesnt affect sound/playability in any way

Hey Stuart, ive emailed you about the RH 450

Hey bud, im based in Yorkshire, but i'm also in the greater manchester area a fair bit if thats any good to you?

Is this still for sale??

End of weekend bump, anyone potentially interested?

I have a rosewood ramp fitted to my streamer LX6, I had Jon Shuker make the ramp for me and its fixed to the body with double sided tape. If you want a fixed ramp, the main thing to know is how close do you want the surface of the ramp to the strings

Good call, i'll get some photos up tonight!

Cheers, it sounds great and plays very well. The spacing is ideal if you're looking to have a crack at playing a 6er after playing on 4 strings. BUMP!!

Bump!

I'm playing my warwick pretty much exclusively now, with my P bass filling the other gigs, and i've gotten so used to the tight string spacing on my warwick that this bass isnt getting any playing time, so i'm putting her up for sale. The pickups, preamp and ramp are all aftermarket and cost around £300 to install (all work done by Jon Shuker). Full specs for the bass are as follows...

Swamp Ash body - Wenge Accent - Swamp Ash Top (bookmatched)
5 piece Maple/ebony neck
Rosewood Fingerboard
34" Scale Length
24 frets
Gold Hardware
19mm String Spacing
Individual ABM Bridge Units
EMG DC45 active pickups
EMG BQC 3 band parametric preamp
Adjustable Ramp

Comes with hard case

The bass cost me £600 new, plus £300 worth of upgrades. They don't make this model anymore as i recall. There is some cosmetic damage so Im looking for £500 for the bass. Setup with medium low action and Warwick Black Label Strings.

Will ship in Gator hard case at buyers expense, more photos available on request

Bank Holiday BUMP!!

My dad got me tickets as a surprise for me coming back from my cruise contract in the Caribbean. Can't wait, saw them on the snakes tour and they were brilliant!

Midweek bump! Anyone potentially interested?

OK, for sale is my Trace 1048H 4x10 Cab

Its a great sounding piece of gear and has been completely reliable for the last 3 years but since my band has decided to call it a day, the gigs i'm doing now don't require a cab as big or loud as this. Full specs from TE website below. Cab itself has been gigged regularly but is in very good condition, the cover however has seen some battle damage and is frayed at corners. Weight according to TE website is 36 kilograms. Photos available on request

I'm happy to drive halfway to deliver this. I'm asking a firm £350[list]
[*]800 Watts RMS, 8 Ohms.
[*]Four 10" (254mm) specially designed Celestion® speakers.
[*]High frequency horn with variable attenuation.
[*]Two Neutrik® Speakon® and two 1/4" (6.35mm) jack connectors.
[*]Cabinet tuned, with central unobstructed slots, to 40Hz.
[*]Lightweight poplar plywood construction.
[*]Original classy black 'pimple' covered.
[*]Metal handles and protective corners.

is this cab still available?

you might be better served picking a bass, sticking with it and practising a little more as opposed to spending your time chopping and changing your gear....what will a kingbass enable you to achieve that your current basses wont?

my main bass. 97 streamer LX, wenge neck and board, solid flame maple body, duncan pickups, east U-retro pre. the only thing i would change is making it 33" scale rather than 34"

for me its between Scott lafaro, ray brown and the legend that is john patitucci

Hey Bilbo, sure not a problem. PM me you email and i'll do my best to email it to you on friday once the ship im on is back in Miami (internet on the ship while at sea is sporadic at best and hardly ever works when i try to connect on my laptop). If i have to stay on the ship then, i'll get it to you ASAP. If anyone else has the same problem of PDF size PM me your email address and i'll email you the PDF ASAP

Happy Christmas from the sunny caribbean!!!

Here is my transcription of John Patitucci's "Heart of the Bass", title track of said same CD. Its one of the most beautiful solo bass pieces ive ever heard, and i've finally finished my transcription of it.

The improvised solo towards the end of the piece isnt transcribed all exactly in time as per the recording. the phrases are all transcribed as reference points for when the looped figure is playing. Everything else is more or less correct (I think!!)

Check out the recording of the piece on spotify, its one of the most gorgeous pieces in the bass repertoire.
