  1. [quote name='6v6' timestamp='1415830764' post='2604370'] ...Were all of the drivers in the cab actually working? [/quote] I was thinking this too. That and the placement of it and you.
  2. Thanks for looking but now sold. The details are: Boost - Footswitchable with up to +14dB clean boost, Filters - Footswitchable and the controls are: VLE (Vintage Loudspeaker Emulator) - Filters out high frequencies to give you a mellower, less modern sound, VPF (Variable Pre-shape Filter) - Boosts lows and highs with cut mids, Also features either true bypass or buffered bypass circuitry that's switchable on the bottom of the pedal, Complete with active XLR DI out (post effects) Link: [url="http://www.markbass.it/product_detail.php?id=117"]http://www.markbass....tail.php?id=117[/url]
  3. [quote name='sk8' timestamp='1415373175' post='2599740'] Great amps. My 450 is loud! [/quote] Thanks for the kind words sk8 and here's a bump to the top.

  5. Good choices and many thanks for organising it all Colin & Nik.
  6. Hi Charlie and thanks for joining. Cheers, Jon
  7. Hi All, Now sold but details left up for future reference. Purple Chili Phatt Bass 750W amp from 2012. It's a hybrid amp of the valve pre-amp and class D power amp variety. The pre-amp is (as supplied) a Denis Cornell hand wired creation that utilises 3 x 12AX7 valves. It has Active and Passive inputs, Gain (which starts to colour and distort the more you crank it up), Bass, Middle, Treble and Volume controls. It does 560W @8 ohms, 750W @4 ohms and 1,100W @2 ohms!!! On the 2 ohm subject Purple Chili said this: [i]"We did test the amp at all ohmages including 2 Ohms, and it seemed O.K. but I would not want to say it would be fine for long periods at this ohmage. If you run it at 2 ohms and it cuts out, it will switch back on after cooling, as there is a safety overheat switch inside. What I mean is, you can't blow it up as it will auto cut out before that happens as part of it's safety features."[/i] It's in very, very good condition and sounds great.
  8. As with any bass manufacturer the CS make good ones and, er, not so good ones. The usual advice of 'try before you buy' to make sure it is the one for you is just a prevalent. This gets murky when there's not too many about and the situation where you have to order the bass blind. All IME/IMO of course and YMMV
  9. [quote name='JamesTun' timestamp='1415114500' post='2596830'] Sold pending payment. [/quote] Thank goodness! A massive combination of sellers remorse and GAS hit me just seeing this amp so a lucky escape
  10. Very nice and top of my amp GAS list but alas no funds combined with nowhere to store it indoors has put stop to it! GLWTS
  11. [quote name='zero9' timestamp='1414781145' post='2593305'] If there is still space, I'd like to pop down please.... [/quote] No need to ask zero9, just turn up! I can make it now and will bring my Warmoth J/P that's for sale for people to have a look/try it out.
  12. I met Bill Nash in the Westside shop on Denmark Street once and he said adding a higher mass bridge to a Fender type bass with a BBOT is one of the best things you can do for it. I'm from the thinking of I like the fine tuning some offer (thinking Hipshot A type with Fender mounting) and IMO the better sustain they seem to offer.
  13. [quote name='icastle' timestamp='1414547949' post='2590613'] ...a full stack just ticking over has a degree of clarity than a combo struggling to keep up simply doesn't. It also brings the top cab up to a height where I can hear what I'm doing without having to rely on the monitor mix.... [/quote] This for me too but think of your back in this decision. Stacking 4x10's is no mean feat on your own.
  14. Guy came and bought my Strat from me. A top man and a very pleasant sale so deal with Him in confidence. All the best, Jon
  15. [quote name='JuliusGroove' timestamp='1414231385' post='2587262'] I'm not overly sure how compression works. Is it like cutting out certain frequencies to boost a more pure signal? I've been advised by a few people a compressor would be great for my tone but I have no idea about them. Any tips on what they're used for and which one you'd recommend? [/quote] In the olden days compressors were also known as levellers, which to me is a more descriptive and useful name. Basically they automatically turn down the louder parts of the sound so that they match the quieter parts of the sound and can do this quickly or slowly and by how much. Those parameters are all be set by the controls. In bass guitar terms this is the volume balance between the strings. My advice is the MXR Bass Compressor and a good read of BOD2's thread on this topic: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/337-compressors-and-limiters/"]http://basschat.co.u...s-and-limiters/[/url] All the best, Jon
  16. [quote name='Luulox' timestamp='1414084424' post='2585697'] What model Is this please mate? Cheers pete [/quote] Hi Luulox, It's an American Standard Stratocaster made in 2006. Cheers, Jon
  17. Well done Angel, it looks very Rock n Roll!
  18. [quote name='Shaggy_64' timestamp='1413925915' post='2583798'] Pre grooved saddle. If you want I can.send them through email [/quote] Hi Shaggy_64, Sorry, I'm after un-grooved saddles. GLWTS
  19. [quote name='Shaggy_64' timestamp='1413924585' post='2583772'] I don't.know how to put pictures up. It's a badass bass II [/quote] The easiest way is to upload the pic to something like Photobucket then add the link or use the 'image' option above. Is your Badass II the version with pre-grooved saddles or the plain/smooth ones please?
  20. [quote name='Shaggy_64' timestamp='1413922611' post='2583726'] I have a badass II bridge for swap or sale. Looking for an original fender bridge. Message me with what you have got. [/quote] Any pics please?
