First up, set of 5 Gotoh tuners taken from my 1996 MIA Deluxe Jazz. Nice and shiny, good working order and a worthy upgrade to the stock tuners on any MIM Jazz V. £20 shipped or swap for a Bass Fat Finger Second, a pair of Jazz pickups also taken from said 1996 MIA Deluxe Jazz V. These pickups pack a serious punch - the size of the pole pieces gives you some idea. I read an article with Bryan Beller where he was effusive in his praise of the sound of his MIA Deluxe Jazz which he says was mainly down to these pickups. If you have a standard Jazz V, these will give it a serious boost. £20 shipped or swap for a Bass Fat Finger Anyone interested can have both items for £35 shipped.

This was discussed on Radio 4's you and yours this afternoon. Ebay have changed their billing to reduce listing fees and increase the amount of final value fees. They've also reduced final value fees for buy it now items. Surprise, surprise, these changes benefit large volume purveyors of Far Eastern electronic tat but seriously harm smaller volume sellers. I guess the ebay miracle had to end at some point.

As a bass player, chord inversions and contrary motion are two of your greatest friends.

[quote name='dood' post='267286' date='Aug 21 2008, 07:05 PM']I wonder how [i]they[/i] will pronounce 'Epifani' lol lol!!![/quote] Better than they'd produce GAllien Krueger or Schroeder I'll wager -
I think Tony Grey?

You need an escrow service [url="https://www.escrow.com/index.asp"]https://www.escrow.com/index.asp[/url] or [url="http://www.pppay.com/"]http://www.pppay.com/[/url] might be better for UK transactions.

I stumbled across [url="http://www.flightcasepro.co.uk/"]this[/url] the other day. Gig Skinz gear for knock down prices. Nicer looking and better made than the usual Stagg stuff and you can get it for the same price.

Question about Trace Elliot V-Type all tube head
bassbloke replied to Catalin's topic in Amps and Cabs
[quote name='Catalin' post='254478' date='Aug 4 2008, 03:01 PM']Guys can you tell me in what year was made this amp ? Here is the serial number: T0105.0144 Model: VTYPE-H0 Can you tell me how the EQ works? What are the bass mid and treble freq. ?[/quote] The original V-Type preamp has a passive EQ. With the tone knobs set to 12 o'clock and deep, bright and mid shift all off, the EQ curve has a slight mid cut. Boosting or cutting the different bands affects the others. -
It hasn't been doctored. It was taken on a compact digital camera at one of the indoor stages. I guess you could call it a fluke.

My friend snapped this shot of the bass player from 'The Rotted' being given a proper send off during his last ever gig with the band at Wacken Open Air. I think it's one of the best live shots I've ever seen. [attachment=12129:n8100806...128_8325.jpg]

I bought a pair of Schroeder cabs from Greg on behalf of a friend. Great seller, really nice,helpful guy and it was a pleasure to chat to and do business with him. The cabs are in fantastic condition and he even dropped them off! I've just given the two cabs a quick run through and they're great. I've spoken to my mate and he can;t wait to come and pick them up. Thank you.

Good seller. My mate willbe very happy with his new Little Mark II.

[quote name='steve-soar' post='259175' date='Aug 10 2008, 11:15 AM']Did you notice that it has a Fender USA neck plate but what looks like the remains of a Jap serial number on the heel. Any ideas?[/quote] 90s Fenders are an odd one. I have a HM series bass which has 'Made in USA' on the headstock, but everyoneI've spokento says it's a Japanese instrument. If the Fender Electro-Acoustic is too much dosh,check out a Godin G4.

A close friend of mine is looking to sell his Trace Elliot V-Type 4 x 8" combo and a 1153 15" cabinet. The V-Type was, IMHO, Trace Elliot's finest hour. The preamp features a gain, passive 3 band EQ with mid shift, activated by pulling on mid control and deep and bright switches and master. Finally, there is a DI out with pre/post switch and ground lift. The retro looked is completed with old fashioned knobs and a nice green light. The combo is I believe rated at 290W into 4 Ohms and around 200W into 8Ohms. The extension cab is a Trace Elliot 1153 - so not the incredibly rare V-Type cabinets, but a good piece of kit. It's all in great working order. I replaced the 2 stock tubes with a pair of Sovtek/EHX12AX7s. My friend loves this rig, but he's been working overseas for a few years and needs a small rig he can easily transport. [b]£500[/b] I'm currently looking after this for him, so any interested parties are welcome to come round and give it a bash.
