  1. I do love my Bergie, I went from 2x 112 VanderKley (did not like them at all) to 2x 112 GK Neo (loved them), to GK 112 Neo + 212 Neo, to Berg 6x10.

    Wil get 112's or 212's again at some point I'm sure.

    Never had the Aguilar GS, but did use them several times and loved them.....500 £ is not a lot for these cabs, bargain! BUMPAROO!

  2. @Rowley Birkin QC: in the past I have - rightly - been requested to keep comments about price to myself or within the confines of a PM. I think it is neither here nor there what you or anybody else paid. If the price is too high on this combo, nobody will buy so you can leave it up to supply-demand.

  3. Funny, I was just checking up on this guy. Received an email from him re an LMK Bag and alarm bells started ringing. Deleted the message. If you google his email address you will see he has been scamming on German, Danish, Polish and UK forums and appears to be one of our Nigerian buddies. Shame guys like this give entire countries a bad name, I have been to Nigeria many times for business and have met some really nice, hardworking, intelligent people there. I am digressing, message DELETED.

  5. My gigs are mostly in bars and clubs nowadays and I can get away with a smaller set (GB STM900 and MB LM800), so am just under-using this lovely bit of kit.

    Do you need or want arena level classic bass tone? I have just the thing........

    Trace Elliot V Type Pre (tube) - GBP250 + shipping
    Fender MB1200 (1200w @ 2Ohm, 800w @ 4Ohm) - GBP375 + shipping
    Boschma 4U Flight Case - not sold separately

    Price for the whole whack £625 + shipping/delivery (pretty cheap for a 1200 watt monster rig).

    Sweet and creamy tube tone from the classic and coveted passive tone stack paired to an awesome Fender power amp that just loves to soak up 2 Ohm loads (= 2 Ampeg 8x10s or such). I think the specs are pretty well known on the forum so will not bore you with too many details.

    Will not split the amps that readily, they were made for each other!

    What do I want if we trade? A quality 212 cab (4 (preferred) or 8 ohm), a 5 string 35" (passive) JB, a 4 string passive J with de-tuner, a lightweight combo (300w+), another LM800 (or even the Tube version), a TC Electronic RH750, a solid state (light weight) amp - Thunderfunk, Glock Blue etc.

    I live in NL, but am back in UK often enough and can deliver/pickup in the SE (Herts) at shared cost.

  6. +1, works a treat and are cheap as chips 2nd hand

    For the sounds that you're after, it would be worth looking at the Roland VB system (the old one). Usually @ £300 or so. You can even play your Juno from it.

    If you're looking for the more DnB, Dubstep, Electronica type sounds, then you're looking at Octave>Fuzz>Filter & some other pedals to tailor your sound more (can end up costing a small fortune).

  7. But above all he is a solid bass player that recognizes the opportunity FX pedals give to enhance the sonic spectrum of the instrument and is able to utilize them to their potential. Too many players have pedal boards the size of the QE2 that make their sound even worse than it was to start with.

    FX are great, I use them a lot, but in the right setting please.

    Companies will throw stuff at anyone they feel can help them strengthen their market presence and identity, all about the money and nothing else.

    If Shep was called Chris Wolstenholme I am sure he would get all his sh*t for free and more. Hey, if bloody Tommie Two Tits of the punk rock band "We cannot play to save our lives and only use one string between us "(no offence Shep) was selling enough records/shows I am sure Fender would bring out a 1 stringed Poo coloured signature P that would sit just right.

    Am I ranting?

  8. Nice! Had the chance to play a T5 the other day....... none of the neck dive BS that the Gibson's have and the pickups are top class = awesome bass!

    Good luck and thank you for not selling a 5string, it may have become too much GAS to handle :)

  9. Incredible, awesome US made highly cost effective bass like the Hamer Cruise sparks no interest at all. Even at 500 it was a bargain, now it is a ridiculous bargain..... come on people, you keep spending bucket loads of dosh on reasonably crappy instruments just because the label says Fender..... get over your unfounded angst and buy this cracking 5 string!

    Sure, it is not a Mike Lull, it is not a Nordstrand or Sadowsky, but a lot (AND YOU MAY QUOTE ME) better than most of the cheaper basses I see pass by on this forum.

    So, have a free bump on me, buyers get moving and for those who don't know Hamer....you can always PM for my 2 cents, I used one for years.

  10. +1, good pre! I would have bought it in an instant to match to my MB1200, but the VType I use currently is almost the same pre (as is the Alembic F-1X and BBE BmaxT et el), less the overdrive. Unless you fancy a partial trade Jacko, VType + 100 GBP to you, TBP to me?
