be there no love for this? thou must be bumped to the toppeth.

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.

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.

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

Darn it, I had just decided to add this to my NV610. Should have moved immediately. Good luck whoever bought it, Bergs are the bees knees.

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.

This cab is a little small for my liking.... 6x12, surely not enough speaker surface

+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?

Is this Ziggy's old bass matey?

Gilian24, where are you based in NL? I live in the Hague and am interested (for a EURO price of course) in principle. Will PM you as well. rgds, Haz

I'd buy it if you ship to the Netherlands for 30 quid postage included.....??

And it actually appears to be a genuine pre EB even :-)

Totally underrated basses. Had one before and it absolutely killed comparable Fenders. My advice, keep it, fit some Nordstrands and passive wiring and sorted!

Still no input from the seller....... says it all. We should all be happy the combined knowledge on the forum sorts the BS from the real 99.9% of the time. Any seller should welcome feedback on what he/she is selling from their peers.
