  1. Just a wee note to say that Nathan's a great guy to deal with (and I'm glad to see you're enjoying the RBV - the 'ray's a blinder too mate!). Having tinkled a Streamer Pro-M 5 in the past (and still owning a wenge necked Warwick) this'd be a real find for somebody. Love the black hardware!
  2. I'll have some up tomorrow Kev.
  3. DHA VT-1 Compressor Pedal inc. PSU. See review here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=6002"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=6002[/url] New price is £149 without PSU. It's seen a bit of action so some of the 'interesting' paintwork has flaked, but mostly on the bottom. I'd take £85 inc. postage inside UK. Prefer paypal. Cheers Ian Update for pics: [attachment=11406:29072008037.jpg][attachment=11407:29072008039.jpg][attachment=11408:29072008040.jp g]
  4. Going new, if it were me in your situation, I'd be heading straight for 2 Aguilar 1x12 cabs (either of the 2 kinds that they do - probably go for the DB112 cabs in tweed and get a matching 2unit case for the amp) and a chrome rack mount Evo III Ashdown ABM 500. Maybe a bit more than your budget, but not by too much. Otherwise there's an Ampeg BSP preamp, saoundtech 802 poweramp and tech soundsystems 4x10 in the for sale section. That'd be mighty rig!
  5. Not a bad find that... I bought an '83 Wal Custom for 500-nicker a few years ago. That was a pretty good find too...

    If you're interested in building your own clone try BYOC.com There's a UK distributor listed on the site.
  7. Older ABM combos and cabs had the nylon grill.
  8. You're probably right Kev!
  9. [quote name='Matty' post='248179' date='Jul 25 2008, 11:41 PM']straight swap for a XT pro?[/quote] Sorry mate I'd need some cash my way...
  10. Just received Nathans (NJE) Stingray in a trade for my Roscoe Beck 5 string. The whole transaction went like a dream. Excellent communication and ultra fast shipping (4pm one day in England, 10am next day in Northern Ireland - APC surely ROCK!). Deal with confidence. A+
  11. Bump... Come on guys - somebody has a Bass Pod XT they don't want any more!
  12. [quote name='BassManKev' post='246657' date='Jul 24 2008, 09:57 AM']thats a sweet looking bass [/quote] Yeah they're really good for the money (but then I'm going to say that anyway! )
  13. Hi guys, I had this for sale locally (to avoid the dreaded shipping), but no-one seems to be buying ANYTHING so I'll throw it open here. Schecter Model-T bass (black). The Model-T was originally designated the Robert DeLeo signature model until the Stone Temple Pilots' demise. Black pickguard, maple neck, rosewood f'board, 22 frets, Seymour Duncan Vintage PJ pickups (REAL Seymours, not 'Duncan Design'!). A great precision style bass for those on a budget. Very nearly on a level (soundwise) with a Lakland BG that passed through my hands briefly recently! Condition probably 8.5/10. No major dings or scratches. [url="http://namm.harmony-central.com/WNAMM04/Content/Schecter/PR/Model-T-2004.html"]http://namm.harmony-central.com/WNAMM04/Co...del-T-2004.html[/url] Trades considered for a Bass PodXT of some description with cash my way otherwise would prefer a straight sale, but run whatever you've got past me - worst I can say is no! Cash price around £250ish plus postage (I'm in Northern Ireland so probably around £35-£40 for shipping) I'll get actual pics up tonight if anyone's interested. Cheers Ian
  14. Stop bumping this you fiend! It's too HOT! Seriously though anyone after a jazz bass that's a little different this is the machine for you. Crazy flexible. My RBV (currently in the post to Nathan) was the best sounding and most flexible passive bass I've played by a country mile. Only parted with it as I'd no need for the 5th string and it was kind of getting in the way. Mr Beck knew what he was doing with his design for these basses for sure. I'll have a 4 string one of these days!
  15. [attachment=11175:feat_4770_full_lg.jpg] I'll just throw the cat among the pigeons with this:
  16. [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='239290' date='Jul 14 2008, 04:49 PM']Update: Apparently the kiwi inlay is in and looks good, so the top will be going on shortly. Jon says the bass is likely to be finished in the next 4 weeks! [/quote] 4 weeks He told me that his build time was 12 - 20 weeks when I put down my deposit... on the 6th November... that makes it 37 weeks by my count! To say I can't wait to get my hands on it is an understatement! Jon's a great guy to deal with, but his timing estimates leave a bit to be desired!
  17. [quote name='NJE' post='246021' date='Jul 23 2008, 12:44 PM']Its on its way to a loving home as I am sure my Stingray will be it will be sad to see her go but i know its for the greater good. I am actually getting a bit upset.......god I bet even wife swopping isn't this emotional. Thanks[/quote] I'll take good care of it Nathan. Always wanted a Stingray 4. Loved the sound of the Stingray 5 I had, but couldn't get along with the string spacing...
  18. If I recall correctly most T-basses have that pickup combination, but the extra pickup is a dummy coil for hum cancelling (usually hidden by the pickguard)... as usual I could be wrong... it happened once... I think it was a Tuesday... Edit: Damn - just beaten to it!
  19. [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='244630' date='Jul 21 2008, 05:52 PM']Good luck with the Roscoe Beck V! I've got one and I love it but they seem to have divided opinion on here recently... Nice Warwick by the way..[/quote] Yeah... I'd be keeping mine if I had use for the B string and didn't have a Shuker coming. A 'ray will come in much more useful to be honest (altough a bongo 4HH or Beck VI are on my hit list!)...
  20. Still here or sold?
  21. Oh balls... I've already agreed a trade for my Roscoe Beck 5 string or I'd have to put it back up for sale to get my mits on this... Oh well. Must have been fate.
  22. Another wee bump
