  1. FOR SALE:

     

    Immaculate Handmade Atelier Z DAL-5 Jazz Bass. 

     

    I've had many Boutique Jazz Basses from the likes of Mike Lull, Bacchus, Marcus Miller V, Sei and Atelier Z are right in the mix. Fell in love with their sound ever since seeing Jerry Barnes live with Chic. There's Jazz Basses and then theirs a Super Jazz, and this Atelier Z definitely earns that badge. I'll be sad to see this go but I can't justify keeping this bass in a case. It deserves to be played. 

     

    This bass dates back to approx. 2002, which I have had confirmed by Johnny at Atelier Z, and handmade by Mas Hino in Japan, who went on to work with Roger Sadowsky making their basses in New York. 

     

    The body has recently been re-finished by David Wilson in Hexam, who has done an unreal job. It looks, feels and play brand new. 

     

    SPEC:

    • Maple Neck and Fingerboard
    • Chambered Alder body with Ash top
    • Neck: 34", Maple,  21 Frets
    • Tuners: Gotoh GB-30
    • Bridge: Gotoh 205B-5/18P
    • Pickups: Atelier Z JBZ-5
    • Preamp: Nordstrand 2B-4B (2 Band Preamps - Nordstrand Audio)   (Original Atelier Z EQ/M included in the sale)

    • Nut Width: 47mm
    • String Spacing at the Bridge: 18mm

    I have everything needed to package this bass up securely for postage via courier, or feel free to come and try/collect. 

     

    Not looking for any trades on guitars, but may consider some backline options. Drop me a PM if you want to discuss. 

     

    Any questions just give me a shout.

  2. Hi,

    Just after a bit a of advice if anyone has had any experience of this. 

    My GK MB800 Fusion head has been great for the past 24 months, however and a gig last week if started making a terrible white noise hiss through my cabinet. At first I thought it might be a power issue at the venue but when tested it at home the outcome was the same. 

    The noise reduced slightly when the Trebble was rolled off the EQ. 

    I suspect it may be a problem with one of the valves but I’ve never had amp issues so   hoping for some help. 

    Dows anyone know of anywhere in the NW that could carry out repairs on this head. 

    Cheers

    Jake
