    It is a serious bit of kit, but sitting unused..

    Not cabs or amps ( i dont have room for this.. ) but will consider pretty much anything bass related as a part or whole trade. Ask! as the only options are yes or no!

    The original pickups are Bart Mk1's that come on most if not all SR's. I'll need to refit them to get some sound samples. Its a three band like the ibanez original but way less peaky and its not prone to signal distortion. I have had a number of Ibanez over the years (sR505, BTB's, EDA905 and the premium series) and the pre amp is always a bit of an achilless heal imho and even if they work i tend to swap them out except for the premium but thats was a £1200 bass so ...

    Not cabs basically (storage being the issue). I have a basses but never quite enough...

    Its a Markbass cab, what is not to like? Pretty much brand new, never been gigged, comes with a cover in near perfect as new condition 15" main driver with horn. I bought this for a stage show project that didnt materialize (well at least not yet) for its visual presense as much as its excellent dynamics, and it's lightweight too. Specifications: Power handling 400W SPEAKER CONFIG 1X15" Impedance 8OHM Tweeter 1" DRIVER W/HORN TUNED PORT (REAR) Its pretty sizeable to ship but shouldnt be too bad as it light. Pickup/meetup is possibe. Trials welcome.

    I bought this bass a good while back with a dead pre amp and a little unloved. I have gone over it with a fine tooth comb, fitted a generic pre amp which is very good and has a better all round definition than the Ibanez stock one. It works well with either the original BArt Mk1 or as seen here some bloomin' expensive Aguilars (I paid £280 for them as a pair) Its in played but nice condition finished in a metallic Dark grey/black. No huge dints or scratches. Hardware is the smoke chrome type, but the bridge is polished up a bit brighter than that. Great action Loads of fret life left, nicely set up with 1 month old strings. So TWO prices (ibanez copy of..) Bart Mk1's refitted: £200 With Aguilars £ 325 which is still cheaper than a new one and has a big upgrade pickups wise.. I can ship at buyers expense or meet up within reach of the M25 for the price of a coffee.

    Here i have for sale a well gigged but utterly reliable powerhouse of a cab. These come with wheels and trolley like handle for easy moving and loading. This has done over 100 gigs so has dinted especially in the bottom edges (i have gaffered these to protect them but full disclosure it seen some life). I'll redo the taping for sale i have decent black gaffa tape to tidy it up. Everything sounds great and is ready to go. I had two of these and broke the wheel on one, so have spares that will come with the sale, even though the ones on this one are the originals. Tech spec.. Number of speakers 8 Speaker diameter 5 inches RMS capacity in watts 750 - 999 W Built-in tweeter not needed Speaker output impedance 8 Ohms Stereo function no Bass reflex port yes Wheels yes Colour black Weight about 26 Kg Neutrik style connectors Has feet on two sides to can be set up tall like the pics or low if part of a stack for example. This is a pro level cab, can handle the bigger amps, not the lightest by a good size, will go into a small hatchback no problem. (it even fits into the boot of a Bmw Z4!) The handle and wheels whilst shopping trolly-esque is great for loading and unloading. Bearing mind its roadworn nature i have priced it to sell or trade at £275. Cheapest i can find online is £695 so a bargain to be had. I can ship at buyers cost but would prefer pickup or meetup.

    Are the MFD humbuckers 4 wire (i.e can they be coil tapped?)

    I have been extremely lucky to have commissioned a Zemaitis bass, back in 1989 when Tony was still producing guitars from his quirky garage workshop. My 'Z' is also a fretless which makes it rarer than a rare thing. One (fretted) made the cover of Geddy Lee's 'Big Book of Bass' There are two phases of Zemaitis, the original made by the man himself, and the Greco manufactured current line. Never seen either for sale on here. Wouldnt mind a Greco era one but ony if is it wasnt LP style. Dont like LP syle basses.

    Fit and finish on these is very good. I have this in white and its a good bit of kit..can recommend.

    Seen this

    I have owned 424x (still do its my third) 425x and 1025x's. On my current 424x changed out the bridge on the 424x for a Babicz and wouldnt consider buying a 1024x if one came up to replace it. Honestly the tonal difference isnt anything to write home about (between the 42Xx and the 102Xx series) and the difference iapeears to be hardware. The 424x hardware is good, a simple bridge upgrade makes it a 102Xx equivilent for less money. I'd love to have a 425x or 1025x 5 stringer but i'd happily do the same upgrade on a 425x with a babicz and be done and happy. As for the replacement design that saw the end of the 'x' line I dunno they look dont look as complete.

    This is a great bass. The colour is called 'rootbeer'. The MFD series of pickups is a Fender designed masterpiece. These tribute series basses are great value for money. G & L need more love than they get. Buy with confidence that you will get a great instrument

    Ooh just thought of another i'd buy (if it all worked) a Peavey B Quad 4

    As a way too ebay influenced (as in i really shouldnt have bought this many but ebay helped..a lot ) buyer/seller/collector/playerI have owned a LOT of basses (possibly over 200). And i have a few sellers regrets in my 45 years of bassist shenanigans. So occasionally i land up re-purchasing basses previously sold.. But there are a few that I just dont see ever come up for sale...rarity or just held onto by happy owners..who knows? Yamaha series 1 TRB 'slapcut'. Awesome basses, Japanese build quality. I had the rare Jazz pickup layout version. Owned it for 14 years and rather dumbly (is that a word?) sold it. Never seen that model since. Dammit. Any of the x series of the budget Yamaha BB's. I have owned 4 and 5 string versions, managed to snag a 424x but you hardly see them for sale, they are brilliant. Washburn Force 42. Headless 80s bass. Never seen one for sale since the 80s As a collector i'd likely buy any of the above without even planning to gig them (although i do take the 424x out for the odd gig or two see below..) Any basses you hanker after yet never see on the for sale board?

    Bought an Elrick bass, great transaction, swift turnround and hassle free. Brilliant.
  21. BaggyMan
    Ah thought so, but the listing says.. Needs an update.
  22. BaggyMan
    Has the hipshot been removed?
  23. BaggyMan
    Not really playing 4 stringers these days but I'd be tempted to buy this backif i was. Excellent bass.
  24. BaggyMan
