    Here it is. A thing of great beauty, the Rolls Royce of analogue bass heads! All the power and headroom you'll ever need, with EBS's legendary clarity and tone. Bought new from Bass Direct last year, excellent condition, very few running hours. Currently fitted in a used but perfectly serviceable SKB 3U case. All the specs are here: https://ebssweden.com/content2/amps/ebs-802-high-dynamics-linear-bass-amp/ Comes complete with rubber feet, mains lead, instruction booklet, test certificate and sticker. Collection preferred from GU23 (Jcn 10 of the M25), but can be shipped at the buyer's cost and risk. Unfortunately my wife binned the original shipping carton, but it will be securely packaged up if posted. Sorry, no trades please. And don't forget... it goes up to 11 ! NOW SOLD.

    Welcome to the forum, Mattz. That's a beautiful bass you've got there!

    I had a 5-string Jerry Scheff a few years back. Very pretty and lovely to play, but the pickups were thin sounding to my ears, even with the assistance of the preamp, so I moved it on. Like you experienced, it took a while to sell.

    Gary bought a couple of straps from me. Friendly communication, immediate payment. Thanks!

    That's one way to attract traffic I suppose, but not necessarily a buyer! 😆

    Doubt it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/387707039318

    Sorry if I'm teaching Granny how to suck eggs regarding the tug bar. I didn't even notice the thumb rest by the bridge!
  12. lowregisterhead
    I've had both, and the first comment is correct IMHO - the Mesa is good, but grittier and lacks the glassy sparkle of the EBS. I've had HD350s and TD650s over the years, and moved them on as I tried out some Class D lightweight thing that didn't really do the job anything like as well. I currently use a EBS Reidmar 502, which is pretty close to the big boys tonally, and light as a feather, and recently splurged on an EBS 802, which is glorious, but only gets an outing when I know I don't have to carry it too far! Stick with the HD350. Or get an 802!! 😁

    The holes under the strings were for what was termed a 'tug bar' back in the day - the forerunner of a thumb rest, where the fingers would be curled around it, and the strings plucked with the thumb. According to the link below, the tug bar was added by Fender to accommodate Monk Montgomery, one of the first professional users of the Fender Bass. He played with his thumb, just as his brother Wes did. He later switched to using a felt pick. https://www.bestbassgear.com/ebass/gear/hardware/what-is-a-tug-bar-on-an-electric-bass.html

    I’m having a big clear-out, so up for grabs is one of Martin Peterson’s beautiful hand-made creations, a Sei Jazz 5-string. I picked it up on here earlier this year, and as lovely as it is, I just find myself gravitating back to my extra-long scale Laklands, so I’ve decided to move it on. NOW SOLD
  19. lowregisterhead
    Love the finish! GLWTS.

    She's had quite a career. Maybe ask her if she still has any unfulfilled ambitions?

    A replica, apparently. The photos are... creative! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156418826489

    Sorry! Added to specs above.

    For sale is a Music Man Stingray 5 30th Anniversary model, this particular example made in January 2018. I got it from a shop in the States earlier this year, and it's a truly fabulous bass, but I find myself gravitating back towards my old Laklands again, so rather than leaving it languishing in the house, I thought it would be better that I move it on so someone else can enjoy it. The roasted maple neck on this one is especially dark and chocolatey, and looks fabulous with the cream binding, with beautiful striping on the back of the neck. It's had very little use, and apart from some faint swirling on the scratchplate below the strings, it's completely unmarked. The neck is sleek and fast, the action low and very easy to play. It's no heavyweight at a very svelte 4.3kg. Comes complete with an MM hardcase, also in excellent condition. For the story behind this model, have a look here: https://www.music-man.com/instruments/basses/30th-anniversary-stingray-5 Collection preferred (I'm 10 minutes from junction 10 of the M25) but I will ship, at the buyer's cost and risk. Sorry, but no trade offers please. NOW SOLD.

    I'm tentatively offering for sale my Canadian-made Lee Sklar Signature in Gun Metal finish.
