I was lucky enough to meet him when the singer I was playing with was on the same bill as The Blockheads at Rewind in Henley a couple of years ago. I spotted him backstage, and despite trying to be restrained and cool, I was so excited that I actually blurted out: "Great to meet you, Norman - the bass line to 'My Old Man' changed my life!" Embarrassingly gushing perhaps, but it did - the first time I heard it, it made me realise the bass could do all sorts of wonderful melodic things, not just root and fifth. :-) He was very kind, and indulged me by chatting for a while until I calmed down...

I know I'm going to regret this... this is a great rig, but I'm reducing my 'gear mountain' as my other half politely puts it, so these have to go! Very good used condition, amp very clean, always been in its case, just PAT tested and in full working order. A few bobbles in the carpet covering of the 410, but no rips or tears. Complete with mains and speakon cable. Collection only, just off the A3 by junction 10 of the M25. Priced to sell - £600 for the head, £350 for the 410, or £900 for both, no trades please. PM or call 07976 301994 *** NOW SOLD ELSEWHERE***

Aww, come on now, he's into it, and he's enjoying himself. This is a direct result of whoever it was that made us white boys think we had da fonk. I blame that Mark King meself. Sniff. (Runs for cover)

Seriously, I would think long and hard before you sell this. I was a Stingray user for years, and they're a wonderful, bombproof workhorse, but they're a bit of a one-trick pony. Up until recently, I had two DJ5's, one black sparkle Korean, one pearl white Indonesian, both fitted with John East preamps (they're great basses without them, but they really bring the DJ to life - I can't recommend fitting one highly enough) and I sold the white one only because it didn't have quite as fat a sound, plus I had a new rig on the way I had to pay for. I own, or over the many years I've been a bass player have owned, Laklands, Musicmans, Wals, Celinders, Seis and Sadowskys to name only a few, but the DJ5 is now my main bass. They're no longer made, and are getting harder to get hold of. They're easily on a par with basses three times their price. Have I persuaded you to keep it yet?? :-) Dave -
Having a bit of a clear out - up for sale is the lined pau ferro fretless neck from my '94 Stingray 5, complete with tuners, which I replaced with an unlined neck a few years ago, and packed the original away in bubble wrap and put in a sturdy box in the loft. When we moved house recently I re-discovered it, and was horrified to see the box had been invaded by a mouse at some stage and he'd chewed the underside of the heel, shown in the pictures. Luckily it's not visible when the neck's fitted, and has no effect on it's playability. Also shown in the pics is a small scratch on the back of the neck up by the heel, and a tiny bit of string marking on the fingerboard. I bought the bass the neck came from in the late 90's from Paul Turner, of Jamiroquai etc. He told me it was used on a Take That album, but that doesn't lower the price any, I'm afraid... ... the unwanted mouse carpentry could be said to be a factor in the price however, so I'm only looking for £295 posted within the UK. NOW SOLD.

[quote name='throwoff' post='1374105' date='Sep 15 2011, 10:02 AM']Then I would not be able to afford a cab! It is a vicious circle! I have the art of 2 hard cases, guitarists massive pedal board, my little board, Fender Hot rod deluxe, my bass head and the drummers cymbals and snare all in a 3 door punto with 3 people in it and nothing on our laps. This cab as fantastic as it is and as well priced as it is ruins my tetris like system. I need a van...[/quote] I just sold my VW Transporter... I could have done you a deal on the two! Bummer!

[quote name='throwoff' post='1373851' date='Sep 14 2011, 10:18 PM']I actually know it would fit, I had a Markbass CL108 which is just a shade taller than this and with the back seats down it just fitted in the back of my punto with my bass alongside and head and pedalboard on passenger seat. I now however am transporting the guitarist and drummer to practices so I need seats [/quote] Buy a trailer and put them in that!

[quote name='throwoff' post='1372876' date='Sep 14 2011, 09:51 AM']EDIT - just realised its a 6ohm cab. Ignore me! EDIT 2! - Back in! right as I said, if you can wait till 31.10 I will be at your front door with 450 quid in crisp notes. EDIT 3. Nope ignore me, just remembered how small my car is I shall keep looking for a 410. GL with sale.[/quote] 1. Yes. OK then. 2. Thank you for your kind offer, but the missus might have thrown it out with the recycling by then. 3. Now, that's just daft... the FIRST thing you do when you think about getting a big cab is get the tape measure out, for goodness sake!
