  1. I've never tried it with a bass, I will try it out if it doesn't sell over the next couple of days.
  2. Selling this because I haven't used it in 3 years, it's a lovely amp, but I just don't play guitar at all any more. Based in Edinburgh, price includes UK shipping but will knock off a few pounds if it's picked up.
  3. I finally got my hands on a Genzler Magellan, so it's time to let this go. It's absolutely amazing, but I haven't used it more than a few times over the last few years. Various class D amps have just been easier to manage for my function gig. It's in a functional but old SKB 2U rack case, and I will pack it well if it has to be shipped. I'm based in Edinburgh but happy to post within the UK. I also have a Proline 410 that I'm planning on keeping, but could potentially sell the whole rig if it was collected. I would sell them together for £600 I'm not looking for trades, but could be convinced by a John East MMSR 2 band preamp, decent cabs, nice compressors or decent effects pedals, though I already have a lot of these.
  4. It's not loud enough, and the Genz Benz sounds a bit better for wedding band stuff, the HD350 is probably only running 200W or less with the 8ohm cab. I'm really happy with the GB/BF combo for that gig. I just find myself using it more often for my original band too, and the EBS would sound better for that.
  5. I've booked in to my mates recording studio for a day soon, just to set up all my gear and try it at a good level. I'll definitely keep the Genz and the BB2 they work really well for my wedding band. I would like the Reidmar, but I won't get one with the proceeds from the HD350 and I'm still really reluctant to sell the 410. I'll try them all in the studio for a whole day and see how I feel after that. Cheers for the advice so far.
  6. I'm really not fishing here, my subscription is paid and I'll put up a sales post IF I decide to sell. I'm also not showing off, well maybe a little. So I have a lovely EBS rig, a HD350 and a Proline 410, weighs a tonne, but it sounds great and moves a lot of air. I also have another, smaller, rig with a Genz Benz Streamliner 900 and a Barefaced Big Baby 2, it also sounds great, but it's really light and actually quite a bit louder. Thing is, I never really get around to using my EBS gear any more, it just sits there looking great, and reminding me how lovely that glassy EBS top end sounds. I am reluctant to get rid of it, because it sounds so good, but I feel bad about keeping it. My choices are sod it and keep it, I might get a chance to use it a some stage. Just sell the head, because a 4ohm 410 will probably be useful at some point. Or just sell the cab, because I will probably want to have the EBS tone in something I do again in the future. If I sell it I might buy a Reidmar, or some other useful gear. If I keep it I can stay safe in the knowledge that I have one of the best sounding rigs ever tucked away for whenever I need it. Any opinions on how I should handle my first World problems?
  7. Price drop £140 including UK postage.
  8. This is a well used, but well looked after piece of gear. Comes with box, manual and even the EBS sticker from inside the box. There is Velcro on the bottom and I don't have the rubber feet, but they should be easy to replace if required. I'm selling this because it's really just being carried around as a backup to my amp these days, and a normal DI box will do fine if I ever need it. I would consider a swap/part ex for a Trace Elliot Elf or possibly some good effects pedals. I'm in the market for a Genzler Magellan 800, so would definitely put this towards one if anyone is selling. I'm based in Edinburgh, but happy to post.
  9. That's what I was thinking, I'm a bit of a Star Wars geek, so maybe an imperial insignia.
  10. I have a Chris McIntyre Jazz bass, made in Edinburgh, it is incredibly good. I wanted a custom string spacing and nut width, and a lot of the other custom builders charge a lot of money for things like that. I'm not really interested in fancy woods and finishes (though Chris can do that too), and it is (in my opinion) the nicest Jazz I've played.
  11. In my quest to get rid of gear, I've found myself with some more gear. My favourite is this Musicman Stingray Classic 5, it is a really great bass, and the treble control is exactly what I wanted it to be. The only problem is the black/rosewood combination is a bit boring, so I'm thinking a new scratch plate could make it look a little better. Any ideas on colour? I'm thinking tort, or maybe clear but with a sticker or logo underneath?
  12. Probably too busy getting sued by Spector.
  13. It's a bolt on neck, with an epiphone logo on the neck plate. Probably a perfectly good bass, but it's not a Gibson.
  14. It looks stunning, what an amazing amount of work.
  15. I've only tried it in a shop, but it is amazing. So expressive, works great for string sounds.
  16. No interesting shots yet, but here it is.
  17. Just picked up an Elwood 5A-24 in a trade, it's very nice, I wasn't expecting a tilt-back headstock on a Jazz style bass, it works well and looks fine from the front, but it's a little odd when playing. Are they all tilt-back heads, or is it an option when ordering. Not too sure I'll keep this, but it will work a bit better for my Industrial band than my other shell pink jazz bass.
  18. 17MM at the bridge, I have small hands so I've always preferred MM 5 strings.
  19. I haven't had it very long, but really enjoying it. I have a "normal" Stingray 5HH, which I love, but this feels really special. It's very scooped sounding, I was considering a John East 3 band (which I have in my other stingray) to put in some mids, but the treble boost on this is lovely really sizzles. I'll leave it as is for now, but when I can only bring one bass the McIntyre Jazz is just a better all rounder. I've been trying to clear space recently, selling and trading stuff I don't use, but for some reason I keep ending up with more..... And I just got this maruszczyk bass in a trade now too.....
  20. Will now post, will consider offers and trades for amps and cabs. Also bump.
  21. Traded basses with Dennis last week, bass arrived safe and sound yesterday. Great to deal with, as you would expect from all the posts above.
  22. Playing a corporate gig in St Andrews, didn't need to bring two, but I just can't resist.
