I've owned this - now almost legendary - Bergantino B|Amp from new when I purchased it from bass direct. It's in mint condition and has been updated to the latest firmware. I'm also selling my twin HD112 Bergantino cabs (separately) so shout if you're interested in making an offer for the amp and cabs. Pick up only as I know what couriers can be like and it would be criminal to damage this in transit IMG_4347.MOV- 1 reply

that's very kind of you to say - I think it's a bargain too (of course) -
*SOLD* I've finally decided to sell my beautiful Vigier Passion III as it is sitting forlorn and unplayed and really needs to find a good home where it can be properly appreciated. I bought it new from Bass Direct in 2014 (one of the photos I've attached was the original one from the Bass Direct web site!) and it has never been gigged. It is absolutely mint with no marks or scratches and is as clean as it's possible to be! I has a parametric preamp and the signature neck that Vigier use to avoid the need for a truss rod.) It comes with a custom Vigier hard case. Working perfectly, playing wonderfully, and a pleasure to own. Happy to take payment in person by bank transfer once you've seen it and are happy. Either here at my home in Winchcombe, or I can drive a meet you halfway from wherever you live (within reason!) Photos attached, but if you want to see/hear it being played (someone inexpertly) you can see me playing it here:

I'm not playing this bass, and it's a real shame as it's a joy to play but I have too many basses and I need to make some space. It hasn't been gigged and is in mint condition as you can see from the photos. It comes with a Spector soft gig bag. Complete specs can be found on the Spector website here: https://www.spectorbass.com/product/euro4-lx-doug-wimbish/ -
Oh my, absolute, flamin', god! The actual one?? Have you got any videos of playing it? Do you want to sell it (I have three buttons and a toy unicorn to swap!)?

only to be disappointed!

Help needed! I've just been watching R+B on the BBC (BBC 4 - just now at 7pm Friday 15th Oct '21) and whilst watching paul young do his 'wherever I lay my hat' I noticed the great looking, and even tighter sounding, Stingray bass in action. I gorgeous tobacco sunburst lust-worthy version with a really tight, growly, sound. I never realised that Pino Palladino was the bassit for Mr Young and his playing was super slick. Now I *need* a Stingray, but my other half would kill me if I bought another bass. I know that if I just bought one I'd be Pino Palladino reincarnated. Help me to feel good about not ordering one right now!

I played bass in a band where the lead singer was the ex girlfriend of hot chocolate’s bass player! What a twisted claim to fame -
i think I recognize your drummer - is this Mr Fry?

It's been a while since I was gigging with bass (mostly drums in the last few years) so I'm reduced to noodling at home

What are you listening to right now?

Billy Bragg - Between the Wars... strangely prescient! -
Rotosound 77's - they're my 'go to' strings. I keep going back to them

It turns out that it *is* all in the volume knob! If it turn it right down, to about 1mm off zero(!) then I can match the output of the pedal when it's on to when it's off. It's *very* close though, even a tiny bit of movement and it blows the amp with a loud output! It's *hot*!

I'll go back and look at this - I may be being a spanner!

Ah, ok, this might be what I need - I'll try to find out about this
