I'd say this is the best bass I've ever had. I'm a dyed in the wool precision guy, and I still rate this as the best.

I'm sure everyone knows all about these - based on fleas own 61 jazz.

The pick ups are the best I've heard and each pickup has it's own tone and volume, so endless tone possibilities.

The looks are the best I've seen. Cool and classy and aged to perfection.

This has also been professionally set up and the frets dressed and I think even rolled, so it's super smooth to play.

I cant say enough good things about this bass. Stunning looks, stunning sound, easy to play and are going up in price so a sound investment.

Pick up Leyland Lancashire.

This has now sold. Thanks.

I'm selling this sansamp bddi v2 pedal.

Very nice condition.

Amazing sounds either direct di or straight into your amp or effects loop.

Very flexible and just adds that extra warmth and magic everyone wants.

In good condition - I never use my pedals as foot pedals, just as an always on, so it's just lived on top of my amp.

For an unbelievable light powerful rig, mix this with my markbass ninja 210 combo for sale in the amp section. 15kg svt anyone?!

The bottom has velcro on, which can be removed. Although there is no battery cover from memory, but it's never needed as I put on my board.

Comes with tech 21 tin/case and paperwork as shown.

Collection from Leyland Lancashire or could look at postage.

It's that time of year again where the taxman wants my money so I'm selling a few things to keep him happy....

This combo will blow you away!

And it's only 15kg!! 

15kg!!

It's very very loud - my previous mb rig was a 4x10 with a lm3 and this is go good I sold the 2x10 ext cab as this was more than enough.

It has a great eq - very flexible - anything from really deep and scooped to bristling high end.

It also has DI, speaker ext outputs, and much more.

It also has a nifty flap that can be removed and refitted to allow easy access to the plug and di - or store cables and pedals.

I used it with the sansamp I have for sale in the effects section and it covers any sound you'll ever need in a 15kg rig!

I'll also include a cover for the 2x10 ext cab which fits, but is about a few inches short, but does a great job.

In excellent condition.

Sale only, no trades.

Pick up Leyland Lancashire. 

All manufactures more vertical 4x10s. Especially the diagonal design ones. On wheels. With good handles. Nice and tall to, so we dont have to stoop to wheel it in.

I was on a few sites yesterday GuitarGuitar, Andertons and P M T and was suprised how much 'B' stock was being included on the Black Friday pages.

Yes, and watch them for giving you b stock without telling you its b stock as well - PMT especially.

X2 equinox gigabar ii cob lighting.

Really fantastic lighting system.

X4 cob led pars on each bar all pre wired for connectivity, dmx and power. Simply plug one cable in and you're good to go.

Comes with great cases, stands, foot pedals and everything you need.

The wedding coordinator may well mean pli and has just heard indemnity said by someone and calls it that, meaning liability.

Just ring them and double check. I'd be surprised if it's not pli she means.

You can already get 1/2 rack cases - lots of pro radio mic receivers, IEM transmitters etc are half rack width (for mounting two side by side) and the cases are pretty widely available. Just manufacturers not bothering to look if an existing standard would have done the job!

Yeh, the problem is though they dont do rack ears for half rack sizes per class d amp etc, otherwise thatd be great, and there doesnt seem to be a universal width for the current class d amps.

A small half rack (ish) prewired case with x2 class d amps, a tuner, sansamp and rack plug sockets, all weighing around 10kg would be lovely...

Jazz basses - do them like my flea jazz bass. 2 stacked pots both with volume and tone for each pickup.

Such a simple idea, but magic to play.

On the launch vid they did mention that the combo heads would now have top plates so it looks like they are ok with the idea of swapping the heads.

Just a shame we'd have to buy 2 things to get the 1 we wanted!

The heads in the combos look tiny though from what I've seen? Ie not so swappable with their normal sized heads.

If markbass did a stu hamm amp combo (or a stu hamm amp size swappable combo) I'd be all over it.

How about a newer universal rack size now theres so much class d amps out there? 

And yes, then follow it up with mandatory rack ears.

Also then new rack tuners, sansamps, preamps and fx in the new rack standard size - instead of 19".

Apologies. This went a long time ago.

Some great ideas, keep em coming. You never know someone might act on some of these.

Duplicate post

Ashdown - put a tuner in the space of an extra vu meter.

Ampeg - release an updated Yamaha manufactured new class d or a/b Ampeg head and cab. Maybe with a graphic like a mini svt4.

Or a new lighter and affordable a/b head. £1200 for a svt3 is a bit expensive to take a risk on.

And lighter cabs.

EBS - get into more shops so we can test them out in the flesh.

Ernie Ball - sort the stingray ray34 quality control out.

Laney - make that digbeth vertical 410 a lot lighter.

Quilter - make a new bass amp with a bit of bass colour and drive. And sort the di into a true xlr di rather than the line out jack.

Hartke - smaller a/b version of the classic amp with mixable valve and solid state and a graphic eq. And sort the distribution out so we can see them in the shops.

Fender - high end amp. I like the rumble but how about something more full on?

McGregor - the amp specs look great and feature packed. These need better promotion. They need a bit of a refreshed look if possible too.

Trace elliot - lightweight cabs. The 30kg new cabs miss the mark for me.

Barefaced - just toughpaint all the cabs, get rid of the tolex.

Markbass - get some consistency instead of being inconsistency wacky! Their whole amp range has everything I'd ever want (DI, mute, eq, valve drive, compression, usb, fx, 2 channel) but its spread across about 7 amps! Just put the features into 1 amp

....and re release the stu amp (if possible with a comprehensive 10 band eq).

Tech 21 - how about an amp version of a more detailed fly rig - x2 sansamp, chorus, tuner, octave, di etc.

All manufactures who make these new style combos with the built in vertical heads - make them so you can attach a spare head quickly in an emergency. Most at the moment have the speaker lead hidden trapped behind the amp, so the whole thing is redundant if the heads break.

Anyone else any ideas feel free to add....

Hi all,

Just clearing out some things I dont use.

So up for sale as a job lot are:

Pedaltrain sst - boxed - space saving tuner. Very narrow, slim tuner great for compact pedal board etc. (you will need a 9v adaptor as they dont come with one).

Set of pick ups from a bass centre precision bass. In a dimarzio box (the dimarzio replaced these in my bass).

Levys strap pouch for securing wireless units etc.

Earth hum isolator.

Behringer hum reducer.

Markbass bass keeper. Brilliant for when you've no stand etc.

X2 gold knobs.

X2 rubber feet.

X1 snarky tuner. Needs a battery (these are about £1). I'll throw this in for free as without the battery I cant test. So take this as spare or repairs although I'd be surprised if it didnt work.

Probably £100 worth of stuff there. I just need the space, so £30 gets it.

Collection Leyland Lancashire.

Pubs - 99.9% are an absolute waste of time when it comes to advertising. You're just wasting time, energy and hope.

They dont even do simple, simple things - advertise in advance in visible places in the venue for one.

I only ever came across one great pub that new what to do. He even did things like hanging mobiles of each of the next 3 months gigs from the top of the bar, so you could see whose on when getting a pint and make a note to come and see that band. Simple and probably cost £1 each to do.

Tributes/own gigs etc - Now more than ever you need to really promote yourselves. Not easy at the moment. But pick the venues carefully.

Agent gigs - let them do the promoting - and get paid upfront.

I got out of the corporate/wedding band thing after covid, I really started to dislike it and had a hankering for going back playing pubs where you connect better with the people there. I still do the tribute scene, but weddings and corporates are not for me anymore.

Prices definitely 'should' go up for 2023.

I'm willing to bet they dont though, and that venues/agents/bookers will try and squeeze bands even further.

Everytime I hear hartke in comparisons like this they always sou d great and up there with the best. Such a shame they just arent really competing over here anymore.

Yes, theres nothing worse than just all the band continually changing red, green, blue all night in a never ending colour wash.

For a simple set up, think of it as 2 sets of lighting. 1 to actually light the band (so people can see them) and 2 for the disco style party effect.
