Total Watts

  1. Just taken these out of a bass that's being retired. Not much to say other than they are very clear/clean sounding and battery life is excellent. Comes with box with wiring diagram and VVT pots and all the wires needed to get them working. Price includes postage to mainland UK. Thanks for looking.
  2. Dunc took a Trace Elliot Elf head off me. Royal Mail messed about with the delivery and Dunc showed patience and understanding throughout and even visited the depot to try to sort things out. An all-round decent, honest bloke.
  3. This has served me very nicely the last couple of years paired up with a GK cab that I also have listed. I've used it for jazz/jazz-funk gigs and I've never needed more power. I did a couple of gigs using this with one of my EBS cabs when I wanted the comfort of a bit more headroom and it gave more than enough. I was thinking of keeping it as a backup but now I'm using an active cab so it's of no use to me in that context. This can be picked up/demo's in Brighton or I'll post to mainland UK for £10. Specs here: https://peavey.com/product/trace-elliot-elf-ultra-compact-bass-amplifier/ Any questions, please ask. Thanks for looking.
  4. Believe it or not, this has been my main gigging cab for the last couple of years. It's been paired with a Trace Elliot Elf head and it's served me pretty well doing jazz/jazz-funk gigs in pubs and even outdoors. Full disclosure, the drummers and guitarists have been of the more subtle variety - you're not going to have the headroom for rock with this. There's hardly a mark on it which is some feat given it's painted aluminum. Comes with Roqsolid cover. Reason for sale: I've got a preamp/active cab setup now so this is surplus to requirement and gathering dust. Can be picked up/demo'd in Brighton or I'll post within mainland UK for £12. Specs here: https://www.gallien-krueger.com/mbx-112-specs Any questions, please ask. Thanks for looking.
  5. I bought this about a year and a half ago from a fellow BC'er and it's never been gigged in the time I've had it. I'm selling this as I've gone down the route of separate preamp with active cab so this is surplus to requirement. At home I paired this with an EBS 1x10 cab and it's so loud I barely got the master and gain above 1! The eq is very nice and natural sounding and there are lots of cool features. See here: https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/product/grbass-one-800/ Bass direct has them for £749 so this is a pretty decent saving over new. Can be picked up/demo'd in Brighton UK or I'll post to mainland UK for £10. Any questions, please ask. Thanks for looking.
  6. Apparently it's the mix of modern and vintage features. This is from Fender's own blurb: LIMITED QUANTITY The Made in Japan Hybrid II is a series worthy of being called a "hybrid", as it retains its vintage looks and incorporates almighty modern specs for any player or music genre. Regardless of rhythm or lead, we have created a product that combines playability and instrumental tone that fits any guitarist or bassist. I think in the case of this bass the vintage is the passive electronics and the 20 fret neck. The modern is the through body stringing option, the tuners and the bridge. I bought it as I wanted a totally no frills instrument with decent playability and build quality and I also wanted a heel adjust truss rod as I'm old school in that regard - rightly or wrongly I think they are more reliable than bullets or other headstock adjust truss rods.
  7. Stonking price and beautiful rosewood fingerboard.
  8. I took the cab to my friend's basement and whacked it up to full volume and with a passive bass and flat preamp eq it was pretty clear. Boosting the bass caused a bit of distortion but this is only a 10" driver. Overall I'm pretty impressed. A few bassists and other musicians came in and out while I was trying it out and there were definitely a few puzzled looks and head scratching when they picked it up after hearing the sound it was putting out.
  9. My GR cab turned up today. Initial impression is that it's pretty much what I was hoping for: light and loud. I've got the Natural Fibre 110 active. I'm using a Darkglass Vintage Ultra preamp I'm really happy with the sound. The cab doesn't add or take away anything. Just nice uncolored amplification. Have a gig coming up soonish so we'll see how it stacks up.
  10. Hi, I don't have a body to go with it so another neck isn't any good to me. Very much trying to reduce my gear to the minimum.
  11. Cool. I notice the active cabs have 4ohm drivers and I reckon the 350W power amp should be enough for my needs.
  12. Good to know. I've asked Bass Direct to order a 1x10 and I'm waiting to hear back.
