  1. That S2 is my old one. Not quite standard spec though, Burl maple top with Walnut/Walnut sandwich if I remember rightly. The walnut gave it a darker woodier sound then the average Status.
  2. [quote name='Ashwood1985' timestamp='1357821909' post='1928897'] Hey man, Into pronounced mids so thats cool! but what's the low end like on this? cheers [/quote] [url="http://www.dimarzio.com/pickups/bass"]http://www.dimarzio.com/pickups/bass[/url] Scroll down to the bottom. Loads of low end.
  3. [quote name='ash' timestamp='1357764193' post='1928139'] I'll have it - I need a spare - if you decide to sell. [/quote] Righto, i'll need to sell mp Ampeg, and with any luck my Dimarzio Super Woofer. Got a bead on a Gibson.
  4. Hey guys. I have an original Gibson Grabber pickup, in fairly decent condition for age, some string rubbing on the face. It includes the bottom slider plate. I REALLY don't want to sell this... Very hard to get hold of, REDUCED TO JUST £65 Picked up. Postage £7 extra. Payment by bank transfer or cash only. Cheers! R
  5. Hi guys. May be onto a deal for a bass at the moment, but need to sell some things to have a hope of getting it. I have a Dimarzio Super woofer, the thing that is in Billy Sheehans P bass. Ultra middy, stupendous output. Only a feeler at the moment but likely £50 Firm. Please register your interest.
  6. Hey guys. Its in perfect working order, with some scuffs and scratches. 500 watts, class D, fairly lightweight. Never been gigged. £200 picked up in London. FIRM Cheers! R
  7. [quote name='Zydian' timestamp='1357639666' post='1925641'] Looks like a stripped Kalamazoo. [/quote] Didnt think the Kalamazoos had that sort string bar on the headstock. Wrong scratchplate as well.
  8. Hey Wayne, got a guitar with a set neck and plays decent? Or a tele? Cheap epiphone would be lovely!
  9. I guess nothing can be done for non Facebook using members?
  10. This video pops up every so often. I think you'll all find it is a BC-Rich Wave with nipples.
  11. Straighter then a straight thing. Had the cash, offered full price. Really nice guy! Cheers! R

  15. [quote name='joegarcia' timestamp='1356654207' post='1912197'] Bump. Anyone had any more luck with this? [/quote] Circle K Shipping is about 15 dollars now. Tried Newtone but have been less then helpful in their replies to me regarding a Drop C set even after I said I was ready to plonk money down.
  16. Hey guys. For years I have been chasing a very growly cutting tone with little success. I have been aware of this band for a while, but the bass plaayer really is something else. He uses a variety of basses but seems to get a signature style growl that I absolutely adore. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqIoZr8j9cU[/media] This being my favorite one of all (Intro is fairly standard but wait til it gets into the song!). From the video it appears to be an Orange Valve stack, overdriven with a Lakland Jazz bass. Obviously whatever he recorded the track with could be different, however I reckon it was probably with some sort of valve amp with a J bass with a soloed neck pickup, anyone else care to chip in? Whatever it is, seems to be heavily compressed as his tone is very constant and present in the mix. Scooped mids you think? Flats, rounds? 60's or 70's Jazz pup spacing? Either way, great player and fantastic tone. Looks like the rest of the band are geared towards making him sound fantastic balance wise. Here is another track that you may enjoy! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8f7jGVaymY[/media] Sounds more P bass to me, but hard to tell. Current gear is a Fender P-J all maple P bass with Dimarzio Super Woofer and Ultra Jazz and a Gibson Grabber. VT Bass Deluxe, Ampeg PG-500, Barefaced S12T. Cant get anywhere near this tone! Ideas?
  17. I know this is said all the time, but if this was only available 4 months ago Would have snapped your arm off!
  18. [quote name='elbassisto' timestamp='1355823989' post='1903079'] no matter it is a great fretless : limited edition or not I've only reported the description from bass gear when they sold me this bass as limited edition [/quote] Agreed, it is the best fretless I had ever owned.
  19. Yup, this was my old one, sorry to say there is nothing limited edition about it. Pedulla do 5AAAAA as an extra option, but it certainly is not limited.
  20. Hiya. Pardon my ignorance but how is the Pentabuzz limited edition? Pretty sure its my old one and I am 100% it was not Limited edition. Does the fingerboard still have no finish on it? Cheers. R
  21. [quote name='bigsmokebass' timestamp='1355404383' post='1897916'] How are you finding the grabber? Sliding PU model? BSB [/quote] Yup slidy pickup. I love it to bits, my go to bass. So much character, I even splashed out on a second original grabber pup to put in in case something goes wrong with the current one!
  22. I think I played this exact bass a few Basschat bashes ago. Really awesome tone! It might not sound like a traditional SG, but it did have some really fat gospel like tones if I remember. It's another bass on my want list.
  23. That is awesome! Overused phrase, but if I had the cash
  24. According to the Musicman serial database this one has been registered as having a 1977 neck, with a 76 body. Sunburst with black pickguard.
