  1. I think that the BG 250 115 combo that was also up for sale has been withdrawn now but I just wanted to jump on the back of this and say that I picked up a 115 combo last week and to my ears it's just as loud as my staccato head running into an RS212 in a gigging situation with 2 rock guitarists and a loud drummer. I really wasn't expecting the combo to get anywhere near volume wise but it's really impressed me, so much so that I've put my separates up for sale! 

  2. This is my TC RS212 cab.

     

    I've used this previously with a TC BH550 head and more recently with a TC Staccato head(also for sale on here). It sounded great with both amps but I'm downsizing my gear and have recently picked up a TC BG250 115 combo which is replacing both the head and cab.

     

    Good condition, only a couple of small marks here and there but nothing horrendous.

     

    Comes with the official TC padded cover.

     

    Here's the technical specs:

     

    2 x 12" drivers and tweeter.

    23.6 Kg 

    400W

    67 x 36 x 50 cm

     

    Collection only on this one I'm afraid due to the weight and not having anything suitable to box it up in.

  3. TC Electronics Staccato Head.

     

    This is great amp which I'd been using with a TC RS212 cab. 

     

    I'm downsizing my gear and have recently picked up a TC BG250 115 combo and the RS212 is now sold so just this left to move on.

     

    A couple of the knobs have been replaced which is the case on most of these TC heads but everything works as it should.

     

    Here's the technical specs:

     

    1/4" input jack.

    Tube emulation circuitry.

    3-band spectral compression.

    3 memory locations storing all front panel controls except mute and master level.

    Master level headphone output.

    Studio-quality headphone amp.

    Speaker out: Combined Speakon/1/4" jack.

    450-watt power rating (800-watt peak).

    Rehearsal input works with iPod and other music players.

    Sandblasted die-cast aluminium finish.

     

    Comes with the official TC padded gig bag.

     

    Price includes postage within the UK.

     

    I'm looking for another bass(4 or 5 string) and can put £550 together with this amp head in a trade deal.

  4. SOLD

     

    This is my Cort B5 which, although not the most expensive bass out there, has to be one of the best feeling bass I've ever played.

     

    This one is in teal green and has a lovely roasted maple fingerboard.

     

    It's pretty easy on the shoulder for a 5 string at around 3.8kg. 

     

    The neck is really shallow too which makes it really easy to play if you're not used to playing 5 string or flip between 4 and 5 like me.

     

    Full spec below:

     

    Construction: Bolt-On
    Cutway: Double Cutaway
    Body: Swamp Ash
    Neck: 5PC Panga Panga & Walnut
    Fretboard:  Roasted Maple
    Frets: 24
    Scale Length: 864(34")
    Inlays: Abalone
    Tuners: Hipshot® Ultralite
    Bridge: EB12(5) Bridge
    Pickups: Bartolini® MK-1
    Electronics: Markbass® MB-1
    Hardware: Black

     

    I'll be a little bit sad to see this one go but I'm selling a lot of gear at the minute in an attempt to make some space and also raise funds for the purchase of an Ibanez EHB bass.

     

    Price includes postage to mainland UK.

     

    Thanks for looking.

  5. Trace Elliot Transit-B Bass Preamp

     

    If you're of a certain age like me, you'll remember Trace Elliot and their classic sound.

     

    I've had my fair share of Trace Elliot amps/cabs and combos over the years and they sound great but they are so heavy!

     

    Well if you want the sound but not the weight then this might be just the thing for you! 😀

     

    I picked this up here in a trade with the intention of using it with in-ears but every time I turn up at a gig without my backline I get it in the neck from the rest of band who miss my amp!

     

    I'd really love to go fully amp-less but I think the whole band has to be on the same page and unfortunately they aren't prepared to do it so for the time being I'll be using my in-ears but with a backline for the rest of the band.

     

    Anyway back to the Transit B. This is a great bit of kit and sounds ace but I can't justify having it lying round the house unused, hence up she goes.

     

    Here's the spec:

     

    5-band semi-parametric EQ.

    Pre-shape button.

    Dual band compressor.

    Variable overdrive with blend.

    Bass enhancement button.

    Pre-compression/post-compression button.

    Chromatic tuner built.

    Built-in Pre and Post XLR balanced output

    Dry output.

    Headphone output.

    Aux in.

     

    https://www.traceelliot.com/resources/te-transit-b-om.pdf

     

    Includes an embroidered carry bag and comes with the original packaging, user manual and PSU.

     

    Cash is always king but trade-wise I'd consider a smaller pre-amp pedal(to keep as a backup in case my backline goes down at a gig) such as a TC Spectradrive or something along those lines.

     

    Thanks for looking.

  6. Welcome wingo84.

     

    I'm based in the north east too.

     

    As well as Basschat you might want to have a look at the facebook page "The North East Bass Bin". It's a good local site for advice and equipment sales etc.

     

    That said, if you're ever selling gear I always find that you get a better response on here.

    There is always the bassist shuttle run if you put out the request. People are crisscrossing the UK all the time so it usually only takes a couple of hand overs before it's in your neck of the woods.

    I did try posting something on here recently for another amp but didn't get any takers and the amp sold in the meantime. Maybe I put my request in the wrong section, is there a particular thread I could post on?
