  1. Hi All, Arrived yesterday a new ACG TKO from Alan. It is one of two he has made and it is absolutely stunning, the photo's only get you 90% there. The texture within the wood itself really adds something. It comprises: Black Limba body and top. 3 piece Maple with carbon Rosewood neck, 30.5" scale. Hipshot Type B in chrome.Hipshot string tree, Gotoh GB7 tuners, Dunlop straplocks, Newtone strings. ACG PB pickup with Alnico magnets. Weighs around 7.5lbs (not put it on the scales yet). It has what I would call a true PB sound but with more tonal variation available. Can't wait to try it out at band practice on Tuesday.
  2. Lets mount a covert rescue attempt
  3. +1 I can only echoe the comments above.
  4. That's nice.
  5. Good film that Hiram.
  6. Dyerseve, I remember that idea from my days as a member of HiFi Wigwam. Still got the T shirt
  7. Only ever tried Status flats and they seem to have a pretty high tension (compared to the Newtone round wounds I use).
  8. Found this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-Blake-Bravo-Bass-Guitar-Case-Brand-New-Semi-Hard-case-not-a-bag/153041073423?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20160908110712%26meid%3Dbba9b87f455e40cb8d2f4717df973597%26pid%3D100677%26rk%3D8%26rkt%3D30%26sd%3D292579991634%26itm%3D153041073423&_trksid=p2385738.c100677.m4598
  9. That's a nifty amp bracket JohnDaBass - simple but effective. That stands good as well. Food for thought with the Two10. Many thanks.
  10. Up for sale is my Scott Whitley SWB-1 4 string bass I purchased in mid 2016 and is one of the original versions that Scott launched under his own name. Details: Short Scale 30.5" 24 fret Ash body Rosewood fingerboard 24 fret Jazz style pickups Volume and Tone controls plus pickup selector switch Fitted with Dunlop dual straplocks Weight: 7lbs The bass is in very good condition with no marks as far as I can see, the protective plastic is still on the rear control cavity. Will be strung with a set of GHS/Newtone round wound strings but can include a used set of Status stainless steel flats if required. The price includes a serviceable hard case. Looking for £299 collected from just outside Lichfield, Staffs/could meet up/courier at cost.
  11. Nice you to hear you are happy with the sound JohnDaBass - I have the Two10 and concur with your conclusions. Would be interested in your DIY bracket. What stand are you using?
  12. I not sure what level of total volume is required in reality but we do two punk numbers and my 4 ohm Barefaced Two10 fed from an Ashdown Retroglide has never struggled against a loud drummer and 2 guitarists. In fact I have only had compliments about the sound. The 4 x 10 fed by an Eden 350 we use at practice does not really cut it in the same way.
  13. I've got one of these, they are an extremely versatile amp and great sounding.
  14. Welcome to the forum D.A
  15. It's a 2004/2005 model if I remember. The finish is Bubinga. It's a cracking 5 string.
  16. Snap mine to
  17. Welcome Dan, I'm based down the road in Burntwood.
  18. Drooling and envious sir
  19. Excellent choice. Spec details as per eude would be great if you don't mind rmcki.
  20. It had a good review in the Bass Guitar magazine a while back.
  21. 30.5" here due to the playability and weight. Don't think I lost anything but gained a lot moving down from 34".
  22. Currently have Delano's on the short scale P bass which are excellent and it's a bass you played when you were here Skezza.
  23. Hi Skezza, Have a chat with Andyjr1515 he is only in Derby.
  24. By the size of transformer in the bottom picture (unless it is an optical illusion) I agree with RandomBass.
