This is one of my favourite for sale posts ever, and is leading me towards emotionally unstable decisions….

Given the nature of the Bird... I'd prefer collection/Delivery but well packaged and very insured postage is possible.
This one has been my gateway drug, and before i knew it i've bought myself an old single pickup model. It's in mint condition, and comes with a great padded gigbag.
Pretty light at 3.8 kg, and personally I haven't had an issue with neck dive as these sometimes suffer from. These are proper neck-through models like the originals. As always please hit me up with questions/photo requests!

Both real and musical life has taken different directions lately... so I'm letting my (now discontinued) Sub 25 go. Includes protective cover and Trifibre hard case, and if collected original box and a top notch Gravity keyboard stand.
Collection vastly preferred but can look into shipping or delivery if i'm coming near you. Will also include a dropbox full of presets, some self-created some paid for.

Mwah... looks good in person. A proper test will have to wait until after my dog walk!

After what seems like over a year of trying, I finally exchanged some cash for one of Kate's items 🤣 Kindly travelled down to meet me in one of my usual 'trying to fit too much into a weekend' weekends. What a pleasant deal!

Trying to sus out what is wrong with my Bassman at the moment. Intermittent crackling, which i finally managed to capture.
This occurs on either channel, and when the amp is muted. No volume controls affect this at all. If i put the amp on standby the noise continues through the DI!
Any wisdom?

@ped It was fitted when i got the bass, and I think we felt that it was part of the story... and that it looked good anyway!

I've been a little neglectful of this thread whilst being away this summer... but the project is complete!
Here's a few progress shots...
Body stripped and prepared:
Primed!
Looking waaaay too blue!
Ready for go faster stripes
Stripes done
Big chunk out of the fretboard...
Seamlessly repaired... i can't even find it in person. New frets whilst we're at it.
And here we go... she's done!
Here she is with my other recent acquisition... a 1967 Hofner!
I couldn't be happier... she sounds stunning and plays so well. The one I've been looking for for a long time! Going out for our first festival outing together tomorrow (Monday), if anyone is at Twinwood this weekend!
https://www.eternal-guitars.com/... I can't recommend Dave highly enough. We've had so many geeky chats about the minor details on this, and it's turned out better than i hoped. His own instruments are stunning too.

My final foray into modelling/digital rigs (for now)... this has been my favourite but that world is just not for me. Used for 3 shows and well looked after! Comes with a far tougher power supply (original included). Price includes UK shipping, collection welcome or I may well be coming near you! The only thing i'd consider in trade at the moment is an Ashdown CTM30 as i miss mine dearly!

Unused, Price includes UK postage.

Bought this in the hope it might fit my vintage mustang but no luck. Dave at Eternal Guitars had aged it before we realised! This model fits Mexican-made fenders and would be a great drop-in for someone with a JMJ Mustang. Price includes UK postage.

Line 6 HX Stomp... took in a trade to try out before buying a HX ONE for my setup. Mint condition, with a brand new Protection Racket padded bag. Price includes UK Special Delivery, not really looking at trades but offers considered.

Up for grabs is a 3leaf Proton Mk4 in Icefall from February this year in mint condition. A pretty legendary and fairly unavailable envelope filter! Avoid the wait, shipping and colossal customs fees...
Price includes UK special delivery.

@LukeFRC that's what i'd normally do with an OC-2 or similar, but figured there's no way this would track that so never tried. Whaddaya know.... it does!

@Quatschmacher usually it's a bit of a pitch wobble, but i'd imagine pushing the modulation on this would probably have a similar effect. I will report back!

Damn, that sounds good! Nicely played & classy band!
A live clip like that is worth a thousand words, and puts to bed any lingering doubts for me at least!
The one thing i miss from playing this on the Moog is the little pushes of the mod wheel on sustained notes. I haven't yet experimented with the expression pedal but i bet there's a way to do it, or something external that can get close.

I feel like that video does the MXR dirty a little... as a pedal it does need a little practice to 'show' it the information it needs to generate the synth lines. The more I experiment the happier I'm getting, and whilst i still love my Moog, I'd have the MXR over a Novation BS any day already, and will leave the Moog at home now more than I would have!
Had a fun little dep at the weekend...

Lovely bass, what sort of weight are we talking about here please?
Luggage scales are reporting 3.8 kg

Up for grabs is this Belfast-built Kithara Samson shortscale bass in Turbine Bronze, as played by the likes of Dave Landreth, Finneas, and Lewis Capaldi to name a few. I'm really torn about letting this go, as it adds something a little different to my collection and is impeccably built, but since it's acquisition two 60's bucket list basses have joined my collection and i just can't justify having them all! Hipshot extender removed. I will also switch back in the original strap buttons. Currently strung D'addario 45-100, but I have the original La Bella flats, Ernie Ball Group Flats and a lighter Dunlop flats set all included. Again, happy to string up and setup to a buyers preference! Fits a guitar gigbag, one of which I'll happily include. Bronze metallic finish is unlike any i've seen... and changes vastly depending on the light. Seems a little more red in photos than in real life.
Collection preferred, well packed courier possible, and i'm around the country for gigs so feel free to ask!
Here's the spec...

I have one on the way... loved my old Khan DI and somebody already posted some samples and it impressed me enough to want to hear it in person. Interested to compare to my Noble! Wondering if something like a Linden EQ in front of it will get very close indeed.
