Tanglewood Elf Bass Guitar. Very small only 90cm in length so perfect for kids, travel or just a bit of fun. I bought it for my kids to play about on and as a result it has a couple of cosmetic dings which I've tried to show but still plays and sounds great (pretty much gigable p bass tone). Some interesting relicing on the headstock where my dog had a nibble when he was a pup. I tuning peg replaced with a better quality closed back tuner. I think I still have the other 3 which I will include (probably worth more than the bass!). I've owned it about 10 years and it is now gathering dust so needs a new home.

Trials and collection at Downend in Bristol or postage at buyers cost and risk.

Joined a new project playing the Wall so trying to learn the whole album. Focus on Young Lust and Hey You at the moment. Trying to get the fills right and conscious of how exposed the bass is for a lot of it.

Squier Bronco bass guitar. 30 inch short scale so ideal for children and beginners as well as those who prefer a smaller bass.

Good condition, but with a few surface scratches and marks but plays and sounds great. Only selling as I bought it for my daughter to learn on and she has just bought a new long scale bass.

Collection preferred and trials welcome at Downend in Bristol. Postage possible at buyers cost and risk. 

Open to sensible offers or possible trade for a banjo.

I may be interested in a trade for a fretless 4 string oflr a Black and Maple P bass with some cash my way. I'd like to do any trades in person not post. Thanks

I do occasionally travel from Bristol to Hook in Hampshire or Solihull with work so meet ups may be possible along the M4 or M5/M42 and very occasionally to London (Paddington or Victoria).

Also open to sensible offers and I can stick some 45-105 strings on if wanted.

Probably going to regret this but I'm not gigging and this doesn't get used much so putting it up for sale. USA made Musicman SUB series Stingray in teal with black scratch plate. I've owned it for a few years and despite loving the look and sound of Stingrays I always miss having a neck pick up so never end up playing it as much.

This bass has seen some use before I got it and has a number of small dings, is missing the battery cover and a previous owner has stripped some of the black paint from the neck to help playability. The bass plays and sounds amazing as you would expect. It's currently set up in D standard with 50-110 Rotosound strings. 

Any trials or inspections welcome at Downend in Bristol. I'd prefer collection in person but do occasionally travel for work and can post at buyers cost and risk. I can include a old but serviceable Hiscox hard case for an extra £30 if needed.

Thanks. Collection is preferred but I could meet along the M4 corridor between Bristol and Reading as I travel for work occasionally. 

Blackstar HT1 All Valve 1 Watt Practice amp in white for sale. Great little amp but doesn't really get used. Built in Reverb, 2 channel (clean and dirty) and speaker out so it can be used as a head. Couple of small marks in the tolex but otherwise all works as it should. Collection from Downend in Bristol.

Hartke Hydrive 112 Bass Cab. 12 inch speaker with a high frequency driver. Switchable between 8 and 4 ohms. Great cab just surplus to requirements and trying to free up space. Collection from Downend in Bristol.

Cabinet construction: Bass reflex
Power rating: 300 Watts

Happy to look at shipping at buyers risk and cost but don't have a box at the moment and would much prefer buyer to check it first.  I also travel to Hook in Hapshire for work every now and again so a meet along the M4 between Reading and Bristol may be possible.

I believe it is it the v2 rather than the v3 but not 100% sure. I bought it from a guy before xmas who'd had it for a while but didn't know how long and had mainly used it as a guitar amp

Fender Rumble 100 bass combo Amp. Sounds great and everything works as it should. Has a built in overdrive channel.

Only selling as I bought it for my daughter before Xmas and it's too big for her needs so have got something smaller as well and don't need both.

I think this is the v2 version and the guy I got it from said it'd only had home use.

Happy for you to try first and collection from Downend in Bristol.

Wildcard are at the Blue Lagoon in Bristol 9.30 though to 1ish.  Possibly our last gig for a while so hope it's a good un!

More proof that you can't kill a 90s Peavey. 

Donated too. All the best with it. Cheers steve

I'd be well pleased with that. 

 

Abomination to God would be my first album title. 

Sound like a John Peel session. Gospel of Salvation with their new song Abomination to God!

The Bristol shop used to be pretty decent but last time I went in to try basses, I waited ages for one to be taken off the wall then got given a tiny practice amp a few feet from a guitarist trying out a big valve amp so couldn't hear what the bass sounded like. I asked to try it where I can hear it and was told to come back another time. I bought one elsewhere. 

It's even worse since they moved to a shop where there's no parking. 

Completely agree. I used to go in a lot when I was in  the city centre. Now they are opposite Temple Meads I never go. Haven't been in since buying my daughter a guitar there Bout 18 months ago.

So our first rehearsal for a while last night at our usual spot. We use a village church and have done for years at reasonable rates with our fees being welcomed to the up keep of the building. After we finished our drummer had this on his car which I am temped to add to our posters and possibly a t-shirt. I also think "The Gospel of Salvation" could be a great future band name!

Figure it out - Royal Blood

 

We're doing it with guitars, so a slightly different arrangement, but I've still got to learn it all. 

Great fun song. Here's our version with guitars if iflt helps 

We are currently leaning a few new ones including Get the Fink out by Extreme. Really fun line to lean. A bit challenging in places but the hardest bit is getting us all to play the run downs in sync. 

Been toying with getting a B6 for a bit and noticed that Andertons and Amazon are selling for £299 which is what I've seen as a good used price so have pulled the trigger. I've got a B3 which I use a lot but like the idea of more flexible pedal chains and the 4 di models looking forward to getting it in the next few days and wondering if it will push me to go fully ampless.

Been playing this today and it sounds and plays great getting close to withdrawing this and using it at my next gig but still open to sale or trade
