  1. Due to the pending delivery of a new bass... Epiphone Thunderbird Classic IV in white with case. Through neck, Gibson USA pick ups, sounds great and looks cool. It's used so has some buckle rash on the back and it has a small chip on the bottom edge. Collection from Hartlepool.
  2. That's a great amp head. I found it a big improvement over the previous ABM heads.
  3. Same as mine. Worth £450 all day long, they sound great!
  4. Got to stack my Barefaced Four10 on top of another 4x10 last night so it was firing bass at my melon throughout the gig... first time I've had it at head height or any cab for that matter. Wow, it sounded brilliant, sound guy was impressed with the 4Stroke 500 aswell... told me turn it up! Didn't have to ask twice. Gig was a cracker too and chilli nachos on the way home... wonderful.
  5. Stop making me want to spend money.
  6. Sounds you me like you trying to convince yourself not to buy a BB2024/5. Lol You know you love a Japanese custom shop Yamaha.
  7. Try an EBS Billy Sheehan Deluxe. I have had one on my pedal board for over a year, it's great. I've had Darkglass stuff and a couple of others but this one has killed them all off. It's very good.
  8. Just the two pedals left.... get your wallets ooot!! 😁
  9. The Deluxe is a fantastic pedal
  10. Wow, great bass! That is exactly the same as my old bass from the 90s, an absolute breeze to play. Chopped mine in for a Trace Elliott T Bass, should have kept the Ibanez, the T Bass was awful. Good luck with the sale.
  11. It's the bass version. I was given the option of what case I wanted to have by Dave Hall when he was building the first batch of newly designed VT1 pedals. I chose to have mine in the the blue Spitfire casing as I used to own a blue Spitfire... car not plane. I think he only only made a few in that colour.
  12. EBS Fuzzmo - sold
  13. That looks great in pink!
  14. XTC - Making Plans For Nigel
  15. Ampeg B100r... that's what I'd try and get. Lovely sounding combo and not to heavy. Unfortunately no longer made but they do pop up for sale now and again. Should never should have sold mine.
  16. Bass Clone sold
  17. Don't get hung up on the through neck. I own a Streamer Stage 1, it's nothing like any Yamaha I've owned. Not in feel, sound or playability. Same with the Spector it sounds and feels like a Spector. All great, all different. BB3000 or BB1200s that's the fight. The quality of the early Japanese Yamaha basses is remarkable.
  18. Both Flangers sold
  19. Pedal clear out Boss MT2 metal.zone £35 Dave Hall Amps VT1 Spitfire Bass Pre Amp DI in special request blue case. £sold Collection from Hartlepool... postage £5.00 The other pedals will be going once that lot has gone... well, maybe not the Billy Sheehan Deluxe.
  20. BB300 is a nice bass, it's simple and it produces a great sound. As Peter Hook used passive Yamaha basses previous to the 1220s it will sound similar. Yamaha have recently released a couple of short videos with Hooky on Youtube, he talks about them in the interview. The BB300 is a bargain of a bass, big old beast though.
  21. The 734a has been used live by Hooky and Jack for quite some time... the feed back was that it sounded right. I believe the previous attempt from Yamaha at recreating the 1200s was shot down in flames by Peter Hook. Obviously Hooky now has a very special custom job but Jack and the current bass player with Peter Hook and the Light still use the 734a. They do have an awesome sound, I only wish the neck was 38mm. I've owned mine for a year, gigged loads and recorded an album with it but I feel it'll next on the block. I've had several Yamaha basses in the last few year and this one is bar far the most versatile.

    Thunderbird

    I'm currently using an Epi Classic. It's pretty good, I like the neck, the quality is okay and the sound from the USA pick up when using a plectrum works for me. I have never owned one previous to this so also had to cough up for an extra long strap... it's definitely an around your knees bass.
