  2. Thanks for the enquiries Hope the answers are in the OP now and Ill add other responses into the OP too until Bump time wends it way around and to just add that the Ramp was attached via double sided tape , leaving no residue or markings when taken off A whille since Ive posted so trying to get the details together Trades of course welcomed but trying ( very trying ) to downsize and or get something Vintage(y) and more fitting to my current and future Band/Gig which is primarily 50s /60s /70s R&R C&W ( P Bass , EB , 4 string / Medium scale / Short Scale / Hollow etc ) and or lightweight Cab / Head think Barefaced and were on the right track Trade to approx. 50% of value above ^ Gary

  8. KYDD Carry On 30 " stand mounted EUB Good condition bar 2 marks on the Backside where I stored a preamp pedal More pics to follow [attachment=244765:DSC_0306.jpg] 30" scale 6lbs weight without stand Coffin gigbag Fishman BP 100 Transducer Headless tuning bridge Manfrotto stand mounted ( supplied ) Had a lot of fun with this over the last few years , easy to play and portable to carry lug to gigs or fit into tight backseats or bootspaces Can do a reasonable upright sound with the right strings , currently strung with Labella White Copper which feel good sound good but in more of an electric fretless way , a foam mute gets a better thud .

  9. Orange SuperBass 120 Reissue ( OR120 ) [attachment=244746:IMG_20140811_134429.jpg] Rocking Horse Mystery Amp from what I remember/read as a Gibson/Orange and maybe Matamp connection Very little info around on these so takes a while to get any perspective so .... Made in 1997 as a reissue of the original Orange SuperBass All Valve running EL34s at the output and 12ax7 / ec83s on the front end Gigged and loved using this for a few years after getting it in a trade deal with another BC Mate but loss of storage / weight / life / current and future gigs mean its on the block Trades are acceptable but need to involve cash my way and lightish weight amps or cabs or maybe a P bass Has the Heft / Authority /Power grind and drive of a Master Volume only Valve Amp and will make you sound better , make you more attractive to the opposite sex( or the same sex and make you a much better musician * Ill add more pics over the next few days along with other relevant info that I remember /find Can post but would prefer a collection /delivery / meet due to the size weight fragility Any Qs let me know Cheers Gary v8 * please be aware that this is not a definitive

  17. There's the KYDD carry on 30" scale and without the stand around 6 lbs in weight , think there's a pic of Bruce on his motorbike somewhere , bass over back off to gig . Can be played Pizz or Arco and silent ish for late night practice too Sound wise it's all down to strings , daddario Chrome's as supplied are meh ish but experiments with others yield not so bad results Then there's pickups too of course mag /piezo etc A minefield but fun to experiment with Good luck with the search Gary ( rubbish eub er )
  18. Just found a black 3d Schaller shim if it's of use lads I do love a BC Rich with the Moser set up Look forward to seeing this one up and running Drop a pm if you need the shim sent Gary
  19. Hi , Croeso Nice bass , tidy av :-) Hope you enjoy it here , lots of info , lots to look at Oh and there's a few why us shh welsh about too , just remember we have all the great bass players and footballers Gary V8
  20. Having tried a few for me it's Status all day , but aware costs etc If you can find the MM ebanol for the right money then it's a pretty good value one plus it plays nicely when all set up Last option is the De fret , didn't do Jaco any harm ;-) HTH Gary
  21. Sorry FB , should have said , give mark a ring It's just under the basses in the " Coming Soon " ( stop sniggering at the back ) Ie , scroll down to under the pics ! Was idling away mulling and cogitating over Limelight's and saw it Played through one for a very short time and liked it plus lightish compact and bijou Hope you can sort something out Cheers Gary
  22. Had the pleasure of giving this a go a couple of weeks back Really eye-catching colour and plays beautifully As a die hard non fender player it's made me think again Feels perfect looks perfect and maybe More Purple than the pics show and the neck is ,well , sublime , worn in and feels natural Took me a few minutes to find where to play , bridge cover , pickup cover and thumb rest but well worth it , a good tonal variation via the finger position and the pickup/volume/tone controls Really tempting Kert's a top chap too Gary V8 (Pondering what to do )
