  1. Do what what we all do and that's buy one bass after another until you find the one that clicks, sell it then regret it and then keep on buying. I'm up to #40 or so in 7 years. Or you could buy a Precision and never need anything else.
  2. Bump at £350. £395 posted
  3. Now sold to a very nice man. Cheers Carl
  4. I had the older 100w. Awesome bit of kit, and I echo Grangur on the tone options. Just don't expect it to keep up with a loud rock band. How on earth did we survive when 100w was the most you could get?
  5. Now reduced to £325 posted, £295 collected
  6. Now £425 posted fully insured, £380 collected.
  7. Nothing missing or broken. I tend not to sell gear that's missing or broken, at least, not without pointing it out. Weird I know. Closer ups
  8. Right Andy. I was always taught to slope the saddles to match the curve of the fingerboard.
  9. Barefaced Retro Two10 (12ohms). Weight: 14 kg. Steel grill version, and comes with a Roqsolid cover in black with black piping. The cab is in almost immaculate condition. There has been slight slight peeling of the tolex round the edges of the back panel which I've caught with tolex glue. Collection preferred from North Suffolk, £350. I can post but its expensive fully insured - £395 all in. Happy with Paypal (but no fees thx) or cash on collection/meet-up. This is cheap - only a bluey more than a new One 10 and much more capable. And apart from the signs of slight tolex peel, in almost as good a condition as a new One10. No trades I’m afraid.
  10. Fender P Bass MM icy blue metallic ("Blue Agave"). Not easy colour to photograph. Bottom pic of a jazz bass I found on the net gives you a better idea of the colour of my bass. Dates from 2005 I think. It's in great condition but does have a few small dings to the body, nothing major. In the pics it looks silver but it's actually a clear icy pale blue. Coming from Squiers, I always thought any P bass was as good as the real thing. Not so. This is built better, balances better, plays better and sounds better than any P bass clone I've had, bar none. "It's a Fender" in this case is really worth saying. Put it this way, I fitted a KiOgon loom but took it out again because the original was that much better. Genuine rosewood thumb rest and Dunlop straplock pins fitted £350 Collection from North Suffolk preferred but I can post if the buyer pays for insured cartage which will likely be £20-25.
  11. Paypal. Ill try again.
  12. I just paid my £20 to post ads but the site still won't let me do anything over £50? So is there a delay in the system and if so how long? I had hoped to post the ads tonight but BC hasn't even emailed confirmation I've paid.
  13. Hiyah Is there any way of deleting a post or opting out of a thread once you've commented? I don't want to keep getting notifications of fresh posts in threads I've lost interest in yet I can't remove my original post that triggered the notifications.
  14. Likely going to a well known bass retailer for a commission sale if its not gone by this coming week.
  15. access scott devine 's blog on 'why a six sucks'. It's worth watching because its actually full of tips on how to make sure your six doesn't suck.
  16. 4.1 kg. I just tried the neck dive thing and while it won't sit on the knee unsupported without tipping toward the headstock, once you've got a hand under the neck there's no feeling of having to counter neck dive. My Fender P bass is the same.
  17. any chance of a sound file sample?
  18. What sort of music do you do no 6?
  19. Between amps. Was about to sell my active Alto tx10 floor monitor / PA cab and thought “why not use that for practice and small gigs?” I don’t understand electrons so before I plug in, and thoughts o r warnings?
  20. Sorry to piggyback your thread but you’ve given me an idea. I’ve been looking to downsize from a bf 210 to maybe a tc 2x8. But now you’re making me wonder if my 280w alto tx10 monitor would work for pc and small gigs. Would it work as a small combo or will putting a bass though it blow the driver?
  21. Scott Devine says he's string indifferent, and who am I to argue with a genius millionaire who's playing makes my hair stand on end. But IMVHO strings do vary enormously. I can't bear stainless (I know, just saying IMHO, not knocking your HO), but even among nickels and flats there's enormous indifference. I once had a six and a 5 of different makes. One loved Overwater strings, the other loved D'Addario , but they sounded all wrong if I swapped the strings over.
  22. Anyone any experience and comment on this model? I'm not expecting it to outpace a Barefaced Big Baby, but wondered just how good the sound was within reasonable limits. And reliability. My first experience of a TC RH250 and BC210 cabs didn't give me huge confidence. But I need a cheap small viable -for-small-gigs combo.

    5 String Advice?

    And an E-C 5 or a 6 make things similarly easy if playing classical, avoiding long stretches and gallops up to the 24 fret.
