Xotic BB bass preamp!

Super versatile yet easy to use. A constant on every board I've done since I've had it. They come up used every now and again.

Is this new or a special edition?

Limited run a few years ago I think

Thoughts on the Beta DLX?

 

i recently picked up the Beta Germanium which I like but would prefer as 2 separate “sides”

Sounds huge. It's nice that the boost has switches which change its tone too. I'd really like the lm308 version (like a rat) if I can get my hands on one. 

I used to have a 100w MK3 (when I used to fiddle about with guitar) Sounded great and massive on bass as well. Sold it to a doom metal band in Devon. Wish I had a photo. 

This month's revision. Flexible amount of distortion and a bit of chorus for some pseudo-fretless straight into the front of my ABM 600. 

I'm waiting for retailers to get their batch. I'd like to try one in person to see if it's worth the leap from the Evo IV. Hopefully they'll be a bit cheaper too!

Makes so much sense. The vu dial is tailor made for something like that. Even a small digital display would do. Even Harley benton when they ripped off the abm design put a tuner in there.

I mean, they've already made this pedal with it. Just put it in the amp! Nevermind, bring on the Evo Vi!

They're still missing the biggest trick. Use a VU meter for a built in tuner. I know loads of people who want an all in one amp, and go elsewhere because they have to take a separate pedal, plug, cable etc. I'm sure they could stick one in that chasis. Then itd have drive, comp, eq, octave, and a tuner.

Same thought went through my head. 

Also, an independent gain control for the valve drive. 

This being said, I have two Evo IV already but I'm still probably going to get one...😂

Does the ABM600 have the annoying notched master volume control like the RM series has?

Yes

Had this for ages - always does the job! 

The dog's danglies! Any idea what year? 

@BassAdder27

Very smart! 

Achingly beautiful. 

I should also mention that it weighs 30kg.

Interested in this, need something I can leave at our rehearsal room and have long had a soft spot for ABMs. I'd suggest meeting at the same place as we did last year, but we have a fuel problem here so may not be able to get there for a few days/weeks - if you're prepared to hold it until then, though...

The super sausage potentially awaits! I'll PM you this evening Dave. 

Back up for sale. 

A few things I've learned about the combo since putting it up for sale: 

Regular fans switched to noiseless fans

Regular speaker connector switched to SpeakOn 

Tweeter discounted 

Ports widened/extended 

Fired this up the other night and it sounded super sweet. A lot of time and power for not much money. 

Cheers.

Hiya, what are the noiseless fans fitted please? 

Hi, I'll check next time I'm at my practice space. 

Combo now on hold, thanks. 

Tatty but massive sounding Marshall VBC412. Not much to say but tonnes of heft and in serviceable condition. Would make a great cab for a practice room. Does have some decent castors on the bottom of it which makes shifting it a bit easier. Doesn't have a cover unfortunately. Apparently it was on tour with Rob Zombie at some point in it's life! It has stood in my practice space for the last few years and I need to free up some space. 

Any more questions or pictures, please ask. I won't courier as I don't want it to get damaged. You can come by my rehearsal room in Leicester if you would like to test it or I am willing to drive a reasonable distance outside of Leicester (say an hour or so.)

Thanks for looking! 

Bought on here a year or so ago from @fleabag with the intent on being used in a band which never came to fruition and has sat in my practice space since. In used but overall decent condition. Has had some nice noiseless fans installed as ABM fans can be noisy. Has castors on the bottom which makes it a bit more joyful to shift. Everything works as it should. Just another bombproof ABM!

All valve monster up for sale - a real powerhouse amp. 300w and a quite manageable 24kg.  

Bought from @binkybongo on here a couple of years ago, has seen a few gigs in its time but remains in excellent condition. I cannot confirm how fresh the valves are but it sounds huge and performs as it should. The only fault it has is that it has an LED out on the back (part of the biasing system.) I do have the part number to replace this but never felt the need. Comes with a nice Roqsolid cover that I forgot to photograph (d'oh!)

For sale, my Barefaced SuperTwin serial number 001! 

Brilliant cab that I originally bought from @FinnDaveon here a year ago. It's seen a few gigs in the last year but remains in excellent condition. All the power that you need in a nice portable package. A real one-cab solution. Reason for sale: I'm sticking with my Six10 as I prefer the coloured sound of 10" speakers. Comes with a nice padded Roqsolid cover.

Pedals are all in a lightly used condition with minor signs of playwear. All have velcro on the back from being switched in and out on the pedalboard every now and again. All pedals work as they should and are in the same condition as I received them in. Open to reasonable offers but no trades thanks. 

Mainland UK shipping included, any further pictures or info required please message me. Thanks!

Tip from the past, always use big valve amps and keep your pie/pasty/fish & chips on top,  over the vents - for after the gig 😜

Right next to the pint of beer 🍺

Yep, medium length strings, 32" will see you right. 

I only play flats now but I really liked DR HI-Beams in the past. They seemed to last a long while longer than other brands, for me at least. Don't know if they do 32" though.
