    Pete is indeed BM's tech, but Chris Ward also does work for BM as House Music (who own the Bass Collection brand) are the manufacturing company for Brian May Guitars. When I picked up my Fender after Chris had worked his magic, Chris was in the workshop restringing a 12 string acoustic belonging to BM. The weight of the bass is around 4.5 KG

    [b]PRICE DROP TO £295 - £260 for cash on collection. [/b]Really need to invest in the next amp and this will fund it. Still open to a trade for the right kind of compact but powerful amp. [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#000000]Only selling because I don't need so many instruments!

It is no word of a lie when I say it shows - it really is a beautifully set up instrument that plays sooooo well. I was so impressed that I asked Chris to do a full set up on my Fender which instantly propelled it into a different league from its shop setup.[/font][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=-webkit-standard][size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Complete with a fitted Bass Centre gig bag and a premium Bass Centre strap.[/font][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=-webkit-standard][size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]You really will not go wrong with this lovely instrument [/font][/size][/font][/color]

    [quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1467539726' post='3084320'] I can't believe this cab is still here. It was a custom build for me by Mike at Purple Chili. I only sold it because I got the EAD 212. It's very light, loaded with an Eminence neo Basslite and is very musical. The band I was gigging with at the time hated my Ampeg 610 and loved this. I left the SVT Pro II at home and gigged this with a GK MB200, super light and super tuneful. [/quote] Thanks Sean, its is a lovely sounding cab and I'm on that cusp of keeping it, but really need to downsize, and whilst its not a huge cabinet, its bigger than the domestic authorities are happy with, now the band keep their kit at home.

    For sale - an excellent cab I am reluctantly selling in favour of investment in a more compact (and portable) combo. Purple Chili 115NT [s]£400[/s] dropped to 300
  23. disgrace of bass
    My GK amp and Purple Chili cab are going up for sale in the Amps & Cabs for sale section as I now have a bill for £107 for a new tyre...well its not the only reason but it sure is an annoying one! Hope everyone had a great day. Gutted to have missed it.
  24. disgrace of bass
    Really gutted I am not going to get here. Just having to deal with a puncture, and because I have one if these stupid roadside repair kits rather than a proper spare tyre, I'm going to have to abandon my journey and head for a tyre fitting place. Was looking forward to meeting you all in the flesh too! Grrrrrr.
