Clarky

and replied!

FYI, I checked out delivery costs and this would be £10-15 within mainland UK, depending on service, and circa £20 to Northern Ireland

[quote name='Dr Phibes' timestamp='1359386394' post='1953917'] Just to chime in here. I had the E strung with no fret buzz or interference with my playing style, not uncomfortable or rough under my fingers. Sadly, the same strings buzzed on Clarky's bass. Give them a punt, the E may be just fine for you and a cheap as chips price for a set of backups. [/quote] Thanks Dr P! As a suggestion, if the buyer picked up a new E from alangregory for £38 [url="http://www.alangregory.co.uk/musicshop/Thomastik_Double_Bass_Strings.html"]http://www.alangregory.co.uk/musicshop/Thomastik_Double_Bass_Strings.html[/url] this would amount to £78 for a set of new/vgc Spiro Mittels, with a spare backup E. This compares with £138 at violinstringsonline, £150 at Stringzone and £116 at Thomann (out of stock)

So you will be the UK's first owner of a Big E from Mike Arnopol then (Inspector Clouseau here). If that's half as good as they say on TB you have the ultimate bigger DB cab

[quote name='TheRev' timestamp='1359487358' post='1955568'] Clarky, ordinarily, I'd be first in the queue to buy this off you, but I've just put a deposit on something a bit special. [/quote] Oooh, intriguing! As you are well stocked with amps I guess its (double) bass shaped?

*************************** tumbleweed ********************************* Surprised at the lack of interest in this super-quality cab

[quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1359396295' post='1954140'] Is the Mars Bar all original Clarky? [/quote] Has a Badass? Suddenly you are interested .... But seriously (folks, said with Groucho Marx moustache and cigar) this is ridiculously good value and Chris is a great guy to do biz with. As 2,437 BC'ers know

So you wouldn't swap the tuners for a Mars Bar and a copy of the Beano?

NB, I just checked the web and the best prices I can find for Spiro 3/4 ADG are at alangregory.co.uk (Thomann doesn't have all the individual strings) and the G/D/A prices are (to the nearest pound) £28, £30, and £33. Combined thats £91! So £40 for all three in pretty good nick plus a sort-of-usable E is very good value in my opinion. Just sayin'!

I've played through this amp and can confirm that - ignoring a bit of cosmetic scruffiness (which I am sure could be tidied up with a razor or similar if you were so minded) - it sounds fantastic. Just like a CMD121P should. Great little combo

The full set has gone. Set with damaged E still available - note the damage could be worked around by twisting the string so that the area of slightly raised metal winding faces the G side - that way it won't impact the board or your left hand. The BCer that sold me the strings (Dr Phibes) told me that he had the string positioned so that the damage didn't impact his playing or sound. However, the ADG alone are in good condition and worth £40 IMHO

Lucky buyer Very beautiful instrument

Forgot to add, this comes with the footswitch, which has velcro underneath. Now I know why Jack put some velcro on top of the amp

pls delete mods, realised I need these

This is a sale only, I'm afraid as I have my eye on BB2000's Wizzy Mline 12 cab
