  1. I recently bought a yamaha trb 5 slapcut off this very forum, when it arrived it was obvious it had various issues......worn uneven frets which rendered the bass pretty unplayable also the pickups were fairly loose and i thought microphonic, and to top it off, a dodgy output jack. Well, knowing the quality of Aidans work (he has worked on many of my basses), i asked him to have a look and hey presto, he has sorted all the problems.....given it a fret dress(without taking the neck off, at my request). To say i am delighted is an understatement !!! Many thanks Aidan
  2. Just for info folks, i am based in the Durham area.
  3. Bump, all PMs replied to.
  4. After consideration I've decided this bass is too nice for me to let go, therefore I have withdrawn the bass from sale and apologise to interested parties for any inconvenience caused. Up for sale is my peavey millennium tiger eye (usa) this is a top spec custom shop quality bass!.....this bass is in wonderful condition (mint) and retailed at £1500 new these basses are very rare on these shores....Talkbass members hold these in very high esteem and rightly so! the bass features birds eye neck and finger board with abalone dots.....neck is graphite reinforced....35 inch scale alder body with flame maple cap. top quality hipshot ultralite tuners and hipshot 3d bridge millennium pre amp with semi para mids.....active pickups, so very quiet. trade wise, i would look at a 4 string bass, cash either way......happy to ship at cost (uk)
  5. the db 751 is the best amp i have played through, not a bad sound in there!!.......i am going to hang fire on an amp replacement as i think there is some way to go on R&D, in particular the power section although, things are better than the early class D amps
  6. could it be Low End.
  7. Just for info, when you undo the 4 bolts on the top of the combo and slide amp out, bear in mind , the amp itself has no lid (you can see the inside) I suppose you could get a sheet of steel cut for the top and use the amp like that, but a case to me looks better, be it wooden sleeve of semi-flight
  8. Looks like a 112 bass array to me.
  9. I took the amp section out of mine and had it semi flight- cased......great little amp!!...and louder than the 130 watts would suggest the original combo was quite heavy given it's size and sound wise was fairly poor although it had reasonable bass.
  10. ibanez neck tend to be well made....multi-laminate, volute on headstock and assuming the truss-rod is in good order, heavier strings should be no problem
  11. The early compact featured the eminence 3015 ho which is a very efficient driver.....the new 12 inch driver used now, as far as i can see is based on the 3012lf kappalite...or a variation of, so to get comparable volume you will need plenty of horse power.....of course i may stand corrected.
  12. Tune did apparently build levinson blade basses.
  13. Played a NYC satin jazz the other day at guitarguitar in newcastle and whilst it was very nice, i couldn't help thinking...where has all the money gone!
  14. If i get it in a skoda fabia, i am sure an A4 will be no problem.
  15. Just bought a yamaha trb 5 from David, and to say i am delighted is an understatement!......great comms and a top chap is he....... an absolute pleasure to deal with😊
  16. I can't believe this is still up for sale, a very well engineered cab loaded with quality drivers.....i heard warwickhunt playing through one of these with his thunderfunk head and it sounded superb!!
  17. I have the genzbenz nx2 212, great cab, only 47lbs, loaded with faital pro 12 pr 300 drivers and compression horn 4 ohm and vertically aligned!.....oh and built-in wheels.......there is one for sale at the moment at £300 think
  18. Great cab, i have one.....faital pro neo cast frame 12s, 47lbs and great tone.....GLWS
  19. Apart from the super redhead having more power, it also featured new 10 inch drivers ( eminence ) these apparently handled the low B better than the previous model.....all according to the review in bass player magazine.
  20. Regarding the neck, wood shrinks, a metal truss rod doesn't....I have had issues in the past.
  21. I saw Rob Burns playing through one of these back in the day....it sounded epic through two 1518 cabs and a bright box(4x6 if memory serves)
  22. Hi folks!....I have a levinson blade and plan on installing a sadowsky on board preamp ( the one already built on a jazz control plate) along with emg JVX active pickups I do know sadowsky have used emg active pickups with their tone circuit in the passed and i wondered, with the pickups being active would i have to modify the circuit in any way.
  23. without doubt, the best relic's.
  24. Just sold Shep my markbass sd 800, ......easy-peasy transaction, top chap and great basschater
  25. Looks very well made, but not for me.
