HI ALL
It is with deep regret i have to part with my GB 4 STRING BASS but due to an ongoing messy divorce she has to go (HER IN EX DOORS AS ALREADY GONE)
The bass is translucent green with what bernie calls a wicker maple top looks stunning fitted with a 24 fret birdseye maple neck
Recently upgraded(4months) ago with the currant up to date electronics by bernie also had a new hip shot bridge and new control knobs fitted and a full service so the bass is like brand new
For those of you who do not no what bernies basses are like have a look at the gb porn thread on this site the sounds that can be achieved from these instruments is incredable what with the 24volt eg system with cut and boost of 24 db Ionly ever set my eq on the amp to 0 as the eq on the bass controls was more than enougth
also fitted are string retaners for ADG also fitted by bernie Iam looking for a quick sale of this bass so asking £1100 comes complete with GBhipshot case and keys
whoever buys this bass will not be disopointed will post at buyers expence but collection is best i will leave that option to the buyer
Thanks for looking this is really painfull selling this bass

i dont mind taking on the food job need to know how many for and what sort of food

I had the same prolem with a drummer last year he decided to go to france for a dirty weekend and we had to pull out of a festival once they do something like that you have to question there commitment we gave our drummer another chance he said he was sorry and said it wont happen again we then booked a studio session with a months notice and he then phoned us a week before telling us he was going to new zeland sacked him straight away had to council 6 gigs +the studio time and then spent 5 months looking for another drummer
but we now have a band with full commitment it does not work unless you all are singing from the same tree

welcome to the site

They sound so sweet driven at 4 ohms
come on you know theses are fab cabs in mint condition only selling as i am going over to ebs neo cabs

[quote name='Higgie' post='779341' date='Mar 19 2010, 01:41 AM']Are they both 4 ohms?[/quote]
Hi YES THEY ARE

how much ?

no offers

ebs freak is also looking for an another gb i had bernie has got it on his old website i had to sell it a few years ago due to the ex
it was also a four with some facing as the aqu green but in burgandy red with birdseye maple neck and all gold hardware if that bass ever come back up i would by it back

[quote name='phsycoandy' post='779119' date='Mar 18 2010, 09:01 PM']i may be wrong, and I did fancy it at the time

[url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=6237&hl=gb"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=6237&hl=gb[/url][/quote]

yes thats the bass bought it from a guy in italy

[quote name='pantherairsoft' post='779091' date='Mar 18 2010, 08:35 PM']1 of 212 is enough with the Fafner, that's generally what I use. It's 600w and the Fafner pushes much less than that into a 4ohm cab and it's bloody loud with loads of clarity.

It's enough to keep up with a full metal band. Have a 2nd 212 is you really need the volume. I found the 212 to sou d clearer and more defined than the 410 anyway. But that's just me. I'd go try them all[/quote]

Thanks mate for your help i will let you no what i am going to use

that has got to be the funnest name i have seen on here to big up geezzer its never to late to learn what is also nice about playing is the socail life that goes with it once you start in aband and get gigging that feeling of playing live is a feeling that you never forget

WELCOME
Gary (47)

[quote name='supabock' post='779014' date='Mar 18 2010, 07:17 PM']Yes i did, but briefly........I came from using a trace 4x10 but the EBS was clean, tight and pwerful with more punch and very responsive to the higher frequencies. I find the combination of 210 and 115 best suited for me and the size was convenient also. I recommend that you try out this stuff as it is very subjective[/quote]


Iam torn at the moment between 2x2x12 and 1x 4x10 only really on the basis of size as the neo 4x10 is rated at 1000 w
so would only need this cab with the fafner

What Bass is That

[quote name='supabock' post='778616' date='Mar 18 2010, 02:17 PM']I think that Bernie's basses have a much wider spectrum of use than just benefiting from being played through EBS gear. The basses are awesome and so is the amplification. I favour the 115 and 210 with hd 350 head. The 15 gives a great piano type tone at the low end and great clarity, and is not at all flappy. I had a 212 on loan from Bernie and that was a little more rounded in its sound, but i found them both similar in the amount of punch. The 15 was the keeper in the end[/quote]

DiD YOU GET TO TRY THE 4X10 NEO

when i first stated playing 30+ years ago there was not much chioce of cabs and amps around my first set up was an HH Bass Machine 250 watt head with a 1x15 hh cab and a small carslbro bass combo the 15 inch cabs then where very heavey and very wooley sounding no tweaters then trace elliot got on the seen and then ashdown we all then started to experiment with 4 x10 2x15 2x10 1 x15 12 inch drivers seem to be a bit hit or miss after several set ups i have found that you have more scope with your sound with 12 inch drivers with a tweeter love the sound of 2x12 cabs with tweeter to really get a top quality sound 2x12x2 with tweeters takes some beating
one other reason why i asked about your 1x15 cab if the wattage is differant from the 2x12 in past experance i have found that as soon as the lower wattage cab starts to peak it effects the sound from the other cab and can cause conflict i know people say that you should try to match amp output with cabs to drive the speaker but if you are looking for a nice quality claen sound at reasnable sound levels i have found that you need to have loads of head room in both cabs with some power handling
i will be changing my aggies for the neo cabs as i also know that bernie seems to set is basses up for the ebs equipment as he will tell you if you are useing something else you are not hearing what his basses are about

Hi and welcome hope you enjoy your re incarnation into the world of bass nick carn great bassplaying really new how to make a fretless sing
hope you get alot of help from this site i seem to be spending more time on here now than ever lots of great accurate info on here from very experinced players who dont mind sharing there knoledge with other members
Regards
Gary

thanks for that iam going to arrange to go down to bernies only an hour from me and try out the neos why did you opt for the 1x15 to go with the 2x12 i wonder what two 2x12 neo would sound like
