It’s a keeper I’m afraid..... -

I hope the GL went to one of our community. It would make me feel better, having battled with my other gear buying self not to press buy it now. -

I certainly should have but definitely didn't. My Shuker Orange reverse headstock jazz more than covers off my need for fizzy Geddyesque tones. -

I would snaffle it now but the guitar rack is full and I'd be in big big trouble if I buy something else......

Interestingly with that one having been a solid colour they have used a 4 piece body whereas mine, being a trans white, is one piece. Now it is sanded back, the 4 piece spoils its looks a bit for me....

Heres mine albeit sporting an SDSPB3 pickup instead of the original hand wound, raised pole piece jobby (I dig in and found myself grounding the A string on the pole pieces). They're a limited run and very nice......

I think it's an American Vintage Reissue Original '57 but the finish is stripped (obviously). They're pretty rare. I have one in Trans White. I think he means to describe it as an American Original 50's series reissue bass.

Very unusual Modulus with issues. Cheap but in the USA.

Is that a cheaper VJ4 then? I assumed it was an upgraded VJ4. You're right about the truss though. -

USA to UK voltage step down converter
vinorange replied to vinorange's topic in Repairs and Technical
Just had another thought so I pinged them an email to check on the dimensions. They immediately got back with their spec / tolerances; Our dimension is :OD120cm (MAX), H77cm(MAX). All seems very very professional, quick to respond and better than Marshall / Eden US and Gear4Music - none of whom have got back to me. -
USA to UK voltage step down converter
vinorange replied to vinorange's topic in Repairs and Technical
So I got in touch with WEBB, whose communication and response to queries is superb, and they sent back that the wiring specs will be as per the original design for the Eden Amp; Primary: 0-240V/BRN-BLU Secondary: 63.5V-0-63.5V/RED-ORG-RED 0(fuse)-11V/WHT-WHT 17V(T.S)-0-17V(T.S)/GRN-YEL-GRN That should mean plug and play. Fingers crossed.... -

Here's hoping.....Delivery may be a while from Taiwan but UK quotes for a handmade transformer were way higher and there weren't many who would quote. We really need to become a manufacturing country again.... -

I've sent them a pic of the transformer so I'd hope it's colour matched otherwise I got a bit of work.... -
USA to UK voltage step down converter
vinorange replied to vinorange's topic in Repairs and Technical
I bought a step down transformer, which works fine, but then wondered if I could get any response from WEBB who make the transformers. They've been incredibly helpful and WEBB are making a 240v spec transformer to the original 240 / 50hz spec and sending it for £150. Hopefully I don't have to mod the amp any further and it's a plug and play? -
Up for sale is my Ashdown Little Stubby 30w all valve head in excellent condition with no issues at all. Its an all valve head but in a compact package thanks to the valves being mounted horizontally. It sounds wonderful and if anyone is comparing the Little Bastard this then please buy one of these (and I don’t necessarily mean mine). The Eq is miles more flexible and you have control over the amount of fuzz. The LB breaks up too soon whereas you can choose where your signal gets dirty with the CTM30. I’ve had both and swapped the LB30 for this for that extra Eq / control. Here’s the spec and blurb from Ashdown but fundamentally you get, active / passive switch, drive control, bass, mid, treble, volume and effects loop on the front. On the back you get impedence selection of 4 or 8 ohm. It also has a TRS transformer DI out for help from the PA. Comes with original box and instructions, all padding and packaging so can be shipped (not with parcelforce though,....brutes.....). Can deliver or meet up within 50 miles of Bidston, Wirral. Thanks for looking. https://ashdownmusic.com/products/ctm-30-little-stubby

Up for sale is my Aphex Bass Xciter Big Bottom bass exciter / enhancer pedal. I’ll be honest and admit I don’t know exactly how this thing works but you pop your dull, average sounding bass in one end, twiddle with the Low Tune / Low Blend and then the High Tune / High Blend knobs and out of the other end pops either a DI or lined out signal that adds bottom, definition, crispness and attack to any bass. I used it with my jazz, P, Rick and Kramer and once used everything sounds a little dull and, indeed, unexcited without it. Excellent condition. Takes single 9v (although screwdriver required so not in the fly) or 9v adaptor. Having a clear out to fund an Ampeg SVT or Mesa 400. I know. I’ll need a chiropractor too. Thanks for looking
