Another shout for the Bose S1 battery (or mains) powered PA here. I've had mine for several years now, and have used it for busking, and folk pub-jams. I also used it for a couple of small, acoustic gigs. It's loud for its size, and very portable. It also has 2 standard jack / mic inputs, and a mini-jack for MP3 players / phones etc. As has been mentioned - it ain't cheap, but much louder than the Micro Bass Cube. Quality build and sound though. Oh, and you can link them up if you have two (possibly more?).

I have a short scale (smaller than 30") which was built by Jabba. I didn't order or commission it - I got it used, on the marketplace on this forum. The bass is a thing of beauty. It's a really well crafted instrument of very high quality indeed. @Jabba_the_gut's work is of a consistently high level of quality when I see his builds on here.

Where can I get some decent bass sized straight edges?
Marc S replied to Marc S's topic in Repairs and Technical
Thanks for that @Reggaebass I had looked at screwfix - don't know how i didn't spot that. Looks like it would do for a non-notched edge anyway- 11 replies

As per my title - I'm looking for a couple of straight edges, suitable for bass. I've tried searching online and eBay, and despite including the word "bass" - the search comes back with guitar sized straight edges. Ideally, I need a notched 34" edge, but ideally I want a plain (non-notched) straight edge too. I've looked at Toolstation, but couldn't see anything suitable. Any links to known decent suppliers are very welcome. Happy New Year fellow BC'ers 😀

Columbus jazz bass - refurbed. - *WITHDRAWN*
Marc S replied to mikegatward's topic in Basses For Sale
A Columbus Jazz was the first bass I ever played. A workmate owned it, and let me play it for a short while. This was before I had ever even thought about playing bass. (I had the loan of an awful Jedson guitar at the time). I had pondered picking one of these up - just because they're inexpensive, and for a trip down memory lane.... This is indeed a really nice restoration job 😀 GLWTS -

Now £375. For sale (no trades). Now discontinued. Markbass dual channel 500W bass head, inc Carry case / bag. I'm a fan of Markbass gear, and this head is really superb! The 2 input channels are separately EQ'ed and controlled - which is useful. Also, each channel has 6 individual preloaded amp tones. It's also possible to mix the sound of both channels, for real flexibility. It's in mint condition, as it has lived in the padded carry case since I bought it. It hasn't been over-used or abused and is a really reliable head which is great for all genres. I even used it for upright, and doubling up with bass guitar. I'm only selling now, as I got a brilliant Stanley Clarke Acoustic pedal, which also has 2 channels, so this is no longer being used. It's just too good to keep in a cupboard. The carry case / bag is also in good condition, and is really well padded - protecting the head well. It's simple to use, as the head stays in the bag while gigging (the fan is at the rear). It has a large pocket on the front / top - which you can fit several leads into. It also has the option of a carry-handle or shoulder straps. The case itself cost around £60. My one criticism of the head, is that it would be even better if the panel was illuminated... but my small clip-on light did the job. As ever, I prefer collection with expensive items - and I like to know the buyer is happy with the sound. Based in Barry, South Wales, and you're welcome to have a tea or coffee whilst giving the amp a whirl. I can post, at a push - if the buyer arranges a courier. (I'd prefer to insure).

Hmm, I've not come across one of these pedals before. Interesting

Hats off to you sir. A very brave thing to do. Hope it works perfectly for you 😀
