Gibson EB3L 1972 Walnut finish Now £1,400 **SOLD**

Tidy!

Agree with some of the comments of other posters, in that you have described what a fairly hefty chunk of bassists would consider ‘the’ bass sound. My main go to Jap P has a crazy hot pickup, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. Works with anything...

Just sayin’ but... 2x12 TB combo up in the for sale now. Will give you the sound you want, all compact and give you readies left over for what I’m asking if you moved on you TH and BF... 😬😬😬 In all seriousness though, the TBs are great and do ‘that’ Orange tone beautifully. Had it not been for the pull back to Ashdown I wouldn’t be moving mine on. If you decide to go just for the head they (the 500w) seem to be cropping up on FB groups a fair bit lately for £300-£350...

Condition preference when buying a used Fender bass
mr4stringz replied to bassaussie's topic in General Discussion
After many ‘new basses’ passing through my hands over the years I realised about 10 years ago that the only ones I hold on to seem to be used bassesn. Precisions are my general go to basses and I like them to have signs of having a life. To the point that the visual condition doesn’t matter to me in the slightest so long as it’s just cosmetic. The sight of a well worn sunburst P with a tort plate is enough to get me all of a quiver. -
***On hold*** Orange Terror Bass 500w 2x12 Combo
mr4stringz posted a topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
As per description. I’ve moved to separates so moving this on. I’ve owned it for under 12 mths and purchased it from 2x18 of this parish. In great condition, gigged just a handful of times and otherwise has been living and used in our rehearsal space. In keeping with Basschat tradition I’m only looking to get back what I paid to anyone who buys off here, which I think is a good price given what the heads and cabs fetch secondhand individually. Same amp section as the TB heads. Nice cleans and easy to dial in dirt by bringing the gain up. Simple but great EQ. It’s nice and compact as it’s the isobaric speaker configuration (2x12, one behind the other), but make no mistake it cuts through two guitars and a loud drummer with ease. Really good projection as well considering the size. Its got the switchable 4/8 ohm option as well if an additional cab is desired. Will supply with fitted Orange cover, speakon and power lead. Going to have to say straight sale only, purely because I value my nuts more than GAS!!! Collection only from Great Bar (just off J7 M6) or could possibly do meet up in close vicinity, though I’d prefer it if it could be tried out first, just because that’s what I’m like! -
And maybe a Spaniard, huevo he may be.

Shocking, hissing at any and everyone? I’ve had a couple of pedals like that...

Stating what so many do but it still puts a smile on my face and restores just a little of my faith in (some) humans when I only encounter good, solid and genuine people on here. Have never had an issue with anything I’ve sold or bought on here. Always smooth transactions and never any issues. Good work, bass people!

I’m in the process of going back to using Ashdown gear. The way it goes, you go around the houses, then end up more or less back where you were 15 years ago! +1 on the added bonus of being able to get the guys at Ashdown to fix and service too. And the quality of what you can get for the money secondhand is dead right. Picked up (not literally) a physically battered but audibly perfect MAG 8x10 for less than £100 of fleabay and in process of purchasing an older ABM head off here. The whole rig for around £300?!?!? Still gives me enough left over for a more portable cab for gigs, with the 8x10 sitting in the rehearsal space. Bonkers.

Very much so. It’s an odd thing.

I haven’t. Are they as decent for the price as I’ve heard? that said I am trying to get away from a combo, with my TB is...

More good stuff there then. And bless ya, thanks so much for the offer. I’m West Miss is a fair way away but very grateful for the offer. Interestingly, I was thinking of pairing it with a Barefaced cab and have been chatting to Alex at Barefaced about that!

Cool. Bit of grind and a Precision is exactly what I was thinking of it for!
