  1. I have to admit that it took me a while to understand EBMM's list, published in the forum. I even only recognized that the Classic Sabre is discontinued when A.J. from the Customer Service confirmed this in a post. What a shame. I was seriously hoping they would offer a 5-string version of that bass one day. Speaking about the colours: I am not sure what it's like in the UK but in Germany it seems the colours ordered (from the stores/the distributor) are only Black, Steath Black (argh!), Sapphire Black (obviously the most common), Honeyburst and Vintage Burst for the Classic StingRays. Some stores have had PDN instruments in stock like the Emerald Green Sparkle, Neptune Blue, etc. But what I rarely saw Natural, Black Cherry Burst, Pacific Blueburst, Tangerine, etc. So, the overall picture in German (internet) stores will not change significantly. I only hope that there will be new colours and perhaps another order/configuration mode for the instruments. And perhaps one new bass model for 2016?
  2. I am based in Weilheim, Oberbayern - 50 km south of Munich. As mentioned insured shipping to UK is no problem, did this a couple of times before (e.g. another Bongo and a StingRay 5).
  3. Obviously the Bongo sells better than the Big Al did. Even though I do not really think the Bongo is a big seller (looking at the big US internet stores, there are only a few in stock if any at all). But the Bongo has always been Big Poppa's masterpiece and darling (thanks so much!!!), so I think it will not be discontinued until he retires. The same might apply to the Gamechanger, that will obviously be continued. (I do not think they have sold more than 100 of those basses world wide, but you never know!). I am so curious to see what comes next. Obviously there are already two new guitar models underway. One beeing sighted here: [url="http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-guitars/61276-coming-soon.html"]http://forums.ernieb...oming-soon.html[/url] What about new bass models?
  4. Be quick! The Reflex line will be discontinued by 31 Oct this year. So this model's value might raise during the next years! Incredible bass by the way!
  5. Just read at the EBMM Forum: Music Man is going to discontinue a whole bunch of colours and models from 31 Oct. on. Among the cuts is the whole Reflex and Big Al line - what makes me in particular very sad. The Classic Sabre will only be available in 4 colours. And it seems that most (if not all) piezzo modells are discontinued. Here's the link to the announcement: http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-basses/61272-discontinued-music-man-list-october-31-2015-a.html

  7. Thanks mate! And yes, you're right - not easy to chose.
  8. [size=4][font=trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif]I am selling my Glockenklang Soul 2 Amp. It is an a very good condition and has always been kept in the Rockbag Rackbag. The amp has a brilliant sound and is very versatile. However, since I like it with a little more grunt I will stick to my Taurus THD 450T (previously withdrawn from the market place).[/font][/size] [size=4][font=trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#1C1C1C]Features: [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]440 Watt @ 4 Ohm, 250 Watt @ 8 Ohm [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]LED Peak for pre and poweramp [/color] [color=#1c1c1c]2 serial and 1 parallel Effect Loop[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#1C1C1C]2 Inputs with A/B Box - seperate trim option for Input B[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#1c1c1c]DI Out (pre/post, ground lift)[/color] [color=#1C1C1C]2 rack units [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Overdrive (via gain control)[/color] [color=#1C1C1C]switchable 5 band EQ:[/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Bass +/- 15 dB [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Low +/- 12 dB [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Mid +/- 8 dB [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]High +/- 12 dB [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Treble +/- 12 dB [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Rockbag Rackbag Features: [/color] [color=#212121]19" Gigbag 2U, Lid with ZipFront and back.

  9. [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]NEW PRICE: [color=#323232]£[/color]1250[/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]For sale is this wonderful Bongo 5 HH in Sterling Silver. The bass is from a limited "all rosewood neck" run in 2014 (according to EB customer service completed on 29 Jan 2014). The oil/wax finish on the back of the rosewood neck feels and plays like a dream. I am only letting go this beauty because I could not resist to order the same model from this year's Music Man PDN edition. Thus, please do not offer any trades. The bass is in a very good condition and has only two little dents: one on the upper shaping of the body and the "usual Bongo dings" on the tip of the headstock (refer to images). I am happy to ship all over Europe and to the UK. Let me know if you have any questions. No problem to call you back if you'd like to chat on the phone.

  10. Music Man Bongo HH (two Humbucker). Has a 4 band EQ on board an can do it all. I currently play a Sterling HH in my Cover band and can do it all with tweaking the 3 band EQ, too. But it is more agressive as compared to the Bongo.
  11. Nice bass. Do you know its year of birth? What's its weight? Thanks and cheers!
  12. Great video link. Thanks. Really wonder if he has a Music Man in his collection. By the way: I do not understand why the music in the backround is so loud ... (Yes, I am getting old ...)
  13. For sale is this incredible Sourceaudio Soundblox Bass Envelope Filter PRO. It is in a used but overall good condition (see pictures) with velcro on the backside. The BEF PRO offers tons of options to tweak and is a as far as I can see the best Envelope Filter on the market. In addition it offers a programmable 7-Band EQ. Please see YouTube review of the manufacturer below: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HggWSiVgnGc"]https://www.youtube....h?v=HggWSiVgnGc[/url] Happy to ship the pedal to the UK and all over Europe. Please contact me to ask for the shipping costs. Comes with power supply and original box.

  14. [size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]For sale is my Taurus THD-450T Bass Amp. It is a great sounding amp with a lot of options to tweak the tone (filter switches, parametric mids). The valve (JJ) of the preamp can be blended to the solid state sound to give the sound more grit. That used to replace my EBS Valve Drive for a while. I am only selling the amp because I switched to a Glockenklang Soul II.[/font][/size] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Some features:[/size][/font] [size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#1C1C1C]Solid State with Tube Preamp[/color][/font][/size] [size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#1C1C1C]450 Watt/4 Ohm, 300 Watt/8 Ohm [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Weight 4.2 kg [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]19"/1,5 Rackspaces [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]HxWxD 66x483x190 mm [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Mute Button [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Effect Loop [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]Outputs: XLR balanced with PRE/POST switch & Ground Lift, Tuner, Speakers (Combo Speakon/Jack) [/color][/font][/size] [attachment=212492:Taurus-_MG_5318.jpg][attachment=212493:Taurus-_MG_5320.jpg][attachment=212494:Taurus-_MG_5321.jpg][attachment=212495:Taurus-_MG_5328.jpg][attachment=212496:Taurus-_MG_5330.jpg][attachment=212497:Taurus-_MG_5331.jpg][attachment=212498:Taurus-_MG_5334.jpg][attachment=212499:Taurus-_MG_5335.jpg] [size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#1C1C1C]Description of the manufacturer: [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]The Taurus THD-450T is a 450W/RMS bass head with a double input stage including both transistor and tube pre-amps. The transistor pre-amp ensures great sound dynamics while the tube pre-amp provides a warm, soft sound. Both pre-amps can be steplessly mixed to offer the whole spectrum of desired sounds, from crisp and clear to slightly over driven tube. The Taurus THD-450T is equipped with the very effective and easy to operate MLO tone control system designed to find the right sound quickly. Tone setting characteristics are designed to reveal the character of the particular instrument, meeting its both technical and musical parameters. Extra precise control over middle range is effected by a parametric equalizer and pre-amp filters switches. Even thought the amplifier is operating in very low frequencies, the bass sound is still impressively selective. Unique high quality optical limiter is built in for fast and noiseless operation. [/color] [color=#1C1C1C]The Taurus THD-450T is powered by outstandingly efficient high energy Switching Mode Power Supply which ensures extremely high dynamics and power in a light weight and compact cabinet. [/color] [color=#1c1c1c]The amp is located in the Munich area, Germany. I am happy to ship to UK/Europe. Just contact me and ask for the shipping costs. Please feel free to ask any questions.[/color][/font][/size]
  15. I am looking to sell this beauty in absolute mint condition. The bass is very unique regarding the number of tonal options: The PUs (2 Neodymium "Single Coils" - hum canceling, 1 Ceramic Humbucker) can be combined in any possible way by either being switched on/off. The bridge humbucker can be run in parallel or serial model. 4-Band EQ (Bass, Treble, High Mids, Low Mids) and passive mode with passive tone blend. Maple fretboard with MOP inlays. Wonderful quilted maple top in Venecian Red with cream binding. Ultra Light Weight tuners. Weight is 4.55 kg. The bass is in pristine condition and did not see many rehearsals or gigs. Comes with the original Music Man HSC. The bass is located near Munich, Germany. I am happy to ship all across Europe and to the UK i.e. with GLS. If you have any questions, please ask!

  16. Mine is: Who Did You Think I Was from John Mayer. Really kills the lefthand if performed slightly too fast.
  17. What's it DOB? I can not read the S/N from the picture. I actually want to know whether it has ALNICO or CERAMIC PUs. If you could post the S/N here I could check on Musicman.org. Thanks.
  18. Traded a Stingray 5 for a Bongo with Mikkel. Very easy and smooth transaction. I would deal with Mikkel anytime again! Thanks so much!
