hmmm... guess would consider splitting.... !!

still a newcomer at this..... so if i should breach any etiquette - forgive me and let me know (politely please ) look what I found! - a Bassman cab to complement the amp! the amp.... Its been a workhorse and has the scars to prove it - serial is F0 plus 5 digits so I believe that makes it '80 and, by the looks of it, has spent many of those years being thrown in the backs of transit vans the plate is Silver (face) but, again, I think that is meaningless with the 135's as they were all silver except for some *later* models (80.. on) which had the Black(face) but were only cosmetically different - the insides were the same (thats what i was told anyway - and i believe everything i'm told......) the technical bit.. its got 4 big valves and 3 little ones.... Its no good asking if its original / what are the valves / have bits been changed - all i've done is turned it on, plugged in and played i've had it several years and its not been serviced, no valves have been changed whilst i've had it - its just worked and pumped out that classic Bassman sound through a variety of cabs Could be recovered I guess - but that would hide the stories it could tell the cab Its a Bassman 100 - big, but has sturdy castors and heavy duty handles fitted and.... the original speakers have been replaced with Celestion BN15-300X ' s (300W Neo magnet - just read what they say about these on the web) - so its nowhere near as heavy as the original I don't think these cabs are as efficient as modern day designs - but these speakers sound good and just see how the rig looks!! looking for £600 cash but negotiable for trades (quality bass ?? old bass??) If you fancy a trip to the South Coast then come and try it - could probably find coffee or a beer

[quote name='Huggy and the Bears' post='972934' date='Sep 30 2010, 05:11 PM']I've got one too... Actually it was my dad's. He bough a new blonde/blackface (that sounds wrong!) amp and cab in '65 and upgraded to a new fangled black one in the 70's with 2x15 cab. Got me into shape moving it for him when I was kid! After he died I started using it and it will stay with me forever. Good luck with the sale![/quote] hmmm... just imagining it with that 2x15 cab !! ....

[quote name='Matty' post='967222' date='Sep 24 2010, 10:48 PM']Still not interested in my P-Bass?[/quote] hello matty... be a fool not be..... but do i really need another p-bass when i have a '62, a gorgeous japanese Tokai hard puncher, a heavily modded squier, and an SQ precision ! course i'm interested! but... just trying to finalise a sale to a chap in belgium and hoping it goes through ok - it'll give me some cash! cheers again roger

[quote name='Bassnut62' post='966133' date='Sep 23 2010, 09:25 PM']WHAT!!!! This amp hasn't sold already?!!! Are you all mad? this is the best bass sound money can buy and Rogerds is mugging himself for you. You don't even have to hit him over the head to take his fine fine amp! Have another free bump on me, Rog![/quote] appreciated '62 - i thought i'd priced it to go the first day! now i may *have* to let it go to the dark side and see if there's any interest in the (ahem!) guitar forum... or just let it slide down the list for a couple of months then see if anyone wants a christmas prezzie! looks like you have the bassman 15 cab? - now the two together look and sound great - there's one (cab) going locally.... hmmm... am i tempted?? of course not!!! roger

[quote name='jamesugster' post='950743' date='Sep 9 2010, 03:48 PM']Hi all, I'm thinking of revamping my rig and going back to separate heads and cabs for more flexibility. I've got a 102p 2 x 10 Markbass combo with a LMK head. This was never a standard model and had to be ordered from Italy... I'm open to offers on this... Cheers JAMES[/quote] PM'd

[quote name='p58' post='950433' date='Sep 9 2010, 11:45 AM']free bump for nice amp. I owned 76/77 bassman 100, the old silverface. I´m still in love with that amp, superb sound ... only sold it because I needed more powerfull valve amp, but I still miss the bassman.[/quote] thanks for the bump..... going to give it a blast this w/e - just in case its the last time!

[quote name='ShaunB' post='949372' date='Sep 8 2010, 01:01 PM']Highly recommended chap is Roger... just wondering where he's got a hankering for an RH450 from *ahem*[/quote] all your fault!..... but am having a few second thoughts... what i really , really need is a light, reasonably powerful 2-channel amp so that i can bring out the cyberbass again.....

[quote name='gafbass02' post='948935' date='Sep 7 2010, 10:37 PM']I only played through one once as a teen and it's stayed with me ever since. I'd love to own one.[/quote] i'm not saying a word....

[quote name='Bassnut62' post='948530' date='Sep 7 2010, 05:26 PM']Have another free Bump on another Bassman fan Great great great amp that will brighten anyone's day to play through it. So what if it's heavy, we're all bass players here, so we'll be down the chyropractors before 45 yrs old anyway. Good luck with the sale................and yes, you are of course completely mad to sell this beauty, but you know that already and what's it got to do with me anyway. No doubt you must have a very good and hopefully musically exciting reason to sell it.[/quote] been to them (chiropractors) already.... but as with anything... if its worth doing you get on and do it - and if that means carrying a bassman... you carry a bassman! thanks for the comments - roger

[quote name='BurritoBass' post='947741' date='Sep 6 2010, 10:31 PM']It makes it 1980 from my understanding. Yours looks a lot tidier than mine which is 1978 (the paint does tend to peel around the back from the valve heat) but they are such great amps. They are heavy... I added a flight case to mine & now it is totally unliftable That's a great price & I reckon you'll miss it.[/quote] stop it!... i know i *will* miss it.... but its time... its wasted on the stuff i do now (i know... as soon as its gone the gigs'll change s*ds law...) so it needs to go to someone who'll use and appreciate it.... thanks for the accurate dating

[quote name='bobbass4k' post='947596' date='Sep 6 2010, 08:12 PM']LM250 + £100 from me? Or I could add a pedal or 2 if you're so inclined?[/quote] hello ?bob? at another point in time.... maybe.. but not just at the moment - but thanks anyway i'm really after either one of the TC RH 450 or a 2-channel amp (light & reasonably powerful) so that i can use my cyberbass...... roger

[quote name='thebassman' post='947194' date='Sep 6 2010, 01:32 PM']Don't do it man, you WILL regret it. I've had mine for over 20 years and have nearly sold it a few times, then i plug it in and remember why i have had it for so long.[/quote] i know... i know.... i know..... and i so wish you hadn't reminded me !

[font="Comic Sans MS"]still a newcomer at this..... so if i should breach any etiquette - forgive me and let me know (politely please ) took it out for a blast last weekend... reminded me why we have these! just don't do the gigs for it anymore - so... much as it pains... its got to go no-one has any money - know the feeling - so now seriously open to trades - maybe a decent Jazz / Jazz style / Jaguar bass ?? worth trying anything if you fancy it - but please don't be offended if what you're offering is not for me!
