    But it would need to be very small.

    The complete package, and in its original packaging. Includes documentation / manuals etc. Plus neoprene pouch to allow attachment of the belt-pack to, for example, the tailpiece of a double bass. Original power supply & instrument cable. No extra charge for improved labelling.
  3. Happy Jack
    Yup, the original, in perfect nick and ready to roll. Superb condition, no wear, no issues.

    This came in very handy during Lockdown but hasn't been used since - time to go. In as-new, pristine condition apart from the removable label - I got tired of bending over to read the tiny labelling on the unit. 🙄 In original packaging with original documentation & cable.

    As new and in pristine condition, this was intended to replace my old H4n but in the end I bought a second H4n and an F3. 🙄 This is NOT the new 'Essentials' H6e but the significantly sturdier original unit which they now market as the H6 Studio. It's been used maybe a dozen times and is fully functional. Original packaging & documentation.

    Well spotted, Sir!

    I should also probably have mentioned that it comes with the GB Shuttle 4-button footswitch. And the soft cover.

    The whole 'kitchen scales' thing is just so declasse these days, don't you think? Here we have the intersection of luggage scales with a meat-hook ... so much more satisfying. And no, your eyes do not deceive you. The scales register exactly 9.5lbs = pretty much the weight of every decent (single-necked) P-bass in existence.

    I should probably have mentioned that it comes with the original Owner's Manual.

    Very little used since Covid, time to move it on. Comes with all the little bits of cabling etc. Condition is as near pristine as you're likely to find. Full specs are here: https://philjonesbass.net/cms/product-ha-1/

    With my kids in their 30s it's a long, long time since I could enjoy Xmas, but I've discovered one thing that really works for me ... a decent Xmas Market.

    Agreed. I've made a not-altogether-good reputation for myself by walking out of a number of bands over the last 10 years, either because our 'vision' didn't align or because they proved to be just not good enough (IMHO, of course). Some of my current bandmates are surprised at the way I do this, perhaps even think I'm a bit of a loose cannon. Me? I've never lost a moment's sleep about it. I walked away from a very well-paid job four years early, not because I don't like money but because I was well aware that those four years were (at that moment) the best remaining years of my life. The same equation still applies. I'll be 69 next month (no, I can't believe it either) and I have no interest in allowing anyone or anything to waste the best remaining years of my life right now. Use them or lose them.

    Never been in this precise situation but I've been close enough (several times) that you could see it from here. In all of my experience, removal/replacement of any band member is only acceptable is everyone is on board right from the start. If everyone in your anonymous band agrees that 'B' has to go, then he has to go. If it's just 'A' who's pushing for it, then all the non-B members need to go to the pub and have a chat with Frank and Ernest.

    So now I'm expecting you to paint your DB in camouflage pattern, using Humbrol paints. And then of course there are the transfers ...
  15. Happy Jack
    Looks great.
  16. Happy Jack
    Give @PaulKing a prod ... he'll get the top off for you in no time at all.
  17. Happy Jack
    Never done it myself, but I've read that you can fit a DB into most small hatchbacks by putting it in "upside down" in the front passenger seat, with the scroll right down in the footwell. Seat as far back as it will go, natch. Doesn't leave a lot of room for a passenger, mind ...

    I know more people who fix double basses afer I've damaged them than I do those who can sell high-end instruments such as this. Not much help, I know, but I'd sooner admit my ignorance than fire up the old bullshit generator ...

    Seriously Paul, if I had the woodworking abilities God granted to gerbils, I'd be over there like a shot to help you. Common sense tells me your chances of success are at least ... oh I dunno ... improved by keeping me 10 miles away.

    Excelsior!!!

    Paul, seriously, I mean ... W T actual F?

    Luke ... I am your father.

    Damn! Rumbled ...
  24. Happy Jack
    Well what else can I use my aircraft hanger for? Eh? Well?
  25. Happy Jack
    Great units these, and that's a very decent price. I already have a pair of CP12s plus a pair of CP8s so I can't really justify buying this.
