  1. Pics to follow. Brilliant lightweight Barefaced cab which needs little introduction on here. Sadly I’ve not really had the opportunity to use it much since owning due to change in direction with band, one acoustic gig and that’s about it. This is the black grill type, 8ohm, 200 W I believe. Has the classic tolex role off where the ends have peeled a bit but could easily be re-glued, it hasn’t bothered me and is quite common I’ve since heard. Has a cab cover. £300 collected or courier at cost. May consider trade for a Markbass 2x10 8 ohm traveller cab.
  2. A recent new band to me is an all female USA pop art, dare i say slightly psychedelic, band called 'Warpaint', never heard of them until about 6 weeks ago and been listening to them ever since. Not sure what it is i like about them as it's not the usual stuff i'd listen to - perhaps just some well crafted tunes, nice vocals etc.

  4. Purely coincidence but I’d printed this earlier today and it seems to fit the bill apart from the wider end screws are about 2mm further apart. I should of taken a shot of the front which shows the peg being the ball end type, not a straight shaft of the BT2. I’ve got a BT1 on my stingray and the tuning peg is much shorter on that than the Elwood - thanks for your input guys, hugely appreciated 😊
  5. Just wondering if anyone would know which model Hipshot extender detuner would be used with my Maruszczyk Elwood jazz - seems to have the standard tuners from them. I’m think BT7 but not sure.
  6. 8th July 2002 I saw Pearl Jam at Hyde Park. Have to confess to not being a die hard fan after the first two albums but the gig was bloody brilliant, excellent guitarists, and of course…the ‘Jeremy’ moment 😉
  7. Perfect bass apart from those sticky up pole pieces of the older models - designed to shred your fingers! Easily rectified with a bit of cardboard, no loss of sound.
  8. Anyone know which Hipshot D-tuner I’d need to use on my Elwood? BT7? Cheers
  9. Awesome collection there - what's the Status like? Never tried one.
  10. Well, customer service goes a long way with me. Even better when a retailer does you an unexpected favour out the blue. The story was that classic cutting a string too short. Bought some lovely DR's off here at a good price but stupidly cut the D string a tad too short that it was slipping on my newly purchased Stingray. Gutted to say the least I took to Dr Google to find me a retailer who'd sell me a singular string. Gutted even further i couldn't find anyone, other than across the pond, who'd sell a singular DR string. Enter 'another Lee' from Strings Direct - a quick email, unsure they can support so they'll get back, had a quick reply and luck is on my side - they're able to meet my needs...but it gets better - Lee to Lee you can have it for free. I'm bowled over by this to say the least! Despite offering they even paid postage...what amazing excellent support from a retailer, top notch! I've bought from them before but will make extra effort to go there again. Customer for life! Supreme customer service.....So BD in Middle Earth, UK i hope you're reading this So, I'm bigging up Lee at strings Direct - simply brilliant!

  13. New basses week! Not had a self indulgent bragging moment for a while 😀 Marus Elwood Jazz landed last week - simply brilliant, lightweight, warm sounding with nice slap tone…perfect! 96 Teal Stingray, arrived today - feel like a dog with 2 doodahs! 8.5lb weight, low action, pure funk machine, just total perfection! Along with the 74P this is my best holy trinity to date 😀😀😀
  14. Absolutely, kind of wish i didn't have to sell - the quality is amazing for the price
  15. Sire P5 Precision bass - 6 weeks old. Only selling to recoup some monies on a recent expensive purchase. These Sire P5's are really fantastic basses, especially the rock-solid roasted maple neck with a rolled-edge fingerboard, medium-sized frets, open-gear tuners, string through body and a genuine bone nut. I also asked Andertons to send me the lightest they could and this one is 8.4lbs. I have also fitted an excellent Tonerider pickup for a more mellow vintage tone as i found the original Sire had too much high end treble for my liking; happy to swap this back though if preferred. The gold pickguard is just simply a vinyl wrap over the original Tort pickguard and can be easily removed should the buyer wish. Comes with a generic gig bag. No trades thanks. Can be couriered at cost or collect from Plymouth. Courier will be around £25 ish. Bargain at £300, cost £410 only 6 weeks ago.
  16. SOLD Cheap but certainly a very cheerful preamp. A mate tipped me off about these and i was super impressed! Bargain for £30 - only a few weeks old, sold bass that i was using it with and my new jazz has a pre already fitted. Has seperate gain control to tame it, controls are vol, blend and stacked bass & treble. Blurb: 2 band preamp/tone control w/ adjust gain for JB bass. 1 Set JB2A Preamp/tone control (With Jazz Bass Control Plate + Control Knobs). This preamp features an adjustable gain which allows you to boost the input signal up to 15dB while maintaining flat frequency response. This preamp is a tone control preamp with very low noise and wide boost/cut range. The sound is extremely clear and transparent. Distortion is well below 0.001%. P&P an extra £5 in the UK.
  17. Excellent used pick ups,: £65 collected , £70 posted Blurb: The hum-cancelling Ultra Jazz™ takes a traditional Fender® Jazz Bass® sound and really opens it up. Lows are deeper, highs are more percussive, and the mid-range is round but not muddy. Harmonic overtones jump off the strings. It’s also quick; with instant response to either fingers or pick-style playing. There’s only one word for this combination of qualities: “musical”. Choose the perfectly matched Ultra Jazz™ Pair, or try an Ultra Jazz™ Bridge pickup with a Split P™ in the middle position. The appearance of the Ultra Jazz™ is traditional, but the wide dynamic range and frequency response of the hybrid magnetic structure allows both vintage and modern sounds. As with the Model J™, hum canceling is achieved with each coil sensing a pair of strings, rather than a stacked design; even with a relatively high DC resistance figure, the Ultra Jazz™ has very strong, percussive highs and clean lows.
