I tried the Biffy Squiro CV bass today in Mansons..I think its definately on the cards for a future purchase for me- The Biffy mainly for the colour as i have a LPB Lakland & the CV 51 P-i have no interest in Biffy Guiro. Again a totally amazing quality bass to play. I tried a road worn Mex that was just under 1K and i was left very unimpressed compared to the Squire. I then picked up a USA Jazz too, it was ok but not worth the extra money over the Squire. I am sooooo impressed with these Squires!

[quote name='redstriper' post='949020' date='Sep 8 2010, 12:24 AM']Hey Rasta ! How is it for reggae - as deep as the front pup on a jazz bass ?[/quote] Hi Steve, not tried it for reggae as such but we do some dubby stuff in the prog outfit (Ozrics, Gong kinda thing) that i jammed with lastnight and it sounded soooo nice and warm with good defintion-not muddy. Hard to say if it matches the jazz pu but i am going to gig it this weekend with Steppaz so will road test the dubbness then. The qualtiy though of the bass in unlike any Squire i've ever played before-very smooth and like a bass costing 3 times as much-i wasn't expecting it to be this good. You will definitely like the lightness too....not sure on the weight but a lot lighter than the average jazz. [quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='949027' date='Sep 8 2010, 12:35 AM']Welcome to the CV fold! [/quote] Impressive collection there mate. How does the jazz rate against the 51p in terms of quality etc ....are all the CV's really amazing? If so i could join you in the all squire vibe!

Well, well, well....i believe the hype. I scored a cheapish second hand Squire CV 51P bass...i'm blown away how well it plays...even as stock! Jammed it this evening at 'my other' band and wow what a incredible, well made, simple yet sexy bass.....very happy. Think i may have to try the CV jazz now when i save some pennies. Sadly i was a little dissappointed with a recent VM Squire that i had but the CV seems leagues ahead in terms of of build quality. I'm a Squire CV convert....another to the list.

Shameless plug but i have some Hartke love [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=99838"]HERE[/url] that i'm looking to trade - ideally for a smaller amp such as Markbass/Genz etc. Must admit though i'm a big fan of the Hartke stuff with my first 'proper' amp being the 3500. The LH's are superb in every way too.

Eden WT800A, working but has a fault so going cheap

I've got an Eden WT800A which simply is not getting used since the arrival of my Ampeg. A little bit of history: I bought this amp second hand around 4 years ago ish; some time after i had a problem where both speakers cut out momentarily and then came back on again within a minute or so. The amp came back on and never faultered for some time-at this time i was using 2x4ohm cabs on both channels. Then i used the Eden pretty much every week on the bridged 8ohm output using a 6ohm Warwick cab (this was ok'd by Eden to run a 6ohm cab but no lower)-it ran great and very loud without a hitch. Then i did the Markbass thing 18 months ago for a while and sold the Eden onto another basschatter-the fault reappeared so i refunded him and got the amp back. The amp has cut out on me recently but with a light hit on the top it came back on immediately-maybe something loose-eq overload light came on? Anyhow i did plan to get it serviced and fixed but have never got around to it. Currently it plays fine, i've cranked it up and rehearsed a couple of times with it too 3-4 months ago-no problems. So the issue is intermittent. I haven't really got the money or time to get it serviced at the moment so i am putting it up for sale with the buyer knowing it has these issues. Could run ok without a hitch again or maybe a cheap fix - cheap Eden WT800A!!! I paid alot of money for it 4 years ago but i am asking for £150 + p&p - need the money to get a mountain bike to get fit.

[quote name='longtimefred' post='933162' date='Aug 22 2010, 10:03 PM']just to give you some help on selling. i use one of these with my V4 and it sounds incredible. perfect for me. loads of punch, bottom and top end as well. cant go wrong, great cabs![/quote] +1 - I love them so much i've been using two of them with my SVT Pro 4 (although 1 is definitely enough for most gigs), best 4x10's on the market IMO.
