I bought a lovely Retrovibe 'tribute to a well known brand' from Paul at the weekend. Easy transaction followed by a Basschat classic supermarket carpark exchange! Really nice guy to talk to and a lovely bass to boot. Exactly what buying & selling via the forum should be like 👍

TC Electronic RH450 with RC4 Footswitch. -£200 - *SOLD*
b7l4s replied to alinbassplayer's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
If this had been a year ago I'd have snapped these all up in a heartbeat! But typically, when I was looking for an RH750 - with footswitch - they just didn't seem to be about, and of course more recently I've seen a couple up for grabs. I ended up going a different way in the end, but someone is going to get a bargain here! GLWTS- 2 replies

Finished a pub gig with a heavy rock type band - landlord has rung the bell and is trying to get people to drink up. It's at that moment a drunk older couple asked (and asked, and asked with increasing mouth foam) to hear My Way, as if that's likely. Bearing in mind that we've switched everything off and started taking stuff out to the van etc. it's a weary but firm 'no' from whoever happens to be their focus at that moment. They persist however until another punter wanders up and tells them to p*ss off, to which they don't take kindly, and before you know it proper fisticuffs are going down, ending with the landlord throwing all three of them out and barring them. We just loaded up fast, got paid and got out of there... still got asked to go back (but didn't)!

No - it's gone... nothing in the wayback machine either. Curious

Apologies if this is old news, but I just happened across this... https://www.fender.com/en-US/electric-basses/precision-bass/aerodyne-special-precision-bass/0252402376.html I think it's kind of cool... sadly though it appears to be US only, at least right now

Following - I think you might have hit upon what is missing from Fender's design (especially the neck/headstock) with your plan...

It's funny really, I got hold of those cabs and that head just as I (re)started gigging after a very long layoff, and although I've tried quite a few different things over the subsequent years on the quest for 'something', I have always returned to them as they are just right for what I need... They make a sound I like, always have enough heft and are manageable enough to cart around to gigs and practices etc. I can't think of anything I'd replace my TE head with either, and it does fit nicely on top of the cabs - it might be 2cm wider than an Ashdown MAG, but it doesn't look wrong at all.
-
That's very nice - does almost look new. I'm still getting 100% reliable use out of the SMX250 I got from you @Deedee and it works a treat with the pair of 1x12's I bought from you @Sparky Mark... small world init!

I just bought a MIJ reissue P-bass from Bassbros. Outstanding and responsive customer service from Will, who answered my questions, provided the extra pictures I asked for and accommodated my shipping request... and when it arrived, nicely set up, the packaging was bombproof (or at least courierproof)! It was all very confidence inspiring and I am one happy bunny.

Claimed to be a genuine Warwick accessory, which it might well be - possibly originally built for shops or trade shows maybe? Warwick bass headstock... mirror

Please Help!!!! Trace Elliot GP12 SMX 300 cutting out!
b7l4s replied to Phil_bassman's topic in Repairs and Technical
Good shout to look carefully at the multi pin connectors if your amp has them - they are not the best solution to connecting boards in an environment which will likely experience a lot of vibration... -

Late to the party I know, but I've also experienced the effect loop tarnishing issue on both TE and Laney amps, presumably because they are unused for years by some owners (including me). But posting because I'm sure I've also read that the pre-shape and graphic in/out switches on some models of TE amp could be problematic, and that replacing them had been known to resolve some intermittent issues... Could be useful info for someone. -
