  1. That looks lovely. I have a fretless SLG from Alan and his work is exemplary
  2. peavey pa system. Peavey XR684F power amp mixer and two Pro 15 passive top speakers. Purchased new by me in 2006 (I think I still have the receipt etc) used as a vocal pa for my band (with backline separate) plenty loud enough for most pubs clubs and small venues not been used for a couple of years but w as pat tested every year when in use. Comes with stands/ speaker speakon to jack leads and the stands etc will even throw in some random XLR and other bits cables I have about Collection can be from me in Leicestershire or my folks are Staffordshire (which is where it is currently in storage) Any questions feel free to ask.
  3. Looks really good Sandberg do some really great basses (sold a longscale California beatsteaks) keep looking at Lionel's glad this has gone from bass direct now although they have a black/tort Lionel pj that's very tempting
  4. Been having a tidy and sort out of my gear but that means I can also have a play with a new setup on the board. Came up with this that I think will work with some extra pedal and switching options. Basics are tuner Big muff in a loop (send/return) so you can blend clean in (makes it useful for bass and cheaper than the ones everyone says work better for low end etc) Chorus and reverb in another loop Octave Looper pedal to try out. Hopefully will get chance to plug it in and give it a good try this week.

  7. I have have owned a few Luither made basses and the quality of Alan's work is outstanding. I'm still getting used to playing a fretless again but I love picking this bass up
  8. I don't need to tell people on here about Alan's work, It's not really a secret that ACG basses are up there with the best but I have realised I haven't mentioned this bass yet. I contacted Alan towards the end of 2022 as I had my 40th approaching in April 2023 and I wanted to treat myself. After far to many emails from myself I settled on a spec that would remind me of some basses I have let go but miss the two most noticeable a fretless sei flamboyant 5string and an Everson fretless 4string. So a plan was hatched build a bass with features I now know suit me the most (passive, Shortscale to name a couple) Full spec. Body core Black Limba Top veneer AI Black ART Maple with black veneer. Back plate Black Limba with black veneer and Set Neck with 5 piece Padauk Wenge woods P/W/P/W/P. Finger board wood AI Mac Ebony with Maple fret lines Radius 30”Side dots Blue Luminlay fretted position. Headstock Black ART Maple with black veneer . Bridge ACG Hipshot 19mm spacing Black Pre-amp Passive Vol/Tone/4 way rotary/3 way toggle switch for any combination. BZ1 bridge pickup PB neck pickup. I have to say Alan was great to deal with the bass is everything I wished for and more (it was even delivered two months earlier than expected) I can fully recommend if you are looking to have a build done. Some of my poor quality photos along with Alan's that show the bass off better.
  9. I didn't think this day would come but I have decided to part with my Guild Starfire I have had a bad couple of months culminating in badly broken ankle so needs must. I am starting to get a bit more mobile now it's been a month since my surgery I would still prefer collection but I'm willing to consider shipping at cost and with the risks fully insured if required. I will still be unable to drive for a while yet so I cannot deliver currently. This is a USA Westerly made Guild from the late 90s not a Newark reissue. These guilds were limited in numbers and I have only seen a handful available for sale. The guild website link states they have gaps in serial number date but Starfire 4 (do not list a Starfire II) in 1996 end at AG000219 and Starfire II start in 1997 at AG300001 so my guess would be late 1996 but I cannot prove this. The bass is in amazing condition just some slight pitting/tarnishing on hardware no dents or big marks just some light scratches and tiny marks (I would say near mint for a 30yesr old bass) most I have seen for sale have damage at the jack socket but not on my bass. It's a semi hollow flame maple body,sides and back with a mahogany/maple/mahogany neck short 30 3/4" scale. Grover tuners, metal saddle bridge and Guild pickups. I will say it's not a light bass but on a wide leather strap is perfectly manageable. Comes with its case one key,hang tag and book. My kettle still works if you want to come try the bass. I'm assuming I have priced this to high so will bring it down to £1900 is the lowest I will go as I would rather keep it it's a really great bass. I would be open to a cheaper short scale bass or medium scale (might consider a Pbass but that would have to be a slim neck) as a part exchange and I would also consider a rick 4001/4003. please get In touch for more details or anything really.
  10. Bass Bros could be an option and it's close to Bass Direct also
  11. Just had James collect a bass off me. Really nice chap very smooth transaction and could have spent most of the day chatting with him even let me try his cab out with my head and another of my basses. Top basschater would recommend 👍
  12. D180 don't see many of them I had a none Eq version at one stage one of those amps I should never have sold.
  13. Used to have a LB30 and recently sold my CTM100 as I cant see me having the need for a powerful valve amp for a while but manged to find a CTM30 at a really good price in a shop so couldn't resist(I have assumed they may be discontinuing them for the CTM30-n2 as I contacted Ashdown and very out of character had no response when I asked about the custom shop listed on the website). Hoping its as good as the LB30 or the CTM100 if its anywhere close I will be more than happy. Just need my small cab to show up now.
  14. Hi should be on the listing Thanks Joe
  15. Yep I had it on basschat before then I tried eBay even had it sold on eBay but no contact from buyer at all so gave up after pestering so I have returned to trying basschat again as seem to have better luck due to the nice folk on here 👍
  16. Custom Zoot Funkmeister 5string. This is a Zoot custom Bass built by Mike Walsh as a 5string active superJ with a solid black finish since my ownership this bass was sent back to be extensively worked on by Mike and turned into the bass as you see it now but again with my band no longer in the frame and me reaching for short scales first this is another on the list of gear to go as it is not getting used. The Bass is now a passive 5 string with Australian Jarra top Tbird custom pickups with V/V/T and push pull pots for coil options on both pickups think mike lull and your close to what this bass can do as it was inspired by my old PT5 but with a 34” scale, 20fret maple neck with 16.5mm spacing,hipshot ultralight tuners in black along with all the hardware and a really dark cherry burst type finish (difficult to picture but has a really nice depth) Weight is 10.3lbs and the nut width is 45mm. Few marks on the back bass has been gigged but in great condition comes with a well used hiscox (Zoot branded outside is near mint but the interior foam has started to come away) hard case. Collection preferred. Any questions feel free to ask open to offers not looking for trades currently. £615 as could do with the space and have a small cab on route.
  17. Having a clear out. Postage included Really useful box can be used as a DI, attenuator to cut the overall volume on stage or so you can drive the amp harder at lower volume or a load box for a 100w 4ohm amp. Hardly used will post for asking price. Everything that makes a real amp rule over all the other alternatives is retained. You can even record silently late at night. Gone is the backache from the loadout, complaints from neighbours, venue staff or even bandmates and the frustration of not being able to sound at one’s best trying to reduce the volume. Torpedo Captor was designed to cover the needs of direct recording or miking any kind of guitar or bass amp, in a live or studio situation. Reactive loadbox: Playing silently or at low volumes is often a requirement, especially at home but more and more on stage or in the studio. To play your amp without a cabinet you need a Loadbox. Two notes is known for the most accurate and feature rich Loadboxes in the world, using the reactive technology, in other words mimicking perfectly the impedance of a speaker. Your amp will absolutely believe it’s connected to a real cabinet. Analog speakersim: When using the Captor on stage to feed a PA, you will need to polish the sound coming from your amp. The analog speaker sim is derived from the acclaimed Le Preamp series. You will be able to get a detailed and focused sound for your monitor or the front of house while keeping a low volume on stage. Add a Torpedo C.A.B. with its large collection of IR Cab Sims for the ultimate direct solution. Format and versions: The Captor is the size of a large DI box, so you can conveniently place it on your pedalboard or on top of your amp. The Captor comes in 4, 8 or 16 Ohm versions (see product options), make sure to get the one that matches with your amp. Attenuator: If you wish to keep a cabinet on stage, the Captor features a direct speaker THRU or ATT output. It allows for full volume or a fixed – 20dB attenuation. Keep your amp in its sweet spot while at manageable volumes.
  18. Great sounding pre for the money Hardly used but has been on the board so velcro attached etc Postage included having a clear out.

  19. Up for sale is my Ashdown Ant. Great Little amp I was using it as a back up to my main amp incase anything went wrong so it has mostly been on my pedalboard and occasionally switched on just to test etc. This is what Ashdown have to say about it. The ANT is a revolutionary pedal-board bass amp that delivers 200 watts of pure Ashdown bass tone into any 8/4 ohm speaker cabinet. Light, super compact and built for the road; fly dates are a breeze and whenever called upon the ANT will give you reliable Ashdown power and tone at every show, eliminating the uncertainty that backline amps can bring. The ANT also automatically adjusts its power requirement from 110v through to 240v so you can simply plug and play no matter what country the next show is in and the ANT will take care of it. Designed for bassists using pedals, modelers and effects processors to create their tone but can also be used totally alone with the 3 band EQ plus shape preset allowing easy tone sculpting. The balanced XLR DI out also allows you to run straight into the PA delivering your tone directly to the sound desk. Lastly the headphone out allows silent practice between gigs. Simply bring your bass and your pedalboard to the next gig for an ultra portable set up! Postage included any questions feel free to ask looking to sell not after trades currently.
  20. Sold Up for sale is my favourite rig. I'm open to offers for a small cab along the lines of a 1x12 or 1x10 but happy to discuss. I will split or sell as a whole as I'm no longer gigging so this is fair to much rig for home use. This is a great amp I purchased in 2021 from PMT and is registered with Ashdown so had most of its 5year limited warranty left. Been gigged a handful of times so is in great condition. The cab is a 4ohm 4x10 rated at 1200watts RMS made by Mike Walsh of Zoot when he used to make amps and cabs (Purple Chilli) it's neodymium drivers so is in the low 20kgs easy to lift on your own dimensions 620mmx660mmx440mm. Please feel free to ask questions your more than welcome to come try it out but due to size/weight and the usual collection would be the best bet for this. Will consider offers on smaller cabs such as 1x10/1x12/2x10
  21. Hi collecting would be best but I can discuss posting as an option if required.
