Soundblox and Ashdown pedals still available

Nothing to do with me! They seem to have sold as well, so I’m a bit confused as to what these are still doing in my house.

Bank holiday bump. I couldn’t help but notice a certain popular bass store selling a pair of these at nearly twice this price! 👀

Not really. Can’t hurt to try but I think I’m set for gear at the moment.

Yes that would be a bit heavy!!! The old lb/kg mixup. Edited.

Unique instrument alert... I don’t know that much about this one! I bought it a few years ago from someone of this parish. My best guess is this was black at some point and someone’s gone and tried to remove the finish. Not sure how the decals fit into this theory, as the effect carries on under the decals. I actually think it looks kind of cool, especially with the cream pickup covers. This plays really well! Would definitely benefit from a set of fresh strings and probably a setup. Weight is 9.2lb per my bathroom scales. Will include a hardcase. Issues: - Neck pocket is not as tight as you would expect on more expensive instruments - the neck is attached with 4 bolts and is stable. - Pickup routes are not the neatest - Probably needs someone to take a look at the wiring. Controls are volume/volume/tone, but requires all three to be at zero before volume is zero. With both volumes off and the tone on full there is a small amount of output. - A few small dents on the back of the neck. - A jack cable stays in the socket, but protrudes a few mm. No impact on the sound. Collection only from Carshalton. Trials welcome. Will drive to meet you for petrol money.

Cheers! Yeah they are brilliant cabs. Already withdrew them once, who knows I may do so again.

Still available...

I had these listed previously and withdrew - now back on the market! Price is firm, and a lot less than I paid for them when I bought them 2nd hand last year. These are very musical and can get very loud - I previously thought they were slightly limited when used one at a time but that turns out to have been an issue with my amp! These can take loads of bottom end and stay clean. Both cabs together is a huge sound. These are the slightly older ones with black baffles, and the carpet is a bit frayed. Weight is around 15kg as per bathroom scales. I can’t post these so collection from Carshalton please, I will drive a reasonable distance for some petrol money. You’re welcome to come and try them out.

Price drop! £300 each for the EXTs, £500 for the MNT.

Cheers! Yes it’s a really great cab, as are the EXTs. I’ll probably end up regretting getting rid as well.

3 Vanderkley 112s for sale. Two are the EXT version (300W @ 8Ω) and one is the MNT version (600W @ 8Ω). EXTs - £350 £300 £275 WITHDRAWN - Classic change of heart. May re-list at some point. MNT - £550 £500 £450 SOLD The MNT is a fantastic standalone cab even when working with drummers and in louder situations, etc. Sounded great on its own in my function band rehearsals, paired with my Markbass LMII. Used with one of the EXTs it becomes a real monster 4Ω rig that goes very loud indeed. I purchased this used last year. It's in great condition. I don't have a cover for this one. Spec from the Vanderkley site: http://www.vanderkleyamp.nl/products/cabinets/112mnt/. I bought the EXTs used last year as well, I think they are a bit older as they have the black baffles (new ones are red). The carpet covering is a bit more frayed on these, apart from that they are in good condition. A single EXT would be a great lightweight solution for jazz, coffeeshop gigs, etc, or as an extension cab to an existing 8Ω rig. When I have used both EXTs together they are a monster rig that can handle everything I've put through them. These are really surprisingly light. I'm not sure mine are exactly as specced out on the Vanderkley site (http://www.vanderkleyamp.nl/products/cabinets/112ext/) as my bathroom scales have the weight at around 15kg instead of the 14kg quoted. I have non-padded Roqsolid covers for both EXTs. All cabs stack neatly either horizontally or vertically. The grooves in the plastic corners "lock" them in place. I'm flexible on what gets purchased in a single go, I'll split the EXTs or sell 1xEXT and the MNT together. Or buy all 3 for a drummer-vapourising 2.67Ω rig!!! (disclaimer - I have not used them in this configuration) Collection from Carshalton (or meet-up for petrol money if it's not too far). Very happy for people to come and try them out. Only selling as I'm not playing that much these days so am cutting back to the bare bones of what I need. As such I'm not really looking for trades, but I might be interested in the right looper pedal.

SOLD I bought this new from GAK in 2005, and have used it extensively. Coupled with a Little Mark II I’ve used it for pub gigs, club gigs, big outdoor gigs, the lot. Has never let me down. It’s the first generation of these, before they went orange. It is in full working condition and sounds great. It’s taken a few knocks over the years which I have done my best to capture in the photos. Basically the carpet is a bit tatty in places and the grill/screws are a bit rusty. In the interests of extremely full disclosure, it had half a speaker cable stuck in one of the jack inputs for a few years. Never bothered me as the other one worked fine. I have since taken it to Guitar Aid in Putney who removed the jack tip, all inputs are now working A+. Can take 800w, 8ohms. Only selling because I’m downsizing my rig and need the space in the house. This is a bulletproof, loud, musical cabinet and I will miss it. Collection only, from Carshalton (South London(ish)). I’ll drive a reasonable distance if needed. Only trades I would be interested in is Vanderkley 112MNT or possibly 210MNT.

PLEASE stop posting killer gear at reasonable prices. Too tempting. Bump for a great seller.

This is a LOT of bass for the price. I have one of these from 2010 also, and it’s just incredible. The easiest playing bass I’ve ever owned. £1400 new even back then, plus your upgrades. GLWTS.

Thanks all! Yes it’s a brilliant cab. I’d keep it but I’ve just acquired some others, in the spirit of one-in-one-out it’s got to go.

That would make sense. I’m not sure what the timelines were, but this cab was second hand in 2012.

SOLD Not sure whether this is Gen 1 or 2, they were manufactured until the launch of Gen 3. Detailed specs: https://barefacedbass.com/product-range/compact This has been my main cab for around 5 years, I bought it off another Basschatter. This cab goes LOUD, and it’s an easy one-hand lift. I can carry a bass, amp, cab and pedalboard in one trip! I’m only selling this because I miss tweeters. Comes with cover, as pictured. Handle seems to be ok, I’ve had no issues with it. There are various small marks and nicks on the exterior. The only potential issue is that one of the feet on the side has come off, and I don’t have it (didn’t notice it happening). The screw seems to have stripped the wood when it came out, so unfortunately it’s not just a case of replacing it exactly where the old one was. Should you wish to replace it there are instructions on the Barefaced website for where to purchase them: https://barefacedbass.com/product-range/T-shirtsandspares.htm Because the original hole is stripped, you would need to screw it in slightly to the side or below where the original hole is. This would only be necessary if you planned to operate the cab horizontally, I’ve never bothered because I’ve always placed the cab vertically. Happy to have you over to try it out, I’m in Carshalton. Collection only I’m afraid, but I’m willing to drive a reasonable distance.

*** ALL GONE *** Bought these a while ago from the US I think, probably in multiple shipments (hence the one set with different packaging). All four sets are unopened, uncut and unplayed. The cardboard boxes are slightly squashed from having sat in a drawer. These are my all-time favourite nickel 4-string set. To me they feel much smoother than other nickel rounds. I’m selling because I am spending more time on 5-strings these days and in any case have moved back to stainless steel strings. £22 each including UK postage.
