Hello, after much consideration I have decided to let my beloved Sandberg 4 go. It's 1 year old, in great nick (no dings or scratches), no fret wear. I have played it a lot but looked after it well and it could be taken for a new bass. It comes with a Sandberg gig-bag and a set of new strings of your choice! Short facts: Sandberg California PM 4, Alder Body, Maple Neck & Rosewood Fret board , Scale 34" , Chrome Hardware, mint Pickguard, 1 x Delano P-Style 1 x Delano Powerhumbucker, Sandberg 2 Band EQ with passiv Tone control, Activ-Passive switchable the bass is very flexible and you can dial in anything from a P-bass tone to a MM tone and very unique and wicked slap tone. It can be very aggressive sounding and cuts through most mixes. Read more about the bass here: [url="http://www.sandberg-guitars.de/"]http://www.sandberg-guitars.de/[/url] there are several really good reviews under the press clippings section. Price: Thomann asks £772 plus shipping VAT etc Bass centre: £789.00 My price: £500 (fair innit!) I take paypal, money transfer or cash on delivery and can organise shipping to anywhere in the UK or EU (at your expense... …) I will organise some images later but here is a first pic....just to tempt you! Reason for the sale: Got the same but a 5 string custom that I play more often and as they sound very similar I have decided to let go of the 4 string. Any Q's just PM me or call me (POM me for my number) Cheers! Carl PS, oh forgot to mention that I'm open for trades...as ususal! Stuff I would be interested in: - Fretless (stingy, pbass....warwick.....ehhhh...) - 6 string - Eden Traveller 550b plus cabs - A really good 4x10 (Eden, EA, Aguliar, Accugroove) - ehhhh.....surprise me!

yeah I agree. pros: great staff and mostly a very nice crowd. cons; you can't use your own amp as the change overs are so quick... ...and I'm not overly impressed by the markbass combos... anyway, looking forward to the gig!

Hi, Check out Mirva at the Bedford tomorrow - nu-jazz/folk with nordic heritage. Let me know if you are there - it would be great to meet any basschatters in the flesh! Carl

Hi, I'm selling/trading a very nice Martin OM28V. the guitar is 5 years old and has been used in studio only. It's a small body guitar a'la Martin Eric Clapton but with much more mojo. Records very well. I'm asking £1,700 and I would be interested in a nice (4/5/6 string bass plus money my way. Pic's avaliable on requests.

[quote name='ped' post='32750' date='Jul 16 2007, 10:12 PM']I am going to try one of these out this week - looks quite promising. I had a good play with the m500 head and a large cab at the last bash owned by wots-his-face, it sounded great top end wise (got the perfect sound, due to the eq being able to go to 8khz plus) but the bottom end needed some tweaking, but I didn't have the time or the ability to crank it and see. Cheers ped[/quote] Hi Ped, I'm in Henley not far away from you and you are welcome to try mine if you like. cheers, carl

You can't compare a 2x5" practice amp with a glocken rigg!!! I personally didn't like the Suitcase but the Flightcase really ticked many of my boxes when looking for something sgreat sounding, small, portable and light for small jazz, acoustic and electric gigs. Maybe one reason why I like tha sound is that it reminds me of my larger EA setups...very clean *but pounchy) sounding....they really makes my basses justice by not colouring the sound. Oh - I bought it from Guitarworks in Reading...great shop btw.

Wicked! Exactly what I've been looking for! Thx! [quote name='owen' post='11422' date='Jun 3 2007, 02:51 PM']Here is the case. It is an Explorer 13513 and I got it from Denny Diving for £230 ish inc shipping [url="http://www.divingdirectshop.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=888&osCsid=a3779ca879806ca5b92a658e56bf9e5f"]http://www.divingdirectshop.co.uk/product_...92a658e56bf9e5f[/url] It includes foam which I really butchered when I cut it. I must learn to be more patient. I will have to cover it with velvet one day. The case will not take an Undercover NS gig bag with no foam in it. I guess it would take the rubbish gig bag that comes with the NS. [attachment=415:DSCN3132.JPG] [attachment=414:DSCN3131.JPG][/quote]

warwick thumb 5er...loved the sound of it but could never find a comfy playing position and in the end my right arm started to hurt! jazz....I love the sound but find the neck way to narrow at the nut. I recenty bought a MM jazz that I had to sell after a couple of months. this must be the 5th jazz I have owned over the years jsut to realize it just doenst work..... rickenbackers....love the sound looks of them but they are completley unplayable (to me)

Hi I really love my EA CXL 112's...very punchy, nice bottom end and can take a lot of punishment. One is normally enough (function gigs etc), but I always user two on larger gigs. did I say that they are very light?..

Whats the most reliable (heavy duty) bass amp
carlosfandango replied to Timface's topic in Amps and Cabs
i agree the aguliar 750 is a great amp..... works really well with schroeder cabs as well....*seems to be jorg's favourite amp btw). paired with a schro 21012....no lack of bottom end there! ampeg SVT 4Pro is also a VERY loud and great sounding amp IMHO...I used one with a schro 410 for really large outdoor gigs and never ran out of juice (monobridged in 1600w!). c -
Hello Just picked up my new PJB Flightcase - what a great little amp! I have tried it with a not very loud function band and on a couple of jazz/acoustic gigs and as long as the volumes are moderate it sounds really good. I had no problem keeping up with a drummer and guitarist in a quite large marquee...that was pushing it a bit though as I had to run it on "9" all night.......sounded absolutely fine through PA though. My EUB has never sounded better, in fact I was thinking of getting rid of it and go DB all the way but with this combo I have a really portable solution for jazz and acoustic gigs. + it's very light! it's very light! it's very light! sounds great with 4 and 5 string electrics, EUB and acoustic bass. low b no probs! very punchy sound for it's size. great sound on stage as two of the speakers are pointing upwards....perfect for small stages, no more playing to my knees very musical eq nice optical compressor - no mute switch a stereo input would be nice for playing along to cd/mp players at home wish list: an active 150w extension cab would be great! Total score: 8/10 low B's worth giving a try! carl
