  1. Hi beedster!

    i've got a studio in Bracknell with a colleague and you are welcome to come and have a look at how its set up, the gear and so on. The studio is used by a lot of local and national acts for anything from demos to proper records. it has got a recording room, a control room, all the gear you can imagine and more. it even has got a very nice metallic red Tokai Jazz Sound from the early 80's.....not sure if you remember but I got the bass from you in a PX long time ago :)

    Please feel free to get in touch if you are in my neck of the woods or just fancy a trip to the country.

  2. [quote name='BigBeatNut' post='922118' date='Aug 11 2010, 10:56 PM']Interested in the VT1.

    Trouble is, it's by reputation only, don't honestly know much about them beyond "warm" and "valve". So a couple of Q's:

    1) What does the 'colour' knob do ? Sounds like tone-shaping, but what, treble roll-off ?

    2) Does it do warm and clean(ish) ? I'm really not looking for distortion, but I've read the 2-knob VT1 does a great 'clean and valvey'.

    3) I've got a feeling this needs a 12V power supply, if so, are you selling one with it ?

    Thanks, Andy[/quote]

    Hi Andy,

    yes it does "cleanish" really well. I have mostly used it a pre amp for recording in my studio to add a bit warmth and ummmph to the tone. it's a fabulous od/dist too, and I really rate it, especially for active basses like my 'Wicks. I love it as it really feels like playing through a propare all valve amp......you can easily control your tone and the growl by your fingers. No power supply I'm afraid, but Maplin's got loads... :)

  4. Hi, having a bit of a clear-out in my studio and have decided to let this go:

    Tascam FW-1884+FE-8 DAW Production Studio Versatile 96kHz/24-bit Firewire Audio/MIDI Interface and Control Surface. 8 mic pres, ADAT, spdif, in total 18 inputs. 16 Motorized faders, complete integration w Cubase/Nuendo and other DAWs. Only light use in smoke free production studio. £450 ONO

    Focusrite OctoPre: Eight pristine class A Focusrite mic pre’s, eight compressor/limiters, and almost all the interface options known to man, OctoPre is the perfect partner for any Digital audio workstation, making high quality, multi-channel recording (eg. Drums, guitars, vocals and synths) easy. £250 ONO

    ADAM P22a Active Studio monitors: tight yet deep bass, high SPL, fast, supple mids, and highs that are sparkly but never harsh. It's a rare speaker that is both musical AND accurate. Usually real "happy" speakers don't reference well, and super-accurate speakers are boring and no fun to work on. £950 ONO

    Please call me on 07919 894 726 for more info and pics.

    Interested in trades for: Suhr/Tom Andersen/Tyler Super-strat of sorts, or a PRS Custom 24.

  5. [quote name='molan' post='670174' date='Nov 30 2009, 05:14 PM']These definitely used to a lot more than £599!

    I think the standard ones were £800 & the red ones another £100 on top.

    Looks like MB must have dropped the list price?[/quote]


    yes. bastards!

    I think I paid £799 or something...can't really remember...or find the receipt! I remember that I got a Markbass T-sh*t for free....black and orange...great for polishing bass guitars :)

  6. [quote name='Netballman' post='670141' date='Nov 30 2009, 04:38 PM']Actually this very link you quote is offering a brand new one for ... er... £599 ! :blush:

    Perhaps this would explain the relative lack of interest if you thought it was £900 new?[/quote]


    oooops.....I think the lprice has changed since I pout the amp up for sale the first time!

    arrghh...what to do....whadday reckon is a realistic market price then?

  7. Hello neighbor!

    Hope all is well.

    Carl

  10. Hi

    I'm selling a MarkBass F1 head. You probably know all about these....very compact and light, great sounding (especially for funk, jazz, blues, pop if you ask me....wouldn't use t for metal), loud, the perfect amp for the bassist on the go!

    Google it for great reviews on the Intra-Web!

    I used it for my function band gigs last year but as I don't play that much bass anymore(only guitar!) its sadly just sitting here so I have decided to sell it.

    I've got pics somewhere so I'll try to upload some at some point.
