Should keep you going for a couple of years at least![/quote] Great call! I've just ordered some, £7.19 for ten. Free delivery.

    I didn't realise it was a year on but strangely enough it was yesterday that it struck me how much I repeat advice that he's given on here.

    He just bought and collected an eden nemesis cab and combo from me ([url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&showtopic=128446&view=findpost&p=1172266"]this one in fact[/url]). Great communication, no hassles, really nice guy. Sell to with absolute confidence of a smooth transaction. Highly recommended

    [quote name='badboy1984' post='1315292' date='Jul 25 2011, 12:05 AM']Free BUMP! This is a bloody bargin ....... if i searching for a small rig i would snap this any day. After going from 2x10 + 1x15 setup to 2x 4x10 i gone back to 2x10 combo + 1x15 for portability. Setup like this usually cover 90% of the gig unless you play in a very very large venue but then you will have PA support, so this rig is well enough to do anything ....... and good price too.[/quote] Cheers for the bump!

    [quote name='HeavyJay' post='1242959' date='May 24 2011, 01:59 PM']Just been to specsavers for a free hearing test after reading what everyone put on here. I've been playing about 15 years, not at excessive volumes but certainly amplified and I've got some moderate hearing damage at higher frequencies. Ordered a pair of the molded ear defenders. The filters are er9 or er15, I can't remember! Since I sing quite a lot in the band as well as play bass, apparently they're good for that. £129 well spent in my opinion. That is if they work![/quote] The ear defenders arrived in a tasteful off white colour. I've tried them at a practice and they take a bit of getting used to but are fine once you use them a bit. I found them a bit sore after wearing them for a couple of hours though. I've got my first gig with them this weekend so I'll report back on how it goes.

    The drummer in the band I'm in picked up a bass at a car boot sale for £6, it's in a bit of a state of disrepair but he thought it looked nice and was maybe going to spray it and hang it on his wall. He asked me for my opinion about it as he thought it used to be quite a good one. I had a look and said I'd post some info and pictures here and get people's opinion as to what it is, how good or bad it is (guitar and parts) and what you'd do with it if it was yours. By that I mean restoration plans, harvest for parts, sell it, sell parts, hang it on a wall or use it for firewood! Anyway, it's a Precision shaped squier with the serial number JV73765. The body has been stripped back to the wood which looks pretty nice, split into maybe 5 or 6 sections. The neck is a light coloured wood, presumably maple, and has been defretted although the gaps haven't been filled. The action is a bit high and intonation seems okay. There aren't any electronics in it except a cloth covered earth wire. The standard routing is pretty nice although some previous owner looks to have attempted to add another pick up right by the neck and opened up the control plate section at the same time. I make the age to be about 1982 (according to wikipedia) but would appreciate any more info. Pictures (rubbish ones!) are below:

    The combo is now under offer and the cabinet is available once again.

    I generally can't help myself, I just dance along to the music like I would do if I was watching. This is what we should all aspire to though: From about 2.50 is awesome.

    I used Interparcel.com to send a bass in a hardcase to a BC user in Holland in June. Collected on a Friday (4th) from the UK, delivered on the Tuesday (8th) to Holland. £55 insured and trackable. Smooth process all round. Twas a Stingray

    I had a semi bad experience with them, I ordered a combo and a cab from them that were supposedly in stock took about 5 or 6 months to come. Apparently they were waiting for a delivery from the continent etc and it was their fault but it was still a pain. They were very nice about it but not terribly helpful.

    [b]NOW SOLD[/b] is a 320w Eden Nemesis RS210 2x10 combo. The full specs for it are here: [url="http://www.eden-electronics.com/products/rsseries/rs210.aspx"]http://www.eden-electronics.com/products/rsseries/rs210.aspx[/url] Price: £400 [b]reduced to £300, firm[/b] Note: The weight in the spec is wrong, it's more like 65lb. Also for sale is a 250w Eden Nemesis N115RS 1x15 cabinet. The full specs for it are here: [url="http://www.eden-electronics.com/products/rsseries/cabs/n115rs.aspx"]http://www.eden-electronics.com/products/r...abs/n115rs.aspx[/url] Price: £150 [b]reduced to £100, firm[/b] [b]Price reduction because I need to get rid of these ASAP, now collection only.[/b] I bought these about two years ago from the Bass Centre and have used them happily since then once or twice a week for practices and gigs and they've never missed a beat for me. The gigs I play tend to be pub and club gigs, weddings and functions and some local festivals which the rig is more than up to (local festivals with PA support but the others without). They're both in good condition, I can't see any noteworthy damage on either, with the exception of a bit of bobbling of the carpet covering on the 1x15 cab. I've tried to show it in the photos but without much success I'm afraid. The reason I'm selling is because I've just taken delivery of a Genz Benz Shuttle 6 and Barefaced Super Twelve to replace it as I wanted something smaller and lighter. These will need to be collected from [url="http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=shipley&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Queensbury,+Shipley,+Bradford,+United+Kingdom&z=12"]Shipley[/url], West Yorkshire. I'd rather sell together but I'm happy to split them, I'm also happy for you to come and inspect or have a play with them. I'll throw in a kettle lead and a footswitch (which I never used) with the combo and a speaker lead with the cab. Pictures: Any questions, let me know.

    When you chaps say "two encores" or "four encores", do you mean two or four extra songs or two or four extra sets?

    Here's a bump for the anticipation of orangeness. By the way, if you email the serial number to [email protected] he'll tell you when the bass came out of the factory if you want it dated. Serial number is on the bridge I think.

    [quote name='gafbass02' post='1034417' date='Nov 23 2010, 08:49 PM']indeed, sound like a ray it wont but sound as much like a ray as a jazz can it probably will lol, and a p bass and a jazz. Which is nice! They are custom orders, all you do is ring and ask for a set of gaffers, i know he was planning to incorporate them into the standard product line but its not happened yet. Possibly due to issues of fitting them in a single coil sized casing. I have the prototype and had to modify the holes myself, but its WELL worth it! Although the 'production' model this seems to be fixed. Give em a whirl![/quote] I enquired about the Gaffers but Andy said they weren't making them until they'd solved some technical issues. The only ones out were prototypes and even though most players were happy with them, Wizard were never completely satisfied. Shame really cos I really wanted some. This was the end of September so things might have changed.
