  1. Hi,

    I'm selling a collection of old Double Bass strings which have been gathering dust in the drawer.

     

    They are all well used plus and so obviously they won't sound that great. Also  I've labelled them in the pics however,  I'm not 100% sure if they are correct. I'm not sure of the makes except for the single Spirocore.

     

    Some of them have been cut short, so will not fit a regular double bass, they should,  however, fit on an EUB or similar.

     

    If you are interested please check the lengths before committing.

     

    £10 posted.

     

    Many thanks

  2. Behringer B-1

    Large-diaphragm condenser microphone

     

    I've had this mic for a couple of years and it's been great for my home recording projects. Essentially it is a budget microphone but can give great results when set up right. I've used it for bass, vocals and guitars and it has been brilliant.

    I'm selling it as I've now upgraded to a Audio Technica. It works on phantom power, so a mixing desk or audio interface with 48v phantom is needed.

     

    It has a few marks on the body but is still in good condition.

     

    £40 p&p included

     

    Spec

    20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range

    Cardioid

    Roll-off attenuator switch

    Phantom power (48V)

    Robust housing

    10 dB pad switch

    Including case

     

    Many thanks

  3. Celemony Melodyne 5 Essential

     

    CM5.jpg.0259524523c91d7ffa448bde9242be1d.jpg

     

    This is an audio 'plugin'  called Melodyne Essential (the basic version) which is used for pitch and timing correction for vocals and other instruments in a DAW.

     

    I received this piece of software for free when I bought some gear from Thomann. It is regarded as one of the best on the market but unfortunately I don't have any use for it. So, if you have a DAW such as Ableton, Logic Pro, Cubase etc..it might be of some use.  

     

    It will be obtained as a download from the Celemony website and is activated by a license number, which I have, and will be given to whoever buys this plugin.

    It is compatible with PC or Mac.

  6. For sale is my Harley Benton Electric Upright Bass. EUB 500

    I've had it for a few years now and found it very useful when practisisng late at night or early morning. However, I need to purchase some recording equipment so, unfortunately it will have to go.

    Its only ever been used at home and as I said, it is fantastic for practising quietly with headphones or at low volume through an amp.

    It comes with an adjustable bridge, adjustable endpin and is in great condition but does have a few minor bumps and scrapes.

    I've also added a few custom changes to the bass as recommended by other users on the Internet, for example this website is quite useful:  

    http://eub.vanheelsbergen.com/EUB Story.html

    My mods'

    Foam Rubber added to the bridge to stop any nasty sounding harmonics from certain notes.
    Full size Double Bass Bridge (cut down and raised up using shims)
    Pipe Foam added to the support bar( to make it more comfortable)
    New T-shaped endpin (prevents the bass from spinning from your grip)


    Here are some of the main specs:

    Solid spruce top
    Maple back and sides
    Chamfered body
    Maple neck with ebony fingerboard
    Scale approx.: 103 cm
    Height-adjustable maple bridge
    Single tuners
    Active piezo pickup system
    Electronics powered via 9V battery with on/off switch
    Active tone & volume controls
    Headphone output with preamplifier
    Dimensions (W x L x D): 29 x 156 x 24 cm

    Weight: 7.2 kg
    Fingerboard:    Ebony

  7. Fishman BP100 Double Bass pickup

    Pick up is in great condition and comes with spring clips , box, instruction leaflet and foam insert for bridge.

    The pick up is attached to the bridge using the spring clips and the jack socket attaches to the strings below the bridge.

    The original spring clips are missing so I use notebook clips as recommended by Gollihur music.

    Postage included...

  8. Fishman  BP-100 Double Bass Pickup

    £80 including postage.

    For sale is my BP100 double pickup, I have used it for a few years now but it is no longer needed as I now have a Krivo pickup.

    These are quite easy to install/ uninstall using the mounting clips and if set up well can give a classic double bass sound.

    Although not absolutely necessary, I  would recommend a preamp with this pickup to avoid impedance mismatches.

    Comes with the original box, mounting clips etc..

    Blurb from Fishman:

    Our classic bridge-mounted, dual-element piezo-ceramic pickup. The BP-100 installs in minutes and delivers deep sustained pizz tone, and fast articulation with emphasized direct string sound.
