Sold this amp today - I just didn't find it quite loud enough. Pub gigs - small to medium, with a decent cab would be fine as long as you like your overdrive. The Orange terror I've just replaced it with is excellent, and sounds extra awesome with a VT bass pedal in front - although still not quite as good as the V4B.

[quote name='PauBass' post='1261442' date='Jun 8 2011, 04:53 PM']Thanks, I didn't know there was someone else form the forum playing The Haunt gig too, I'd have said hello otherwise.... Nice set yours too and that white 5 P bass looks great! Not sure how accurate my bathroom scale is, I've just weighted the bass and it's under 10 pounds a bit lighter than another '78 Jazz I have at home if that helps....I don't find it too heavy to be honest, perhaps Phsycoandy can give us a more exact weight.[/quote] Yeah likewise, only twigged it was you when I saw this ad - really enjoyed your set, great tone out front too. That Precision 5 is beefy as hell, the low B is excellent too. I need to check over my finances and have got to shift my Ampeg v4bh before I can do anything, but I'll get in contact soon. Cheers matey ;D R

What sort of weight is this matey, it's stunning regardless but I'm trying to find a reason not to splash out. Great set at The Haunt on Sunday by the way, loved your tone too. R

sold pending the usual!

I've switched to an Orange terror bass so this is now up for sale. Excellent condition, perfect working order with no issues, boxed and includes a dell laptop case which fits the head perfectly. You all know what these are ;D £350 collected from brighton or + shipping I can be flexible meeting up half way if required. Trades for a nice jazz considered Cheers! Russ

Yeah I did stick it up on ebay for the weekend as I had a free listing credit from them that I wanted to use up. 40 people watching, no bites. R

I'm selling my Ampeg V4BH all valve bass amp. I bought it from doctorbass on the forum a couple of weeks ago, it sounds absolutely stunning but I need more volume for the kind of gigs I'm doing, our drummer is particularly loud and it's not quite got the power I need, the Orange Terror bass I've picked up doesn't sound as good but it's far enough in the right direction for me at the moment. This thing is basically an SVT classic with a smaller power section, so you can crank it for some excellent tube overdrive without being at bowel loosening volume levels - plus it weighs half as much. This particular amp is in Ampeg's 'AV' livery but is otherwise identical to the more common blackface models, it's in great condition and perfect working order. Due to it's weight I'm going to offer it for collection only, although I could possibly meet the buyer somewhere closer. I'm based in Brighton but make regular trips to Rayne/Braintree in Essex. From the serial number, it looks like it was made in 2005 I'm after £450, which is pretty much what I paid for it. I'm interested in trades for a 4 string jazz bass, or possibly a precision - let me know what you've got. Cheers!

pm sent regarding the head

Is this still available? R

Ps, there's a reasonably rough and ready live recording of me playing it here;

I'm dipping my filthy tyre kicking feet into the water on this one and am looking into the possibility of moving on my trusty Lakland Darryl Jones 5. I've owned and gigged it pretty much exclusively over the last 3 and a bit years, but I bought a Fender P5 which just works perfectly for the stuff I'm playing now. I'm using those low low notes less and less nowadays, so am interested to see whether or not I can get by with a 4 stringer on a more permanent basis, something along the lines of the following plus cash where appropriate; 60's/70's reissue/roadworn Fender Jazz or Precision - the mex 50's reissue precision is excellent also. Lakland Joe Osborne 4 Let me know what you've got - I'm pretty open minded this time round. Otherwise I could possibly be coerced into selling at £850 collected/met half way etc- I'm based in Brighton but drive up to the work office near Braintree, Essex on a roughly weekly basis. Bass is in great condition and perfect working order with a beautifully low action - plus it includes a hiscox hard case.

I bought this bass new in July 2007 from Ishibashi, it sounds fantastic and has a growl to it that the Lakland DJ5 I sold this bass for just doesn't possess.

still available - £40 posted

I'll take it, will pm when I get home

Jake: my apologies, managed to miss your pm - have sent you an email

Cheers Mert ;D Barry: I don't believe the weight of these cabs has changed since the newer orange speakers came into the picture. The update from the all black model to the orange speaker model was purely an aesthetic one, although Markbass have further updated this cab by removing one row of ports, the advertised dimensions on their website match my cab so I would have thought the weight would also be the same. Unfortunately, I don't have anything to weigh it, but it's certainly very lightweight and an easy one hand lift. R

### SALE PENDING ### I fancy a change, having picked up a great epifani ul410 I'm now looking to shift my old head and cab and purchase something vaguely valvey. Prices are below, but ideally am after a trade for something along the lines of the following; *Orange AD200B *Orange Bass Terror *Ampeg V4BH *Mesa D180 Markbass Little Mark II Great condition, perfect working order, boxed (I think I still have it) - I'll chuck in an old Dell laptop case which fits the head perfectly if you want it. £350 + shipping - or collected from Brighton Markbass 2x10 cabinet, front ported, neo speakered, 400watt @ 8ohm Loads of bottom end, great with a low B string and as a standalone cab. £325 collected from Brighton I could possibly meet people half way if needed - give me a shout

I've got a Markbass LMII and 102HF cab I'm looking to shift, funnily enough for an AD200B - not sure if this is a straight enough trade though? Give me a shout if this piques your interest ;D R
