    I tried a [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]G5123 today and loved it, thought it was 30inch scale not 32?[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I'd have to run a closer eye over it before I bought one but I didn't see any issues fit and finish wise, I've also tried the Gibson Midtown and loved that but it doesn't have that proper hollowbody vibe (because it isn't it's a hollowed out solid body) I'd certainly be looking at the Gretsch before I buy a Guild Starfire.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]TV pups for the win, they also work beautifully in that Fender Cabronita[/font][/color]

    I bought this at the same time as getting my Ampeg B-15 thinking it would be nice to pad the volume of the B-15 but subsequently I've decided I don't (currently) need anything more than the B-15 I'm not gigging that much and this is just wasted on me at the moment. This is a 1970s model SL100, so 100w Slave amp powered by 4 EL34 valves. Not really a lot to be said about it, run it with another amp to make that amp louder or plug straight into it to get a super clean valve sound or use it as a poweramp for your stand alone pre, lot of options for you inventive lot The amp is in great condition and the only work required on it would be to put the other rear jack back on it. An absolute bargain at £400, I'm based in Manchester and would greatly prefer collection but I can ship if needed and at buyer expense.

    Yes it is and it's a beautiful bass, just having a bit of a clearout.

    Looking to play more, but after 8 years of touring professionally I'm not looking to dep and fill in on stage (well not at the moment) but am available for recording sessions. I have a wide range of gear capable of covering a wide range of genres (full list available on request) Basically looking at getting into what I know is a very tough market, so happy to whore myself about for free to build a name if possible Contact me here via pm or on email at tayste (at) gmail.com

    I did an amp claim through Musicguard recently and they were great no issues in paying what so ever and this was gear that was in a location it wasn't insured in. Re basses, just never let them out of your sight, either leave them on stage and keep an eye on the stage or finish set and pop em in a gigbag and leave gigbag on back.

    Horse for courses, I've never got on with modern cabs, I understand the efficiency and the benefits of the lower weights I've just never found one I'm happy with. I suppose I like a simplistic approach, if you want a B-15 buy a B-15 don't buy a class d with a modern cab and then wonder why you can only get close If you want a big valve amp through an 8x10 sound best thing to buy is a big valve amp and an 8x10. Tonal comparisons are hard as there are so many deciding factors, you will find the Matamp can be way more transparent than the Ampeg, but to me it's always been a case of Goldilocks where Matamp is Ah Just Right sorta thing I've never been able to put my finger on.

    I have a PT Nano you can buy and I'll get it in the post tomorrow

    For the cost I'd go Matamp all the time, I'm currently rocking a 70s Ampeg B-15 whilst I decide what Matamp gear will see me through to the day I die, there is no comparison between the current SVTs and a GT200, same goes for the cabs, alot use very similar designs but they just use better quality materials so my Matamp 8x10 has always sounded bigger and more powerful than any of the Ampeg 8x10s I've used in the past few years. Also whilst still heavy Matamp heads weigh less than SVTs and are louder

    Hi John, I'm afraid I'm not much for Warwicks but I am open to trades for 4 strings. Looking at hollowbody's and decent jazz basses currently
  17. tayste_2000
    No worries, if I didn't already have one of these I'd be buying this. This is by far the best shortscale bass I have played

    Would love this but your fear of the postman and my fear of the south is stopping me

    Having tried a DB750 recently I can't imagine the TH500 getting that powerful of a sound, I would definately look at getting the TH500 and be running them side by side for a while. Remember DB750s are rare second hand for a reason and if you sell it you may never get another chance to own one again.

    I've got it coming in at 7lbs maybe a bit under but that's according to the bathroom scales, it is one of my lightest basses
  21. tayste_2000
    I'd be interested in just the hardcase on it's own

    Musicguard They just this afternoon paid out £3648 on my amps that were stolen which was the full insured value of them. Once I was able to prove ownership the whole claim took 6 working days. I will continue to insure with them and recommend them to anyone looking for gear insurance.
