  1. Hi, am seriously considering this amp, as I need a replacement portable head after my Ibanez Promethean blew up recently. Is everything functioning ok, and if so, any particular reason why you want to sell it?! Colin (Southampton)
  2. I hear what you say about getting a professional on the job; couldn't agree more. Thus far, I've contacted 2 reputable techs in my area (Southampton). One says he's semi-retired and booked-up for 3 months; the other hasn't bothered to respond.
  3. My thanks to all the above. Machinehead, I'm not too bothered about cost or affecting the value, as I won't be parting with this beauty! An SD does seem like a good option. Pfretrock, don't know about the wiring mode, but point noted; ta. Musicbassman, I have an '86 Squier Jazz, now with American Standard Fender pickups, and it's pretty damn good. For the Tele, all I need is a bit more top, and a Jazz p/u could well provide that. Chris b, I don't want to replace the humbucker, as the sound is so huge. Also most other (smaller) pickups would leave a gap...! I actually nearly traded this bass for a Bass Centre Profile, last week, but drew back, and realise now that [sigh] I could never let it go.
  4. I have a Squier tele bass, which is long on excellent thud, but short on tone. I'd like to get a 2nd pickup fitted, between its humbucker and the bridge. Has anyone done this, or similar with another bass? Any thoughts/advice welcome.
  5. Hi Pete, Apologies for delay in responding! That's a fair price. Another Basschat chap kindly sent me a pair of old Jazz pickups, but they don't quite fit my Squier: at 19mm across, they're too wide. They're also both of equal length. Please check the dimensions of those you have: they need to be 17mm across; 9.0 and 9.3 cm in length. If so, please let me know, at [email protected]. Incidentally, could you be interested in a pair of DiMarzio Jazz PUs, valued at the equivalent £40, as a deal? Colin

  8. Hi GNU, I know your pain, mate. After 24 years(!), I got back a bass nicked from my car in '91. The scumbags will only want to flog it on, and either have or are lying low for a bit. Circulate the serial numbers! (I'm assuming you'd made a note of them...?)
  9. Yes, bought back from latest custodian on April 2! Have tried posting an image of it to thread. ColinH

  13. I'm on my 3rd Trace amp now, having had other stuff in-between-years. Managed to get the last AH600 head going at Bass Centre in Bagshot. A tad heavy, but insanely powerful. I disagree with Mr 40Hz: the [Mid] Pre-Shape is a superb feature, getting rid of honkiness, and you can build on it with the EQ.
