Gumtree has sold me some more junk. This time it's an unloved jazz by Aria. However, I'd never had a jazz before, and it seemed to be intact so money changed hands. Just spent an hour cleaning her up, replacing the strings etc. Decided to remove the white pickguard too. Seems to have very light fretwire, almost like a mandolin. Not quite what I'm used to, but playable nevertheless. A ham-fisted setup will happen shortly. If anyone can tell me the origin (China, Korea, Indonesia probably) I'd be obliged. Pictures if anyone insists. Plugged in it is a really nice thing! Great tone and way more character than I expected. Thanks Gumtree!

Nice orange tuner with mute button. Bright leds for dark stages! Unmarked but without box or power supply. Collection from Winchester area or shipping at cost.

Really nice little noisemaker for your budding Zakk Wylde, or indeed a decent practice amp for any purpose. A pal actually had this mic'd up on his wedding day! It has a proper Marshall sound, plus digital effects on board and speaker emulation for the headphone port. There is also a handy line-in. Reasonable offers considered. Location is Winchester.

Just picked this up as part of a gumtree special. It works fine, weighs very little and has 2 inputs and a headphone output. Reasonable offers welcome. Location is Winchester.[attachment=253984:IMG_2947.jpg]

Presume you've seen this one Kevin? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/305325-markbass-cl106/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/305325-markbass-cl106/[/url] Nearly half the weight of the Ashdown equiv.

[quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1503313451' post='3357047'] It might be for you - but I've had 4 hernia repairs! [/quote] Sounds like Lozz has the solution for you with his castors! Where do we buy those Lozz?

[quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1503309304' post='3356998'] Thank you. a 6x10 is really too much for me, but the tilt back would make it easier to move than a 4x10 [/quote] My bf four10 is a one-hand lift..... but a six10 would "look" cooler.

Update.... I agreed a partial refund with the buyer and he kept the guitar for spares/repair. Probably a better deal for him considering the hard case. I felt ok about that but two weeks later I still don't have a refund from the courier (parcel2go).

Great input so far, cheers. In my head the noise comes from the floor. Is that correct? Either way, noise in the room can be absorbed (not reflected) at the walls and ceiling, or is that a fallacy?

Hey all. Looking for some advice on acoustic damping for my shed. I have a very nice log cabin in my garden which has been used as a rehearsal room, ofice, movie room, general man cave etc. By and large it's well insulated for sound and heat, but we have a motorway not 20 feet away and the main noise which comes into the room is seriously low frequency, i.e. Ground transferred vehicle noise. I'm wondering if an investment in bass traps would pay off? If so, what to buy and where to install for maximum effect?? Any and all advice gratefully received.
-
Thanks both. It is an Epiphone and a lefty so I was ok with that price. Not sure that shipping it back to repair and resell will add up though. Although I charged £20 it cost me £27 plus packaging to ship.

Hi. Looking for a little advice. I knew I'd regret deciding to sell my guitar on eBay. Having seen it go for £171 plus £20 shipping, I packed it up in the hard case where it's spent virtually it's whole life, then packaged that and sent it. Unfortunately the buyer sent me a photo just now of the poor thing. Neck snapped at the headstock. I feel pretty sick. I imagine this happens a bit, couriers not having a great reputation. I think the maximum insurance value is only £100 though. What do I do now? Does he keep it to repair, do I refund him, what if I don't get the £100, what about eBay??? All advice gratefully received. Jim

£300 anyone?

Mmmmm. I have GAS for one of these now.

Just a feeler really. Due to ongoing financial difficulty I may have to flog everything. Hence my treasured Warwick may be available until I win the lottery / get a better job / strike oil. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=227618"]http://basschat.co.u...ttach_id=227618[/url] I will post better pictures as soon as possible. Black 5-string lefty Warwick Rockbass Vampyre bolt-on. Great condition and little used (un-gigged by me). Active pups. Warwick strap locks. Original Chrome knobs or black ones. Optional hard case at extra cost. As far as I can tell these are still £700 on thomann. Collect from Winchester.

Really nice red sunburst LP, original hardware and hard case. Plays brilliantly and sounds as good as any LP I've heard. This is a proper one with a set neck and Grover tuners, not a nasty "special" job. Collection from winchester or delivery for fuel money, no shipping. Offers considered. Selling due to hardship and little use!

Hands down the best voice I've ever heard.

For me, the best live vocal performance I've witnessed is Skin of Skunk Anansie. Triffic bass player (Cass Lewis) is obviously a bonus. https://youtu.be/xEp8yJPjedU -
What is the best dark sounding P pickup ?

I love my Geezer Butler signature EMGs. It doesn't get any darker than Sabbath! -
