  1. How does it play? I was toying with contacting him about a build, but just don’t know the brand or reputation, I assume just due to low volumes.
  2. Wow, that’s impressive! I am planning on double layer box and bubble wrap…..
  3. Fantastic advice, I’m useless at keeping boxes!
  4. Not sure if this is the right forum, but has anyone posted cabs or amps they’ve sold? I was after guidance on safely packaging for example my NY121 or CMD121 to send to buyers. I’m concerned about making sure they arrive safely!
  5. Selling my 121 cab as I don’t get to use it anymore. Lightly gigged, but I can’t see any marks at all and works perfectly. Comes with Roqsolid cover. I’m selling my CMD 121 combo as well, will accept an offer for the 2.
  6. Selling my 121P as I just don’t get to use it anymore. Lightly gigged: a couple of small marks on the amp fascia and one corner, see photos, otherwise perfect, and no issues in performance. No marks, tears or pilling on the cover. Comes with a Roqsolid cover. Selling extension cab as well, see separate ad, I’d take an offer for the 2
  7. Thanks, really pleased with it. The colour I asked for was Lake Placid Blue metallic , I think this is actually a bit bluer and sparklier than that, but I think actually better than I had planned 😀. I asked for the VVT controls as they work so well on my AP Mustang: as you say Viv’s default is VT plus selecter. Would love to see a picture of the one you went for: as you say they are superb
  8. Went down to Camden at the weekend and collected my Wilcock Mullarkey. Viv’s been building it since May and it’s been worth the wait. A beautiful looking and sounding guitar. Instantly my favourite!
  9. Thanks everyone for all your advice, invaluable as always!
  10. Can I pick the brains of our resident techs? My Markbass CMD121P is making the occasional crackle when turning the master volume or gain knobs; I assume there could be some dirt built up in there somewhere? Any tips on how best to cure the problem? Cheers
  11. Same here, I’ve found the tone works really well across multiple genres. I switched from a Jazz to a 4003 to the Mustang and haven’t looked back, plus so easy to get through a long gig (when they return) without your hand cramping up! I have a MIM PJ, which sounds great, but also my fave is my AP which can deliver a real range of sounds.
  12. Quick update, Tanglewood arrived, initial impressions good, flats on order, so we’ll see how it sounds once they’re here. Thanks for all the advice!
  13. Thanks, v useful to know, I’ve actually just pulled the trigger on a used Tanglewood, hoping that as it’s not new the set up should be OK
  14. Quick update, I just went for it on the Tanglwood, due to arrive Tuesday. Merry Christmas to me!
  15. Ah, right, I see Höfner sell their own branded so I guess those are a good bet. I didn’t know about Tanglewood doing one, I found one used online for similar price to the Aria, thinking it could be well worth a punt!
  16. I wondered about these as they’re so cheap: any view on comparative quality, as the Höfner, etc are double the price?
  17. Thanks, v useful and I did wonder about the Aria as a good toe in the water. Out of interest, have you found all violin basses to have the smaller tuners, or just the Höfners? Thanks!
  18. I’m sure this has prob been asked before, but anyway: I’m looking to get a violin bass. Obvious candidate is a Höfner Ignition, but I’m also wondering if anyone’s had experience of other similar priced options, in particular Vintage as I think they have a good reputation as a budget brand. Any feedback on the best option appreciated, I want a full hollow body rather than with centre block, so that will cut down options I know.....
