    It is a monster and built like a tank I won’t be disappointed if it doesn’t sell to be honest 😢.

    No offers below the asking price As new Harley Benton Precision bass. Mint. Set up and frets dressed , polished etc by Polmac luthier In Youghal, Cork. Plays like a dream , traditional big fat pbass neck , satin finish . Basswood body, maple neck . I realize they retail for £90 ish + shipping on Thomann, but this has had another £30 spent getting the frets decent (were a bit sharp out of the box) no horror stories under the scratch-plate either, finish is continuous. Pickup is decent and has powerful thumpy output . This bass is fantastic for the money and gig ready for any level of player. Surplus to requirement for me. Will include a padded Stagg. gigbag. Small blemish on pick guard

    The Bugera with the 3 valve preamp was one I would consider 🤔

    I bought that spyder from Merton a couple of months ago and I have the ctm100. What I really need is a gigbag class D backup like an elf or something similar

    Yeah , I think I’m mad? But it’s been sitting idle for too long. It’s needs loud gigs !

    As new but set up and frets dressed polished by Local luthier. Sounds amazing and generally unbelievable value for money. I realize I’m asking Thomann prices but I included shipping , the frets have been smoothed out (they were sharp out of the box) . I include a stagg reasonable quality padded gig-bag. There seems to be a small blemish on the pick guard but it’s barley noticeable . No horror stories under the pick guard either . Finish is continuous

    Very reluctantly I’m selling this top class British made Green Monster. I just have too many old school heavy valve / mosfet heads and while I love them I need to thin the herd as I’m playing far fewer big gigs . So .. 500w 7 band EQ with compression and mid scoop EQ preamp setting . Foot switch included . Shipping to UK will cost extra but probably not a huge amount. It’s true what they say about trace watts btw. This thing is savage !!

    I tried one on my bass and it didn’t work either .

    Was is a regular guitar one ? I’m not sure they work with bass

    I wanted to buy a hands free mike , earpiece thingy . The music store owner kindly put my off the idea and recommended just getting use to using a normal sm58 type mike and get a decent stand . I’m glad he did .

    Boss do a synth bass pedal that a guitarist friend of mine bought but couldn’t get any use out of. He lend it to me...for tye life of me I couldn’t get a discernible note out if it . Boss usually do pretty good pedals but this thing was garbage 🗑

    I hate these things when they get old and won’t pop out , come to think of it, who thought these were a great idea that HAD to be invented. My other bass had the plain button , guess what, that bass never fell off me. It’s just one thing I think is a superfluous gimmick . But there are many more . What’s your item you were suckered into buying and realized you had no need/use for .

    I asked one of my Polish colleagues in work to translate the page for me 😂

    I think they’re shipped directly from Poland to your house but if you go on their website they may have a list of Uk distributors . The amps are quite reasonably priced ...for what they are

    I had an old Carslbro 50 top amp that had a pair of el34s. Maybe it was another component in that amp . But it sounded divine when pushed hard. It was. Guitar head but sounded super With bass

    Aesthetically I prefer the old school look of the ctm100
  17. Quilly
    Don’t worry , Poland 🇵🇱, next country heading for the door by all accounts 🤣 seriously though if it’s the WB100 you’re after they’re seriously cool looking amps . They use 6L6 valves , I winder are They interchangeable with EL34s 🤔

    Handbox?

    Don't do it !

    Pondering on whether I should move mine on also. I have too many amps and none of them light weight unfortunately. I very hesitant on selling off one of the last British Made Traces. I opened it once and had a look inside. Im no electronics expert but everything in there looks 'heavy gauge' , like it was build with heavy use (and abuse) in mind. Every time I used in rehearsal or gigs it always seemed to impress. It just seems to move a lot of air! .

    That's crazy...bet it sounds awesome 😥

    To be fair basschat is a bit of a sausage fest 🙄

    No Minefield really. This is all just my opinion but a 500W solid state head is really max you need, probably lower wattage for Valve heads. As long as your cab is rated to about 1.5 times the power of your amp or more and the impedance is matched you should be flying. I know people crib about the weight of them but I prefer a good bit of weight in a head, hence I tend to prefer ones with AB MOSFET over Class D. I just think they're less prone to problems from vibrations etc. Oh and if you get one with a valve preamp, these are nice. My personal favourite is Ashdown hybrid into Barefaced.

    I don't feel too bad about it. I think the important thing is to have what you need to get the sound you're after, plus I cleared out some stuff I wasn't using...which was nice. To go off the point a little, I still think buying spanking new items on a whim is really a waste of money and resources and I wont be doing it anymore. You'd want to be mad to go out buying, say, a brand new Fender bass or SVT for example when they appear almost everyday for sale on this site and others, unused and at worst case in need of light servicing (which is part of the fun IMO). And you know....Mother earth is heating and all that stuff.

    After all my pontificating, I’m out . Bought a reverb pedal last night but in my defense it was something I was looking for for a while and it’s a used item. I definitely think I’ll only buy used items from now on as far as possible. Thanks to this site and countless buy and sell Facebook pages I’ve come to realize the world is awash with impulse purchases. So I might be out of this group but at least I’m putting an unused item to good use .
