    My Mark Bass LMK for sale.


    The Bad-

    Maybe too loud which has lead to..................

    The Ugly -

    The condition of the amp head is excellent and I have looked really looked after it........... However I used it for a gig with an Epifani UL cab and did not secure it properly. This has lead to some purely cosmetic damage to the base of the unit (scratches in pictures) where the head ended up vibrating across the Epifani handle screw tops.. It does not affect the amp head in any way and it works perfectly.... just scratches on the underside (I was gutted when i discovered it).

    A number of people have contacted me and asked if this is fully working. It works perfectly and has not been dropped or abused. If I were trying to palm it off I would have not bothered to take pictures of the bottom of the head. You can see from the scratches in the paint its where the amp head has vibrated across the two screws that secure an Epifani UL 1 x 12 cab.

    I had the same thing happen to my LM2 and an Epifani UL112.

    2) Poor groove, different to the above. Timekeeping and groove are different.

    3) Bad technique, don't let people tell you that good technique isn't important because it's vital. People who tell you otherwise are lying to you, usually 'cos they can't be bothered to improve their playing. Having good technique enables you to play what you are hearing in your mind.

    4) Not playing for the music. Slapping over ballads etc :).

    5) Not listening to what's happening. Good listening is vital to good playing.[/quote]


    [quote name='Doddy' post='972014' date='Sep 29 2010, 07:33 PM']Let's say a player is chugging along on root note quavers for the whole night. Are they doing it because it is the best
    thing for that gig/band,or is it because they are unbelievably limited and cannot do any more than that?
    I'm not saying everyone has to be super-technical monster players,but a good player will play what is best for the situation,
    whereas a poor one will,and can,only play within their very narrow confines.[/quote]

    What I said :lol:

    Good technique is soooooo important, little things too. I studied very briefly a couple of years ago with US bassist Todd Johnson. I adapted some of his floating thumb technique to my playing with great results. There's nothing worse than 'ringing' low B's :).

  4. This is a few years old, and not one of the new 'true bypass' models, but you'd be struggling to find fault with it's performance.

    It's seen better days cosmetically, there are a couple of minor marks in the paint on the corners , but it works perfectly.

    £65 including UK postage.

  5. This is an amazing pedal, totally noise free and transparent sounding.

    The perfect compressor for people who don't like the way compressors can mess up your sound.

    I only bought this a week ago, unfortunately GAS has struck and I need the cash to buy a new amp/cab. I'm hopefully getting an EBS head, they have a great built in compressor so this will be redundant anyway.

    I'd like £90 please, that includes UK postage.
