  2. Dear Basschatters, I have just seen this bass and the logo on the headstock looks familiar but can't work out hwere I've seen it before! Any clues from anyone on age and model? The body doesn't look original and the neck has had one of the tuners changed but any help with identification would be amazing! All the best, Sam
  3. Dear Basschatters, Does anyone have any idea what might have happened here? Looks like an epoxy/glue finish gone wrong/water damage maybe? I can’t tell if it’s damaged the neck or the wood. It looks more extreme than just nitro cracking. Any help/ideas would be hugely helpful! Thanks in advance! Sam

  5. Line 6 HX Stomp for sale in brand new condition. Only been taken out of the box to test as I already have one and this one was for a spare. Comes in box with all packaging and accessories as well as screen protector still on! Incredible piece of gear for amateurs and pros alike! My main one never leaves my board! I use it on bass mainly but sounds brilliant on bass, guitar, keyboards and anything you put through it. Everything from effects to amp-sims to full parallel processing. Based in Bedfordshire but happy to post. Any questions please ask. Sam
  6. Hi all, Does anyone know where I can buy R Cocco strings in the UK? They are my favourites but having a tough time tracking them down in the UK! Any help would be hugely appreciated! Best wishes, Sam
  7. Hey folks, I am looking to buy a 70s Fender Jazz but the neck is confusing me - it seems 100% legit and the serial matches up but the truss rod adjustment and headstock patch (where truss rod adjustment usually is) seems more like on a Precision bass from the era rather than a Jazz bass - any help would be really appreciated! All the best, Sam
  8. Thank you for all of your help folks! I haven’t used it loads recently but cleaning the jack inputs (including effects loop) seems to have done the trick! Thank you all so much! I’ll let you know if I run into any more issues. all the best, sam
  9. I own an Aguilar TH500 amplifier and quite a few times recently when I have used the amp, I have turned the amp on and upon playing the sound is extremely low volume and really badly distorted unless I really dig in and then the sound pops out and crackles making the amp totally unusable. On one occasion I was able to get a normal sound after pressing the operate button quite a few times and apart from that I have to turn the amp off and hope that when it turns back on it has gone, although it usually stays and I have to use a different amp. I took the lid off recently and cleaned the dust out very gently with a microfibre cloth and used a little bit off contact cleaner in the obvious places to see if this helped (I have lots of experience with amplifiers and electronics) but the issue still exists. Any help would be hugely appreciated! Best wishes, Sam

  11. For sale is my lovely German 3/4 bass. I have owned this for 10 years and in that time it has served me very well playing everything from classical to jazz etc. It has had extensive work done to it whilst I've had it, including having the front off about 5 years ago by Laurence Dixon (Bass Place). He repaired a crack in the shoulder, added a new bass bar, improved any previous work as well as adding a new sound post, shaping the bridge, planing the fingerboard and giving the bass a setup. It has a set of Tomastik Bel Canto strings on it that have been used but still have life left in them. This bass got me into conservatoire and I played it for the first two years of my study before I decided I needed a change. It is very comfortable to play, with a warm, even tone. It is quite a light bass, so very comfortable to transport too. The bass is currently located near Bedfordshire but I can bring it to London too if needed. Please feel free to ask any questions. Many thanks, Sam
