  1. I started to learn guitar during lockdown, using the Fender online lessons.  I love it and to be honest, my basses aren't getting enough love at the moment.


    I would learn on an electric given the hand issues.  A well setup one will also help on the finger pain / difficultly fretting bar chords.

     

    Enjoy!

  2. An award winning sE22000A Condenser Microphone with case and accesories as pictured.

     

    It was used for a home recording project which has now finished.  

     

    I did notice a slight hum when recording.  This may or may not have been down to the home recording setup, but I will mention for full disclosure.  EDIT: Found the hum, from my USB interface.   Replaced with a new Scarlett, it's perfect.

     

    Price is sent within the UK.

  3. Wilkinson WJB AlNiCo Bass Pickup (Bridge) plus double potentiometer CTS EP4586 Concentric Pot 500K/500K A + BUTTON Knob CHROME.

     

    All unused as I sold my P bass before the planned upgrade.


    Good quality kit, save on the new price.  £30 sent or picked up from East London.  EDIT: £25 now


    Cheers.

  4. Hi Mark, 

    Many thanks for the reply and apologies for the very late response.

    I did purchase a 220v 80VA transformer which was fitted.  I did some further troubleshooting as the output was very low / noisy.  I replaced one of the transistors that tested faulty, but that's as far as I got. 

    It really needs someone with more expertise and a 'scope to diagnose further.  If anyone around the London or Bucks / Beds area fancies looking at a project,  that would be fantastic.

    Cheers.

  5. Hi Chaps, 

    I have an old TR25 solid state amp that I was given, not currently working.    I believe it needs a new transformer at the very least, so starting from there.

    Can anyone help, as my electronics knowledge is pretty patchy and out of date!  

    I was thinking of using a 100VA or 160VA  240v 18v toroidal transformer, which has two 18v outputs on the secondary, so I would run them in series to get the 36v AC the rectifier needs.  Or would I need a 40v output given the rectifier losses?  Rickenbacker tech support have not been helpful.

    There is a circuit diagram here, if anyone could spare the time and sanity check this for me.

    Thanks, 

    Alan.
