Maruszczyk Elwood 5A with J/MM Delanos Price drop to £975
silverfoxnik replied to leschirons's topic in Basses For Sale
Beautiful bass, Keith! I had a play on it last year when I visited you to buy the Roland Bass Cube and it was fabulous 5 string to play; very comfortable and fast neck, excellent range of sounds/ tones and having that passive tone control and option is so helpful if, like me, you prefer that 'old-school' vibe. And on that point, the 'old-violin' finish is even better in the flesh, so to speak.... I know it's a bit of a Basschat cliche to say, but if I didn't have two 5 string basses already, this would be heading my way - especially at this price. 😁 Anyway, Happy New Year to you Keith and best of luck with the sale! 👍😊 Cheers, Nik -

It Was 20 Years Ago Today ... Revisited
silverfoxnik replied to Happy Jack's topic in General Discussion
Great story, Jack, and Happy 20th Bass Birthday ! 🍻🎸🎶🥂 It's almost a 'Happy Jack, Lord of the Strings - or there and back again' kind of epic tale... Just goes to show why - when it gets under your skin - music, playing bass and this place, can become so all-consuming and life changing. Ronaldo says he's going to retire when he gets to a 1000 career goals, but compared to your gigging ambitions Jack, he's clearly a bit of a lightweight!! 😁 -
Merry Christmas Folks!
Hope you have a great day with your nearest and dearest...
🎄🎅☺️🎶

Agree with all the comments above; sad news, especially at Christmas time. RIP 😞 And condolences to his family. IMO, he was very much one of the people, if that's not too trite a thing to say. We used to do this one in our set, which I always enjoyed...

You're very welcome, Andy! Well, there were definitely a few 'Moo-ers' in the Manger all those years ago... So don't be surprised if something magical happens when you plug your bass into the Radar for the first time... 😉😁 Feedback left for you also, btw...

silverfoxnik replied to 40hz's topic in Effects For Sale
I bought one of these earlier this year here on Basschat, and I have to say that I've really been impressed with it! As a preamp, it's great; excellent e.q. with sweepable mids, a very good and blendable drive control, plus the amp/cab models too. I really haven't been able to fault it so far! And I've not even used the cool online features yet.. This YouTube review is pretty helpful, actually... Anyway, best of luck with the sale! 👍😊 -

🎄 Xmas price drop to £75 🎄😊🎅 Hi Folks, Am having a bit of a gear clear out, so up for sale only is this Eden CXC-300 Solo Series FET bass amp, that was taken from a combo of the same name some years before I bought it. It's a properly made, high-quality piece of Eden bass gear from 1999, but I'm only asking £90 ono for it as it needs a bit of TLC... Here's the background as to why. So, I bought this amp on Facebook about 4 years ago, as a bit of a project to be honest. My thinking was that I'd tidy it up a bit and keep it as a back up amp in the car for gigs. But, as often is the case, other more pressing life stuff got in the way, so it's in pretty much the same state as it was when I bought it. So, the good bits about it are that: Hand built in the USA, it has that quintessential, David Eden 90s era sound; full, fat, warm bass tones, comprehensive, 5-band semi-parametric eq, on board compressor and the 'enhance' control knob that makes it so easy to get a fab tone quickly. And it delivers 300 class A/B watts into 4-ohms, that feel properly loud and punchy to me. What's not so good? Well; (a) some of the pots need a good clean, as they're crackly and squeaky (not sure if that's an acceptable industry descriptor?? ), (b) the fan is a bit noisy, so if you're only going to use this for home practicing, then it could do with being replaced. And, (c) as it was once part of a combo, it would really benefit from being housed safely in a decent rack case. That said, I did use this amp on a recording project with a Genz Benz 112 cab a couple of years ago, and it sounded great! Here's a link to what this amp probably looked like when it was part of a combo: https://en.audiofanzine.com/bass-guitar-combo-amp/eden-amplification/cxc-300/ And here's some sales blurb from a Reverb Ad from 5 years ago abiut a CXC-300 210 combo : "This US-made combo from 1999 is a true thump machine that cranks out some huge low end tones with ease! Features include two 10" speakers, a very nice 5-band parametric EQ with 3 sweepable mids (!), enhance control, an effects loop, DI out with independent level control, a stereo pair of 1/4" aux ins, and a very well-built enclosure with top and side handles. Very nice! In solid shape for its age, with normal cosmetic wear and tear throughout. Works as it should. From Eden Amplification: The CXC-300 produces 300 Watts @ 4 Ohms and 175 @ 8 Ohms The discrete preamplifier section, with its enhance control, powerful quasi-parametric tone control system, and gentle autocompression circuit allow you to achieve a wide array of sounds." I've included photos of the head itself, sitting on top of an old Trace Elliot combo, plus some generic pictures from a quick Google search so you can see the head as it once would have been. If anyone's interested and would like to test it out here in Potton, Central Beds, then you'd be more than welcome. Am happy also to do a meet up somewhere within say 30 minutes drive from me.. And although I'd prefer not to post this, it's also an option too if that's absolutely necessary. Any questions, please ask and thanks for looking! Cheers Nik
