  1. Only just seen this thread, but very happy to support it! Now - I just need to find something to sell...
  2. Good question Pete; that was on my mind too.. The Nanobass seems like a great unit, but I'm not quite sure how to use it, other than in a home studio set-up for example. But if it could be triggered by a B2M, that would be fantastic!
  3. Hi Folks I recently sold my Jolana short-scale bass to Dr Phibes, a.k.a. Rich.. Transaction went really well; fast payment and good communications throughout. So, I'm very happy to recommend Rich to one and all here on Basschat.. Nik
  4. Great looking bass! Good luck with the trade/sale...
  5. I had one of these about 5 years ago.. Because i was using my Roscoe Beck 5 so much at the time, i ended up trading it for a Sandberg 5 string, but it was a really good bass. It played really well and sounded good for almost any style of music - a proper workhorse of a bass! Good price; well worth a punt so have a BUMP on me.
  6. Owen just bought my TC electronics pre-amp.. as stated above, super-quick payment ! he's as ever, a pleasure to deal with.. I have been dealing with Owen here on BC for a number of years and as I've probably said somewhere else before, it's meeting and dealing with fellow bass-players and musicians like Owen here on the Forum that make this place so fantastic.
  7. Hi Folks Just bought an EBS pedal from TokaiBassMan, a.k.a. Sean and everything went really smoothly with the transaction... Pedal's really cool too! So, am very happy to recommend Sean to one and all here on Basschat.. Nik
  8. BUMP for new price, which is £125 or near offer...
  9. Item SOLD pending the usual...
  10. Item now SOLD - thanks for looking! Hi Folks I have this very cool looking [b]'Jolana Diamant Bas[/b]' for sale and am looking for [b]£125[/b] o.n.o plus p&p. Here are some pics which are a bit blurred.. I'll try and do some better ones tomorrow! [attachment=127338:IMG03733-20121118-1405.jpg] [attachment=127339:IMG03734-20121118-1405.jpg] [attachment=127340:IMG03735-20121118-1405.jpg] [attachment=127341:IMG03736-20121118-1405.jpg] I bought it a year ago from dangerboy in order to indulge my 'Carol Kaye short-scale, flat-wound 60s bass' fantasy, but to be honest, it hasn't quite worked out as I'd planned as I'm using my BC Rich Eagle more and more these days! Anyway, when i got it, I had it strung with some La Bella short scale flats and got my local luthier (Graham Wheeler) to set it up properly. As can be seen in the photos, the red string wrapping extends over the nut into the first fret area, but it doesn't affect anything and has never bothered me when using it.. So it plays pretty nicely and everything works fine. The sound is good actually; neck pick up is very deep and warm - perfect for that Motown vibe - and the bridge pick up adds a little more edge to the sound. A combination of the two is quite 'Ricky' sounding surprisingly.. The output is very high by the way - it's as loud as the output from the Di Marzios on my BC Rich, and that's saying something! You can see dangerboy's original for sale thread here, which has a You Tube link on it: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/160728-jolana-diamant-les-paul-shape-80s-shortscale-from-czech/"]http://basschat.co.u...ale-from-czech/[/url] Condition is quite good cosmetically and as I say, it looks very cool IMO... There's no case but I can ship it in a gig bag and will ensure it is very well packaged up! Alternatively, if you're near enough, please come and give it a try for yourself! Any questions, please ask away here or PM me. Thanks for looking, Nik
  11. Hi Folks Item now SOLD and Basschat donation made Thanks for looking.. Nik
  12. Lovely! Good luck with the sale Ady.. Nik
  13. +1 I've heard this amp in action and it's a really nice piece of kit.. And Jon's a great guy to deal with too!
  14. [quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1359648898' post='1958221'] I used to have the 4 string version of this, years ago. I really wish I hadn't sold it! These are excellent basses, and very underrated. [/quote] +1 I had the five string version and it was a very good bass.. This one looks excellent - especially with the upgrades!
  15. [quote name='lownote12' timestamp='1359551897' post='1956447'] This is gorgeous, I'm in love. You have done such a good job. And at that price it's a steal. Sadly I've no money too - so I'm out (but still in love) [/quote] +1 Looks fantastic!
  16. Great piece of kit - I love mine.. Not for the faint-hearted, as it's not the lightest of amps, but the trade-off is that it sounds fantastic ! Have a BUMP on me and good luck with the sale....
  17. My personal favourite model and finish of all the Wal basses! Unique design features and a very distinctive tone... Good luck with the sale.
  18. These are great combos IMO; possibly the best combo available over the last 10-15 years or so. I had one for a few years and really liked it; the 2-channel facility is really handy in gigging situations, especially is you use more than one bass during a gig (which I often did). The on-board features, such as the semi-parametric e.q. , 'enhance' control, compressor and tube stage input mean you can do just about anything with them sonically. The only exception perhaps is that more overdriven, gritty rock sound - which the Metro doesn't really do unless you put a pedal in front of it. And that's why I sold mine one in the end as the music I was playing required a change to a more rock-orientated sound.. Another good feature is that you can run this down to 2 ohms, so you can add more cabs as required! Anyway, that's my 2p worth, and just to say good luck with the sale!
  19. [quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1358286256' post='1936575'] Hi mate, hope all's well, it's been a long time. Don't let the fact that it's overkill in a small club put you off a 1516, it's overkill almost anywhere! I've been using it in a 10'x6' room at home. [/quote]
  20. Lovely looking bass! It's really good to see more of these P Bass style 5 string basses coming up for sale - there are so many Jazz style 5ers around it makes a nice change.. Good luck with the sale!
  21. Hi Chris, Happy New Year and good luck with all the sales.. Hope everything is going well for you and the family over in Aberystwyth? Must say, I've always fancied one of those 1516's, but I know it'd be overkill in most of the clubs I play in, let alone my back, so I'll pass and let Gary take over West Sussex with his Boogie cabs! On another front, I know you're looking for an 'acousticy sounding acoustic' 6 string at the moment and last year, I bought a Faith Venus, which really fits the bill for me - much more organic and natural sounding than a Takamine or Ovation to my ears.. Might be worth you checking out?? All the best Nik
