  3. SOLD - thanks for looking!
  4. Hi Folks, 'New year, new thinking' and all that, so I've decided to have a bit of a clear out... Some of these items are just a feeler at the moment but if someone wants to make an offer, then please do.. Just to be clear, prices below do not include shipping and as it's a while since i've sold something on Basschat, I realise I might be a bit off the mark with prices.. So I'm happy to listen to all [u]sensible[/u] 'near offers'. [b]Amps/Pre-amps/cabs[/b][list] [*]Markbass LMT 500: [b]£SOLD[/b] [*]Reussenzehn Daniel D Bass Deluxe Tubebooster/valve pre-amp: [b]£80[/b] [/list] Pics: [attachment=96479:Daniel D.jpg] [b]Postage etc[/b] I'm happy to ship stuff of course, but for anyone nearby to Littlehampton, you're very welcome to come and 'try before you buy'.. Just realised that all these items came to me via Basschat (or one of it's previous incarnations) - fancy that? So that's what I've been doing with all my spare time!! Any questions, please feel free to ask here or PM me.. In the meantime, thanks for looking! Nik
  5. Hi Folks Thanks for the replies and good wishes.. Nice to see some 'resolutions' in there too! Shaggy - i was up THAT early because we had to travel to London for a family do; otherwise, this thread wouldn't have happened after the night before... Am back to work tomorrow sadly as I've enjoyed the break.. Cheers Nik
  6. Not sure if there's another thread saying this but just to say a happy new year to all on Basschat! Have a good one.. Nik
  7. BUMP for new price: £80 + p&p Happy New Year folks!
  8. More details here: http://www.walbasses.co.uk/
  9. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1325272432' post='1481661'] I knew Pete for 22 years and spent many happy hours at the workshop(s) and snooker club. A genuine, lovely, talented man. I will miss him very much, but both he and Wal leave a wonderful legacy in the instruments they gave to us. [/quote] +1 Well said Gareth! Like many here, i met Pete lots of times at the workshop(s) in High Wycombe starting way back in 1983 when I got my first Wal (that was a lovely bass that was..). Stories abound about how many times he repaired, restored, upgraded and worked on so many Wals long after he and Ian Waller had first made them. And usually all that work was done for only a token payment in return. It really was lifetime customer care! Pete and Ian respected their customers and made real friends of a lot of them and I think that's got as much to do with the amazing legacy that surrounds the instruments, as much as their uniqueness of design and tone and fantastic build quality, which of course was Pete's department.. RIP Pete. Thank you - you did us all proud! (P.S. if anyone hears news of the funeral and a collection, I'd be very keen to know and send something)
  10. Another life-long Bowie fan here and yes, have to agree with all the praise for Mick Ronson. Moonage Daydream is pretty much my favourite guitar solo ever and that along with his string arrangements (particularly on Hunky Dory) secure Ronson's place as one of the best musicians of his generation IMHO. I absolutely loved this footage; Bowie at his best and it had so much energy and vitality when compared with say, some of the live performances you see these days on 'Later' for example.. What a great find!
  11. +1 it sounded great at the West Sussex mini-Bash on Saturday!
  12. +1 It was a great day; I have some photos to upload which I'll do later or tonight..
  13. Yes - please come along!.. And feel free to bring some of your gear with you if you want? One of the main activities at a Bass Bash is getting together with like-minded people with a shared interest in 'all things bass'.. and having a chance to show off your gear, look at other people's basses/rigs/fx etc... Look forward to seeing you there..
  14. [quote name='Bottle' timestamp='1322069417' post='1446192'] Tempted....very tempted.....saw 'PantherAirsoft's bit about the Big Twin T in the DnB thread, so that and the S12 would be on my 'must listen to' list GK MB500 is now up for sale, along with the 4x10, so getting rid of everyhting so far Ian [/quote] ...you have been assimilated, Mr Bottle!
  15. The Barefaced Super 12 (IIRC) that Alex had in the Jam Room was fantastic!
  16. Thanks for all your hard work Colin! As silddx said, your efforts really are appreciated by everyone involved and it simply wouldn't be possible without you...... Nik
  17. It's really interesting to hear what everyone else gets up to...creatively that is! This could be a topic for the next SE Bass Bash...
  18. Very nice! One of Pete's by the look of it...
  19. [quote name='Bottle' timestamp='1321368560' post='1438284'] PS I've just bunged this up as you may be interested in it - the bassist from Clatter uses a three-way rig, with a Mesa Dual Rec and a 4x12 guitar cab for the seriously over-driven portion of her sound - quite interesting to see how she's done it [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6HbKRkPnpA"]Clatter Bass Rig[/url] HTH [/quote] That was really helpful Ian; that's quite a set up she's using!!
  20. Thanks for the YouTube link Ian; will watch that with interest tonight... Guys; thanks for the other suggestions.. all really helpful! I like the modified Volume pedal idea.. I haven't had time this week to do any more work on this but I'm thinking that provided I have my FX rig using different speakers to my SWR Triad - so, say a cab with 8" drivers for example - then I'll get this idea to work really well.. Nik
  21. Hi Si, That's cool! Look forward to seeing you all next week Nik
  22. Just a week and a half to go now; any one else interested in coming along to this??
