  1. [quote name='andyonbass' post='53550' date='Aug 31 2007, 07:20 PM']Hey, Eude, now that Niks is gone, I hope its ok to mention that I'll have a natural one up for grabs in the not too distant future, I bought it as a back-up while Alan made my ACG recurve and now its a back-up while he makes my J type! Its hardly been out of the box. It was up for grabs on here before I ordered the J but didn't sell [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=1086"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=1086[/url]. It'll be surplus to requirements when the J is finished. I'll be going to Moffat to collect it if your mate is interested at that time. I believe you know the way to Moffat Sorry for the hijack, nik Cheers Andy[/quote] No problem Andy! Hopefully you can help Eude's mate out....
  2. [quote name='Jebo1' post='53395' date='Aug 31 2007, 02:50 PM']I'll buy it. PM me the details, but I'm not going to be on the internet now till Monday. Cheers, Lawrie[/quote] OK Lawrie - it's yours! I'll PM you later today.. Just get back to me when you're back on line on Monday. Thanks! And thanks Alpha-Dave for correcting my schoolboy-error - Doh!! Nik
  3. Love the new Avatar Ped and 3 is a very lucky number (apparently). You've reached a kind of Vigier/Zen/Numerology Nirvana I reckon!
  4. [quote name='Rich' post='53165' date='Aug 31 2007, 09:48 AM'][b]Status Shark 5[/b]. There's one on fleaBay at the moment, starting at 250 if memory serves. CK had one for a while, he could give you the gen.[/quote] I had a Shark 5 for a few years Rich..good call ! Very well made, great sound (bit like a MM bass) and brilliant low B string for a 34" scale 5er. Can't recall the string spacing but it was definitely wider than the Spector style, which is 16.5mm but maybe not 19mm. Wouldn't be surprised if it was 18mm...though can't swear on it. Nik
  5. [b]SOLD pending the usual.....Happy to have avoided Evil Bay.. Thanks for the interest![/b]
  6. Hi Folks, 4u silver flighcase for sale, in reasonable condition. Not sure what make it is but it does the job perfectly. Dimensions are 62cm x 50cm x 20cm. Looking for £25 plus the p&p, which is what I paid for it. Only reason I'm selling is that I've been given another one so this is surplus to requirements. 1 more photo here: [url="http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e358/silverfoxnik/Aug07086.jpg"]Silver flightcase[/url] Thanks for looking, Nik
  7. *** NOW SOLD - Thanks for all the *** Hi Folks I've decided to go for a Gallien Krueger rig, so have a GK head on it's way to match my 2 GK cabs. All of which means I need to let this fine Hartke head go. For those who know, it's one of the best value heads on the market, having some very good features for the money including Tube and Solid State pre-amps, graphic e.q., low & hi pass contours, compression, DI out, FX loop etc. It delivers 300 watts into 4 ohms and 230 watts into 8 ohms, so it's got a bit of punch!! It's in pretty good condition, the original casing being almost perfect and could be supplied in a flightcase for an extra £25 if required (see photos). All the features on the amp work perfectly. Last year, I had a the fan replaced but other than that, there have been and there are no issues with it. I've done about 50 gigs with it in a year , ranging from small pubs to large wedding halls and it's been fine in all those different circumstances. Because I DI into the band's PA as well, I've never had to push the amp to the max just to hear myself, so it's been well treated in that respect. Comes with all the original packaging, but not the manual, though I downloaded it from the website and can send that as a PDF if needs be. Viewing/testing is very welcome down here in Littlehampton, West Sussex if anybody is nearby and wants to check it out first which is always best if you can do that. I'm trying to avoid PayPal if possible, so cheques preferred and am happy to ship this to wherever, though obviously that will be an extra cost. Because Hartke heads don't seem to go very quickly on this Forum for some reason, I will be Ebaying this over the weekend too, but would obviously much prefer to see it it go to a fellow Basschat member if possible.. Am happy to answer any further questions, though hopefully, I've covered most things already. It's a great amp in that it's very easy to use and with the graphic and the hi/low pass contours, it's tonally very flexible and you can even upgrade the tube to further improve it's sound quality.

  8. [quote name='Chappers' post='52904' date='Aug 30 2007, 05:45 PM']PM sent.[/quote] PM replied to!
  9. [quote name='owen' post='53048' date='Aug 30 2007, 11:02 PM']I picked up an MTD Kingston for £150 here (or wherever we were at the time). I might re wind the pick up (Wizard £35), dump an East MM-a-like pre in £95 and you are away. I absolutely LOVE the MTD, it is lighter than a light thing, cheap so that I don't have to look after it and the neck is JUST FABULOUS (if you like wide and thin). I cannot speak highly enough of it.[/quote] I had two MTD Kingston's - the single pick up model and the MM/H model and they were both great. Cost approx £200 each as I recall. Other than that, the Yamaha range of basses is pretty good too. Good luck with the search, Nik
  10. [quote name='wotnwhy' post='52803' date='Aug 30 2007, 02:26 PM']oh god! mate, your killing me! IF ONLY i had spare money... [/quote] Sorry to cause a fellow bassplayer any pain!! Just trying to sell a bass for a few sheckles Hi Eude That's very good of you mate - thanks, Nik
  11. Been thinking about this... As an Ebay listing will cost me in fees and potential PayPal fees, I'm prepared to let this go to any Basschat members for £180 + p&p. So, if anyone wants a great 5 string for £180, let me know. Thanks Nik
  12. [quote name='Johngh' post='52621' date='Aug 30 2007, 08:45 AM']I can't believe this is still here for £200, it would be a great Bass for anyone wanting to test the water on a 5er[/quote] Me neither, so it looks like it's off to Evil Bay at the weekend, which is a shame but needs must! Thanks Nik
  13. [quote name='Bassman' post='52603' date='Aug 30 2007, 07:26 AM']so sorry, I don't have any bucks, I know it's a good deal but I can't right now Another Bump for this great bass.[/quote] No problem Bassman and thanks for the BUMP!
  14. [quote name='Motocross_nick' post='52520' date='Aug 29 2007, 09:26 PM']pm'd[/quote] And returned!
  15. Great to hear that we raised £130 for a good cause and thanks for sorting that out Dave; excellent work!! Mind you, does that make the Basschat SE Bash the bass player's version of a Salvation Army Coffee Morning?? If so, we need some Hobnobs at the next one and hairnets all round! [i]"Thanks also to (Silverfox)Nik & Walman for letting me noodle around on their WALs - first time I've ever met one in the flesh & I can see why they have their followers"[/i] Cheers Pete - enjoyed the noodle on the Arias as well... I'm up for another SE Bash and/or the next National one, depending on all the usual provisos but particularly location. Mind you, I wouldn't want it to appear that the National Bash choice of location is being monopolised by people from the South East. That's why I thought the SE Bash two weeks ago was such a great idea. Solved that particular problem... With so many people to cater for, the earlier we book in some dates the better, so let's book some dates in soon. Nik
  16. [quote name='WalMan' post='52053' date='Aug 28 2007, 11:43 PM']Cheers again Nik. A new bass every 20 years is a bit slow for most here I know but I'm working on it!! Now then.......amps [/quote] Thanks mate! A pleasure dealing with you and all went according to plan, but can't remember whether it was your Plan A, B or C? Considering you've had your Wal for 20 years it's high praise indeed for another bass to be 'allowed' into the Walman stable!! Enjoy the bass.... ..As for amps; now there's another story...See you on the 15th all being well, Nik
  17. [quote name='Bloodaxe' post='52066' date='Aug 29 2007, 12:13 AM']Drool... Lovely, very fair price & Padauk Red as well. Alas 'tis not for me, the "eye" dot markers indicate that it's the wider-necked variant & my fingers ache after a bit on my 34" narrow SB-900. If we're "naming & framing" Bassassin likes a bit of red... Pete.[/quote] Hi Pete Thought this might be for you but having read your post, it's amazing what you can learn on this forum!! It is a nice bass as you say.. Hope all's well with you, Anyway, here's another BUMP for the SB-60.. Nik
  18. Now that the Zoom B2 1.u that's just been for sale here has been sold, thought I'd BUMP this one back to the top! I'll probably Ebay it if no-one wants to make me an offer Nik
  19. Just to say that mybass is a really cool person to deal with so whoever buys this won't be disappointed! Great price by the way and good luck with the sale, Nik
  20. [quote name='Rich' post='51570' date='Aug 28 2007, 09:22 AM']And that, my friends, would be a [i]brilliant[/i] bona-fide bang-for-buck bargain. How's that for a spot of early morning alliteration? +1 for a terrific amp.[/quote] Extremely eloquent and excellent early morning exposition, I'd say! Afternoon analysis of amazing alliterative agility..... bloody difficult to keep up!!
  21. [quote name='Bassman' post='51631' date='Aug 28 2007, 11:12 AM']this one will be great dont look further. I let you know before 1-2days if I could take the bass.(pay the bass - deep bankaccount or not ) Thx[/quote] Ok Bassman - I'll wait to hear from you, Thanks Nik
  22. [quote name='Bassman' post='51600' date='Aug 28 2007, 10:36 AM']Hello, is possible to send it to Belgium? How much? Thx[/quote] Hi Bassman To send to Belgium via Parcelforce International Standard is approx £37.00 (GBP). It's a 3 day service, insured up to a value of £150 but is not trackable whilst in transit. A trackable service which is better, would cost about £10 more. I find Parcelforce are reasonabley priced though I can look at others and get back to you if you like? Thanks Nik
  23. BUMP to start the week... Just wondering why there's so little interest in these BB basses here? Is it the price or something about the basses themselves? Nik
  24. [quote name='stingrayfan' post='51221' date='Aug 27 2007, 10:46 AM']Just go with what makes you feel good when you're up there playing, Nik. Don't start flogging stuff off just yet though - allow for a re-think! Truth be told, the punters at the bar are probably hearing a completely different sound anyway.[/quote] That's good advice! [quote name='stingrayfan' post='51221' date='Aug 27 2007, 10:46 AM']Mind you with that Peavey head, they won't be listening to the sound, they'll be trying to work out why the bass player's brought what looks like a top-loading VHS video recorder with him. [/quote] LOL There's no answer to that very perceptive comment, Matt! Perhaps whilst I'm at it, I could decorate my tiny corner of the stage (well, floor space really) with some Farrah Fawcett-Majors posters circa '78, a copy of a Joe Jackson 7" single and some pictures of Bjorn Borg and Vitus Gueralitus (..late 70's tennis player who inherited his name from a venereal disease) having a couple of bad hair days...or decades! That'd sort it out nicely - who cares about the sound!
