  1. *** Now SOLD *** Hi Folks This [b]EBS Octabass Pedal[/b] is the first item of quite a few items that I'm going to be putting up for sale over the next few days. Now SOLD. Bought on here a year or so ago, it's in perfect working order and sounds great! Only problem is, I'm not using it because I tend to always use the octave patch in my Zoom B3 out of convenience... [attachment=238308:ebs-octabass-649053.jpg] Anyway, it is in cosmetically good order, and it [b]sounds[/b] [b]great[/b] - way, way better than the octave patch in my Zoom B3. Oh, and it is true by pass. It doesn't come with the original box, or the PSU I'm afraid, hence why it's priced at [b]£50 delivered[/b] to your door! Just to say that I'm not looking for any trades on this at the moment - thanks. If you've any questions, please send me a PM or ask away here. Thanks for looking! Nik
  2. Looks like a great event shaping up!
  3. Just bought a TechAmp 115 cab from Gareth. Apart from the cab being really good - exactly as he described it (and more in fact), it's always a pleasure dealing with Gareth because he really knows his stuff when it comes to basses and bass gear and you can count on the fact that the gear he's selling has always been really well looked after! Add to that his excellent comms, all-round friendly vibes and his long-standing reputation here on Basschat as one of the 'good guys'; trust me when I say that dealing with Gareth is always a positive experience. And to paraphrase him, he's a Basschat legend and highly recommended! What more could you ask for? Thanks Gareth! 😊
  4. Thanks for the very kind words Gareth, I am 'blushing'... 😊 Am just about to reciprocate on your feedback thread. Just to say that cab is exactly as you described thank you; very lightweight, and a very sweet tone indeed! Nik
  5. I've regretted selling quite a few of my old basses over the years; My first Rick 4001 I traded for a P Bass in 1982, which I then sold - I regret both those going! But there's been so many other basses that have come and gone since then, I've kind of lost count (or I'm going senile a tad earlier than expected). Time to make a list I think...?? On the plus side, I'm really happy with the basses I have now, so maybe it's not all too bad! 😀

  7. Seems like a great price to me for the 212, and for the rig as a whole... GLWTS
  8. No problem;I'll send you a PM. 😊
  9. We do Figure It Out, again in a 2 x guitar, bass and drums set up and it always goes down a storm... It's great fun to play too! Royal Blood are quite well known where we gig though, as we're only 20 miles from Brighton, so that probably helps.
  10. Wow! Totally agree Trevor; there's no one around in her class! I think it was Jerry Wexler, one of her producers, who said of Aretha: "She's all alone in her greatness" Hope she enjoys her retirement; she's earned it!
  11. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1486663646' post='3233700'] It might have been mentioned already but here goes; the debut Stone Roses album. Utter sh*te. I'm guessing the reviewers who proclaimed it to be the saviour of music were 'E'd up like all the fans. [/quote] +1 And, dare I say it around here, anything by Jamiroquai - especially the first album - leaves me totally cold! Synthetic, 'wannabe Stevie Wonder', funkless drivel.. and that's it's good points!
  12. Always loved those old cheesy soul tunes, like 'Betcha By Golly Wow' by The Stylistics, and 'Zoom' by Fat Larry's Band...
  13. Absolutely! My one had a Bartolini 3 band eq circuit in it and it was really versatile tonally.. I used it in a rock band and it sounded great. I had a Wal Custom 4 string at the time, and the Wal didn't get a look in, either live or in the studio. Got to say, this is a great price for a bass of this quality; my one cost £1450 new back in 1992, and I then spent another £250 on buying and fitting the electronics!
  14. [quote name='ElijahBass' timestamp='1486638642' post='3233405'] Bump! Thought someone would have took this of my hands by now [/quote] Me too.. I can't believe this is still here?? Great value for the money and it looks really cool! Looks like it replicates a lot of what the Roscoe Beck V would do, for a lot less money.. Anyway, GLWTS
  15. [quote name='krispn' timestamp='1486591324' post='3233162'] I used to own this cab or one exactly the same. It's was brill. I'm off to recommend it to my mate who's after a 212. I might even try and sell him mine and snap this up instead!! [/quote] Thought it looked familiar... 😊
  16. Got to give this cab a BUMP because it's such a good price for what it is! I know it's a cliché around here, but if I hadn't just bought a TechAmp 115, I would be sending you a PM right now.. Anyway, GLWTS
  17. Beautiful! I had one that was a bit older than this one and it was a truly fabulous, reasonant and very funky sounding bass! GLWTS
  18. Time for another BUMP for this quirky slice of British-built, 70s bass history!😊
  19. Hi there, Yes, it's still available but I don't have the plexiglass bridge cover I'm afraid. The badge on the headstock is what it came with when I bought it, and its also as the previous owner found it when he acquired it in the 1970s from its original owner. I also gig with it (a 2.5 hour set) using a wide leather strap, and have found it OK for me.. but it is almost 11 lb in weight so I realise that won't be the case for everybody. I'm based on the south coast in Littlehampton, West Sussex but am quite happy to ship the bass. Hope that helps, but let me know if you have any other questions.
  20. Very cool! And with the original case too... GLWTS
  21. [quote name='leschirons' timestamp='1486227319' post='3230186'] It's that time when we all get together to choose another 12 new numbers for the band. Been looking for something to buck things up a bit and came across this little gem. I think it'll be a winner as the original was huge in Europe and I think it'll be great fun to play. 99 red balloons by Goldfinger. Anybody else do it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-qfzH0vnOs [/quote] We do it and it goes down a storm at every gig!
  22. All PMs now answered and time for a Saturday BUMP! 😊
  23. Great cab with really intelligent mods and upgrades, from a very knowledgeable and respected forum member... What's not to like? GLWTS
