That is amazeballs! Actual schematics!

Dave is super helpful, good shout

Thanks for the replies. I know it’s a longshot and I know that a lot of people have taken out the old preamps because they do die of old age. but the thing is it’s part of the sound of the base and I’m not sure that there’s anything quite as tonally mad out there to replace it 😀 Would like to see if I can keep it going

I think my pre amp finally died.. new batteries and still the noises of doom. fine on the passive op. any one know of a tech that might be able to diagnose a million year old french board?

Got a reverb pedal from Pete. perfect in every way. thanks Mr Fleabag 🤘

Brought 2 pedals from the G man.. Great deal Nice bloke Amaze packaging Pedals better than described Very happy 10 points.

Changed my mind... I do want to be inna a "band" "collective" "beat combo" sadly I think my playing style is way younger than my actual body. any other old guys out there mashing up hendrix, zep and gong with the BUG, flowdan, chase and status and tyler the creator?

Did you find any one mad enough? I really like the demos btw riffs for all religions is a badass cave dweller of a thing

oh dear, oh dear.

Nifty Scotch Funketeers...

And I still cant quite believe I still own this little crocstar.. having lost basses and amps and tons of other shite over the 43 years i have been playing.. played my mates 73 jazz through it last night, 1st time I lit it up since at least 2002, and before that I think the last person to use it was guitar legend Link Wray when we were recording his “Shadow Man” album. Life is weird, no doubt.

Nissan Note - The Bass Players choice.

ok.. well I actually won it on the bay today... so will pick it up and hear what it is like. It is going to have a selmer T&B 50 sat on top and once thats back from the electrical refurb so lowish volumes.. and tbf the cab didn't cost much so if it a ringer, I will move it on to some happy guitarist and maybe build my own bass cab. once assembled, will report back 🙂

Thanks for the input, i used to run 412 but so heavy. Must admit not expecting great things from the Bandmaster but as a practice and pub chugger it may suffice. Will report back.

Any one stuck a bass through this cab and have an opinion? Seems like it's primarily a guitar/keyboard thing, but I used a Fender Twin for a recording session last year and it sounded pretty decent. I have a 50w valve head and wondered if it would be beasty enough for a bass if I sort out the wadding?

Noice Flame! have a battered old 63 VT & they are a joy to play. Enjoy. +1 for flats for "that" 60's thomp, and given the right, or wrong situation depending, you can achieve some wild feedback with these things 🙂

"I hated that effing Columbus.. but the selmer bass twin in Croc skin I would like back now please. thank you" And in an incredible twist of fate, my original Crocbeast has been found!! Brought by my dad in ~1976 at a school auction in Knebworth for £5 earth pounds and allegedly donated by Henry Cobbold of Knebworth Festival fame, and moreover, left behind after their stint at Kfest with a bunch of other stinky poo by none other than The Pink Floyd in 1975... The Amp was rediscovered buried in a mates loft this year.. How it got there, why it was there, no one can remember. It is at the menders right now, as my mate rightly said when I went all teary eyed, "nope; you will just plug it in and kill yourself, I am going to get it checked out 1st" Now I am looking for a suitable cab to plop under her as the massive chipboard 1x18 blobjob my dad made me having been long turned to weetabix... will post pics when I have my grubby mitts on her again.
