  1. You tried Axetec, Bubinga...or even is it worth having a word with Andy(?) at Wizard pickups? (A bit of aa "you never know", I'm afraid!)
  2. [u][b]Revised price of £310[/b][/u] OK, using my permitted bump to advise of price drop....hmmm. I guess my bass will go a wee bit quicker but the amp's gotta go first... Greetings pop-pickers...glad to see all the newer faces and many of the hardy perennials! My bass combo is no longer much used and needs another loving home. Here's the ad I'm shortly placing in various scurrilous sites(sorry, upmarket emporia)but thought I'd offer it to a Basschatter first. Please note (though I guess I'll still be asked), I wish remarkably no more, but nowt less than [s]£350[/s] £310 for this and am unable to take anything in trade. I'll try and include a link to my external gallery with pics(the "copy" is just about verbatim of the ad as follows. Finally, my apologies if I don't instantaneously get back to you(am desktop only) but will do within 24 hrs latest. The Eden sound in a very back-friendly(42lb in old money) and extremely versatile combo. 250W RMS(at 4 Ohms), 1x15" speaker(also tweeter). It has a very wide palette of easily-shaped tones with the added joy and relief of all its many other features being actually useful ones, and easily shapable on the fly. On the tone and range side, it has separate bass/ mid/ treble controls, a switchable "quasi"-parametric sweeping from 40Hz-10KHz and the Eden "Enhance" control: a highly usable pre-shaped tone curve that essentially "scoops" middles and boosts bass/treble. It also has switchable onboard compression and a –12dB pull pot for active basses(...though I do like the way my active bass drives the amp without it!). It's a clear and well-balanced sound, fully capable of dealing with the low stuff without squish. I've run both my jazz fretless and Status 5-er through it and both sound sublime, and I do like me tone, me. Feature-wise, just useful and sooo practical in a wide range of musical situations: balanced(XLR) out with level trim and ground lift(yeah), FX send/return jack sockets, headphone output(with or without speaker), output jack for external speaker. Dimensions are: 62.5cm(W), 45cm(H), 41.5cm(D). This amp's sturdy build and covering are in very good condition: I "gigged" it most weekends over the course of last year...er, well, in a church worship music setting (so not exactly beer and teethmarks!) where it was a rocker if I got to volume 3. I've loved this combo as it's very portable, dependable and with such a wide tonal palette yet still easily configurable. OK, I've used better compressors than the onboard one but the Nemesis has so many musician-friendly features and has just been rock-solid. Perfect for pub and small club gigs, well loud enough for rocking church worship dos, though an extension speaker would be needed for larger venues. I shall miss this amp sorely, but I'm having a reshuffle and find myself doing far less bass and far more guitar, and need to concentrate on the latter. Though portable, this is still a bass amp(doh), so local pickup infinitely preferred or via a meet within a (very) reasonable radius. I'm sorry, the price is for a cash sale only.

  3. Oo. Very attractive and nicely priced.(This is of no immediate help Schnozz...but as soon as my PRS goes...)
  4. ..I love it when you come out with the Yams...lovely! (I also would have guessed from the jpeg at a 3-piece mahogany body.) So surprised this didn't shift like a greased weasel Noel... a set neck guitar with mojo, beautifully crafted, with a hard case..for just over 3 ton. Does a seam of Yammys run under your house?!
  5. Skezza, I do apologise: I was only checking PMs and haven't looked in for a couple of days. Yes, you're right: push-pull on tone splits coils. Man that's some list..I've seen less well-stocked music shops! No thank you, as I'd be back to my usual pattern of not having a house so much as a music-kit storage space.(If you have a Jeff Beck Artist strat under the bed though, I'll get in the car...!)
  6. The Gibson Les Paul and the Fender Japan strat are now SOLD, in addition to the Vintage bass. I am willing to consider suitable trades as regards the PRS Custom 24...though for those little guitars with 6 strings: my bass department is monstered by my Status, ta.
  7. These pups are in good nick and I included them as part of my recent sale of the above. I further testify that I find our Stacker to be a chap with whom to deal with confidence.
  8. By the way all, I must apologise for my lack of clarity...a bit rusty after a year off: I'll be happy to ship within UK; £10-worth of postage costs included in sale; payment= cash for local collection, otherwise to my bank account via direct transfer before postage. Sorry to PMers for my causing needless confusion.
  9. Badboy: replied, thank you. Bassdude: I'd contribute a tenner for shipping within UK but not outside; apologies.
  10. Replied, Stacker, thank you. Bless ya Jim...no ACG I see!
  11. ADDED THURS 20th OCT The Les Paul and the Fender Japan have now been SOLD. I'm willing, as per my post below, to discuss suitable trades as regards the PRS. ADDED THURS 13th Oct: [u] I'll be happy to ship within UK; £10-worth of postage costs included in sale; payment= cash for local collection, otherwise to my bank account via direct transfer before postage.[/u] Sorry to PMers for my causing needless confusion. The Wizarded Vintage Icon VJ96 on the Basses For Sale section has now been SOLD.. Allrightythen: I trust you'll research my Basschat pedigree here, as it's finally time for the moment I've been putting off for a few years: I'm both moving from a recording to a live environment and confessedly deeply desirous of a very nice Parker Fly. I have for sale the following...note that details below are brief: for detailed pics and full specs please visit my gallery as follows, else this post will be a mile long: [url="http://www.pbase.com/doverow/gfs"]http://www.pbase.com/doverow/gfs[/url] Please PM me for more details or mail me at the addy shown on my gallery. 2002 Gibson Les Paul Std; honeyburst, 60s neck. It has been upgraded with BKP Mules(4-conductor), CTS 500XL pots, RSGuitarworks .022 caps between V and T pots and .001 orange-drops caps on V controls; the neck Mule has been wired in reverse polarity for the quasi Greeny sound and is easily reversible. I can only say this is a jolly superior Les Paul, though should the new owner wish to restore it to factory spec, all original controls and pickups(Burstbucker2..now called BB Pro, I believe) are included, as is the Gibson USA case. £1350 2003 PRS Custom 24; whale blue, hardtail, Dragon 2 pickups; Vol, Tone and 3-way switching. A few whitened marks on its figured top and buckle rash courtesy of previous brief owner: the nice Mr Manson form Exeter was as pleased as I that it went to my loving embrace. Case included. £1075 Fender Japan '68 Reissue Strat; CIJ model from 1998/99; 4-bolt neck, 2-piece natural ash body and maple neck, lacquer finish. It's had an executive-class upgrade: 250K pots, Wizard Tweed-Tone pickups, Graphtech vintage saddles with graphite inserts. Before its upgrade, the sound had the wiriness of a 1985 Sqiuer and now is impeccable: should the new owner wish its "factory preset", included are original pickups, Fender-stamped vintage saddles and all bits. My, this one I need anaesthetic to remove from me to be honest. Includes scuffed, old-school square Fender USA case. £750..and the only one I cannot budge on price. Right, having got the text up, I'll attempt the small pic uploads, but the gallery ones are better! [attachment=91158:2729_LP.jpg] [attachment=91158:2729_LP.jpg] [attachment=91160:2802_strtWeb.jpg]
