  1. Hi All, So my new band just played our debut show on Saturday, and I took one of my GK 410 RBH cabs. These things handle 800 Watts 8 Ohms... We were up first at the show, I didn't notice anything unusual while I was playing through our set. Signal was going into the cab via the 1/4 socket rather than the SpeakOn. The bassists in the bands that came after us all used my cab, most of them with their own heads. I was around and helped connect things, and we were always using my speaker cable which is really high quality (nice Designacable one with Neutrik jacks). During the performance of the very last band, I noticed that something was glowing periodically in the upper left side of the rear of the cab. There was a white / yellowish glow that looked to me like it was coming from sparks. The glow was so bright, that it even shined through the paper on the speaker cones on the left of the cab. Everything continued to sound fine... performance went on and the cab never caught fire or anything. 😂 Has anyone seen this happen before? I'll have to pull out a speaker or two and see what is going on back there... I also wonder if using the 1/4" jack rather than the SpeakOn connector had something to do with it. I have two of these 410 cabs, have driven them really hard in the past, but never experienced any issues. BUT on all other occasions I was using the SpeakOn socket.
  2. Hi All, If you're in / around Lincoln, or don't mind traveling a bit, please come check out my new punk / hardcore band Shreds. at the Akēdo Bar Lincoln! We're on at 20:00 https://www.facebook.com/events/3373107766301795?acontext={"event_action_history"%3A[{"mechanism"%3A"your_upcoming_events_unit"%2C"surface"%3A"bookmark"}]%2C"ref_notif_type"%3Anull} https://www.instagram.com/shreds.official/
  3. That's pretty cool! How does it sound? Any videos or sound samples?
  4. i kind of regretted selling... so I am somewhat happy to see it listed here again. But... I really shouldn't! GLWTS!
  5. I have a total of 8 sets of surplus Electro-harmonix quad matched KT-88 valves up for sale (totally unused). Price is £250 / set and this includes shipping in the UK. Valves were quad matched by Hot Rox and purchased new from them in 2022. I just re-valved my two Strategies, and I'm keeping a couple of sets as spares... so these are available if someone needs them.
  6. These are GREAT interfaces... I loved my smaller one so much, that I expanded to the 18i20. Excellent price for a 3rd generation one. GLWTS!
  7. Chris bought my Mesa Subway WD-800 bass head. Great communication, instant payment, no issues. Thanks a lot and enjoy the bass head!
  8. I'm selling this Darkglass Alpha Omega pedal that I bought new (original box included). It's a really great pedal, but is just a bit too metal for what I play and now is just sitting around un-used. After a pedal / tone 'shoot-out' session with our sound engineer, I've ultimately settled on using pedals like the Mesa Flux Drive and EHX Soul Food. Price of £175 includes the cost of shipping within the UK.
  9. The head was sold immediately! Most impressive... wow... now marking this thread as SOLD!
  10. Sorry, this head has now SOLD and the buyer has paid! Purchased used in mid-2020 from another Basschat member. Really great head, but my main amp is a Mesa Strategy and I want to now move on to the TT-800 as my Class-D back-up. The head is in perfect condition, and comes with the original soft case/bag, manual and signed Mesa tag! The price of £900 includes the cost of shipping within the UK. Here are the specs: Amp Type: Tube Preamp & Class D Power Amp Chassis Material: Aluminium Preamp Tubes: 1x Mesa 12AT7 Power Amp Power Devices: Class D Power Amp Wattage(s) Quick Reference: 800 Watts @ 4 or 2 Ohms / 400 Watts @ 8 Ohms Power Amp Details: Light-Weight, Compact Class D Power Amp with Variable Damping Control, Protection, Limit & 2-Ohm Load LED Indicators Convection or Fan Cooling: Fan Cooled Instrument Input Options: 1x 1/4" with Active/Passive Switch Preamp Details: 2-Stage Class-A Preamp featuring Input Gain with Clip Indicator (O/D LED), Variable High-Pass Filter (25Hz-125Hz), Fully Active 5-Band EQ (+/- 12dB) featuring Bass, Treble and a selectable/bypassable 3-Band Semi-Parametric EQ Sweepable from 80Hz-1KHz, 150Hz-2.5KHz & 300Hz-5KHz respectively, Passive Mid Control & Master Volume Effects Loop: Fully Buffered Series FX Loop Direct Line Output (DI): Balanced XLR Out with Pre/Post, Line/Mic & Ground Lift Switches Tuner Output / Mute: Tuner Output (back panel) with Play/Mute Switch (front panel) and External Mute Switching Jack (back panel) - See "Footswitch" in the Accessories Section for additional options External Switching Jack Options: External Switching Jack for Parametric EQ & Mute (Footswitch Sold Separately) Speaker Outputs: 2 - Speakon Output Jacks (no 1/4" speaker jacks) - 8, 4 or 2 Ohms Headphone Output: Yes Extra Amplifier Features: USB Power Outlet (great for charging my Warwick basses!), Headphone Output and Auxiliary Input Slip Cover: Included - Gig Bag with Shoulder Strap Weight & Dimensions Weight: 7 Lbs.

  11. Sorry @polvo, the Muff Pi is gone! I'll mark this one as sold.
  12. I just sold my GK Legacy 800 to Stephen. Rapid payment, great communication, great guy. Thanks Stephen and enjoy the new amp!
  13. I even hauled it into the studio with me about a month ago, when we were doing bass sound comparisons with different pedals / amps... We were so distracted by the Mesa Strategy 888 that I also brought, that we completely forgot about the GK RB1001. Never even plugged it in! Back home it went...
  14. I'm also super-happy with it, but unfortunately I just have too much stuff and in the past couple of years I've only used it one or two times (and I play bass nearly every day!).
  15. Indeed, a great pedal just not quite the sound I was chasing. I've also got the Darkglass Alpha-Omega, which I am hanging on to...
  16. I'm selling my Gallien Krueger RB1001 MkII bass head, which **includes the original box and documentation**. It's a really great bass head, no issues whatsoever. If you're looking for one, then you know what I'm talking about! I had it in a rack, so it is shown here with the ears attached. Of course I also have the original feet and handle, if you would like to use it out of a rack. This amp was purchased used off of Basschat before the start of the pandemic. I'm only selling because I now have too many amps, and realized while trying other bass heads during the pandemic that I really do prefer having a valve preamp. I now want to put the money into some other gear... so would like to pass this one along. Price is £449 (which includes shipping within the UK). If you're near Sheffield and would like to drop by to check it out, you're more than welcome. I have a specific piece of gear in mind, so I'm not interested in trades. Thanks!
  17. I'm selling my Aguilar Chorusaurus bass pedal. Pedal comes with the original box, but there is no power supply. There is some velcro on the underside of the pedal. This pedal works great, and is another one that was fun to play with for a while. However, it was ultimately not the effect that I'm after... I came to realize that I really just want a bit of reverb and so settled on a different pedal that does what I need. Price is £159 and includes the cost of shipping within the UK.
  18. Selling my bass Big Muff Pi pedal. There is a patch of velro on the underside. I purchased this used, and the pots were scratchy when it arrived. I opened up the pedal and cleaned the pots with DeoxIT contact cleaner, and it now works great. Another pedal that was fun to try, but ultimately the sound is not quite what I'm after... I just found it too fuzzy for the type of music I play. Price is £49, includes price of shipping in the UK. There is no box or power supply with this pedal.
  19. Selling my Darkglass B7K Ultra v2 pedal that has the Cabsim. Great pedal, which I purchased used. It has been really fun to play around with for a bit (even took it into the studio to compare with some other pedals), but the sound is a bit too metal for the type of music that I play. Has XLR out and headphone jack (in the spirit of full disclosure: the headphone jack seems to have a minor issue and only produces mono but I don't use with headphones anyway. Perhaps it is just a contact needing adjustment or a cold solder joint inside?). The underside of the pedal is covered in velco. Price is £249, and this includes shipping to UK. There is no box or power supply.
  20. I replied to your PM a couple of days ago @Raz A, please have a look. I was asking about your payment preferences for a 'Basschat' purchase (...just no PayPal F&F).
  21. UK buyers only please, as I do not want to deal with issues related to international shipping. Thanks for your understanding!
