**Price drop to £315 for quicker sale** 

For sale my Warwick Rockbass Corvette
Been a real workhorse for me through gigging - but i'm more of a passive bass man so picked up a BB1025 and well kinda want another one so this has to go (and some other bits)
Paid 650 for is when i bought it 2nd hand - have since had it professionally set up - but then i gigged it for a while so could probably use another but plays great looks great and on the plus side (on the off chance you're put off by the ROCKBASS stamp on your Warwick) this one hasn't got RockBass stamped on the headstock

Collection Basingstoke as i have nothing to ship it in (honestly have no idea about shipping either so pickup is about the only option) - i do have a gigbag laying around i'll chuck in with it too

Price is firm 

I do have a little practice amp at home (Thomann cheapo special) but it'll do the job should you want to try it out

now for the usual questions

Weight - dunno i'll dig my bathroom scales out tomorrow
Scale  -  Bass length (so ermmm yeah that long - someone tell me how to measure it i will - but i'm 6ft2" and it feels good to me so the right scale :D)

Strings are not the newest so could use a new set - i'll see if i have a spare set laying around - but we're bass players honestly how often do we change strings?

Any other questions hollar.

Thanks for looking

Big JHW

**SOLD** (elsewhere)

PM inc

Yo Mr or Mrs or ermmmm - well Fleabag

is this still available - and excuse the dumb question - but is this on a free UK UHF waveband? (think that's the right thing to ask - new to wireless so best to check)

ta

even taking in to account inflation and what a quid was worth then compared to now it's still 10k over priced.
ok i'm never going to be rich enough to buy something like that so shouldn't really comment - but still wow !!

4button MGT-4 genuine Fender foot switch (selling for £50 on eBay, & Mustang MS2 2-Button footswitch)

This is without a doubt one of the loudest guitar amps I've ever owned but with more power than I need at the moment. The amp is in great condition, has been gigged regularly and shows very minor "road wear"

Everything works perfectly. Please see the photographs to appreciate the great condition of the amp and pedals.

If you have any questions please feel free to message me.

Sadly this is collection only as i have no way of packaging this out for postage

Collection Basingstoke - tho may be able to have myself or my guitarist come out to meet you within reasonable distance for petrol munnies. (and cake - i do love cake)

The Blurb stuff

The original Fly Rig, introduced in 2014, was a true game-changer for players in all categories, from touring pros to bedroom hobbyists. At a time when pedalboards were expanding and backs were breaking, the innovative Fly Rig enabled players to slim down without sacrificing great tone, and travel without fear of baggage surcharges and dreaded mystery backlines. Going beyond being just a multi-effects unit, the all-analog SansAmp technology enables any Tech 21 Fly Rig to be an actual “rig.” You can run directly into mixers of recording desks and PA systems, as well as augment your existing amplifier set-up. Always seeking to improve our offerings and listening to customer feedback, we’ve incorporated some new features to follow the same form factor as later Fly Rigs, such as the Bass, Acoustic, and Paul Landers Signature PL1. The Fly Rig 5 v2 retains the same SansAmp heart, Plexi/Cali distortion and Delay, but adds a few twists and turns within these sections. New features include an independent reverb with choice of room size, an effect loop, a tuner, and an XLR Output.

SANSAMP

Has the tonality of the Blonde Character Series pedal. It includes 3-band active EQ, Level and Drive controls. To dirty things up, you have the flexibility of using the Drive control, the Boost function, or you can add grit from the Plexi/Cali section. Or all three. Each method achieves different tones.

PLEXI / CALI

Provides the dirtier side of the Fly Rig. You have a choice of a roaring Plexi tone with its muscular crunch, detailed mids and mule-kick low end or the chunk of a ‘70s high gain amp tone inspired by the then-boutique shop over on the West Coast. Each mode can be dialed in to your liking with dedicated Drive, Tone and Level controls.

BOOST

Switchable Pre/Post Boost up to approx 12dB to beef up drive and distortion or increase the overall volume to punch up fills and solos.

DELAY WITH TAP TEMPO

Voiced for the sounds of a vintage tape echo, with Time and Repeats controls. The Delay includes a switch to change from 1/4-notes to dotted 8ths. A Drift button adds a random, unpredictable element to the modulation in keeping with its vintage roots. 

REVERB

Independent footswitchable reverb with choice of large and small “room sizes.”

EFFECT LOOP

Post-SansAmp, pre-effects to patch in external effect pedals.

TUNER

Chromatic Tuner, operable via the BLONDE/TUNER footswitch. You simply hold the footswitch down to engage, which simultaneously mutes the signal path.

1/4-inch 1megOhm input

XLR output with ground lift

1/4-inch low impedance output

Rugged, all-metal housing

Metal footswitches and jacks

Silent-switching, custom footswitch actuators

Measures 12.5”l x 2.5”w x 1.25”h

Weight: 20.7 oz.

Utilizes included 9V DC Universal Power Supply: Model #DC9.

literally yesterday i was just saying if i buy another bass it needs to be a 5 string jazz
i did NOT say it had to be fender - so this is super tempting (also just put Sire on the radar as an option that i hadn't considered) shame you're about a million miles away (well clearly not a million but FAR)
GLWTS

Man i need to sell some stuff - cause things like this keep coming up and making me twitch lol
GLWS - they're an awesome bass

didn't even know people could post to your profile  - but adding this here

Bought a strap from Graham
arrived today - possibly the best packaging i've ever seen on a 2nd hand item (think he spent the entire sale price on packing tape)
for "reasons" this strap has made me super happy 100% condition as pictured

will certainly buy from him again

Looks like they've got the cabs up for sale too

that's a lotta bass for not a lotta money - wish i had the cash and was more local

sound file makes it sound even more awesome.

GLWS

dropped a PM

i'm actually stunned - 7 months in to the year and i've still not bought anything bass or bass related.... starting to worry the wife i think - i've usually traded in or bought a new something by now haha

that 7 bolt neck was ahead of its time

i don't imagine this will still be here 1st weekend of May
but if it is you will be getting a DM
Free bump until then

100% just bought this exact case at full price from G4M 2 weeks ago (only to realise i think i need a 4u in about 2 months)
great little case for sure.

GLWS

i'm still in but - if the wife buys me a bass does that count? (she said she might)

never heard of a string twisting before - but checking over it, it all looks good n groovy

wasn't 100% considering a pickup change - just curious to know if ppl had ever done it and what they'd changed too.

BB Bass lovers i have a question (shocking huh)

so i love my BB1025 - it's become my main gigging bass which is awesome but.... i do find that the G string rings through a bit on the quiet side
i've tried raising the pickup height a little and changed the strings it came with to a set of EB Regular Slinky 45-130's (dunno why i just like these strings) - but it's still pretty weak sounding on the G string.

Anyone have a clue what might be the issue?
No before you ask i have not sent it in for a setup/service since getting it and yess..... i'm aware that'll probably solve the issue - but i was hoping it was something i could resolve myself before resorting to "finding a man that knows" at some sort of cost.

on a different yet somehow related topic - has anyone ever changed the pickups in their BB 5 string (P/J setup) - any recommendations?

Theres normally a setting on the receiver that sets it to mono or stereo. What this is doing, is take the L channel and put it on the right also. On some units, theres a focus mode, where you have two feeds in (via L and R) and you hear them both in mono - but you can blend the mix of the source coming in. (so you could your bass on L and the band mix on R... and then you could say put your bass as 60 % and the band at 40%. (the mix would be mono and being delivered to both your left and right ear)

Sorry was the LD Systems U308 i was looking at (a little cheaper than the 508)

Front of the unit has a Stereo/Mono switch

Receiver just seem to have channel select buttons + Volume

Awesome - i think that means this will work then - it's the LD Systems U508 IEM - so in theory i can just smash the single XLR in to the left or right channel (i'd prob put it in the wrong hole - sorry not sorry) and i'd be good to go
yes?

thanks for the help

Phil are you using the plastic/rubber tips provided with the KZ 10s or have tried other tips with them?

Sorry to jump on this also but i have KZ 10's and have the same issue as the OP there - constantly having to push em back in mid gig regardless of which "supplied" tip i use.
Can anyone recommend replacements that stay put better?
