My first outing tonight with the CTM300 and the 810, it sounded amazing I’m totally converted to valve amps finally!

Nice, but how heavy is that 8x10? I had a 6x10 and it weighed a ton. Had to get rid in the end.

Ooh I've got one of these. Great things. Use mine all the time, it really has got almost everything you'd need to set up your guitar / bass

That's exactly the same setup that I have. Excellent sound and plenty of grunt when needed. I run mine through a 6x10 usually and it's immense. This is a bargain too ... wish it had have come up when I was buying mine.

This sounds like Trigger's Broom to me with all them replacement parts.

PM'd mate.

Blimey this is a blast from the past. In the 80s I had one of these with a H|H Bass Baby head. The sound was immense with huge bottom end. Weighed a ton but well worth it.

Do you mean ‘a bit like Harleys’?

Joking, joking, only joking, honest!

Ha! Only the Harleys that I own. They've all been on the back of a recovery truck at some point in their lives!

I was concerned about the lack of body contours when I got mine last year but haven't found it to be a problem. The body radius is enough to soften the edges. If it had a hard edge like binding that would be a different matter! Great basses and outstanding value for money.

Do these work if you have a fat stomach?

Asking for friend.

It is if you don’t have small hands which have RSI issues!

Well Mr Trump ... never mind the bass ... I have some other issues that need discussing

35”, damn it. 

Surely that's an enhancement?

9 large? F@ck off ... there must be something in the water in Wales.

At best 1500 he should be asking and certainly no more.

I have bought a couple of kits of this fella and I have to say, they're top drawer.

It's funny, whenever I look at eBay listings for Jazz basses or Precisions, the first thing I think of is replacing the pickups and wiring harnesses. John is always the go-to person for the harnesses. Quality and value.

They're terrible basses. I've played a few and they've been consistently crap.

A bit like Arsenal if truth be told.

I have a Euro Doug Wimbish bass and absolutely love it. The nut width is narrow but if you're a Jazz Bass fan, the necks on these are even more comfortable if you can imagine that. Sadly, the price is way out of my league but good luck with the sale.

It's the sound of premiership footballers Lambo's you need to worry about around  here these days! 😂😂😂

I can imagine! No offence, but I hated the place. I lived on Queen Street, opposite the Waitrose. The looks I got from shoppers as I stocked up on beer were comical. The pub round the corner (Three Colts?) I went once. Never again.

I'm tempted to tell the missus this is a Henry Hoover and nip up to Buckhurst Hill and relieve you of it (I lived there for a year, hated the place. Had the police called on me twice for my bikes being too loud, but that's another story!).

This is an absolute steal. GLWTS

Yep, it's got the trim pot on it. Came out of a 5 String Euro LX from 2010 I think

I think I have a spare tone pump kicking around somewhere that I'd be willing to sell. What do they go for now?

At least... it isn't a pink one.  You might have been cross about that  

I had a black one and a pink one (Ooooeeerrr Missus!)

Sold to me dirt cheap by a guitar tutor who "acquired" them from "somewhere". I did ask but he never did say.

I had one of these when they were new. Great little basses and very easy to cart around too if you haven't got transport. Nice tone on them too.

Wow, that's lovely. Can't beat a Spector.
