Having moved to a three storey house - I'm debating whether to go down the lightweight combo road before I break my neck on the stairs. Hence the current rig may be up for sale either as a whole or split. I'll probably not let the amp go on it's own as it's the cabs that put most of the weight into the rig. - Hartke LH500 Head fitted into a gator 2u case. This head is as new and i'm looking for £230 with the case. It's only been used 4-5 times. - Trace Elliot 115 cab - looking for about £120 - Trace Elliot 210 cab - looking for about £120 Both cabs are covered in the 'carpet' material and are in good nick. One ofthe badges has lost it's green and there's a couple of scratches on the speaker grills. Photos to follow I'm based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire but regularly travel over to Manchester and SW Lancs.

ARIA PRO II MAGNA SERIES 5 STRING BASS. Excellent condition. Plus gig bag. - looking for around £120 Early 1997 vintage from the serial number and with hardly a mark on it, it looks almost new and can be described as mint for the age. 2 volume/blend controls and one tone control. Front pickup is a P-Bass style and the rear is a J-Bass style, which give the best of both worlds with a fat bottom end to a crisp top end with all the expected versatility of both. Very light, so no need for scaffolding to support it as is common to many 5 string basses, approximately 8lbs (3.5kg) 22 fret neck. Width of neck at nut a mere 46mm, width at 12th fret 62mm, so it's extremely narrow, not much more than a lot of 4 string basses. C shaped neck, satin finish with a lovely smooth finish through use. Machine heads still nice and accurate, strings stay in tune, even when used hard. Neck and fingerboard are still true with no twisting or warpage. Set up with a low action and no fret buzz at all. Reason for sale.....................this was my first go at a 5 string bass and I just haven't taken to 5 strings ! - will stick to 4.

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='614080' date='Oct 1 2009, 06:28 PM']Same bass as ALF played. Looking for this pic tainted my childhood. [/quote] Hell - if it was the same colour as alf's, I'd buy it

Think I might look elsewhere - £450 looks steep for something so difficult to identify

Been on the look out for a decent precision and have been offered this MIJ one. Serial number dates it 1984-1987 from fuji-gen factory Not seen one like it before with the black headstock so wondered if anyone knew about these

As my one and only band are having a re-union after some 25 years apart, I am having to learn to play again after giving it up when the band originally split. It's times like this that you realise what the online age has done to help people starting out in music Have grabbed some kit as follows: PEAVEY TKO 115 S COMBO AMP ARIA SB505 Also picked up a Yamaha fretless (thanks Kev) We played / will be playing our own stuff which at the time would have been defined as post-punk / new wave I guess. My old set up was an Ibanez roadster through a McGregor 200W / 15" ported speaker. Would welcome some advice as to how to get the best out of the new kit. Have added a Boss Bass Chorus and will prob look for a Compressor as well
