  1. Ha ha, thanks for the above guys, it's certainly a monster. I'd love to sit this between a Modulus Sonic Hammer and a Mesa Boogie 1516EV, it would be the ultimate bass set-up.
  2. Couple more pics that better show the outline [URL=http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2685_zpsd3568ec1.jpg.html][IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j199/Beedster/IMG_2685_zpsd3568ec1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2692_zps4ee7131a.jpg.html][IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j199/Beedster/IMG_2692_zps4ee7131a.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Chris
  3. Ha ha, I've gigged it in the odd pub and had a loads of lovely smooth tubey headroom. Whilst I felt a little over equipped and it was a PITA to load, the bass coming through the floor made it worthwhile
  4. Hi, the rig is in Canterbury at present Chris

  6. [quote name='Mike' timestamp='1406325500' post='2510730'] I've got a cheaper DB to offer but not sure I could make up the shortfall, especially after buying an imac. Tricky. [/quote] Happy to open a discussion Mike
  7. [quote name='Mike' timestamp='1406278342' post='2509991'] Ahhh. Ah..ahhh. Hmm. [/quote] A very enigmatic post Mike
  8. [quote name='BassBod' timestamp='1406035101' post='2507688'] Neck - '71 Fender jazz, with binding and walnut strip. Very yellow and crazed finish. Has had a rosewood fingerboard added (was built as a maple one piece). Plays very well indeed, fingerboard has the lightest of playing marks, no significant wear. Chunkier 70's profile, and a touch deeper overall due to the added fingerboard (although it really doesn't look or measure any bigger than a standard neck plus frets). Ex-Beedster...but thats not uncommon around here. [attachment=167318:IMG_0914.jpg][attachment=167319:IMG_0916.jpg][attachment=167320:IMG_0913.jpg] [/quote] The neck is absolutely outstanding, great player and great looker, made even better by Paul Herman at Wal who worked his magic on the board just before I sold it to Duncan. It's probably worth not far off the asking price for the whole bass to be honest
  9. [quote name='bassmasterwraith' timestamp='1406029835' post='2507612'] Hi would you trade for a fender deluxe jazz USA 5 string with a deluxe john east pre? Thanks [/quote] Thanks mate but have all the basses I need Cheers Chris
  10. No real men out there then..........
  11. Hello Si Given what you've said above and what's been said in various threads on here previously, I think the consensus would be that you need to send it back. My M500 was very quiet, certainly compared to my Flightcase which went back as described in the thread Michael linked to above. Hope it all works out, keep us posted Chris
  12. All now sorted, new PUP selector switch installed, so back for sale. If this goes I keep the BB1200 and vice versa. Really can't decide between the two of them at the moment! Only trade option us a MIJ BB2000 with cash my way Chris
  13. Reminiscent of a mid-50's Eastern Block housing project in some photos though
  14. Thanks WB. Yes, myself and the sender were a little surprised, and to their credit the courier company provided some compensation. It's testimony to PJB gear that it still works perfectly. It's a great little rig. It's either this or my AER going, and if the latter sells first, I won't be too unhappy about this staying. It's great for DB but exceptionally and surprisingly good for electric bass also, which I wasn't really expecting to be he case.
  15. [quote name='chrisanthony1211' timestamp='1405878818' post='2506081'] Can this be linked up to a passive cab through the line out or is it like the amp one and needs a powered extension cab? [/quote] Hi Chris Unless I'm missing something, the latter. C
  16. Cables, made by Phil Jones, what can I say other than that they're very nice (and very heavy) [URL=http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2894_zps0a59c847.jpg.html][IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j199/Beedster/IMG_2894_zps0a59c847.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2895_zps9977d503.jpg.html][IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j199/Beedster/IMG_2895_zps9977d503.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2897_zps34ba88fa.jpg.html][IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j199/Beedster/IMG_2897_zps34ba88fa.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
  17. This is a bargain rig that I will keep if my AER sells. The cab was couriered to me and suffered a drop (bless those couriers and their delicate dispositions), so the bottom has been damaged. It sits fine with the foam supports I use, but won't sit fine on wheels. The D200 is a recent acquisition that - given its size - is ludicrously powerful and clean. I've gigged this rig it several times without problem, and to be honest I actually prefer the tone with the D-200 to that I was getting with the M-500, I've no idea if the two are voiced differently, but c'est la vie. I can't split as I'm in a 'if this rig sells then I won't sell the other one' situation, but trust me, you won't find many more hi-fi rigs than this at this prices.

  18. Bought to add to my Mandolin options but sounds strangely similar to my Ovation - which given the Ovation is the much sought after USA built MM68 is quite a compliment - so it's off again. Funny looking thing but apparently hockey stick headstocks are so hot right now Will be posted in the rather lovely and diminutive Fender cardboard mandolin box [url="http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2858_zps7af01d8a.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2861_zps9e8f8c8b.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2863_zpsbbdfe9f5.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2868_zps6f6802c9.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2860_zps63911e82.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2865_zpsfa010d2e.jpg.html"][/url]
  19. A menacing presence in my music room. 300w in old money. With this you can play Glasto without leaving Camden. Sold a year or so ago but the buyer never managed to collect (couldn't get a truck), so refund on its way to him, and I guess his bad luck is your good opportunity. Don't buy this if you play pub gigs, but if you're playing stages and need real presence, you know the score.

  20. [quote name='chrisanthony1211' timestamp='1405844034' post='2505622'] You could cause me some serious marital problems advertising this little beauty, time to speak to the boss! [/quote] Ha ha, same here mate, I might sell the rest of my PJB stuff - which was going to be my practice/rehearsal kit - and keep this, but you know how it is! Chris
  21. I don't often post this sort of thing, but I just want to say that Gary went above and beyond, and in a situation in which he or Promenade most certainly were not duty bound to. This is even more noteworthy given that I've never even been into the shop, and I've never actually bought anything from them. I won't go into details re what they did for me, but Promenade will be on my A-list from now on, and I'll most certainly be popping in to shake Gary by the hand next time I'm up that way. Chris
  22. Can't believe you're selling it Stuart
