  1. just catching up with this thread, can't believe where it started to go, good to see a resolution that suits the OP! I don't do sunburst or natural wood finishes BTW

  6. Just had a good read of this, all 12 pages! I've owned several 'rays, currently have two (been playing one all morning :-) Great basses, like has been said, when they are right, they are right! Hope this hets sorted, the classic ray seems like a good option if it comes off A few years back I got hold of a 5 string 'ray. White with matching headstock, maple neck, HH with white covers, looked very, white! I found out shortly after, that at the time, this bass shouldn't have existed! It was an order that was put together in the UK! I think EB frowned upon it at the time! Around the same time, a friend of mine in the music trade, told me that EB were a bit pissed with S&T's putting orders together from what they had in stock, i.e. necks, pickgaurds etc. They were insisiting that the correct spec' bass was ordered from them if they didn't have it in stock! Sounds like they are still doing that? Hope you get sorted! Tony
  7. A bit of a long shot this, but gotta ask! Anyone got a bass clarinet lying around, that they dont want anymore! It's for my partner, she is a very good clarinetist and for years she has wanted one of these, so feel like treating her for xmas :-) Tony
  8. Missed a few messages on this yesterday, all now replied to Easiest way to get me is phone 0783 double4 5218 zero Tony
  9. Its one of the older ones, not sure about the weight? No scales, it just feels like most other reasonable sized 4x10's Tony
  10. [attachment=91263:IMG_0708.JPG] [attachment=91264:IMG_1145.JPG] Just some shots I had on my phone! I'll add a few more later!! Tony
  11. Yeah, me too, but something has evolved into something very interesting, more on that later ;-)
  12. I think might cause me to get a few text messages very soon lol! Just a feeler right now as I may be looking at working with another home grown valve amp builder, off the back of the guitarist in my band already using their amps What we have is a Matamp GT200 with two 4x10 1200 watt 8 ohm cabs! This rig is in mint condition, black tolex with black grills on the cabs, covers included The amp is a smooth GT200, this can easily be modified to suit your sound, black tolex with light up "Green" on the front This rig is loud, very loud, it's just a fookin' huge sound Not very old, the amp was in at Matamp just before I got it, which is probably around 12 months ago I paid £1200 for the head, which was about right considering it's age at the time, I will take slightly less than this, but not much! I don't need to go with the new amps as this rig does the job, very well The cabs were around £500 each, again I will drop very slightly! Hope the pricing is OK by the forum rules, if not, take prices I quoted and ONO after them! Pics to follow I can meet within reasonable distance of Manchester, I will also ship the amp at your expense, overseas if needed but it is a valve amp so that needs to be taken into consideration, and it's heavy!! Tony
  13. 3 Leaf audio groove regulator Mk1 Excellent condition, boxed £115 delivered Tony
  14. I did consider that, hard to tell though! Hope not!
  15. Hi I recently picked up a Fender Jazz bass (MIJ) off this forum. When I tried it, it seemed fine, but had a high action. I've been playing for many years and having no problem setting up basses to how I like them, which is a medium / low action! I've done that sort of thing many times, set the relief in the neck, adjusted string height, intonation etc But this one is frying my brain, looks like there is a fret problem at the higher end of the neck The A and D strings are the biggest problem, with an amount of relief in the neck, both strings become unplayable at what I would call a medium string height! The A buzzes and is totaly dead at the 8th fret and the D is the same at the 12th fret, there is no note, just a dead, short buzz! The E is a bit buzzy and the G is OK, but it's not yet set up as I would like! anyone got an idea of what else to check as I've not delved this deep before? It looks like it's going to have to go into a local luthier! Tony
  16. I need to update this soon! Found some photo's of old basses and there have been a few additions! Outgoing is my LPB deluxe fretless jazz, found myself a fretless stingray to go with my buttercream 'ray, nice combo! Also new is a jap Jazz bass, wanted something for a GK pick up and also a bass I can play around with pick ups etc, it's a bit battered, all black and with the white pickgaurd removed, it looks cool, just needs a bit of fretwork as the A string is not right with a medium action Also new to me is some TE gear! I have my regular rig, which is a Matamp GT200 and 2 Matamp 4x10's, but I wanted something smaller for at home and the odd acoustic gig, I also wanted something that sounded less vlave, if that makes sence! So I have a TE AH250 on a 1x15 cab, not exactly small, but far more portable than the Matamp rig and this stuff is such a ridiculous price these days! In 1983 I think I paid £475 for an AH150, lot of money back then!! Pictures to come, just wanted to bump this up a bit! Tony
  17. Trace Elliot 1048 4x10 300W cab vinyl covered I recently bought a Trace Elliot rig off here as it was made up of the amp I was after and two cabs I only need one cab so am going to let the 4x10 go £130 collected from manchester I can cover the cab if you wish to arrange a courier to pick it up Photo's to follow Tony
  18. Help! Last night I asked my daughter to measure a stingray case (square type) for me so I could arrange a courier for a bass this morning and the sizes she sent don't make sense! I'm in work right now and she's probably still in her pit, so if someone could give me approx dimensions that would be great. I'm guessing weight at around 15lbs, so rounding it up to 10kg Cheers Tony
  19. Simple! Buy this and die happy! Tony
  20. Bump for a cash sale only, just picked up another bass :-) Tony
