Having happily made the break and having almost certainly sold my gigging cab I have no use for my MarkBass LMII. It is in truly excellent condition and has spent most of it's life in it's vented bag as it's pretty mint. Italian made and comes with kettle lead and manual. I'll also throw in a high spec Speakon/jack lead. I've used several amps and came back to the LMII as they are so bloody good. Tomorrow I'll get my Strymon Mobius and my Cog x3 pedal up for sale too. Postage £15, inspection and collection from Kendal would be good also. Peter

[quote name='silverfoxnik' timestamp='1510217584' post='3404646'] Amazing cab, perfect gentleman in Peter to deal with - I'm surprised this doesn't say 'Sold' already! GLWTS [/quote] Cheers Nik, I'm a little surprised that there hasn't been more interest in what is I feel the best cab that may can buy and almost made of unobtainium too Price negotiable of course.

I've got a GMR. The builder moved to London from Eastern Europe, Romania if I remember correctly. He brought his business over with him and I think that he moved back. I don't know why. That price is insanely low in my opinion. Give away almost.

[quote name='sk8' timestamp='1510138323' post='3404182'] Fantastic cabs. I have a tinge of regret getting rid of mine but this is truly the pinnacle of 212 cabs. If you want the ability to replicate the exact sound your bass or effects are putting out then this is the cab for you. [/quote] Cheers Mike, pm'd you. Peter

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1510135868' post='3404159'] These are fantastic cabs and super-rare. Right up there with the best, if not THE best. Even if you weren't thinking about buying a cab, or imagined that your cab search was finally over, you should get in and buy this [i]immediately[/i]. Don't even think about it, you are unlikely to get another chance at one of these, at least not for a very long time! Needless to say if I had spare folding I'd be in the car heading north, right now! [/quote] Thank you, a kind and honest appraisal. I should add that there is some very slight discolouring where the handle slots are on the cover. A rarely noticeable cosmetic thing. We have some sun, even in Kendal...

I've made a tough decision. It's been several years since I've gigged and my last band venture fizzled out nearly a year ago. I've kept my gear for some time but I've finally decided that I'm comfortable with moving on. I'll keep a few basses and my TC Combo but the serious stuff isn't getting used. I still enjoy noodling but that's it. If Carlsberg made bass cabs..... Dave Perry, a good friend, made 10 of these cabs. I find Dave to be a remarkable man who is never happy with 2nd best. A perfectionist who never says 'that'll do'. On Dave's own admission it cost too much to make these cabs to his very high standard to make them tenable as a business proposition. Mine is immaculate and has only seen light use. It's never been abused or dropped, no-one has ever danced on it although it they did you wouldn't know such is the build quality and finish. It comes with a Roqsolid cover. Here are the specs: [url="http://www.extendedaudiodesign.co.uk"]http://www.extendedaudiodesign.co.uk[/url] How does it sound? Focussed, tight, articulate and powerful. As you can see there are attenuators for the mid driver and the tweeter. It has a 'proper' custom crossover. It's not super light but at 57lbs this 11 stone weakling finds it an easy one man carry. The finish is also used to coat horse ramps! To say it is tough is an understatement. I'm not prepared to ship having has a cab severely damaged by a courier but I am okay with travelling some miles down the M6 from home in Kendal where viewing is welcome. More gear to be added (LM 500 Tube, Strymon Mobius and Cog 3x fx etc). I do know that Scoop was looking for one to match his existing cab but he is sorted now.

Wedding/function band near Southampton
GreeneKing replied to GreeneKing's topic in General Discussion
I've been chatting to my daughter. The venue size limits the band to 4 or maximum 5 piece. Budget? I forgot to ask. I will update. Peter -

Replace a Musicman pickup with a Precision... Possible?
GreeneKing replied to sirmuppet's topic in Repairs and Technical
Am I the only one thinking 'why not beg/borrow or steal' or even buy a P bass? If you want the tone you haven't got to pay a whole lot. Pickup position is pretty crucial. -
Vanderkley are better than Barefaced cabs, right?!

[quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1499194913' post='3329905'] [url="http://www.sfxsound.com/microthumpinator/"]http://www.sfxsound....crothumpinator/[/url] [/quote] This. I drop the treble a tiny bit as I'm not keen on the string noise. With a Micro Thumpinator you can boost the bass without introducing mud. I like low mids but find it can be overdone.

Why can't singers sing in the original key?
GreeneKing replied to la bam's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='the boy' timestamp='1499183281' post='3329786'] the original was composed in a key to suit the original performers voice it's not cast in stone til the end of time. [/quote] Good point. -
