    I sold my EBS Microbass 3 to Pete. Initially the headphone amp was noisy. Pete was really good about this and we had a way ahead awaiting contact from EBS. The issue resolved itself. A pleasure and thank you. It's when things aren't completely straightforward that peoples best qualities can come to the fore. Peter

    When I’m too old and stooped to play John I’ll let you know

    Just started up with a new band. Mature people, no prima donna's. It has all suddenly become enjoyable. I still chat with the old rhythm guitarist. They asked him to play bass. He told them where to stick it This is all water under the bridge now and I posted it at the time in part for reassurance. Given so much time I'm firmly aware that it was down to this guitarist and his personal issues. Sad as I put a lot of work in. It wasn't ever about artistic nuances. It was about his inability to play a consistent structure and then having a hissy fit when I politely mentioned it. Peter

    These were bought by me some time ago in a lovely shade of green. Overwound resistance 8.32 and 8.94 ohms in swamp green. Beware. Having such strong magnets can affect the action if you like it low. Peter https://photos.app.goo.gl/M8L5dukgmaFYP9tR9

    I am of course open to reasonable offers for this bass that punches well above its weight imo. Shipping wise I’d consider it with the neck removed (but in the box)

    Lovely cab. I have a pair. Surprised it hasn’t been snapped up.

    In mint condition, no box and velcro on rear.

    It is with a heavy heart that I put this bass up for sale. Having owned well over 100 basses including many boutique brands I have to say that this Jazz really is a bit special. I bought it from BCer Nick Carey some years past. It was his main gigging bass and he had Mr Robinson of Bolton do a fret dress and setup from new. Hipshot tuners were also fitted. It comes with a bright white pick guard and a red tort plate (that I need to lay hands on). It is a beautiful cream/off white and the condition is quite superb as hopefully the photos show. I fitted the Gotoh bridge which went on as if it was made for the bass, which is was. No height adjustment needed. The original is also available. The electrics have also been upgraded to CTS pots and high quality capacitors. The playability and tone are remarkable. I did try alternative after market pickups but they weren't as good as the originals that swiftly went back in. I've no spare case for the bass so local collection or meet-up is much preferred. I'm in the NW (Kendal) not far from the M6. Strung with low mileage Dunlop flats and it has Dunlop strap pins. It's quite light too at about 9ib. Reason for sale? I've moved to 32" scale and my 2 Zoots do the job nicely. Would consider trade for LMII or similar. https://photos.app.goo.gl/ZjmK6Lf8rWVDbxBM8 Price dropped further to £425

    Reasonable offers considered. I’m looking at another pedal and I’d like to sell this before the other unit goes. Peter

    I bought a great Ritter gig bag from Stu. Lovely cuppa and a real pleasure. I also bought hi iStomp a couple of weeks back. Perfect in every way. A pleasure Stu.

    I bought a stunning Zoot Funkmeister Jazz, medium scale from Mark. Catching up after many years was a pleasure and the bass is something very special. A pleasure.
  17. GreeneKing
    Thank you Mark. It was a real pleasure and the bass is perfect.

    You are right. I knew that there was an issue with the psu and that’s the large current drawn making the standard brick unsuitable. I was looking at another pedal yesterday and that had a 12v supply hence my confusion.

    Here's my EBS Microbass 3 unit, details here: https://ebssweden.com/content2/effects/ebs-microbass-3-professional-outboard-preamp/ It's in unmarked condition and comes with the original box and 9v PSU. Velcro applied to rear. Now I'm using only active basses I've no use for this great pre-amp. Fully functional. Viewing in Kendal welcome. I have much positive feedback on BC over the years. Peter

    pickups

    GreeneKing replied to terryj's topic in Bass Guitars

    I believe that there is a lot of hyperbole around pickups. There is only so much you can do with wire and magnets. There is little if any 'magic'. I'm very pleased with my Haessel pickups. I have a medium scale bass with their P pickups and it's very strong while retaining a great tone. It's a great signal to start with and sounds good both passive and active. I like, a lot Peter
