  1. They do say of course that you give to receive. True. You receive so much more than a mere 'thing' or possession.
  2. [quote name='CHRISDABASS' post='598086' date='Sep 14 2009, 12:19 PM']WOW!!! What a bass!!! what do all those controls do? [/quote] Volume, low pass filter with resonant peak control and high pass filter with boost. I bet you wish you'd never asked It's a ACG02 pre amp. Peter
  3. I am the new owner of the water aged redwood Spector NS-5XL and dealing with Alan was a real pleasure. A gent. Peter
  4. The Overwater went to Promenade Music in Morecambe Rich. The G&L could be held for a month if you're interested Matt.
  5. It's been politely pointed out that bikes have no place in a for sale thread on BassChat. Pm me if interested. I'll have other (bass related) gear coming up in my clearout, once I fight my way into the spare room. You never know what I might find Peter
  6. Boss ME-20B and MXR M-80 D.I. The only reason these are up for sale is that my TC Electronics Rebelhead does for me what these did previously. Great units.
  7. The Warmoth Dark Star ACG.
  8. The Overwater went by way of a trade with the 62 re-issue P. That may seem odd but you really have to see and hear the P to understand The Maruszczyk Elwood: Tribute:
  9. No Overwater in my sig either
  10. Life changes and that is a good thing. I want to slim down my paraphernalia in life and will use this thread to list bass related and even some non bass related gear. Pictures to follow as the week progresses. First off, two of these 3 basses are up for sale (all 3 are available but if two sell I'll keep the 3rd). [b]Sold[/b]Mint, basically new condition G&L L-2000 Tribute with gig bag, £350 firm plus P&P. In natural with the usual G&L flexibility. Passive and active, slap swithch, pup switching and pup selection -[b]SOLD[/b] My Warmoth Darkstar 54P bass. Korina tung oiled body, birdseye maple Tru oiled neck with Dark Star pup and ACG02 pre amp. A real monster, £500 Marvellous Maruszczcyk Elwood Jazz 4. Passive with a zero fret and rosewood board. Trans cream ash body and maple neck. Sadowsky like quality for what I paid, £450 plus P&P. Tonal heaven with Bass Culture pups. I've a Boss M20B up for grabs as well as a MXR M80 D.I. £100 and £80 respectively. Peter
  11. There's a lot to be learn just 'playing' and experimenting with the pre. I wrote a guide or tips for setting up somewhere. Ere tis: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=41878&hl=acg01"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=41878&hl=acg01[/url] Peter
  12. Less than I used to be, and a fall from 20 to 8 probably highlights this. I dread to think how many basses have passed through my sticky mitts. Most of my basses now are keepers although due to developments I probably need to sched 2 more before stabilising. Mint G&L L2000 tribby anyone? The hard bit is deciding which other one is to go. 90 NT Thumb - no way P likewise Harlot - goes without saying Sadowsky MM, not now its returned to the fold Warmoth Darkstar ACG Hmm... Spector - nope Maruszczcyk Hmm... Apols for using this thread for musing. Pedro
  13. I owned this bass for a couple of weeks and it is indeed awesome. It converted me from 4 to 5 string as no other bass has managed to do, although I was at last ready for it. I've only one further thing to say, buy it! Peter
  14. Aye Dave but think of the weedy little buggers like me!
  15. I have now cast my eyes on this very bass. It's a bit amazing and bunny happy one you will be Quite stunning.
  16. I certainly will do Tom
  17. I've had a lot of pm's and some great offers but this is almost a done deal. If it doesn't happen I'll let you know. Thanks for the response. Peter
  18. Aha, a used ACG There's not too many of those around and I'd love to know which one. Peter
  19. Isn't it strange how things go? I love the Kinal, it's made me appreciate 5 string basses and wish that I'd never sold my 5 string Harlot. Still that was then and now is now. Russ has been in touch. He's missing his Kinal and reading between the lines I think he wishes he'd never parted with it. A part of me misses the MM IV too. So the Kinal is returning home having been much appreciated for a couple of weeks. I'm looking forward to being re-acquainted with the MM too. I've been looking at trades to re-introduce a 5 string into my armoury. I may have a lead. Funny old World isn't it.
  20. I've got a white one and mine is a superb example of a good P. You can't beat a good P Peter
  21. Thanks for all the interest but I'm 99% certain that I'm sorted for at least one 5 stringer I will get around to replying to all pm's once the anti spam system lets me. Peter
  22. This is a bit of a shot in the dark I know. Basically I've been playing a 5 string Kinal for the past couple of weeks and love it to bits. I traded it with a great BCer for a Marcus Miller IV fitted with a Sadowsky pre as he was looking for a MM. Well, he's missing the Kinal and I'm missing the MM too so as mad as it seems we are reversing our deal. I realise that I need a 5 string bass without any doubt - it's explained here I think: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=59453&hl=string"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...3&hl=string[/url] So I have a number of basses I'm willing to consider trading for the right 5 string. I have quite a few basses too so it may be that more than one of these may float your boat in a trade for a high end 5er. An ACG would be a definite high interest 5 string. Here's my possible trades, all 4 stringers obviously: Rickenbacker CS4001 in mint condition with silver Tolex case etc, a real beauty that I'd value well over £2k. 1990 Warwick Thumb NT in really good condition, what can I say except if Warwick means clubby necks to you, think again. Balances perfectly too. Value £800 Mint, virtually new G&L L2000 Tribute in natural, value £350. That's it, 3 x 4 stringers in any combination offered as a trade for a 5 string. High end considered but give me a pm and we can see. Peter
  23. [quote name='Mikey R' post='591505' date='Sep 6 2009, 05:02 PM']The guitarist from an old band scanned some of his old photos t'other day - this is one he found from about 10 years ago Im quite pleased with this shot [/quote] I agree, very 'rock' Mikey
  24. [quote name='niceguyhomer' post='591711' date='Sep 6 2009, 09:35 PM']Taken about 2am Sunday morning at JB Jazz & Blues Club near Oldham.. [/quote] You are so much more Blues than you are Soul Alan The singer spookily reminds me of an old sort of friend who sang the blues in Plymouth, Mick Taylor, sadly no longer with us.
