[quote name='Big Bass Man' timestamp='1429439290' post='2751329'] Just buy it Pete then there's no more regret ha ha!! You can't beat a Lakland ! GLWTS Cheers! [/quote] Hi Nick, I'm afraid my bass purchasing budget has maxed out for a while

Is this the Joe Osborn signature model? If so it will be a cracking bass with superb build quality. I had one and have always regretted selling it. Good luck with your sale.

Hi Rich. Best of luck with your sale!

Bump

I used to have one of these and I have to say it was a very playable instrument. The neck was really comfortable and, for the money, they are really outstanding value. I put a Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder in it and it absolutely rocked! GLWTS.

Easter Bunny bump

Hi Tony. I've gone for the Bergantino CN212. It's a cracking cab and I ran my DB751 through it at it's first gig last Saturday. Very punchy sound and bags of volume. It only weighs about the same as one GS112 but, as it has two handles, it forces me to use both hands to lift it, which is much easier on my injured shoulder. At something like 47lbs it's very light for a 2x12. I really liked the sound of my GS112s and I had to think long and hard about replacing them. It was a leap of faith to get the Berg, but I think I can justify it to myself. Cheers Pete

Had a rethink on the price I was asking - now £600 for the pair.

Yes, they have a really warm tone to them - especially when stacked. With 600 watts at 4 ohms they've plenty of headroom too.

Can't change the original value but after reconsideration I think [b]£600 is more realistic.[/b] Health problems are forcing me down the Neo route so, reluctantly, these two cabs will have to go. As a stack they make a great combination with loads of 'old school' tone. They are in excellent condition with no damage to the felt covers and come with their Aguilar padded covers. As a total package they would cost you £1200 new. Each cab is 8 ohms and rated at 300 watts. Due to size and weight I don't want to use a courier, so pick up is preferred although I am willing to meet up within a radius of 75 miles from Leeds for the cost of the fuel. Sorry but I'm not after any trades.

That music is beautiful. Shame you are so far away and all I have to trade is a GS112

I used to have one of these. Great bass and it's a steal at that price. I think I paid about £1400 for mine. GLWTS

Sunday bump.

Weight has never been an issue with my NV412. It's tall enough to lean against the back of an estate car (with a bit of carpet to protect the finish and help the slide) then up she goes - easy peasy. As it has tilt back wheels it's easier to move than a 4x10. Good luck with the sale. Bergantino make great cabs.

Thanks, Nick. Very good of you to say so.

[quote name='Karl Derrick' timestamp='1426495731' post='2718400'] What's the weight of the Bass please? [/quote] According to our bathroom scales it's spot on 8lbs. Feels a bit lighter than some of my other Jazz basses.

Where are you based?

Thanks, Marc S. She looks stunning and sounds just as good! I'll post the weight of it later today

Courier option added
