  1. I had a TB Raxx 12 or so years ago, great bits of kits!
  2. I'll have these please sir. PM incoming!
  3. You mean Ssoney M?
  4. The morale of most of these stories is 'Don't Wait!' I have a tendency of impulsive buying... if the bass doesn't pan out then you can always sell it on. I have a short list of basses I wish I never sold, but on the flip side, had I not sold them I wouldn't have the basses I now have which I will not sell! My main regrets are selling these ones: Jean Baudin's PacMan 9 string Conklin The Nordstrand NX6 A lovely Spector US NS6XL
  5. Hi all, I'm not 100% sure I want to sell this, so this is a bit of a feeler as it's a rather unique bass. This is a custom made Lakestone bass by UK luthier Tony Wright. This was originally made for the late Ian Holden, session player for the BBC orchestra and Dexie's Midnight Runners among others. The bass is in excellent condition and is of the highest build quality, it isn't light but it sounds superb! The full spec is as below, this came directly from Lakestone guitars: 1. The through neck is a rock maple and purple heart laminate. 2. Birdseye maple wings. 3. Two truss rods and reinforced with 3 carbon fibre rods for stability. 4. Gabon ebony fingerboard. 5. Headstock veneer is maccaser ebony. 6. Machine heads are Gotoh. 7. Pickups are from Kent Armstrong, actually wound by Aaron Armstrong for Overwater guitars. Lakestone had to get permission from Overwater to use them. 8. E.Q. is a 3 band Seymore Duncan. Coil tapped pickups. 9. The bridge was machined from solid brass and it was gold plated in the jewellery quarter in Birmingham. 10. The scale length is 36 inches. 11. Body core is mahogany. 12. Abalone inlay work on the headstock and truss cover. 13. Weight is 6.3kg (exactly 1 stone). 14. Spacing at the bridge is 18.5mm 15. Spacing at the nut is 8.5mm I'm based in Basildon, Essex and viewing is welcome. It could do with a new set of strings, I would have re-strung it myself but I dont have any strings suitable for a 36" bass. Any questions, please ask! Russ.
  6. That was mine! I've hunted long and hard for it since, it seems to have gone deep underground. I traded it for a 9 string ACG that I still have. Would absolutely love it back...
  7. Hi all, I've only recently bought this absolutely fantastic acoustic as I've wanted one for years! But some cabs have come up for sale here that I simply must have! So alas, this must go. This is a Godin A6 from the early 2000 era, for a near 20 year old guitar it is in fantastic condition with only one little zing on the top of the body, other than that it's pretty spot on! The action is super low, I play tap style so its spot on for me, I've strung it with very light Martin strings too to get the action close to 1.5mm at the 12th fret. The controls are volume, bass, mid, treble. It has an active invisible pickup with a fresh battery too. I don't really have any packaging for postage but if you REALLY want it posted I will wrap it in a annoyingly large amount of bubble wrap, I can also remove the neck for extra safety. Any questions, please ask! Russ.
  8. New photos added and a price drop to £310! Need this gone. I have another two PJB 47 Cabs up for sale too, if anyone wants all three then we can talk! Only selling these as I've not bought a PJB 12B and 6T cab. Russ.
  9. Hi all, I very recently bought two of these absolutely mint cabs from a fellow BassChatter, however another BassChatter has just listed the cabs I've been after for a while, so these must go to fund those as I've now committed to buying them! I'm selling two of these cabs, I'm offering them out at £225 each collected, or £245 each posted. If you want both of them, then I'll do the pair for £440 collected or £480 posted. These cabs came from Bass Direct less than 2 months ago and are still listed at £375 a piece on their website. My price is 40% off the new price and these are seriously in mint condition, fully boxed with all paper work and covers etc. Collection is preferred (from Basildon, Essex) but as they are both boxed, I'm happy enough to post. Any questions, please ask! Russ.
  10. The temptation!!!! Used to love mine when I had one nearly 15 years ago!
  11. Bought an assorted bag of strings from Mr HellZero for pretty much the cost of postage! Another smooth and easy purchase, never any issues with Tony! Though I fear our long run of faultless trades/purchases may have a door slammed in its face soon due to the filth they call Brexit... We shall have to turn to smuggling!
  12. Annoying nice! PM'd sir.
  13. Weight is 54lb Dimensions are 16" x 17" x 28" Direct from the PJB website so it should all be 100% accurate!
  14. Hi all, I've recently bought two PJB 47 cabs from a fellow Basschatter, which for me is a slightly more useful/modular set up, so with that in mind my PJB 8B neo is up for sale! (The one below on the right! The other was traded some months ago). These cabs are fantastic. The punch and clarity are simply excellent, the sound output is transparent and crisp with projection better than you would expect for eight 5 inch speakers. The cab is 400w at 4 ohms and is capable of some serious volume. I've used many a cab over the years and for me, the sound quality, compact size, volume and transparency of PJB cabs cannot be beaten. This cab is in excellent condition and will come with the PJB cover, it has two solid castors and an extendable handle (which I will miss greatly!) to allow you to wheel it around with ease. These cabs were around £860ish new, so I'm asking a fairly firm £340 for this. I'm based in Basildon, Essex and collection is preferred, though we can talk postage options if absolutely needed. I will post some better pictures tomorrow. Any questions, please shout! PRICE DROP TO A FIRM £310!!!
  15. It's getting there...!
  16. @Simonsbass FYI - The neck definitely isn't wenge, it looks like stained maple as per the spec sheet. The fretboard is wenge, you can see the fretboard wood looks nothing like the neck wood. Pretty sure the spec sheet is correct sir!
  17. Super tempted, though I have just bought two PJB cabs yesterday... If these are still here in a week or so I might give you a shout. For the record, Accugroove make fecking awesome cabs!
  18. How dare you... These Wicks are just lully!
  19. I know beauty is subjective, but this is about the ugliest thing I've seen!
  20. Just got home from collecting two PJB 47 cabs from Daryl... A faultless transaction, the cabs are in exceptional condition! Excellent seller, I'd certainly recommend Daryl and be more than happy to buy from him again! Top work sir, your cabs have found a good long term home with me! Russ.
  21. Had a very very similar G4M SubZero power amp, it was VERY noisy... Not a fan of SubZero gear to be honest. Use that cash to buy a better pre-owned one.
