Selling my Ashdown Tourbus 10, another of my legendary impulse purchases, cracking little 10 watt amp weighing approx 4.5kg

Here is some borrowed sales blurb:

[font="Arial Black"][b]Great for the aspiring pro, Ashdown's TourBus 10 is a bass practice amp with volume, bass and treble controls, a headphone socket for silent practice, and a CD/MP3 input so you can play along with your favourite band. A rugged 6.5" driver delivers a surprisingly potent tone. [/b][/font]

I am only selling this because it was superceded by my Line6 110 several months back and has not been used since.

I have the original receipt and manual, but not the original box.

The amp is in excellent condition, only used around the house.

Looking for £30 picked up from Ipswich or Stowmarket, if you want it delivered I would ask for £5 towards costs and I will cover the rest.

Thanks

SOLD

I purchased this unit in January of this year to record to record a gig, work had decided to let us play at the staff Xmas party, brave I know.

Link to the Tascam website page for this item is [url="http://www.tascam.com/products/gt-r1.html"]here[/url].

The sound quality on the recordings is great, so much so that our lead guitarist on the night bought one of his own.

The unit has been used a handful of times since then around the house for silent practice.

I kept the box that I received it in and still have all manuals, the battery, 1GB SD card (will be wiped before I send it out, I couldn't do it to you) and the protective carry wallet.

The condition of the unit itself is excellent, pretty much near mint, it still has the protective plastic cover on the screen.

Price for this is £165 delivered, payment by bank transfer or any other means that does not hit me with charges!

Thanks

Bump for £250 delivered or £230 collected.

If it doesnt sell here at this price I might even try a defret on it!

[quote name='kingofthestuntmen' post='867247' date='Jun 14 2010, 06:09 PM']Now, I've never been there but, having read the various posts on here over the years, my understanding was that the Bass Cellar was Mos Eisley.... If you know what I mean..?[/quote]

A wretched hive of scum and villainy??

I went to see Kyle Eastwood on Friday and it just made me think that I would have loved to learn the bass "properly", by that I mean fully rounded approach to learning, technique, theory, history.

I was reminded me of the bit in Empire Strikes Back where Luke Skywalker went to see Yoda to learn about the force, I need to do that bit of jogging through a forest performing somersaults with a bass equivalent of yoda in my rucksack.

So my questions to you all are who or what are the bass equivalent of these Star Wars related things, I have had my go:

Who is Yoda? -

Who is Darth Vader? - Steve Vai

Who is Ben Kenobi? - James Jamerson "Use the hook Luke"

Where is Dagobah? -

What is the lightsabre? - Fender Precision

What is the Death Star - Bass Cellar

BUMP

Red Dead is superb, bought it at the weekend.

Not sure whats going on with multplayer though, do I shoot anything that moves or get a posse together.

Have you "skinned your horse" yet, not a euphamism!

[quote name='Doddy' post='856078' date='Jun 3 2010, 01:39 PM']Alternatively,you could get a TC Polytune [/quote]

I downloaded the Polytune app for the iPhone lastnight, very impressive.

Thanks for all your suggestions, I am noticing an alcohol theme in this thread and I like it alot!

Plenty to consider here, much appreciated.

Having managed to stay employed with the same company for the last ten years , I qualify for the 10 year £150 gift.

In terms of bass related gear, what would you spend £150 on?

I have a Geddy Lee Jazz which has been fitted with roundwounds since I have had it.

I want to give it a setup and new strings, my question is does anybody have any particular recommendations for suitable strings?

Cheers

I am selling my Dean Jeff Berlin Basic Bass, I bought roughly one year ago from BassMerchant in Colchester. It is a great little bass, I chose it for the dimensions, I had previously used a shortscale (Squier Bronco) and chose this because the bridge is set lower in the body making the neck seem a little bit shorter than ordinary full size basses.

Dean Website info [url="http://www.deanguitars.com/jeff_berlin.php"]here[/url]

I have only used this bass in my spare room (I only ever play with myself ) it is in excellent condition, no dints, bumps or bucklerash. Reason for sale is that I have just purchased a Sterling Ray34 and I dont see myself using anything else for a while, my rampant GAS is under control!

[color="#FF0000"][b]This bass is for sale at £250 delivered £230 picked-up.[/b][/color]

Struggling to find a price to suit you guys so stuck this on [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Dean-Jeff-Berlin-Signature-Bass-Excellent-Condition-/230487416909?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item35aa1ee04d"]eBay[/url]

Thanks

I have my Bass Pod XT Live For Sale.

I bought it last year when I was looking for a wah pedal, my thinking was why not spend a bit more and get all the other lovely effects as well. However I have since found that as nice as it is having all the effects I am still only using the auto wah, so it might as well go, saving me some floor space and getting me some more GAS tokens. smile.gif

The unit has only been used infrequently and only in my spare room it is in excellent condition, controls show none of the usual wear and tear.

I have all the paperwork, box and packaging, so it will arrive to you as new.

If you are looking to buy the price is £150 delivered, £140 pickup

[quote name='dave_bass5' post='850308' date='May 28 2010, 01:43 PM']Mine is also like that.[/quote]

So I should assume that this is a feature and not something that needs changing?

I have just bought a Ray34, I am really pleased with it, however I have one question:

The nut doesnt sit flat on mine, the E string side seems a couple of mill higher than the G. This makes the E string sit higher than the other strings I have adjusted the action on that string and it now seems fine. From what I can see the nut on mine looks similar to the OP's, almost a wedge shape is this normal? Apologies for the hijack and also if the question is a bit daft.

Price drop to £370 bump

If nothing happens this time I am putting it in the loft.

The first bass I bought was the Dean Jeff Berlin Basic Bass, I really like it, it feels very confortable to play. One thing I noticed is that although it is a full scale bass it is a good couple of inches shorter than a Fender Jazz or Precision.

The last bass I bought was a Yamaha RBX A2 from Redstriper on this forum, again a great bass but similar in size and proportion to the Dean.

Do basses of this size have a name, are they recognised as a seperate sized bass?

If not do you know of any other manufacturers that produce basses to a similar size?

I recently purchased Steve's Yamaha RBX A2 bass.

I am very pleased with the bass, it is in excellent condition, better than described!

It arrived in double quick time, I paid for it Wednesday night and it arrived Friday lunchtime, very well packed too.

This was a great transaction for me, Steve is a great guy to deal with, buy with confidence.

BUMP
