I have a fretless version of this... and no money...

You couldn't spend the asking price more effectively; these are absolutely stunning basses play fabulously and with a massive range of tones.

Not allowed to buy a bike (or even say it out loud) either... Who ever buys this will be well pleased...

Hi there, if it helps I think Thornybank has a CL and 410HLF available. Wierd how, without warning, the 'valvey goodness' fairy daubs you right in!!

Just bought some machine heads totally cool totally easy... couldn't be better

PM'd

On a completely different tack... lightweight rig...Acoustic Image Focus 2 (600W @ 4Ohms...5lbs!!:with bag) and Sound Tech ND410s (1200W 4Ohms: 23KG!!!) with cover and some cash... if you don't ask...

I have a 410 from this series (thank you again Dood...) and they are amazing cabs, light, deep sounding (way beyond what you'd think), very articulate and they go [i][b]loud[/b][/i] (very efficient) [b][i]and[/i][/b] they take a beating... Running a Fender TB-1200 into mine at about 50%...

GLWTS

Used one of these with the matching SVT 210 and 115 in the main hall at Butlitz Skegness (2000 seater with a BIG stage) and it was [i][b]absolutely[/b][/i] on the money as a stage sound... great amps. GLWTS

Lovely... if you decide the ONLY solution is free long term storage in Scotland I'd be happy to take the job on...

Hello, welcome aboard... sounds like a nice rig... as you've said there are some marks and the covers are no longer 'as new' a couple of pics would definitely help ease things along... as an aside I have a Tech Soundsystems (Tecamp before the Flood...) ND410S and the quality is top notch; the RH series need no input from me...hope all goes well.

Phew it was a September make and i'm a February '57 boy...
Okay, okay...don't have the wherewithall anyway; but if [i][b]anything[/b][/i] ever justified the spend... sublime.
If this is your choice to go I actually don't want to see what you're keeping in case I have a fit...

This plus bass plus lead: rock job done.
If you want the sound; buy the gear!
Best of luck.

Currently use a Wizzy 110 (paid at least this....) with an AI Clarus in reherasal settings, for a 110 it's SUPERB, had a 112EXL which was [i][b]more[/b][/i]... got no pennies or I would...EA make are great boxes, do way more than you'd think for the size... all with 5 active string Jazz and Fretless in electric rock settings with drummer who has defective volume control... (do they all?)

Beany Bears... http://www.fanpop.com/clubs/beanie-babies/images/278292/title/beanie-bears-photo (not my collection I hasten to add)

by way of a well earned bump...

A lot of the 301's sound is the original Cerwin Vega (red cambric surround) driver, tried the boxes I've had (where the drivers came blown: couldn't find a replacement/recone for love nor money) with others but never the smooth sound... Used a 320 with a 406, 370 with a 301 and 406 and a 220 with all sorts of cabs... but never had a 408 (4x15) band I used to go and see in Glasgow in the 80's (Chou Pharot) used the 320/408 combination... mental in a pub setting!!!
Keep the faith.

You Sir, are absolutely correct!

Hi there, bought one of these new in the day (940? 924DS (Dark Stain)... more expensive than a Fender (probably due to the through-neck construction)! Great fretless tone.. the pups are a single coil design, despite the size, hence the hum... just like a Jazz. Great playing bass, really fast neck with an ebony board. Lovely, great value at the asking price.

OOps, spilt my... beer... stunning bass at a VERY, VERY good price... if you'd like the contents of my garage (have to double check but I believe an excellent collection of Beany Bears and other houshold 'essesntials' would be available), happy to deliver... [i][b] anywhere[/b][/i].

Gorgeous bass.

Currently custodian of a TB-1200 head... all I ever wanted was a Bassman that was 1. Loud enough for all applications: 2. a tube head where the big bottles didn't go soft in the second set and so lose definition/crispness... BINGO
Newer Fender amps really have come a long, long way.

If micro/lightwieght and 'the sound or your bass' are the pre-requisites then try an Acoustic Image head.. not cheap, but try one and you'll get why... I use the Clarus (300W into 2 Ohms minimum, 200w into 4 and 120 into 8: 5lbs) with an EA Wizzy 110 for rehearsals/practice/studio and the Focus 2 (600W 4 ohms: 5lbs) with a Sound Tech NS410S (4Ohms: 103dB eff,) for bigger stuff.
Hell in a handbag....

Not strictly 100W but a Bassman 135 is the same power tube complement as the 100, bit cleaner for longer... as always it depends on the cab/s efficiency... 100w tube head with a good 215 goes a looooonnngg way.

Or just buy an SVT Classic.. there, said it.... you know it makes very loud/heavy sense...

Peavey Tour 700 is a cracking bit of kit, used it with 2x 15 Marshall 1550s or a Sound Tech NS410s... PLENTY... Not too heavy but a real punch at volume,

What a sensible chap....

OK if we include transport no problem (you need a van) then my old Trace 1812 stack. Bottom side of the Bi-amp is an 18" (Fane Colossus: ported), 15" (Celestion Powercel: sealed) and Hi-pass handled by a 12" (RCF) in a flare. All in one box, 55" tall and just over 110Kg (made from HDF: later 18mm Birch ply ones I had were lighter). 'Course you need an AH500 to run it (23Kg).. When I bought my original ones in '84 I had Trace flight case them...stairs NOT an option for one person...
So BEST ever was two of the above at a time :
Now you see where the van came in...

I have a Fretless version of this... you cannot spend your hard earned pennies more effectively. The asymetric neck is a joy, they balance perfectly and the tone range (quasi para) is superb, very similar in capability to a Wal but the East 5 pot option has more range; offers a killer J bass sound. Into a desk these are sublime.

You sir are a BAD MAN ... the bass on the other hand is an angel ... the only other info I'd need is where to get the money to buy it... For me, I own an ACG Recurve, the shape is perfect and blows the Rob Allens out of the water. Tried the 'andydye' solution... got thrashed... oh well.

Best of luck. Stunning looking bass.
