    [quote name='mrcreamy' timestamp='1412865087' post='2572793'] This still for sale? [/quote] You might be better off sending him a private message, he's not been on the site since July 29th. Good luck.

    Really sorry to hear about this Chris, what happened with the speakers? I ask out of concern, as you bought this cab off me just over 2 years ago, and Schroe's are kinda legendary with their build quality.

    Stunning

    I reduced it by £100 to £700 collected, £730 UK mainland couriered. I have a few hundred quid to top it up as part ex against something special (including from Santa Anna by pm). Sorry Mods, edit that if not allowed. Happy to look at a jazz kinda thing plus couple hundred my way. Can't do anymore, so I've put a couple of bids in on necks on FEEBay, ending next week. Can't have it sat doing nowt, or not selling

    Nice and simple. Bit like me really.

    Carvin inform me that this head can be used without speakers. I understand that is important to some folk. Just a little reminder; down to £300 collected, £315 couriered mainland UK

    [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1412617458' post='2570455'] Just don't turn it past 9 o'clock then! [/quote] I changed the valves Anyway, long gone. I couldn't get it to sound how I wanted it to, at too many venues.

    Why is this still here?

    Carvin's no good to you Chris, only 300 watt at 8 ohms. I don't really know of many that pump out big at 8 ohms, even the modern stuff. Good luck.

    BUY MY CARVIN (shameless plug over). I did actually try a TH500 last week (as my Carvin had been sold, then the FEEBayer failed to turn up yesterday ). The TH500 sounded wonderful but it was only through an Aguilar 1 x 12 which I assume was 8 ohms. I had to crank the master and gain both to about 3 0'clock to get anywhere near gigging volume. The Carvin rarely goes much past 9 o'clock on either, so it put big doubts in my mind about gigging the TH, so LUCKILY as it turned out, I didn't buy it. The Orange Terror 500 is not the most versatile BUT!!!! it has a 40hm/8ohm switch on the back, so you can use it fully at 8ohms! If you get one, change the pre amp valves, IMO, the gain with the original tubes just sounds horrible after about 9 0.clock. Good luck, Chris, we have so much choice now

    [quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1412541306' post='2569826'] Dammit man, I won't do this again! I have enough scars from the last bass war [/quote] My nerves will never be the same. Quiet Kevsy, you are getting bumps

    [quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1412538928' post='2569786'] I'm tempted to offer a trade too..I'm after a Stingray unfortunately could be tempted by this though... [/quote] Back off JBF, I was here first
  16. karlfer
    Argh, these critters are amazing. Don't suppose any trades? Especially of the £500 to you, plus my La Cabronita Porazzo Tribute? Had to ask and good luck anyway.
  17. karlfer
    Many thanks for that Sean, much better than my windbag ramblings.

    Thanks Raslee, appreciated. This head was supposedly bought last Wednesday by a FEEBayer. I have waited in all day, it's now 3 hours past his arrival time, he ain't answering texts/phone/email, so I think I can assume the worst . So, [size=5][b][color=#ff0000]Now reduced to £300 collected from Wigan, £315 insured courier mainland UK.[/color][/b][/size] [size=5][size=3][size=4]Anything less than that I might as well just keep it as back up.[/size][/size][/size] [size=5][size=3][size=4]Happy to listen to possible trades though.[/size][/size][/size] [size=5][size=3][size=4]Cheers,[/size][/size][/size] [size=5][size=3][size=4]Mr. Pigged Off,[/size][/size][/size] [size=5][size=3][size=4]Wigan.[/size][/size][/size] [size=5][size=3][size=4][b]PS, in better condition than many demo heads I have seen.[/b][/size][/size][/size]

    Very nice bass. The one I had was "the best made bass i have ever seen", quote, my luthier, Richie Tomson. Usually a man of few words.

    [quote name='bagsieblue' timestamp='1412426568' post='2568838'] Blimey....bargain, strangely and strongly attracted to this. I blooming' love it. Agreed on times being hard - I've had a few up on here recently and not sold. So many amazing basses at amazing prices. [/quote] So true, Just wish your Infinity was a 4. See ya soon fella.

    There are a couple of articles, pinned somewhere. Best thing I find is upload your photos to Photobucket, then, open your photo up on there. When you do that , there are 4 rectangular boxes to the right of the chosen photo. Click on the bottom one of the 4 rectangular boxes, it will say copied. Then paste the photo into your advert. Repeat with other photos. Good luck. EDIT, found one of the how to's, there ya go [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/196300-importing-a-photo-to-basschat/"]Importing a photo to Basschat[/url]

    Amp advice?

    karlfer replied to John_P's topic in Amps and Cabs

    [quote name='BassBunny' timestamp='1412426527' post='2568837'] Carvin are "Absolutely Stonkin Amps". Drew at Manchester Bass Lounge has a 2nd Hand BX500 For Sale at £240, which is a steal. Virtually identical to Karl's BX700 except it doesn't go down to 2 Ohms. That coupled to a decent Cab would give you everything you need, and more. [/quote] And the 500 doesn't have the red backlighting, which is very handy on a dark stage. And the 500 isn't quite as powerful at 4 ohms, although the reality is only a couple of db.

    Sod it, cash price reduced to £700 collected , £730 couriered mainland UK, until I decide whether to get a new neck. TRADE valuation stays the same. Me reducing something, times ARE hard , I can make Scots and Yorkshiremen look generous* * Light hearted comment, no offense intended

    Amp advice?

    karlfer replied to John_P's topic in Amps and Cabs

    [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1412424491' post='2568819'] A lot of bass players are looking for more than just volume now. They want the sound AND volume and winding something up as loud as poss to get thru a mix... with little or no ability to shape that sound as you are maxxed up is why people look at 350w in 8 type amps. If gtrs are willing to drive smaller combos hard, ...and even old Boogies etc got very loud, then that bodes well for the band because they are looking and thinking about the band sound rather than their own sound and everyone else having to fit with it...or not, as it invaribly turned out [/quote] This.

    Welcome to Basschat Bassmanheath. Great gear but , just to give you some advice, folk aren't going to spend £1400 based on your advert. Follows a link to my recent advert (it's getting picked up tomorrow). [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/245880-carvin-bx700-headswitchable-valve-or-ss-pre-amp-700w2ohms-550-watt4ohms/"]Carvin BX700 head,switchable valve or ss pre amp, 700w@2ohms, 550 watt@4ohms.[/url] Mine is not a perfect ad, but hopefully it will give you an idea of what the buying public look at. Good luck with your sale.
