    I had one of these in the early 80's, fantastic bass but so heavy. Couldn't do 2 hours with one now, lady boy that I am

    Recently traded my EBS for this. Great amp, stunning condition but too complicated for a coffin dodger like me. [url="http://wzeu.search-results.com/r?t=p&d=apn&s=zuk&c=a&app=aoth&l=dis&o=1920&sv=0a652930&ip=5cead1c3&id=318E475B24E37A00927007287FD4F884&q=tc+stacatto+51&p=1&qs=121&ac=524&g=4003y2IP86wSKy&cu.wz=0&en=gs&io=0&ep=&eo=&b=a001&bc=&br=&tp=d&ec=10&pt=TC%20Electronic%20%7C%20Staccato%2751%20-%20the%20sound%20of%20a%20legend&ex=&url=&u=http://www.tcelectronic.com/staccato51.asp"]TC Electronic | Staccato ' 51 - the sound of a legend[/url] Includes amp itself, TC gig bag, speakon to speakon, plus the footswitch. Bass direct have 4 in at £750, not including the £40 gig bag and £135 footswitch, GAK have them at £969, not including bag, footswitch. It has two TINY chips in the red paint, front edge top, but can only see them up close. Amp, gig bag, footswitch, £550 collected from Wigan, or plus £15 courier. IF, and only IF , purchaser of the amp does not want the footswitch I will sell the footswitch seperately. So that would be; Amp plus gig bag. £500 collected, or plus £15 couriered. Footswitch, £80 posted. UK only please and no PAINPAL. Anybody wants to come round and try it, they are welcome.[attachment=112313:DSCF0002 (1).JPG][attachment=112314:DSCF0003 (1).JPG][attachment=112315:DSCF0005.JPG][attachment=112316:DSCF0006 (1).JPG][attachment=112317:DSCF0007 (1).JPG][attachment=112318:DSCF0008 (1).JPG] Sorry about crap photos, one appears to have been taken on the move

    Just bought an amp off Peter, fantastic guy to deal with, doesn't get any easier. Top comms, product and deal. All the best and thanks for everything, cheers, Karl.

    I wish I'b put gloves on before looking at those photos. Even the pictures make me feel unclean. Whose turn to get the pitchforks and burning lanterns, this abomination is surely the work of Beelzebub
  6. karlfer
    Finally, I understand. Many thanks folks, Karl.

    [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1341409813' post='1718524'] Doesn't that breach employment law on the grounds of being a) sexist and ageist? Just saying... Of course, I'm a bloke in my 30s who's about 8lb too heavy, with nay titties at all, so it might just be me being a bit grumpy. [/quote] And fat-ist

    Many thanks Mr. Rock sir. Changing from flats to rounds on a bass tonight, think I will need a little less concave as should be lower tension. I can always get Ritchie to sort it after I've cocked it up .
  9. karlfer
    I nearly always get Ritchie Thompson to do mine, because I've always been afraid to ask the following question; here goes, from Mr. Dumbass, turn the truss rod left = to loosen the truss rod = less concave neck. True or false? I can do all the other bits, it's always this bit that confuses me.

    No theory here I'm afraid. Started off metal, as I matured got into Jaco, got the tablature (quiet Bilbo please ) and learned so much doing it all very very slowly. More recently using Youtube to learn some of Mr. Sheehan's stuff. I will never be a patch on either of those chaps, but everything learned is a bit more enjoyment. Band I'm in are all 50's coffin dodgers,set up to gig once a fortnight, we will actually do over 40 gigs this year. I don't need to be Billy Sheehan to play live. Take your time and enjoy every little success. My greatest bass lesson learned? How to slide out of a bum note and get away with it. Mind, I've had a lot of practice with that . Fumps, I will guarentee you are a lot better than you think mate, all the best, Karl.

    Welcome Joel, enjoy the site and good luck with your new passion. Not actually bought any bass mag since the demises of Bass and Bass Guitarist. That was a sad day. May just have a look in the near future. All the best brave one, cheers, Karl.
  12. karlfer
    That'll be nope!
  13. karlfer
    Uhm, that didn't work out too well. Cheesy what ho?
  14. karlfer
    Bump to help sell, to stop it hurting me looking at this, because I can't afford it. No, I shall not man up, I will silently weep at life's frustrations . Wonderful, wonderful bass.
  15. karlfer
    The last few that have come up have been around the £400 mark.
  16. karlfer

    [quote name='patch006' timestamp='1341090029' post='1713828'] Read the manual Karl!!!!! tis easy! [/quote] Yup did that, several times . [quote name='whynot' timestamp='1341090126' post='1713831'] Press shift then turn the gain down to zero if I remember correctly, but a lot of people (including myself) think it sounds like a little compression is baked into the natural sound of the amp, plus that particular model is based on Roccos tone, and he likes compression. [/quote] Yup, think you are right, so think it's always going to have some compression.
  21. karlfer
    I have had this 3 days, its not new, but almost immaclate. With it's redness, flashing lights and super dooper footswitch it looks the poodles privates. How the *$%* do you turn the compressor off? I hate them . Expert advice please or this is going to be the shortest length of time I have EVER had an amp. Ta in advance, Karl.
  22. karlfer
    Any photos to see the condition please?
  23. karlfer
    Your round
  24. karlfer
    Somebody buy this for Gods sake, I do NOT need 2 amps Bump.

    [quote name='Graham' timestamp='1340016286' post='1697548'] Was that the one black, one sunburst? If so, I've already spoken to him and he too prefers a wider neck, cheers though. Gigged it again at the weekend and if a Bob G doesn't turn up or if I try one and don't like it I'll be happy to keep this, still looking to trade at the moment though. [/quote] Yes, it WAS
