  1. A "you'll regret it " bump . By the way peeps Lloyd is a top class dude, this will be some bass. Get in before he changes his mind. Karl.
  2. Well the lead will be bloody good (somebody had to!)
  3. Even better cabs than mine and lighter to carry (and courier). Bah humbug bump
  4. PM replied, many thanks.
  5. Klystron 500, subtle as a flying mallet Steve
  6. Wish I was closer. I would have sold my Mother and the dog to get one of these when I was a nipper. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330689151589?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
  7. Lloyd's a top fella Steve. It was him I got my Terror/SP212 off. And he's on the home page of NorthWest bands (bassist for Phoenix). I'm not worthy. Good luck, I'm still thinking very strongly about your offer. Karl.
  8. Different one Sam, it's not number 142
  9. I had a Geddy and the big differences to other 70's type jazzes were the superb slim neck, Badass, and the very "growly" pups.
  10. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1329611944' post='1544955'] Both cabs side by side on the floor and the amp on top in the middle? Just a thought..... [/quote] Thanks Walbassist but most places we play don't have enough room for one cab side by side
  11. First series, made in UK, rectangular handles. Both in excellent condition, with a little paint off couple of corners. Please read my feedback near the bottom ABM Mini48, 600 watts, 8 ohms, 4 x 8, 30kg, £150+£25 courier (ON HOLD) ABM Compact 115 300 watts, 8 ohms, 1 x 15, 20 kg, £150 +£20 courier. I bought the 115 as an ABM Mini, but the dimensions of the cab don't match that on the Ashdown website, so for reference the dimensions of the ABM 115 are as follows. Width 610, height 490, depth 350. Dimensions of the 48, Width 474, height 474, depth 335. Either will easily fit in the boot of a Vauxhall Tigra, leaving enough room for an Orange Bass Terror Head, sports bag with leads etc,Gamma pad and 2 bass stands!

  12. I don't give a monkey's wang what somebody thinks when I'm trying out a bass as I'm just mediocre. The most important thing for me is to slowly and accurately fret EVERY single note on the fretboard, form open E to highest D# (whaddya mean some basses have more than 4 strings and 20 frets ) This done both accoustically and amplified. If that's ok, next I'll check the electrics. If they are ok, I'll start to worry about tone and how it feels. Karl.
  13. Try Yamaha Attitude page on Facebook. Link should be below. Also search out the member known as Stockholm Syndrome. He is a member of a Warwick site and had an interest in the X. These basses are the most powerful known to mankind (well, me anyway ). Good luck. http://www.facebook.com/pages/BBGM/21535486327#!/groups/294500090592/
  14. [quote name='billyapple' timestamp='1329609204' post='1544931'] Sir, I see you are interested in my bass, you are clearly a man of style and taste. Perhaps I could interest you in this exclusive item..... [/quote] Don't let my mother see this
  15. £12k, can buy a job for life for that. Wouldn't use it on any bass. Frankly a Jedson was wasted on me
  16. Got me replanning the house now
  17. Aha [quote name='mart' timestamp='1329486949' post='1543229'] It's nice that he can quote such positive feedback from the ebayer called "skyshook". [/quote]
  18. Skyshook is one of his feedbackers, I've seen that moniker somewhere lately
  19. [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1329596787' post='1544788'] PM'd back Barry. I'm afraid I don't think is the sort of cab you are after [/quote] Bump for a credit to Basschat's honesty.
  20. Bugger, saw "Bassassin" and got all excited
  21. OK, I absolutely adore the sound of this amp, but if you look at the photos in the 1st post, I cant live with the amp overhanging. Sad but true . My initial thought was sell the amp. That is still an option. I am also now thinking sell both cabs, please see seperate post. Cheers, Karl.
  22. I had one of the original ABM 300's and sold it a few years ago when I was skint. Best amp I've ever had in 35 years of on/off gigging. Rock solid, reliable, great tonal variation. I like old school (think JPJ, Zep 11), not surprisingly. They do that very well. Equally, my current ABM Klystron sounds superb when I come to do Billy Sheehan hammers, pulls, trips, harmonics, chords (just a pity it doesn't fit on my mini cabs .
  23. Brilliant, well done Rob. I'm one who is delighted to still be able to play the pub gigs at my age. What you have achieved is amazing and you're gonna have a blast. Jealous to death but gives truth to the "don't stop believing" Well done again. Karl.
  24. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1329563201' post='1544236'] For a gigging bassist, I`d suggest a third option: Good quality bass, decent backup bass, good quality high wattage amp. [/quote] Hear hear, well said that man!
