Probably not the sort of thing you're after but for a cheap 'Jack of all trades' amp, I don't think you can beat the TC BH500. It's got dirt if you want it, spanky cleans if you don't - spectra comp for added fatness, tube drive and tweeter tone. Boat loads of tonal options!

SOLD
This is my VM jazz but now surplus to requirements as I have a jazz coming in on a trade!
Maple neck. Blocked and bound - nice frets and great action. Sounds great and the weight is really good - not too heavy at all, very comfy for my regular three hour rehearsals.
Only a couple of minor marks, otherwise in LOVELY condition.
£175 posted in the UK. I'm in London on business Tuesday so could bring it down with me too...
Cheers! -
Deposit taken.
Hi all,
My previous BG250 went faulty so I received this yesterday. Only taken out of the box to test it works (it does!) and back in the box as I no longer need it!
So, full two year warranty (amp shipped as a replacement from PMT so they have all my details) and basically as new for a tasty discount!
Cheers,
James -
Yeah, IMO the design is a bit of a pain - you have to watch SC as it'll cause clipping - 12 o clock is quite high, I use a dab, usually not over about 9 o clock and find that's loads!
-
Grab an Alto one from Gear4Music. Silly cheap and two year warranty. Done!
-
Almost impossible to prove or disprove but yes a dramatic change in extremes of temperature could cause it but my money would be on a sudden shock - enough to travel down the neck and cause movement enough to break the lacquer.
Edit - were the strings detuned? And was the hard case one where the neck is actually put under tension when shut? -
Nicely written post!
-
Smoooooth buyer! Top man, thanks mate!
-
Pics now added (properly, sorry I don't know what happened there!)

Could sell it (you'd get about 150) and buy a TC BG250? Not perfect but light and reasonably loud.

Probably not much call for that joke these days... -
No problems, but worth a search on here, lots of people with the same experience (and not just them to be fair)
-
Just a note to the seller, do NOT use Parcelforce as regardless of what their site says you will receive no cover at all if the instrument is damaged - regardless or hard case. Oh and they're sh*t too.

The Horns?

I was asking BRX to clarify, please don't speak to me in that way.

It was meant as a friendly dig in the ribs, as I hoped the smilie indicated. If I have caused offence then I offer my apologies. -
Well the replacement should hopefully get here tomorrow or Friday so fingers crossed!
My. BH500 is back but I've got man flu and gavebt been up to testing it. -
I'm chalking this one up as agree to disagree I'm afraid Milty
-
Actually, some good news - the best way to clean a speaker is to get a small dog to urinate on it!
-
Go to Tesco/Sainsbury/Whatever and buy 'Walnut Oil'. It's fantastic!
-
Oh yeah, looks like it's gone. Damn.
-
Agreed, don't wet it with anything, just dab off the excess.
Dogs. Yuk. -
Grab one from Thomann.de? They are only £38 or something daft!
-
Back in your box Wayne - that's twisting his words
It's a fair point that 'mainstream' music shops often stick to Gibson and Fedner plus a selection of pointy sh*t that the majority of buyers would at least recognise. BG, BD etc. do brands that I've never heard of with my status as 'enthusiastic amateur' - it's a different market but I know if I wanted to check out a whole range of instruments regardless of what was on the headstock, I'd look to one of those shops. -
Not at all fussed really Hiram. My ideal trade would see a decent wedge of cash in my pocket but am happy to look at passive and active and J-a-likes too.
Making your own preamp?
in Bass Guitars

Hi all
My Dad and I made an Ampmaker amp over Christmas and absolutely loved the whole experience. We now want to look at other projects and I really fancy making my own on board three band EQ and preamp (perhaps with a couple of switches for extra stuff too).
The patient bass that it will end up in is a Cort GB74 so a U-retro would drop straight in but we are dead keen to build something.
Does anyone know of any guides plans or kits we could look at?
Cheers!
James
