  1. No nothing written in it.Would guess built between 1920's-1960's but is only a guess.Laminated i think.Top and back are curved,soz if not much help.More pics here if it helps

    [quote name='overwater#1' post='256568' date='Aug 6 2008, 06:23 PM']Is it a laminated bass, or solid timber? Are there any makers names inside, country of origin, or date?[/quote]

  2. Selling this double bass ,is quite old ,very solid body has had cracks repaired in neck many years ago all very stable and holds tune well,will stand up to gigging.
    anyone wants to give it a try you're welcome to come round ,i'm about 12 miles south of Chester

    Sorry colour hasn't come out great on pics,but they should give you an idea.
    Thanks
    Pete

  3. Pm replied to MB-1

    Nick thanks so much for the info,an '85 it is!

    Not sure what Price these are going for with a case,so unless someone tells me i'm open to fair offers.

    Anyone is welcome to come an view (except timewasters of course :huh:
    Thanks

  4. Saw this while perusing to get an idea of jaydee prices ...not seen one before like it....

  5. Series 2 (has the funk groove between the neck and front pick up)Cherry red finish,lovely dark walnut facings on front of headstock,i think is an 85 model.
    Some damage to finish by jack socket where it looks like a previous owner had an accident with the jack plug in.Consequently it has a square chrome plate around jack socket.
    Also the wood pickup cover has worn thru on the bridge pick up by what looks like somebody digging in their thumbnail.
    Otherwise this is a lovely bass and it sounds and looks wicked!!!
    The Aluminium flightcase is a neat one (doesn't weigh a ton!)
    get in touch if interested will get some pics up soon Cheers

  6. [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='163686' date='Mar 26 2008, 12:30 PM']This was 'the one' for me.. Stolen from our studio in 1993 and I've missed it ever since!

    1978 Wal Pro2e.. I still have one now but I miss this one like mad for some reason...[/quote]


    Ba****ds! Must of been awful .

    I also was a complete arsewipe when i sold my favourite fretless!! :)

  7. I thought it to be quiet myself,i have the noise reduction in,i never thought about them all being different before,would there be a difference in different examples do you think?
    Was quieter than the eden nav and possibly the ashdown rpm in my opinion and was one of the reasons i wanted to keep it.


    [quote name='crez5150' post='161780' date='Mar 22 2008, 01:04 PM']How noisy is this unit.... I've tried 3 others of these and they have all been a bit too noisy when recording...[/quote]

  8. [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='161710' date='Mar 22 2008, 10:35 AM']this would be a nice catch for a collector! :)[/quote]
    Cheers Kiwi,
    would be a great addition to any rig /combo whatever,definitely wouldn't sell this if i didn't have to.

  9. Not everyday these come along for sale ,all working great,sweet sounding (good components :) )think they cost about £2k when they came out .
    Includes the lovely pedal board which all lights up too.
    Not sure what to ask for it as i not seen any for sale how does £360 sound?(pm me if you know better)
    Cab be rack mounted but doesn't have the rack ears currently.
    Is the model with the logo that lights up (as opposed to the badge)Apparently came from Pink Floyd's studio.(i think they had about 3 or 4 think the guy they had on bass used them too)
    Will get a pic up soon.
    Whoever buys this will not be sorry it's a great ,useful piece.
    Thanks
    Pete

  10. I'll answer for him as i had one,and yes you can to both. :)




    [quote name='ped' post='150223' date='Mar 3 2008, 11:17 AM']Cool bit of kit. Quick question - is it possible to use it with headphones without a power amp attached, so just on its own? Is this also possible with the DI?

    I have skim read le manuel but I am at work so can't really dive in as much as I would like!!!

    Cheers

  11. FWIW I've played Ron's Stingray 5 on a number of occasions and it's an excellent playing and sounding bass




    [quote name='wal4string' post='148309' date='Feb 28 2008, 11:23 AM']Hi NJ,
    A natural Stingray would be fine, any short fall in the value I would of course like in money.

    Cheers

  12. good condition cool for anyone wishing to have a go at fretless or a back up to save your board on the more expensive one!!
    I'll get a pic up sometime and check /treat the fingerboard too!!.£60 anyone??

  13. 90's Rackmount unit fairly good condition,all working,
    pretty decent quality chorus,tremolo,flanger/phasers,reverbs (big to room/plates/gated),delays.
    you can add a footswitch (and choose six i think it is off the pedal)
    £40 anyone??
    EDIT: NOW £35
