    I bought a Crest CA9 years ago, after reading loads up on it. It’s mainly beloved over on Talkbass- though is very heavy. Bought it cheapish, to try out and scratch the proverbial itch. I’ve had loads of power amps over the years, and it’s absolutely great on bass. There are loads of mentions about the reasoning behind this- that it’s not a flat sound, and by a sort of quirk in the design, works well on bass guitar. I bought it with the view of being sceptical, and then moving it on, but it’s really good. The only issue is the weight, and also the fact that it’s very deep in size- meaning you have to look for a suitable rack. I found a 2U Boschma rack on their site- very heavy duty moulded plastic one. But I’m not sure that they’re still in business or not. I use it with a Sonic Farm mic pre In front of it, and sounds really good

    That’s fine. I’m in no rush, as I still take it out as a backup . Thanks for replying though- some don’t. What did you end up getting by the way? I’m such a gear nerd- he he Paul

    Sounds like a plan. Nik was interested, but he’s decided on something else now. Let me know guys Paul

    You had one of those a few years ago didn’t you? As did I. Debating whether to get another again- they are awesome amps

    If I could sell my bass, this is one of two that I pick from to replace it. These are great- just got a Japanese Metro R24 Modern in on a trade. Quality wise, there’s not a fag paper’s difference between the US ones. As I said before- it’s a difficult time to sell at the moment. Someone’s even started a thread about it. This bass is really as good as it gets if you’re after a 5 active Jazz.

    This bass is lovely. Just shows how tight things are for most folk. Far better that the German ones I’d say

    Same here. Ive been running- bass into small board with SFX 2 band EQ, compressor, Sonic Farm, then power amp and speakers- lovely sound, with hardly any EQ. The Caveman has been on my radar, but unsure if to spend the money on something that might not make a lot of difference. The bass pre-amp rabbit hole you can go down is massive, if you had the funds

    I play in a Northern Soul band, and this is one of the ones right near the end. I mix about with the line a bit, as you do, and it always goes down well

    What’s the model called with the 10 and 2x6 speakers called? It’s the baby of the 1516, but can’t find the model name

    Rob is great- I love his playing. Came from good stock too. Also echo what’s been said about- so inventive with his playing

    Me too.. looking forward to pictures

    Just seen on Facebook, that he was Robin Malarkey’s father. He’s another awesome player

    That colour is fantastic. Also unusual to see a bass with a flame on the back
  16. E sharp
    Is that yours Brian? Always liked the look of them

    Those all valve Nexus heads look a real bargain at the price. I tried the all valve route with a Handbox, but found it under powered. The Nexus looks like a kind of British version of the Mesa one- at a fraction of the cost

    Oh and my one is 700 watts, not the 500 it says on that spec sheet. Thanks

    Found this online. Though mine is the 4 ohm version. I don’t have a cover for it unfortunately
  20. E sharp
    The Bass Gallery have these. I doubt you’ll find a better lightweight top notch P or J for this money
  21. E sharp
    I can throw in a Great Gramma pad, in with the sale too for free- same price
  22. E sharp
    That was a cover of a cover then. The original Tainted Love is a Northern Soul classic

    Not quite the same, but still a Series 6 model. By chance I clicked on Facebook Marketplace early this morning , and this popped up for £120 - saying in the next town. Clicked on the ad, and it was in my village, about 30 houses down from me. Messaged there and then, and bought it when I got home. Last Trace gear I had was a Series 6 AH300 over 20 years ago. Wanted a Series 6 combo for rehearsals. Just the job

    I’m up for trades on this. Vincent 5 string P or PJ Sadowsky 5 string M24 Either straight trade price wise, or cash up or down, depending on values. Thanks
