  1. Up for sale is my Tuscany Spider resonator bass. This has been well looked after so is in great condition. Fitted with Status Half Wound 45-105 strings which give a lovely warm, full tone through the lipstick pickup. Also sounds great unplugged, and sits nicely with an acoustic guitar when using a plectrum. I’ll also include some D’addario 45-105 round wounds which give a bit more volume acoustically. A great bass to leave in the leaving room to noodle on whilst watching tv. Also prefect for acoustic bands. It’s 30” scale and intonates great up the neck. Collection from Beccles, Suffolk. Or I have a box so shipping is also ok. £350

  2. I've just got one of these and I love it!
  3. Possibly interested in a part exchange with an electric guitar.
  4. I'll be Derby way in a few weeks if that helps anyone with collection.
  5. Brilliant archtop guitar in great condition. These guitars project really well and can be very loud. Fitted with Martin Retro 11-52 Monel strings, and set up with an action at the 12th fret of 2.5mm on the bass side and 2mm on the treble. Comes with Loar case. I have a box so can post.

  6. I love Epiphone basses. My two Rivolis (both in the Classifieds as one needs to go 😩😞 My previously owned archtop basses: I’ve also had an EB0 in the past which was great fun.
  7. Up for sale is my sunburst 1997 Epiphone Rivoli Reissue bass. A great playing and sounding bass in lovely condition. It has a few light scratches, some tarnishing on the bridge, but nothing bad condition wise. Set up with La Bella 760FL flatwound strings for extra thump. A reluctant sale. Collection much preferred from Beccles, Suffolk. I do have a box so could pack up for a courier.
  8. Sold a pickup to Andy. Easy to deal with and highly recommended. Cheers.
  9. Awesome pedal in excellent condition. £100 plus postage

  10. Hello Lars. Yes it is.
  11. That makes sense, thanks.
  12. Ok, cheers.
  13. Out of interest, do function bands have spare PAs at gigs?
  14. I don’t think you can write something like that without elaborating......
  15. Looks great. How much does it weigh?
  16. 1997 Epiphone Rivoli Reissue bass with hard case. A great playing and sounding bass in lovely condition. All original with no mods (other than a mod bar for the strings). A few light scratches, some tarnishing on the bridge, but nothing major condition wise. A reluctant sale. £750 collected from Beccles, Suffolk. I have a box so could pack up for a courier.
  17. It’d be close.... The D has 9” of silk, whilst the G has 6.5”.
  18. All lightly used. The Chromes are cut for 4 a side. The Trubass and Sunbeams are cut for a 2-a-side headstock. D'Addario Chromes 45-100 £SOLD DR Sunbeam SNMR45 45-105 £17.50 posted Rotosound Tru Bass RS88S 65-115 £SOLD
  19. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for the ‘correct’ way to wire up a Rivoli Bass. I have had my choke removed by my tech as I didn’t like the way it either removed loads of bass, or loads of mids. The stock Mudbucker has been rewound by Armstrong pickups, and is wired up in series & out of phase. It’s then using the wiring circuit as below. I was just wondering if this is the optimal way to wire these basses? It sounds good, especially with the volume on the bass rolled off a bit, and the tone knob at 5, but I was just intrigued as to if I was missing something. Cheers.
  20. That makes sense. So the poles should face each other as so:
  21. I've got a couple of Mudbucker pickups (one from a 90s Epiphone Rivoli, and one from a 2019 Epiphone EBO rewound with Alnico magnets) and I've just noticed the magnets are facing different directions on them. On the Rivoli one the ceramic magnets are in opposite directions, and on the other one the alnico 5 magnets are facing the same direction. Does anyone know the correct way the magnets should be fitted? Does it even matter? Thanks.
