As-new Markbass STU amp complete with rack ears, manual and original packaging. SOLID STATE AND TUBE PREAMPS The two MB STU AMP 1000 preamps with separate controls for the solid state and tube, offer a wide range of tone from clean to crunchy overdrive and distortion and everything in between. You can rock your sound from old-school to hard rock or make your own alternative rock tone! 7-BAND GRAPHIC EQ The seven-band graphic EQ is very useful and easy to use to modify your instrument tone. The seven frequencies were chosen to give you total control of your bass tone, even on 5 and 6-string basses. Each band can be boosted or cut over a +/-16dB range. 1000W HIGH-POWER / MPT - MARK PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY This high-power head gets amplified by a poweful 1000W MPT power amp, boasting massive supply of power and serious headroom. About all the bass amps on the market use the same power amp from different manufacturers, which are not specifically designed for bass. At Markbass, Marco De Virgiliis invested a lot on R&D to create a proprietary power amp technology, specifically designed to respect and glorify the tone of your instrument. £485 collected from Margate or feel free to organise your own courier.

Here's said video. I'm sure that guy could get a decent sound out of an old broom but, even so.. Sounds great.

It's essentially the same bass. The one Scott reviewed has a Spruce body (this one is Alder) and a "battered" finish.

It's a typical jazz style neck, 38mm/1.5"

It's a very tactile satin finish. Reminds me of my MacBook Air..

We agreed not to mention that again 😁 The cab is now sold, mate.

Thanks Nik, very kind of you.

I have the original packaging if anyone wants to arrange collection. Even including courier costs this is a very cheap and very capable cab.

23kg including packaging, so probably 21-22kg.

This bass plays incredibly well and sounds fantastic. Just to reiterate, this isn't one of the Indonesian made basses, this was hand-made in Italy!

Sorry, it's now sold.

Albion 300w, 8ohm 1x15 cab up for grabs. I bought this cab from PMT in the sale as a cheap cab to leave at a rehearsal space. I didn't think it'd be up to much but it is EXCELLENT. Not just considering the price, either. It's really very good. It reminds me of the Mesa Powerhouse 1x15 I had a while back, full range, powerful and yet articulate. The added bonus is that it weighs nowhere near as much as the Mesa! I now need the space more than I need extra gear lying around, so come and grab a bargain. Proper pics to follow.

Yamaha Japan BB400S from the mid 80s. There is considerable buckle rash on the back but the neck and front of the bass are in great condition for the age. It had a set of EMGs installed in the 80s by the original owner and it sounds great. Includes the original flight case with purest green lining.

Thanks, it's pretty remarkable.

Up.

I should clarify that without the switch, both channels are on all the time. I've used it with my bass on channel 1 and a keyboard on channel 2 to great effect. I've also used it with my phone connected to ch2 for silent practice in conjunction with the headphone amp. A useful piece of kit.

I've never tried it but I gather it's to switch between channel 1 and 2.

Now £1395 Sadowsky MV4E Metro Express, made in Japan in small numbers before Warwick got hold of Sadowsky. This is not to be confused with the new RSD Metro Express basses which are made in China to a very different price point. This is practically identical to the two Sadowsky Metro MV4 basses I've owned previously. As it's an MV4 it has a lightweight ash body, maple fingerboard and an ultra smooth feeling nitro-finished maple neck. The finish is a lovely metallic Sage Green. The Japanese ME basses seem to be universally lightweight, and this one is no exception at 7lb 13oz or 3.54kg. It's in great condition but does have a very small paint chip on the forearm contour, I'll try to highlight this in the pictures. It comes with the Sadowsky Porta bag, and tools etc.
