    Experienced singing bassist available (Cambridge)

    in Bassists Available

    Posted

    Save me from my PS3!!!!!

    My last band stopped abruptly after recording a debut album and starting to get a Buzz around our sound.
    Our guitarist moved overseas and couldnt find anyone decent enough to replace him. That was a few months ago now and can't find anything decent.....someone must need a decent bassist round my way?

    I'm mid 30s been playing bass for @ 20 years and singing. Ive been performing live since I was about 8 (youth orchestras and what not)

    I have transport and a decent backline along with a couple of lovely 5 strings

    You can check out my last band by visiting [url="http://www.sachanovak.com"]www.sachanovak.com[/url] (unmastered and not quite complete) or listen to the album previews here [url="http://www.last.fm/music/Sachanovak/Shine"]http://www.last.fm/music/Sachanovak/Shine[/url]


    Influences: Kerbdog, Deftones, Bush, Foos, QOTSA, Black Sabbath, SOAD etc etc

    I'm looking to form/join a band preferably with similar likeminded experienced people.

    Glam/Hair metallers and Ego-maniacs need not apply thanks :)

    Ping me a note if you're interested

    Cheers

    Nick

    FS: Behringer BTR2000 rack mount tuner & new Leads

    in Accessories & Other Musically Related Items For Sale

    Posted · Edited by nique

    This is Behringers answer to Korgs' DTR 2000

    Has been rack mounted since I've owned it

    Been a great investment....the only difference I've found between the Korg and this is that this takes a little time to pick up the B string
    It has 3 tiny scratches on the front (pic 3) but that s it.

    Fantastic bit of kit for the price! Please someone give it a good home

    Functions:
    # Multi-functional tuner including built-in microphone for use with acoustic instruments
    # Useful metronome, adjustable from 30 to 240 bpm with audible and visual beat indicator. You can also work on-the-fly with the manual TAP tempo function
    # Integrated, switchable racklights with high-power LEDs for absolute control over your rack gear
    # 11 different tuner modes (e. g. "chromatic", "banjo" or open tunings) based on 12 equally tempered tones
    # Manual or automatic A-tone standard pitch calibration from 428 Hz to 452 Hz in 1-Hz increments, transposable by a maximum of ± 7 semitones for especially flexible tuning
    # Adjustable resolution of the LED bar (5 Cent/LED vs. 1 Cent/LED) enables precise tuning up to the cent, which allows for user-defined tuning systems
    # Two separate input channels accessible via front and back connectors (controllable via optional footswitch)
    # Additional 1/4'' TS output for metronome click/reference tone - perfect for monitoring and practice applications
    # True hardware bypass for highest signal integrity between input and output
    # Practical Mute function for direct signal muting during tuning (controllable via optional footswitch)
    # High-quality components and exceptionally rugged construction ensure long life

    I've had a Schecter Stiletto Diamond Custom 5 for a few years.

    I bought this second hand and I haven't got a bad word to say about Schecters

    For the price....I'd highly recommend them as a decent cheapish bass

    Had a few enquiries about trading.

    I need the cash for these to pay for the Chilis, so no trades thanks.

    Now having said that......read below from a genuine request I got through another websit


    ......words fail me......


    ==============================
    Hi,
    I was wondering if you were interested in a trade for your bass amp speakers.
    I have a ride on lawnmower that has not been of use to me since I had a swimming pool installed. I bought the lawnmower for £4300 in 2005 and it has been used maybe only 100 times. I have not had a single fault since ownership.
    My son has just started to play bass and he has told me he needs some decent speakers. He has been using my marshall amp from the 60s with speakers from my stereo.
    Please let me know if you are interested. I do not have a trailer but I would be happy to ride the lawnmower too your house, it would have to be done at night time though as it is not legal to do this.
    Thank you for your time.
    James

    I've just upgraded to a half stack so have to say Goodbye to the 'old guard'...(Click on pics to open into a decent size)


    [b]Hughes and Kettner 450w QS210[/b] 2 x 10 cab
    6 months old [b]as new in box [/b], not been gigged
    2 x speakon connectors
    Switchable between 4 and 16 ohms

    I bought this as an interim cab but was amazed at the sound I got from a budget cab.

    [b]This weighs only 21 kgs!!!![/b]

    *Blurb*
    QS 210 PRO

    The new QS cabinets put out heavyweight tone in an extraordinarily light package. Quantum Pro cabinets are loaded with Eminence® Neodymium speakers that react faster and with far greater precision than traditional woofers – resulting in greater sound control and hair-trigger response to your touch! 10" speakers feature Dual Cone technology; 12" and 15" woofers boast a newly developed DuraDome® design that renders overtone spectrums unrivalled in depth, breadth and congruity. Phase and directivity problems commonly associated with horns are history. Classic plywood, rugged steel grilles, Speakon® connectors and no-compromise workmanship make Quantum Pro cabinets robust and reliable sidekicks for quality-conscious bassists.

    This ultra-compact powerhouse is the ideal complement to bigger bins and a sweet stand-alone solution built to satisfy professional performance requirements.
