  1. Thanks Dave I've got some from Jeannie's already for the DJ. I've been given details of Sims who do custom p/g's in the UK. [url="http://www.simscustom.com/"]http://www.simscustom.com/[/url] They seem to know their onions!
  2. OK so there has been some chat on the official thread and this is in no way a hijack.... I noticed that some people are travelling alone to the show and others suggested some way of ID'ing fellow forumites. What if we arrange a little 'meet and greet' of our own? What about the cafe area at 11am...... maybe we could have a little sign printed with the Basschat logo and take it from there? Not sure how people feel about name badges but certainly a wee white sticker with 'BassChat' on it would allow people to know who fellow forumites are, pop over and say hi and not be wandering around alone. These type of shows are always better when you have someone to rave about gear to or to encourage you to demo some stuff If people know the layout of the venue and can suggest a more appropriate meeting point then please put your views forward. I wouldn't take much to arrange and could really make the day better for a lot of people who would otherwise be walking about alone. Look forward to your suggestions gavin
  3. Just sent this to someone who suggested I post it Its Ed Friedland doing a head to head with a bunch of different string sets from DR (my string of choice for round wounds as it happens) You really can hear the difference between the different sets and his views on tone etc are always spot in. Enjoy [url="http://www.bassemporium.com/newsletters/0609newsletter.html"]http://www.bassemporium.com/newsletters/0609newsletter.html[/url]
  4. TheButler thank you for the kind words..... you know your welcome to come over and have a blast anytime! Plus I may actually have a kettle in the room next time so I can offer you a cuppa! The bass is currently on hold until Bass Day on the 22nd as discussed G (hope you got the pic's ok) Anyone else who is interested will be second in line and you will hear back from me on the 23rd either way. Thanks for looking Gavin
  5. Hey some of you may remember this from a few weeks back..... Price £775 shipped with gig bag and 2 spare pick guards. £750 shipped with gig bag and p/g of your choice of the three - black, white or tort The p/g's are from jeannie pickguards in the USA, great quality and a perfect fit. The Bass.... This is a very versatile bass with a whole heap of great tones. The neck is to die for and all you have to do is see how many forumites play Lakland stuff to believe the hype. I'd add a link to the Lakland site but they have discontinued this bass. I'm positive they will bring out a similar version, possibly an artist endorsement, its just too good to just lose from their inventory. Condition The bass is on great condition but it has been played and as such has a few very minor little marks No chips on the finish etc but there are two small dings on the back of the headstock - thats what happens when you hit cymbals with your bass! Purely cosmetic and I'll get pics tonight at practice. I have to admit this is a reluctant sale but its only to fund another purchase of one of those must get before its gone deals! I think you call it GAS I have just acquired a Lakland p bass so I've still got my Lakland fix (phew!) If your near Edinburgh and wanna come over and give the bass a go I'd be happy to arrange a time. I have a practice room where you can turn it up nice and loud! Thanks for your interest feel free to mail me direct at gavindevlin'at'mac'dot'com Gavin
  6. Keeping my tort guard and don't really use the black or white any more. Had the black guard on last week for my final gig with my old band - my equivalent to a black arm band but an all-black bass is a little too death metal for my liking! The guards were made by Jeannie Pickguards in the USA and are top quality. The black has some marks as you may expect so I'd take a little less for it. The white is in great shape. Shall we say £20 and £25 respectively? Buy both and I'll do them shipped for £40. Go on treat yourself - Its like getting a new bass that feels just like your old one but looks sexy! I'll update with picks tomorrow (i'll show them fitted to the bass for a better idea of how they look) Thanks for looking
  7. Hey folks Anyone know where I can source a Lakland BG pick guard in the UK. I know of some USA based guys but would much prefer to get one more locally than wait on our colonial friends. I'm after a tort specifically and would be happy to swap a Lakland DJ4 p/g white or black with someone if they were wiling ( I know they are different models but I have 3 for the DJ which came with the bass when I got it and only one for the BG) Cheers in advance for any help.

    Tecamp

    I too noticed the BadBull gone and I was gonna try and get it as aloaner from GG as I have been sold a dud amp from them - nt their fault and the online/ phone guys are a pleasure to deal with. Might see if I can snag the Performer 600 looks plenty mean and i understand its got a valve in there somewhere too. Any of you cats had a go on one?
  9. *THE HEAD HAS NOW SOLD* Thanks for looking Up again due to the forces of nature, rail works and geography! Reason for sale is Im trying to unload a few pieces of gear to get one killer bit of kit. If this don't sell for the asking price I'm quite content to keep it - not gonna sell for a crazy price then spend the next 2 yr talking about the one that got away and regretting it. Hands up if you have ever done that before? RH 450 - All the good things you have heard are true and this head delivers on power, performance and versatility. Sound guy at a gig the other night was floored as my sound check took about 30 seconds (he was using the built in DI along with my stage cab) "Lets hear some bass" he said. I played a little, he said "Damn! Sounds great can we get some guitar next?" Literally 30 seconds! Check out the TC website and Harmony Central reviews. Plenty Asking £600 ovno. Perfect condition and Im willing to ship in the UK (p+p will be included in the asking price) I'd be happiest with a face to face meet + demo and I'll happily oblige in Edinburgh but will be unable to travel. Tried that, didn't work out and it just resulted in two frustrated individuals hence the re-list. Thanks for looking and pic's included. Its roughly the size of a laptop only about twice as thick Please PM your interest

    mesa 2:100

    I was thinking that myself but its good to hear others thoughts Thanks guys
  11. Seen one of these on evilbay and was wondering would a 100 tube power amp be enough for a bass rig? and would it be clean enough? Thoughts?
  12. I have a Fender Bassman 20 - hand wired PTP made by Paul Rivera when he was at Fender back in the 80's Its nowhere near loud enough for anything other than practice but with an acoustic jam or playing in the house its such a good tone - before i got it it lived in a recording studio and was the go to bass amp when mic'ing up. Its got a 1x15 and sounds great for bass and not too shabby for guitar either! Actually running it flat out thru a 4x12 cab will give you some healthy all tube dirt ala SVT. Its up for sale if any y'all are interested as I never get to use it these days. I'll try and add it as my avatar pic as Im having trouble up loading pics. If someone wants to give me advice on how to up load feel free
  13. SWR now gone. SVP hangs in the balance
  14. Price drop to £100 You pick up the P+P Be quick as Im leaving this band after next and this belongs to the guitarist. Grab and absolute bargain. Tube pre amp for a ton?? Deal!
  15. Two Tube pedal normally going for around the £180 mark These are meant to give guitar players a non-boogie boogie tone???? I dont know about that but if your after a fat tube bass tone this is the deal. Most bass dirt has too little bottom end but this thing delivers by the bucket load. All tube true bypass and its running at the right voltage to really push those little bottles. Don't see these often and a really nice tube sound - go from a llitle tube fat to full blown dirt plus if your able you can use your foot to turn the gain up and down - ok so it takes a llittle practice but you can do it drop me a line if your interested
  16. Thans to all who have looked/ enquired Sale is on hold as I may be selling another amp which will then fund the other bass purchase - complicated business this buying and selling. Huge gazumping potential! I'll PM those who were in touch if its still on the market after mid week.
  17. Thanks to everyone who got in touch Thanks to the guys who borrowed the gear to try out at gigs/ practice and an even bigger thanks for rewarding my trust and bringing it back. You know who you are TheButler If anyone wants to do business with this guy he is very trustworthy and I can vouch for him like some sort of mafioso! Likewise I can vouch for Jacko from the forum who bought the pre. Nice guy, very generous with his time and the owner of a very nice Alembic or two! gavin
  18. C'mon guys my guitarist is getting nervous
  19. To those that have asked I'll reply via PM Please PM for details - im asking the current market price for one of these - not the I need to shift it to pay for my car tax but at the same time not the DJ has left Lakland and I wanna cash in price either Thanks for looking
  20. A chance to grab a JO4 with Chi Sonic's has arisen so the feelers are out. This is the black sparkle with maple neck and block inlays extra pick guards one black, one white. She is currently dressed up in a tort ad it looks great. Pic on request. date on it is 03_______ This link will give you an idea of just how sweet this bass is [url="http://www.bebo.com/PhotoAlbumBig.jsp?PageNbr=1&MemberId=6415885978&PhotoAlbumId=10881369700&PhotoId=10881391540"]http://www.bebo.com/PhotoAlbumBig.jsp?Page...oId=10881391540[/url] extra pick guards one black, one white. She is currently dressed up in a tort ad it looks great. Pic on request. I love RW boards and the lure of the chi sonic's and RW on this JO4 are too much.
