  1. Selling this beauty alongside my SVT-VR Amp head. In great condition, comes with full Ampeg cover. Very minor scuffs to the bottom kickplate. As per my other post for the SVT-VR Amp Head, it really hasn't been used since about 2014 then in 2015 I had a slipped disc in my neck which retired it. It's been sitting here in my office ever since and I keep looking at it and thinking "One day I'll treat myself.." but that day never comes. ** NO TRADES PLEASE ** Comes with free red front cover too - see image below. (It looks pink but it is red.) This will need to be a pick only item due to its size. I am based in Horsham, West Sussex. ............................................................................

  2. Very reluctant sale but needs must and it is just too heavy now for my poor back! This is a Made in Vietnam version from around 2012. This lovely piece of kit had a shaky start and kept cutting out. After much politics and conflab it was a agreed that as a gesture of goodwill that it would be completely rebuilt for me at Ampeg's expense. The rebuild was done by the legend that is Stan at Surrey Amps and all the best components fitted to Heritage specs as a gesture of goodwill. Since then it has never let me down, but it really hasn't been used since about 2014 then in 2015 I had a slipped disc in my neck which retired it. It's been sitting here in my office ever since and I keep looking at it and thinking "One day I'll treat myself.." but that day never comes. It's in great condition and comes with a flight case. £850.00 **NO TRADES PLEASE** Obviously this will need to be a pickup only item. I am based in Horsham, West Sussex. Terrible dreary day for taking photos but the best are below. ..........................................................

  3. Here is my beloved Gibson Ripper that I have cherished for about 5 or 6 years, but she must go as just used so much anymore as I seem to be more of a P bass man now. This was set up a couple of years ago by Jonathan Law at Feline Guitars and plays like a dream. As part of the set up, I asked Jonathan to change the wiring on the pickup selector to swap from the useless "out of phase" option to a front pickup option for a nice P bass tone. This is easily reverted back to standard if required. The original bridge has been swapped for the Hipshot Supertone replacement which is far more robust. I still have the existing bridge too. Bass is also screened so no annoying buzzes or hums. Currently strung with fairly new Elixir 45 - 105. I'll be sorry to see this go but needs must. **NO TRADES PLEASE** Ideally I'd prefer pickup only (I am based in West Sussex) to avoid worrying about damage in transit. If postage is necessary, I'll have to calculate postage costs. I'll let the photos do the talking although dreadful dreary day for photos! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- See my other items for sale: Ampeg SVT VR Head: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/318805-ampeg-svt-vr/ Ampeg SVT VR Bass Cab 8x10: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/318810-ampeg-svt-bass-cab-810ev-vr/ Mesa Boogie Bass 400+: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/318815-mesa-boogie-bass-400/ Mesa Boogie 1516B Bass Cab: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/318819-mesa-boogie-1516b-ev-bass-cab/
  4. Just sold my Markbass cab to Simon - lovely man, easy transaction & a credit to Basschat!
  5. Hi - this is the [url="https://origineffects.com/product/cali76-compact-deluxe/"]Cali76 - Compact Deluxe[/url] which is for guitar or bass (or whatever). I chose this model as it had more facility to edit the compression - IE more knobs/controls than the slightly more basic bass version. It has separate Attack and Release controls unlike the bass model which only has one control for both the Attack and Release times. Hope this helps!
  6. **NOW SOLD** Origin Effects Cali76 - Compact Deluxe for sale. Around 6 months old, superb compressor from the legendary Origin Effects. In as new condition, still with original rubber feet. This scores very highly in the review on the Ovnilab website. Love it but realised I missed my old faithful Empress compressor, so this now has to go. NO TRADES THANKS I am based in West Sussex but can ship to within mainland UK. £230.00 including shipping saving £50.00 on the new price.
  7. Just looking at the pics I have taken - the colour is a [u]metallic [/u]teal blue but the metallic doesn't show much in the images....
  8. Thanks for the comments chaps. Forgot to add, the w[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]eight is 4.9KG / 10.8lbs but I can honestly say I have never thought of it as a heavy bass. Hangs just right.[/font][/color]
  9. I meant to say, apologies for the flies on the scratchplate, for some reason, they seemed to like landing on it while I was taking pics :0)
  10. This is a heartbreaker but sadly needs to be moved on. I bought this 2004 Music Man Stingray 5 from new in beautiful Teal blue. In my opinion, these basses have the best B string I have heard. The bass came originally with black scratchplate, knobs and pickup cover but I converted these to white as I thought it looked nicer. (Black knobs & pickup cover also included in the sale) The wooden neck/frets have had very little use as I added a Status Graphite neck pretty soon after I bought it which was my plan. Beautiful condition with very slight swirls and comes with the original hardcase. Set up with a "medium" action to keep the B nice and clear. Strings (Elixir) are fairly old but perfectly fine. Fitted with Ernie Ball Straplocks but I will throw in a set of chrome Schaller straplocks too. For safety and peace of mind, I'd prefer pickup only, but if needs must I can post UK mainland. I am based in West Sussex, 30 minutes from Gatwick. Price: £1250.00 ** NO TRADES PLEASE ** I'll let the pics do the talking...
