  1. [quote name='chris_b' post='1296391' date='Jul 7 2011, 08:23 PM']pm'ed[/quote] And sold!
  2. Hello all I have one of these straps for sale in BLACK. It's the [b]medium length [/b]version, adjustable from 123 cm to 153 cm. It's really nice and in very good condition; good, strong and thick leather. The only thing I need to point out is I drilled a small extra hole, for a straplock, on the bridge end of the strap. Harvest say: [i]This strap for heavy instruments out of buffalo leather comes with the classic length adjustment. Made with a nice vintage pull up finish and produced with decorative offwhite seams. The strap is made out of two layer of full grain leather, together these are about 3 to 3.6 mm thick. Full grain leather is very strong and durable. The strap's width is 8.5 cm. It is the perfect width for holding the bass comfortably over a longer period of time.[/i] 20 euros plus postage new, I'd like [b]£10 plus post[/b]. Cheers Gareth
  3. [quote name='ziggydolphinboy' post='1293769' date='Jul 5 2011, 07:14 PM']ill have the felt washers zig[/quote] In the post today, thanks very much
  4. [quote name='Bigwan' post='1294623' date='Jul 6 2011, 12:27 PM']I've been eyeing the LB stuff for a while... How loud is 'very loud'? Nice setup btw![/quote] Well, clearly it's a subjective term, but to me it is plenty loud enough for my two bands, and one of them is a Jam/Weller tribute band so quite, er, loud.
  5. Thanks Raggy [quote name='BassBod' post='1294514' date='Jul 6 2011, 11:21 AM']So you've sold the Ken Smith and the Wal then?[/quote] Yes Dunc, the Smith and Wal went some time ago. I think my uber boutique bass days are past me now, shame it cost me so much to realise it! It's just the Veillette fretless (awesome), BSX upright (awesome), and the P bass now. I may get a small lightweight digital head as well, but this seems to be doing it for me just now.
  6. Here's my latest setup. Ashdown UK-made all-tube head with matching LB212 cab, plus a P-Retro fitted Squier Matt Freeman. It's a killer setup. The amp goes very loud, and the bass was good even before the P-Retro went in. Cheers Gareth
  7. Sold Uke a strap. No problem at all with either payment or communication.
  8. If only someone would buy my Veillette or PJB cab. I want these so bad!
  9. Used Dunlop straplocks in black, but [i]only the part that fits to the strap[/i]. £10 posted. Chrome strap button with screw. New. £3 posted. [s]Black felt washers for strap buttons (3 are thin and new, 2 are thicker and used). 99p each or all for £4 posted.[/s]
  10. 1 set of La Bella Hard Rockin't Steels, 45-105. Lightly used. Tenner plus postage. Single D'Addario XLB125 low B. Nickel roundwound .125 taper low B. Unused. A fiver plus postage.
  11. I have three of Dave's finest speaker cables for sale. Two 3ft long, Speakons both ends, Klotz 4mm cable. New they'd be £15 each, I'd like a tenner for each plus postage. One 20ft long, same spec as above. New I think this would be £25, I'd like £20 plus postage of your choice. Cheers Gareth
  12. I have had a UK-made LB30 and LB212 cab for two weeks now. Absolutely love it and am astonished at how loud it can get. One word: TONE
  13. I picked one of these basses up from The Gallery a couple of weeks ago to use in the Jam/Weller band I joined a few months back. I have to say, I am [i]really[/i] impressed with it. It's very well put together, with excellent fit and finish. The weight is good (just a shade under 10lbs) with no neck dive, no dead spots. The neck is chunky but fast. It sounds great passive, but I had Alex put a P Retro in it anyway, and it is an absolute tone monster. Amazing what you can get for under £400 these days... Gareth
  14. Well, I used my LB30 head and LB212 cab at rehearsal for the first time; one word: Wow. With my P-Retro'd Squier Matt Freeman in active mode into the "High" input, I only had the volume at 9 o'clock and it sounded huge. Seriously happy with the amp and cab. I had been tempted to get two of the VS212, 8 ohm versions of esentially the same cab, but I'm not sure I'll need to move much more air than this. And all from a 30 watt amp. Incredible...
  15. Sold a cab to Brian. Top gent with fast payment and great communication. Recommended.

    Bought Luke's Bassbone (my third, will I ever learn?). Great communication and a pleasure to deal with.
  17. The Phil Jones [url="http://www.philjonespuresound.com/products/?id=125"]PB300[/url] would also do this job very well.
  18. These really are the biz. I regret selling mine as it gave the most righteous tone.
  19. Toby Chennell has a mate who makes custom stuff for his basses, maybe try him?
  20. Well, it sounds fantastic, that's the main thing!
