    Absolute classic.

    They were only announced three weeks ago so I doubt stock will arrive anywhere until the new year.

    I have owned a lot of great basses over the years. Most notable (i.e. that I'd have back in a shot) were a Mk III Wal fretless 5, a Ken Smith BMT Elite 5, a 1970 fretless P, and a Veillette Archtop fretless. But the two Franz basses I own now are perfect in every way ❤️

    Heistercamp and Pinegrove are two excellent British strap makes that can sort you out.

    I have this incoming as a part-trade from a good friend of mine, but it's not really my thing so offering it up here. FEATURES Two-channel hybrid bass amplifier head Tube preamp, solid-state power amp; 800W at 4ohms Vintage and Overdrive preamp channels XLR line output, tuner output and effects loop (W) 56.81cm x (H) 21.9cm) x (D) 26.7cm Lightweight 17 lbs. (7.7kg) Condition is very good. There is some minor wear on the underside and bottom left corner. Includes original box and a custom lightweight case. Note that there's no footswitch included. £1039 RRP. Best street price in UK I've found is £845. I'm looking for £700 collected or delivered, or posted for an extra £20 fully insured.

    In a word, yes.

    And our very own @MoJoKe is stepping in with an Evo 1 on loan until mine gets sorted. I love Basschat

    Real say the amp needs a new preamp with DSP board, so out of action until mid-January

    Argh, a month ago I'd have had this! GLWTS

    Let's just have a close look shall we

    I much prefer the La Bella nylons to the D'Addario ones, as I prefer the heavier gauge and lower tension. Copper Whites are my favourite, but they have stopped doing them in extra long scale so I now use White Nylons on my fretless, and yes, they are brighter.

    I think that although these two are of a particular time, their themes are as relevant today as they were then... which is a sad indictment really.
  15. franzbassist
    I think because, they are such fundamentally different instruments, I have less problem switching between fretless and upright than I do between fretless and fretted!
  16. franzbassist
    Indeed. It's ex-demo, so no issues getting it sorted under warranty.
  17. franzbassist
    No worries. What would BC be without a little thread derailment now and then? I tried the jacks but didn't check the ground lift. Anyway, it doesn't matter now as the retailer has arranged for it to go to Real Electronics for a warranty repair. Hopefully they can turn it round quickly!

    Can't hear the clicking in the phones out or on either of the line outs, so maybe something up somewhere else? Can still hear it if I take a line out from my combo and run that into the fx returns...
  20. franzbassist
    Thanks, I've just tried turning the fx off but the clicking is still there.

    First time using the amp with a cab today and there is a strange click after each note. This can’t be normal can it? 0E886E02-F06C-4250-9787-A72E5DF252F0.MOV

    How about giving one of the new PJ Mustangs a go Dave? If you like the tone from that you know 30" would work.

    A solid sale of a cab to Jake. Excellent comms, quick payment and a thoroughly decent chap to boot. I would deal with him again in a heartbeat.
