Hi I have been asked to sell this DB for a friend of mine, who is not so plugged into the internet. He bought it on offer for about £400 probably about ten years back. It has been well played for a while but in the past few years gathering dust and taking up room as he switched over to drums. As you can see it has some ding on it but it plays well as far as I can tell and has a Fishman pickup added for plugging into an amp or desk. I am wondering if anyone can tell me how to identify the manufacturer and suggest a reasonable second hand value and best place to sell. Many thanks Mike PS: Hopefully I have attached some images - not too sure

My function band is comprised as follows two vocal mics two brass mics guitar with mic if needed keys and bass DI We have a 1k PA, FOH and monitor mix onstage and lots of lights. We can do setup in an 60 - 90 mins. It's always easier when you are familiar with the venue I find . . .

My first amps were HH - A Valve Sound guitar combo which I used for bass. It had two 12" speakers and seemed to give a very deep tone though in hindsight I suspect that was my own lack of experience. Later on I had a 100 watt bass head probably called a B100 - I found it lacking though it could have been the speaker. I am not sure either of these amps were all that very good but I was distracted by the green light up display panel. 20 years on and I repair amps as a sideline hobby and I recently came across three amps for repair. IC100, VS Musician (100w guitar head) and Bassman 100. You can read about some of the common faults and praise I give for their construction on [url="http://www.amploft.co.uk"]www.amploft.co.uk[/url]. Sounds wise I personally don't think they have the depth of sound that we are used to today this is my observation from bench comparison against each other and against some others from Yamaha and Peavey that I was also working on. The green panels are great

Hi there, joined the forum ages ago but forgot to introduce myself. I have been playing bass for about twenty years in originals, tribute / function bands upto audience sizes of a few hundred. Favourite players include bootsy, james jamerson, jah wobble and paul simonon. I Use Fender precision and Jazz basses through a Peavey Firebass and 410 cabinet with EBS compressor, Boss Synth pedal and RAT distortion. Also have a hohner B2A and Aria shortscale les paul shaped thingy which is very pretty. Have a cheap Legacy electro acoustic too. Use a pandora for practicing which is invaluable. Wouldn't say I was a particularly good player technically or have good ears but I enjoy playing the bass and put a lot of energy into the performance.
