  1. Here is my American Standard Precision Bass in three colour sunburst - these are on the market for about £1100 now, so I'm looking for £795 It’s made in the USA in 2007 and is in really excellent, unmarked condition – the only wear are some plectrum scuffs on the scratchplate and the plastic cover of the pickup. I really love this bass – it has the fabulous slick, maple neck & fretboard with the new High Mass Bridge that is now fitted to Fender basses. This gives you the option of stringing it through the body, or through the back of the bridge. The sound & playability are excellent – a really top instrument. It comes in its own SKB fitted Fender flightcase with key. There is also the Fender owner’s manual, Allen key etc. I’m selling it as I’ve got too much money tied up in instruments and as this one is in virtually new condition (even the case is unmarked) – I would rather sell it before I manage to ding it or mark it! I'm in sunny Morecambe near Lancaster - you're welcome to come & try it out, but I can arrange to have it sent in ts case by carrier - I would have to get a quote for this.

  2. Well now - it's three of a kind, but only two of three basses - I hope you will forgive me. A pretty good trio, in my view. Hmm - may have to get a tortoiseshell pickguard for the Strat......................... Stompbox [attachment=82870:Three_Fenders__2_.JPG]
  3. Hi there - Jaquesmac is back & has PM'd me - I have an extra copy of this (which is posted earlier on this thread) & it's on the way to him.
  4. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  5. Hi there - did you buy the amp new & could you put any pics on? Just after a bit more info. When you power the amp up is it totally dead or do any LED's come on - if so which ones - does the new fan run? Is there no sound on either channel? Cheers, Stompbox
  6. Yes - you are probably right. That's what I think I will do. Are there any decent plans available through the Bsschat site? Thanks, Stompbox.
  7. [quote name='Bill Fitzmaurice' post='1224349' date='May 8 2011, 06:41 PM']Just make two 1x15.[/quote] Well yes, but then you couldn't carry, say, your packed lunch, or other interesting soft, squidgy items inside the open topped (and bottomed) cabinets -to save space ............. you know, a bit like the old dance band drum kits, where the bass drum came in half, and you could put the cymbals and snare inside, then clip it back together for transit. You could put it together side by side as well.......
  8. Following on from my earlier post, I'm acquiring a pair of 15" bass drivers - now I'm thinking about building a 2 x 15" vertical cab. How about one that will clip together (but have an open base on the top cabinet, and an open top on the bottowm one, if you see what I mean,) so as to make it more portable? Hmmm...
  9. Good morning! Let's hear it for the Bose "Vertical Array" speakers. I went out and bought a Bose L1 system, a Tonematch mixer, & two B1 bass boxes after using another bands system just once. It all breaks down into light separate units, gives a geat bass sound, AND you can put the vocals through it as well. Like Bassninja said - evenly spread sound through the whole room - very strange, and delivers the sound round corners too! It means the punters near the band don't get blasted, and the people at the back get to hear it too (and round the corners in odd shaped rooms). A real revelation after playing through "normal" equipment - in front of a big speaker "box", and from behind two PA columns for the last 40 years!. Not loud, but great, even, quality, sound right through the venue. (Hey - I think I'll see if I can get a "Bose Sales" T shirt & a sponsorship deal -Hmmmmm.) Speaking of vertical amps of yesteryear does anyone remember "TRIUMPH" amplifiers - they were a 2 x 12" vertical combo - - back in the late Sixteis - a local band I knew had them & I recall they had a great sound (for the time).
  10. Got the USA Jazz pickups today thanks - top bloke - items well packed -- good price. Thanks. Stompbox
  11. Got the USA Jazz bass pickups, thanks. Cheers, Stompbox
  12. Good morning - I'm interested in the Jazz bass pickups if they are still available - is that £39 the pair with postage? Will you take payment by Paypal? Lastly can you confirm that they are a pair of USA pickups - not off a Mexican bass. Thanks Stompbox
  13. Good morning, I've looked at these micro Korgs on & off - does it do a big fat synth bass sound? Cheers, Geoff
  14. Interesting topic - I have a CIJ 62 Reissue Jazz that I bought new when they were first made/issued - must be over ten years now. It has been my main bass since then & I love it. The feel of it is excellent & I only recently got a USA Precision - 2007. Again an excellent instrument - but now I have it I see what the member above - Mr. Fudge - means by the "not enough OOMPH". The USA Precision has an indefinable "Better" sound. I think I'll get some fresh pickups for my Japanese guitar - I had thought of looking for a USA set - but what does anyone else suggest - obviously the Wizzards above - it's a brand I hadn't heard of. Regards, STOMPBOX
  15. Thats' [i][b]exactly[/b][/i] the sound I'm talking about!
  16. I'm trying to find a link that relates to string tensions on the Basschat site - I had it a couple of days ago but I didn't make a note of it. Help!!
  17. Hi, I'm trying to find the post about string tensions that I think mentions these- are these the bass strings that are low tension & are they long scale? Thanks, Stompbox

  19. Go on then - I probably shouldn't answer this in case it leads elsewher - but hey after a couple or three of glasses of red wine .... So. I have a Sansamp DI - but I value it & think it really is the best thing since fretted basses.......... I have an excellent Boss Compressor up for grabs, plus ???? What are you looking for - or what clarinets/flutes/ piccolos have you? Also have some guitar effects pedals, and a small as new Yamaha mixing desk with digital echo/reverb etc. built in..............
