  1. [quote name='Beedster' post='1158307' date='Mar 11 2011, 05:03 PM']I could use a low power amp. Any pics? Chris[/quote] Hi - done it now - I clicked on the "Send " before I'd finished the ad!!! lol
  2. Hey there - can anyone use this slave amp. It's a 2 x 125 watt RMS into 4 ohms per channel power amp. I got the chassis complete, but put it into a wooden sleeve that I built with rubber feet & a strap handle. The outputs are 2 x 1/4" jack sockets (one per channel) Inputs are again a single 1/4" jack socket per channel - if you use only input for channel 1 it goes to both channels, if you use input 2 then each channel has its own input. There is a single passive volume control on each input. Has an illuminated mains switch & power fuse on the back. The logos are just paper ones I made up & are only lightly glued on. Photos below. All in good condition/good working order. Huge mains transformer so no power supply sag. It has a great sound if you just use a small preamp - like a Sansamp bass driver into it. I had thought to use it for extra power into a pair of cabinets, but it's just sitting on the shelf. I'm in Morecambe, so you could call to pick it up & save the postage, or could meet up with you at Exit 34 of M6 Weight is about 7 or 8 kilos so postage would be £12 by Standard Parcels - I think. Prefer to sell, but may consider trades- what have you got?? [attachment=74543:P1280002.JPG][attachment=74544:P1280001.JPG][attachment=74542:P1180003.JPG]
  3. Hey there - gottit! Ta ever so. Stompbox
  4. OK - well thanks for that. The question sprang into my mind late last night after several beers, so I'm glad I remembered to get it on here this morning. I must confess that in my many, many years of playing, I've never used flatwounds, except on a Hofner Beatle bass that had black nylon wound strings on that I borrowed in the late 60s - but sound from the amp & speaker were so poor that Iwouldn't have known the difference. (A Linear Concorde amp & a Selmer Goliath 1 x 18" cabinet). After the winding went on one of the strings & it all unravelled I didn't use the guitar again. The guy offered the bass to me for £15, but I said it was rubbish. Guess I'm going to have to get some flatwounds then - any recommendations? Stompbox
  5. Good morning - I want to know has anyone had success in getting the classic Fender "Click" sound? I 'm talking about the recorded sound of Fender Precisions & Jazz basses on orchestral tracks like "Walk In The Black Forest" - Horst Jankovsky(???) and similar. Is it just a very short delay, or a reverb, or both? I think you have to play with a pick as well. I would be interested to hear comments and advice (apart from "Why do you want to get that sound" .....). Cheers, Stompbox.
  6. This is a "Two Albums on One CD" of Link Wray, in good condition and in its case with titles/label etc. He's a pretty mad guitarist (not a great guitarist, just mad) and one of the originators of the heavy vibrato arm/heavy tremolo plus loads of reverb. Anyway you'v probably heard of him. I got the album a while ago & just came across it with some others - I've not played it for ages so it's got to go. Any swaps for - well - any other album - it's your choice. Stompbox
  7. Hey there - anyone fancy a read of this? It's a hardback copy, in good nick & I'll send it on to the first person & then each member can forward it to the next. Not a quick read, but pretty interesting - plus some photographs in it. Let me know. Stompbox
  8. Hey there - are you still up & about? I know it's been a while, but is your KBA100 still up for grabs? Stompbox.
  9. Come on folks - someone must want to have a listen!!!!
  10. OK - gub's first, then Jacqueslemac. Will post it on Monday or Tuesday.
  11. Here we go then - I think this is a great idea - no idea how to manage it really, but let's see how it goes. This is a hardback book & not a quick read, but it's very entertaining & well illustrated. I like the idea of signing & dating the inside of the book to see where it's been, so I'll do that & ask others to keep it up. Who wants it first? PM me with your name & address. Stompbox
  12. Hey there - Would you add me to the list please? I'm also going to start a thread myself - one for Ronnie Wood's autobiography. I think this is a great idea.
  13. Hi Max, Just a line to say thanks for the Van Damme guitar lead - arrived very quickly, brand new, in sealed poly bag. Top man - I would recommend him to other group members.
  14. Hey there - I haven't got a MIM bass body and neck plate to swap (relatively few people have - even on this Bass group!), but Im keen to do a trade with you. Anything else grab you - I can get to Bolton area - my mate Jerry (ace bassist) lives in Farnworth so I can call & see him at the same time! How about a set of hand tools in a toolbox & a hi fi separate amp with remote control & motorised volume control? Anyway, all the best with your potential trade/swap. PS - Also got a new set of D'addario PROSTEEL Long scale, regular gauge 100, 80, 65, 45 roundwounds if they are of interest..........................
  15. Good morning Y'all, Well my Eric Clapton CD's gone - so here's another - it's a studio album of Mark Knopffler from 2004 - the disc is as new & there's a DVD of interviews & the band's studio performance with it - I didn't know it ws in the box so I've never watched it. Swaps anyone? How about any Albert King, Albert Lee, BB King, Jeff Beck, Bill Frisell, Steve Vai? Whatever - email me.......
  16. [quote name='Mickeyboro' post='1134728' date='Feb 20 2011, 07:54 PM']I have a T-Bone Walker triple album, the Best of 1940-57 (pre-release 3CDs in a plastic wallet) or John Mayall Howlin At The Moon (live album featuring Mick Taylor on guitar). Let me know if interested in either. Mick[/quote] Hi there - yes I'd be interested in the "T Bone" albums - you say in plastic wallett - not just copy CD's though? Geoff
  17. Got an excellent Warwick Corvette Standard off Andy the other day. Lovely bass, arrived well packed, very quick delivery & exactly as described. A star man to deal with - I thoroughly recommend him to others. Thanks again!
  18. Hi there Blademan, Any Jeff Beck, Bill Frisell, Albert King, Albert Lee, Steve Vai, The Idle Race, Creation????
  19. Hi - I'm normally a big fan of Erics stuff, and I got this a few weeks ago for myself, but now I've listened to it, I'm not that bothered about it . A lot of the tracks are older material by others except for a few tracks, so if you want it I'll stick it in a jiffy bag & send it off. NOW THEN - have you an album you don't want & you could post to me? Could make up a CD "swap" facility on here (what do you think you site moderators????)

  20. Hello - PM'd earlier. Still for sale? Cash or Paypal waiting..............
  21. Hi there - I've downloaded some information on both of these - it was the speaker cabinet I was most interested in, but the Peavey data sheet shows that it is nearly 27 kilos and measures 42.4cm x 62.2cm x 43.8cm. That's both bigger & heavier than I want, so I'll leave them for now, thanks anyway.
