  1. Most intriguing... Looks tiny. Still, not gonna sway me from my MB200 which is but a few days away I'm told
  2. Looks like one which has failed to sell on ebay over the last few months
  3. My first bass was the Stage Series Jazz, still got it, though the PUps are replaced with Schallers. I also have an exact copy of this one but it's in pieces whilst I find the time to do something with it. I have a decent solid wood body from a (70s?) Kay P copy which I am hoping to attach tot eh Vester's neck (the Kay's neck is more like a banana) but the pair of them have been disassembled for nigh on 3 years now..... Not a bad find for £25, even with the pylwood body! A decent set up (and poss a swap of the PUps and pots) and you have a decent sounding and playing bass for not much
  4. I have this on my iPad and it's great! Perfect for "silent" home song learning Gonna start taking it to lessons as well (with little powered speaker thing), instead of lugging an amp around.
  5. RIP Jet
  6. I have a spare Hiscox liteflite case which has been fine on flights before. Junction 8 M25 if you want to borrow it
  7. Here's my latest addition to the fold: Gotta say, I love it! It's not had any gig or rehearsal time yet but just from home noodling and taking it to lessons as my teaching bass yesterday, it feels fantastic. Couldn't resist when I saw it on fleabay...
  8. [quote name='lemmywinks' post='1163493' date='Mar 15 2011, 06:46 PM']Just for a bit of balance, i had one (the old carpet covered 100 watter) and really didn't like it! Decent enough for the money but the sound wasn't to my taste and it never seemed capable of delivering volume without being pushed too hard. Eventually crapped out and wouldn't stop blowing fuses so i swapped it for a black Big Muff. I tried one of the later ones at a gig and that actully seemed quiter[/quote] [quote name='wotnwhy' post='1163506' date='Mar 15 2011, 06:55 PM']For more balance, my first combo was a Commando 15. Sound was good on it's own, but i found it was totally lost in a band setting. Got a Peavey 115 after that, found it miles better in a gigging situation.[/quote] The 150W I found to be more punchy than the 100W version i still have, but I would agree that the 100W ones certainly lacked enough oomph for anything but the quietest of gigs. They still sound nice though (IMO, at volumes before breakup )
  9. Lovely sounding combo I have the original 100W version, love it!
  10. [quote name='Mr Bassman' post='1162569' date='Mar 14 2011, 11:14 PM']The MB112 combo was available from Thomann but last time I looked they'd sold out. [url="http://www.gear4music.com/search/mb112/filters=d:"]Gear4Music[/url], look like they've got them for £30 more[/quote] Aye, that be the combo, not the cab Soundslive expect more MB200 heads in 4-5 weeks. So my wait continues
  11. [quote name='Mr Bassman' post='1162286' date='Mar 14 2011, 08:13 PM']I got mine from [url="http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Gallien-Krueger-MB200-Bass-Amp-Head~ID~14131.asp"]Soundslive[/url] a couple of days after ordering.[/quote] Cheers, will have a look! Re. the MB112, if you're referring to the cab it's not happening now apparently, so say Polar....
  12. I've had an MB200 on order since December, hoping it'll arrive soon, even more so hearing your report Thom
  13. Ooh, found it. Is it getting good reviews on TB then? Looks like their answer to things like the Big One and fEarful type designs which are springing up
  14. I've halved my stored stuff, still embarrassingly high at around 20MB but from now on I'll stick everything on my band's site and link from there
  15. [quote name='niceguyhomer' post='1158519' date='Mar 11 2011, 07:43 PM']Mmmm guess not [/quote] No idea what it is... Linky? Intrigued, certainly
  16. Get a second 1153, that will sound monster. And be smaller
  17. Just sold Paul my old beaten up Groove bass, 'twas a pleasure. Cheers Paul, enjoy the bass

    Apologies if there's already a feedback thread for Adam (also known as ___---___ ) but I can't find one as the search feature doesn't like his forum name, haha! Sold him an Epifani UL110 and it was a fantastially easy transaction, many thanks! Enjoy the cab dude
  19. [quote name='___---___' post='1155033' date='Mar 9 2011, 10:36 AM']Thanks for your help guys, much appreciated.[/quote] Hehe It shipped today Adam, about to PM you tracking number
  20. [quote name='coasterbass' post='1154900' date='Mar 9 2011, 08:26 AM']Wow - just saw this on the tin'ternet too. Very sad news. Dirt came out just as I picked up the bass, and then I was blown away when I discovered Facelift. Still two of my favourite albums.[/quote] +1 to all of that. Damn shame
  21. [quote name='ezbass' post='1154583' date='Mar 8 2011, 09:41 PM']Oh so not fair as the boss lady said yes If this doesn't go through PM me. Congrats to whoever scored this.[/quote] Sorry dude, had a few PMs earlier today which I've been working on, first come first served and all! Hope another one comes up for you
  22. Now sold pending payment, sorry all who were interested!
  23. [quote name='alexclaber' post='1153980' date='Mar 8 2011, 03:58 PM']This looks like it could be a perfect match with the Big Baby T that I'll be keeping for myself. Justifiable business expense, hmmm?...[/quote] Hell yes.
  24. [quote name='Chris Horton' post='1154090' date='Mar 8 2011, 05:04 PM']cool cab , Do you have any pickies of the cab ? What are the dimentions please Chris[/quote] Hi Chris, hoping to get some pics done tonight. I do have 2 interested parties already so I'll let you all know what goes on with them... Mert
  25. Straplocks are included, yes. This is now reserved for Paul (mojobass), then Gareth then Rob if any fall through.... Cheers
