    Here we have a spector ns-94 in black gloss finish, upgraded gold hardware (black spectors with gold hardware just look perfect), thru neck and a haz clone preamp. Currently strung with fender 7150 nickels and has all the bark and growl you would expect. I do still have the original black hardware and will of course include in the sale. I need to remember that a solid p bass and flats is absolutely my thing but I always fall for black spectors after seeing Blondie live years back and falling in love with Leigh Foxx’s tone. Will chuck in a gig bag but ideally need collection from Bolton or can meet/deliver within reasonable distance. No trades currently please as I already have my eye on a mij P. Pics to follow asap IMG_2748.MOV

    The clear out continues…Ashdown drophead 30w valve bass combo. Essentially Ashdowns answer to the classic Ampeg B15 - an all valve fliptop type combo. Fitted with castors and comes with fitted HotCovers padded cover. I also changed the silver pre-amp valve covers for black ones as it just looks cooler. Power valves replaced last month with a matched russian set. The ultimate motown tone with this and a flats loaded precision bass (not included in this sale) I bought this in lockdown for something nice to play whilst i was holed up. Alas now the gigs are back on i need to fund something bigger for what we do. Collection only from Bolton or can meet/deliver within reasonable distance. No trades on this im afraid

    If you want it without the Wizards and just back to stock pups i can do £275 if it tempts anyone?

    Squier late 50’s p bass. Upgraded pups to a Wizard Thumper (£80) and wearing Elites Detroit flats. Action set slightly higher than my usual just as its my ‘Jamerson/Babbitt/Dunn’ motown bass but truss rod in full working order do can be lowered. I do have the original pups that ill include in the sale along with a gig bag but the Thumper makes this a total beast of a bass. £330 ono collected from Bolton or can deliver locally

    Potentially controversial idea - have you tried that head through a different cab?
  6. Pow_22
    I found the LB550 VERY clean, no grit at all even with a hot active bass. Also, as with a lot of Class D, it was absolutely loud enough but at the loud volume it lacked 'booty'. I much preferred the Spyder series when looking at Ashdowns hybrids

    Ashdown ABM evo II 500 bass head. Made in UK Chrome front version in wooden tolexed sleeve. Massively loud and nice beefy sound. Can dial in grit/roar with the valve drive. No longer gigging so needs a new home. £225 collected from Bolton or could deliver within reasonable distance
  8. Pow_22
    My latest toy came in a tatty but fully working rectangular hard case. Bits of tape where the missing tolex is and a lovely green fur interior. Hinges and clasps all work and it is a solid piece. If you can collect from Bolton is yours for nowt. Not going to bother with delivery on this, to much hassle

    I have Fender 7150m's on my roundwound basses. Lovely fundamental and good amount of tension for added thump

    Cheers pal, im right in thinking the blend pot is or should be bridge pup at fully clockwise and neck pup fully counter? Defo get zero volume fully counter so something defo amiss
  11. Pow_22
    So to update - i managed to get the sweep/blend pot working and got a lovely beefy sound with it set slightly to the neck pup. Alas, today its back to only working on the bridge pup side and anything anti-clockwise from the centre indent gets progressively quieter until all volume is lost when fully counterclockwise. Defo needs investigation from someone much more competent than me. Could either be neck pup or pot

    Glen matlock (standing in for Leigh Foxx) is gigging the exact same rig on the Blondie tour currently 👌

    So arriving today was my newly purchased 2nd hand 90’s NS94. Advertised as having a BTS circuit it actually turns out its a Mighty Mite Haz pre amp! However, there is an issue - the blend knob only seems to do anything in the fully clockwise position which presumably is the bridge pup. Turning it full counter clockwise gets no sound at all even with volume fully up so gets its either a pre amp fault or neck pup fault. Will get it off to the menders for a full set up anyway but here is a quick guts shot

    Oooh, local and tempted!

    Going to withdraw this while i have a long hard think, she sounded perfect at rehearsal tonight, beefy and growly. So for now at least, she is no longer for sale
  16. Pow_22
    Had quite a few messages re: trades. No an awful lot im after bass wise - always partial to a mij P but mainly (if anything) amps are my thing - Ashdown CTM 100, ashdown spyder 550, Ampeg svt III non pro. Much prefer cash sale but thought id put it out there
  17. Pow_22
    Price drop to £300 collected

    Rough looking (some pay extra for the ‘mojo’) japanese 75 RI from the early 90’s. Loaded with Wizard (before they changed) 84 pups and a kiogon loom to give a nice beefy P bass esque sound. Recently fret dressed and set up at the Guitar Surgeon in Astley. Currently wearing Fender 7150 nickels and sounding beautiful as expected. Bad points - well she is naturally road worn, whether you see that as bad or not is down to taste i suppose. Being a 70’s reissue they got it right weight wise - this isnt a featherweight bass! Only reason for sale is i just need to stop buying non P basses and wondering why they dont suit me! Collection from Bolton preferred or can deliver within reasonable distance.

    Love my UK made evo II Rc 500 head but do desperately want to give the Spyder 550 a proper go. Keeping my eyes peeled in usual places
  20. Pow_22
    Very little interest so ill probably pull for now. Any offers still considered at all but will stick it back in the mancave for now
  21. Pow_22
    Agreed. As a all valve fan boi this amp along with the Mesa Big Block are the closest ive had to THAT sound without bug power bottles. Never tried a walkabout but hear they are of the same ilk
  22. Pow_22
    So recently ive sold a lot of my ‘big’ gear leaving me with a lovely valve combo, my 75 Jazz and a few big amps yet to shift. Its the first time ive been without a P bass in years and wanted one to string with flats to leave for house jamming. I initially looked at the lovely 40th Anniversary squiers but then this popped up fairly local on Facebook . The thing is like brand new! Fret work is really good, spiral saddle period correct bridge, gold guard, decent sturdy tuners and my fave P bass colour combo. Sounds great stock but will defo be getting some flats and (when i work out how to drill the guard) a period correct tug bar. Amazing bass for the price! Will update as we bond further but the thing that gets me instantly is the eveness of the sound/tone both up and down the fretboard but also across all the strings -very even, smooth and buttert
  23. Pow_22
    Shipping may be an option soon as i have a few bits incoming so should have packing materials
  24. Pow_22
    Havent bought a brand new bass in years but really liking that black P bass, looks very classy......and im in the market for a p bass too!

    **PRICE DROP - £350 COLLECTED** Not gigging and have my house needs covered so time to let the big boys go. Here was have a slightly scruffy but fully functional Mesa 360. Ive always said the MPulse range are the closest ‘all valve’ tone ive had without using an ‘all valve’ head. 2 x Mesa 12AX7’s driving a fet power stage. House here in an SKB abs type case. Pots could do with a quick spray - i set and leave my amps and this has sat in my man cave a while. 360 very loud Mesa watts and sounds phenomenal with my flats loaded J through my ampeg 2x12. Never dialed in more than a third of the volume - never needed to! I dont have the original Mesa footswitch but it was supplied with a Randall pedal that does everything the original did - this will be included in the sale Collection from Bolton preferred or could deliver within reasonable distance.
