  1. After spending fortunes trying pretty much every flatwound out there I FINALLY settled on the bass centre elites. Current set are 6mths in and sound better everyday
  2. I love my Fender PB70. Its the bass ive had the longest and is my go to bass for everything. If I could have any bass in the world? A black Rickenbacker 4005 please
  3. Ashdown 550 Touring Spyder 2x10 combo. A proper old school sounding combo with plenty of volume and beef! From what ashdown say the preamp is taken from their Big Block valve amp (a 2 x 12AX7 jobby) with the power stage being the tour proven ABM solid state unit. I married the combo up with the Catalinbread pedal im also selling and with my flats loaded P it honestly was the closest sound ive had to my old all valve rigs. Couple of tolex nicks but nothing major. I replaced the stock chinese 12AX7's with JJ's and added some nice heavy duty castors to the amp. This is one of the original UK made units before production was shifted to China. Collection only on this one im afraid but could deliver within reasonable distance. The combo is currently at our rehearsal space in Chorley but I can bring it back to Bolton with me this week. £225 ONO. Thanks for looking.
  4. Excellent pedal to cop that SVT type sound. I used it as an always on type effect to make my Ashdown combo sound like an SVT on the edge. Really responds to dynamics of your playing and gives the feel of a valve amp. Have removed feet and applied Velcro but other than that it is in great condition £100 collected from Bolton or can post for £5
  5. I have a set of Optima Chrome flats in 100-45 gauge. I have cut and strung the E string only onto a P bass and played it for 30 seconds before realising these werent for me - a bit TOO low tension and old school sounding. The G, D and A are all completely unused and in packs. Theses are basically Pyramid Gold Flats to me!, Very oldschool and lower tension. £25 to your UK door
  6. Sorry dudes and dudettes, been away on a sabbatical.  Ill get through the PM's today and respond asap.

    1. discreet

      discreet

      Relax, dude. I didn't send you one.

  7. I have the same combo and can vouch for its awesomeness. Mine is also UK but for some reason has no option for additional cabs, just the one output on mine
  8. Will get better pics when the child comes down off the ceiling from blue sweets on school hols finding it very hard to prperly catch the crack so will get more details pics of this as well
  9. Bought an SFT pedal of Kevin. Uber fast delivery and no probs at all.
  10. Pawel bought a set of flats off me. Done several string trades with this gent and this time was yet another effortlessly smooth transaction. Nae danger here
  11. Black Epiphone Jack Casady bass. Here we have my old bass that has recently been set up by Steve @ HW Audio, Bolton with some nice vintage style flatwound strings to give a great thumpy old school tone. Good Points Recently set up and ready to rock and/or roll Flatwound strings fitted Comes with a padded gig bag - hard to find to fit these basses Bad Points A laquer crack on the neck between the nut and 2nd fret. Hasn’t moved since I got it and that includes having some pretty high tension La Bella's on in the past. Was fully checked out by Steve during the recent set up and he said the 'crack' is stable, not 'wood deep' and does not need any attention White pickguard is missing. Was when I first bought it but I actually prefer the look of the bass without it I know the crack may be of concern. It was when I first bought it of Gary Grochla of this parish but it has never caused any issues and cannot be felt when playing. Happy for viewing and testing but also I have priced this to reflect. £350.00 collected from Bolton or could deliver within reasonable distance. Not looking to post at the moment. Would consider a trade for a Squier 77 Jazz Bass in sunburst with cash my way Pics to follow asap
  12. Todays GAS - a Squier 77 Jazz Bass in burst

  13. Hmmmm, interesting AND local - dangerous! Is that thumb rest screwed in or just stuck on?
  14. Ah, cheers for that. Will give them a try although they were very unresponsive when I enquired about a new grille for a Mesa cab
  15. Been trying to get one of these for ages having used the MSS100. Nowhere in the UK seems to stock them and coming from USA at around £100 I dread to think what the customs fees will be. Anyone know any UK stockists? Ive emailed a few supposed Levys's stockists but none seem to be able to get the MSS90
  16. Probably my third or fourth time dealing with Davie. Sold him a set of la bella's in another effortlessly smooth transaction. One of the good guys
  17. Theres one of them 400w all valve Laney Nexus heads for sale local to me for under £600, must say im tempted
  18. Couple of used sets of flats. All cut for a P bass type headstock. La Bella Low Tension flats - £20 Bought used (3hr-4hr use from previous seller) and had 5 mins on my P bass. Just a little TOO low tension for me compared to my usual Elites. Maybe I need to try the 760FL's? Status Hotwire - £10 each (two sets available) Lovely smooth feel with pretty low tension. These are labled as Medium scale but fit both my P bass and Jack Casady bass perfectly with a good few centimeters clearance of the nut before the silks start. These are uncut but have been fitted and had a coupoe of hours use. Prices inc P&P within UK
  19. Bought some strings off Alain and upon swapping paypal/address details it turns out we were fairly local to each other. Few exchanged txts and a lunch hour meet up was arranged, quick bass chinwag and strings were purchased. Effortlessly smooth transaction.
