  1. Brian bought some flatwounds off me in an effortlessly smooth transaction. Nae danger here
  2. On the close up pics they look like Elites Groundwounds to me. Do they feel like full on rounds?
  3. Here we have a USA made Ampeg 1x15 cab with substantial lockable castors. Bought used from Mansons recently for a run of small gigs where the cab worked flawlessly. There are several nicks in the tolex and someone (rather cleverly) has screwed a discrete black screw in each corner of the front grille to prevent the standard Ampeg cab warpage when the grille distorts and misshapes. I paid over the odds for the cab as I needed it urgently (£300!) but willing to take half this for a sale. https://www.mansons.co.uk/product/pre-owned-ampeg-svt-15e-bass-cabinet-10275 Ran it with a 100w ampeg tube head so never massively pushed. Specs from the website suggests this weighs 72lbs but with the chunky castors and well placed handles I don't think this is an uncomfortable shift at all. Pics to follow asap but will be withdrawn if the Mesa cab on here shifts first. It will be collection only from Bolton but could deliver within reasonable distance for right deal. Trade/Part ex with cash from my side for a Mesa cab (PH 1x15, PH 2x12) etc would very much be considered
  4. Will take £15 posted in UK
  5. Pre amp valve clearout. All were bought as tested and have all been since re-checked in my Ampeg SB12. Some good quality old valves in here. All prices inc UK P&P Mullard (original, not reissue) ECC83 - £25 Mazda ECC83 (Made in England) x 4 - £15 each Tungscram ECC83 (Made in England – Mullard codes) – £20 Brimar ECC82 (special CV type) - £15 Mazda ECC82 (I have some labelled ‘Foreign’ and some ‘English’) - £10 each Sovtek 12AX7-LPS x 2 - £20 for the pair Pics to follow and probably more to list soon. Open to deals on job lots
  6. NAD - Mesa Big Block 750.  Now to find a cab to go with it!

    Bought Martins Mesa BB750 in an effortlessly smooth transaction. He hand delivered it and we have a good gear chat over a brew. Pleasure to deal with
  8. A Squier P Bass, set up to my liking with my usual flatwounds? Nae problem
  9. SOLD ONT T'EBAY
  10. when I hear the old 70's woody but slightly fuzzy bass lines its not effects I think of its a combination of valves amps and inefficient speakers. Kinda that tone Blondie get on Dreaming? Just screams valve amp to me
  11. Cranked valve amp?
  12. Brand new, unused and still in sealed pack of Fender 9050L flatwounds. Come in new style White box that seems to have replaced the green Fender boxes. Bought a load of flats and settled on a set of more old school/thumpy ones so these are up for grabs. £20 includes postage to your UK door
  13. Anyone in here got any experience with Maruszczyk's standard issue flatwounds?
  14. Anyone got any experience with Maruszczyk's standard OEM flatwounds?

  15. Cheers Martin, DEFINITELY much lighter than a full fat SVT and the 8ohm option, in my opinion, makes it a lot more user friendly for those not playing the O2 arena anytime soon
  16. Had about 5mins on my P bass. Cut the E slightly, the rest are all uncut but have been fitted to a 4-in-row headstock. Bought as NOS off ebay but a bit TOO oldschool for me. Some say they are re-badged GHS Precision Flats. 106-45 gauge, longscale Black silk at tuner end, bare at the bridge end. Price includes P&P in UK
  17. Do old schol thumpy type flats (i.e not Fender/D'Addario bright types) without a completely dead E string exist????

      @discreet seriously funky playing Sir! What was the HB PB-50 mod...?

      @Kevsy71 Thanks... that one (v2.0) was just a headstock reshape and a Herrick Alnico Tele 51 pickup upgrade. My most recent one (v3.0) has a Herrick Neo pup, a two-saddle through-body bridge, Wilkinson tuners and a refin in shoreline gold  https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/319730-hb-pb-50-modded-version-30/  and is also strung with 9050M.

  18. Price drop to £675 collected from Bolton. I would only get this on ebay anyway after fee's and stuff. Trials still very much welcome
  19. SOLD ONT BAY
  20. Cheers mate, it does go really well with the 115. very 'full' sound that seems to fill the entire room without being boomy. Works particularly well with my flats loaded Jack Casady bass
  21. Mesa Boogie Bottle Rocket Valve Overdrive Pedal. Originally came with 2 x MESA 12AX7's but I found replacing the 2nd valve with a 12AU7 gave a much more usuable and reasonably transparent bass OD. Plus, with the right settings I have used it as an always-on pre-amp type pedal to add a little hair when digging in. On this setting (and with the 12AU7) ive found it adds hair/grit to higher notes and maintains the lower notes almost clean. Certainly no worries of low end loss here. Has Velcro on bottom and is missing original feet. Easily sourced if needed Comes with uber long power supply. I prefer collection from Bolton or local meet up delivery but could arrange delivery if absolutely necessary. Trials welcome and will supply it either in its original 2 x 12AX7 setup or the 1 x 12AX7 and 1 x 12AU7 version, your choice. On ebay at £120 - BC price £100. Pics to follow
  22. USA made Ampeg V4BH 100w all valve amp - basically a V4B in an SVT's clothes. Bought in December 2016 after it had had a full service and Revalve - there is a sticker inside the wooden casing that gives an exact date, will dig a pic out. The 4 x 6L6GC's are all JJ and from what I remember the pre-amp and driver valves are all TAD - the valve set up is:- 2 x 12AX7 - Pre amp 1 x 12AU7 - Driver Valve 1 x 12AX7 - Driver Valve 4 x 6L6GC - Power Valves A full revalve would not bust the bank (not that it needs it anyway) Never given me a second of trouble having been regularly rehearsed (1 x 3hr/4hr sessions a week) and comes with fitted Roqsolid cover. Weight aside the other big advantage over an SVT is its ability to safely run at 8ohms. I initially used this paired with an Ampeg 410he but recently downsized to an Ampeg 1x15 (which itself may be up for sale soon or could be factored in to a deal here). Never wanted for more volume, I recently run it with master on full then gain to taste so I got a little of that lovely power valve breakup without blowing windows out. Trials very much welcome with your cab/gear or mine. The amp is based in Bolton and im reluctant to post at this stage. I do get around a little bit so if you are reasonably local then give me a shout and maybe we can arrange a delivery or meet up. Do fairly regularly get down to Birmingham to watch my beloved Aston Villa (please forgive me) so again something could be arranged around that. On ebay at £750 so a basschat discount to £700 £675 seems fair. This sale is to fund an amp ive seen so could be pulled if that goes first. Pics to follow asap.
