  1. The Elites half/ground wounds are really good in my opinion. Had them on a MIJ Jazz and sounded great
  2. With it being a CC there probably wont be any service history or knowledge of valve age. Plus as mentioned, it comes with an 8ohm cab which isnt compatible - it may suggest the head has been used long term with the cab which itself could've caused issues. Assuming everything was a-ok i would probably offer £1k, flip the cab and spend the cab money of a service with a competent tech. As @Beedster mentions also though, heavy iron just doesnt seem to shift nowadays
  3. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325672466216?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=5FL9HKvQQzW&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=oN5XbKSRQjS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY being sold with non compatible 8ohm cab so may well have been used and abused with it. Never see anything cool like this in my local CC 😫
  4. Cash Converters in Dartford with a ltd edition Skunkworks SVT! Never seen those sorts of things in my local crack converters!

    1. Reggaebass

      Can’t see it on their site unless it’s gone 

  5. Do they ever actually sell anything at those prices? I know they have the shell/corpse of what was previously a Ric 4005 thats been for sale forever and a completely stupid price!
  6. It was from Legends over at Bass Bros. Ive tried TI’s - too floppy for me. Ive ordered some la bella 760FL’s so hopefully have them in soon. More pics to follow
  7. Just doing a spot of maintenance on my Jap Fender 57ri. Turns out it was born 16th Dec 1985. Lovely bass just pondering which flats to go with
  8. Ampeg SVT II Non Pro - just to heavy and 'fancy' for the small pub gigs/shared backline gigs we did Ashdown Spyder (both 330 and 550) - superb 'plug in and play' amps Mesa BB750 - closest sound ive got to 'all valve' without actually being 'all valve' I currently get away with an Ashdown LB30 for my needs but should the bigger gigs come back then a Spyder or Mesa Walkabout will be on the shopping list
  9. Anyone here grab the vintage SVT that went on ebay for £850?  Was tempted and fairly local alas house move at the moment is eating all my fun funds

  10. Selling this as a job lot. Taken from a Spector NS-94 SSD. As such the engraved name doesnt feature on the bridge or tuners. Looking at pictures of these basses online it looks like the knobs are aftermarket ones in the usual Spector bevelled top style. These are push on rather than grub screw. All fitting screws are included with the bridge and tuners. Price can include UK postage
  11. Id say either an original 57/58 burst/maple/gold P bass or a ric 4005
  12. I also just saw their Ric from the 70's in autumnglo. Usually arent my thing rics but that one looks stunning!
  13. Aidan bought a pickup off me in an effortlessly smooth transition. Nae danger here 👍
  14. Thanks so much for that. I think that settles that my current flats are Maroooosiks
  15. Sorry for the ancient thread revival. Ive done a separate thread on some flatwounds that came on my Cabronita bass that im really liking and some suggestions are that they are maruszczyk. Does anyone who uses them have a close up photo at all please? My flats in question are uber shiny/glassy in feel, black silks at both ends BUT the above headstock photo differs slightly from mine in that teh silks on mine seem shorter
  16. Thanks for all the replies so far. Just doing some more research and some places suggest the silks on Dunlops are slightly 'coated' to prevent fraying. If this is the case then the search goes on as they are just standard silks.....
  17. I have a set of Elites Detroit Flatwounds and a set of Elites Groundwounds. Both cut for 4-in-a-row fender style headstock with plenty of winds (i only usually snip the E). Both have had minimal play time but new project requires 'orrible zingy rounds. £15 each set of £25 for both. Price includes UK postage
  18. These definitely sit in the old school camp. Never tried dunlop but ive read they are more ‘modern’ type ala chromes/fender?
  19. These came on my cabronita bass but the owner didnt know what they were. Standard brass ball ends, black silks at both ends. Glassy shiny ala la bella, not massive tension, very even and even though they are thumpy the E is not a dead thunk. Tempted to say possibly the Marooooooosik’s that are sold by bass direct but cant be sure. Any ideas?
  20. There was one cheap bass that i traded in at a local crack converters. Probably not worth much but since has become something that would be sentimental now. It was a Samick Artist Series bass but in a colour/style i havent seen before. Its exactly the same as this picture of one for sale in Turkey of all places. I bought it from Sam's Guitars in Bangor, North Wales when i was working on Anglesey around 1999/2000 and sold it in bolton around 2001/2002
  21. Fender 7150 pure nickels are my go to rounds when i need rounds. As a flats player these are the only rounds i can tolerate
  22. Just watched an old video of my band where i used a Mesa MPulse 360 live.  THAT tone!?!  Why did i ever sell it :(

  23. Taken from a MIM Fender Cabronita bass as I have replaced it with a blade style pickup. Nice beefy tone (once you swap out the terrible .22 cap in the Cabbies to a standard .47 jobbie) and would be great for someones wacky project. No stickers on this to say whether its bridge or neck but online talk is the Fenders shipped with bridge pups and the Squiers with neck ones – the bridge being a tad hotter. Fully working, adjustable polepeices and a great eye catching alternative to more ‘standard’ style pickups. Comes with mounting screws and even has the small ear clips if your bass/project requires them rather than the standard UV mount that the Cabronita takes and will be boxed and posted to your UK door within the asking price of £65
  24. Bought this for a project (cabronita bass) but no longer needed. New and unused. £20 inc P&P to your UK address
