  1. I took delivery of my Monza a couple of weeks ago. It came straight out with me for a band rehearsal and then I did not get a chance to play through it properly again until earlier this evening. Here are my thoughts/opinions: The band comprises drums, guitar, bass, keys and two vocalists; we rehearse in a large meeting room that has pretty good acoustics due to a suspended ceiling. I would say we play at 4/5ths of a gig level. The Monza was quite astonishing. The cab it replaces is a Markbass 2x10 which I love for its warmth and character, the Monza is everything others have said - clean, clear, detailed but definitely not coloured. Stevie advised me to 'give it some wellie' so I did just that and could not believe how much air the thing was moving and how well I could hear myself as I moved around the room. This echoes what others have found with their Monzas. I had another play at home tonight at reasonable volume and I have to say that this cab is very classy. Although 'clean' sounding, it is by no means sterile nor does it ever get stressed as you push it. You can certainly tell that the components are of a very high standard. I would go as far as to say that they are good value for money!
  2. Bump and I should have said in my ad description that the cab is relatively light at 15kg and the recessed top handle makes it a very easy carry.
  3. Markbass TRV102p 400w 8ohm 2x10 bass cab. I bought this cab with the intention of adding an extension cab at some stage. I actually never needed to because it is a fab sounding cab as it is. Rear ported with piezo tweeter, 45Hz-18kHz 101db SPL. Sounds terrific with my Markbass LM58R head; pretty much all the power you'd need for most situations. In great condition complete with a Hot Covers padded cover, this cab has had a very easy life. I am including p&p in the price of £300 or will knock off the equivalent value if being collected. Also, happy to meet within 30 mile radius of J23 M5 in Somerset. No trades sorry.

  5. Paul bought an amp from me. Good comms and, more importantly, quick payment! I hope our paths cross again.
  6. My second transaction this year with Dave, as a seller once again. Always a quick response and great comms and, of course, he paid up quick! Top Basschatter.
  7. I bought this last December when they were on offer while waiting for the new Markbass heads to come out. I now have the Markbass so it is time to pass this on to someone else at a reasonable price. Plenty of oomph(although not 2000w as advertised I would say), a load of features including a half decent compressor, and in overall great condition(9.8/10). It is the mosfet version, not tube. Boxed and price includes delivery to UK address. No trades I'm afraid. £130 delivered.
  8. Bought an amp from Mike and couldn't believe how fast he despatched!! Lovely amp in perfect nick and I would recommend Mike as an honest and honourable Basschatter.
  9. A lot of cab for the money and Martyn is a great chap to deal with.
  10. I have one of these and it's brilliant! Why yours is still here I do not know!
  11. Just sold a bass to Dave and it was a very straightforward transaction from start to finish. Would happily do business with him again, either as seller or buyer.
  12. My goodness, over a decade since the last feedback! I have just bought a lovely Guy Pratt Betsy from this member and am happy to report that it was just as described, packed really well and Mark was very quick with responses throughout the transaction. Highly recommended!
  13. Sterling by Musicman short scale Stingray - White with rosewood fingerboard. These are great fun and a breeze to play. There is plenty of information about them on the 'net and a 150 or so page thread on Talkbass if you have a few days to spare! This one is pretty much immaculate and weighs in at under 8lbs. I have two new sets of Ernie Ball short scale strings that I am including and the gig bag that the bass came with. There are three pickup configurations - Parallel, series and single coil. All very usable and no hum. p&p is included to mainland UK or I'll meet up within 30 miles of M5 J23. Asking £500 no trades
  14. Bought new from Bass Direct November 2020 for £429. Used at home mostly and a handful of band rehearsals so in pretty much immaculate condition. Includes original box and user manual (if I can find the safe place where I put it) and postage and packaging to UK addresses. Price drop to £250 inc p&p (18/12/22)
  15. Recently sold Lozz a pedal. Seamless transaction, as expected!
  16. I have 2 TKS s112 (1x12) bass cabs for sale. I bought them as a pair thinking that I needed two but, as it happens, I only ever used one and this is in a band with drums, guitar, keys and vocals and I never found it lacking in any department. These are my 5th and 6th TKS products and every cab that I have had from them has been fabulous and beautifully put together. These cabs can be stacked in portrait or landscape. In portrait, the two together are a little bit under 4' high. Neither has a tweeter but I never felt that there was anything lacking in high end (and I have always had cabs with tweeters). The specs are below and the weight is not a misprint, these cabs weigh just 10kg each!! Both have really good padded covers. The cab I do not use is as new; The one that leaves the house is in fantastic condition but there is a glued back bit of vinyl on the underside back (see final pic) I am happy to split but for anyone in the market for a 2x12 cab, this pair together would offer a very flexible alternative. £200 each including p&p. No trades I'm afraid, I already have a replacement cab on the way. Specs: Impedance: 8 Ω Power handling (high average power test signal): 250 W RMS Recommended amplifier power: 150-300 W RMS @ 8 Ω Sensitivity[average]: 99 dB SPL @ 1W/1m Sensitivity[100Hz]: 98 dB SPL @ 1W/1m Sensitivity[max]: 103 dB SPL @ 1,5 kHz, 1W/1m Frequency response (-10db): 46 Hz - 4,8 kHz Displacement: 258 cm³ Measurements (WxHxD): 52x38x33 cm Weight: 10 kg
  17. Great bit of kit but pretty much unused of late so on offer here. Perfect working order, a couple of little paint chips and no box but I did download and print the user manual. The feet are ones I found at home as it didn't have any when I got it. £75 including postage. It will be packed well!
