  1. I can easily get it in a Polo (with the seats folded), and still have room for a bass case alongside. It is also about half the weight it looks! The cab is in Somerset.
  2. I now have some good packaging/padding materials, so I am adding postage as an option.
  3. Just sold a fret file to Thunderbird and it was a pleasure to do business with him.
  4. This is what Ed Friedland thinks of them: http://www.edfriedland.com/equipment/2/113
  5. I have no other reason for parting with this other than that I have had a whiff of GAS and am going after something Swedish, and it's [b][i]not[/i][/b] Britt Eklund!! I bought it to pair with my Shuttle 9.2 and it is a fantastic combination of loud, deep, warm and, above all, uncoloured. Also, being a 4ohm cab, you get the full output of your amp if you use it as a single cab - and you could certainly do just that. Condition-wise it is 9.5/10, comes with a cover, and is an easy lift. [u][b]£375[/b][/u] This is the one: [url="http://www.genzbenz.com/?fa=detail&mid=2391&sid=611&cid=96"]http://www.genzbenz....&sid=611&cid=96[/url] There is an Ed Friedland review video at the bottom of the link. The cab is detailed after 7 minutes or so. I have sourced all the necessary packaging , [b]so postage at cost is now an option[/b]. Here are pics I hope (can't stand Windows 8.1): [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/006.jpg.html?sort=3&o=2"]http://s290.photobuc...html?sort=3&o=2[/url] [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/008.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0"]http://s290.photobuc...html?sort=3&o=0[/url] [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/007.jpg.html?sort=3&o=1"]http://s290.photobuc...html?sort=3&o=1[/url] [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/005.jpg.html?sort=3&o=3"]http://s290.photobuc...html?sort=3&o=3[/url]
  6. I have one of these surplus to requirements now that I have a Shuttle 9.2 head with this function built in: [url="http://ews-us.com/item_bassmid.php?item=custom"]http://ews-us.com/it...php?item=custom[/url] There are a couple of tiny dings but other than that it is in great shape. It's boxed and instruction manual is included. Runs off internal 9v battery but I am including a Dunlop ECB004 18v adapter that cost £24 new. Asking £95 posted (UK mainland)
  7. [size=4]I have one of these surplus to requirements:[/size] [url="http://crimsonguitars.com/shop/guitar-building-tools/fret-levelling-file"]http://crimsonguitar...-levelling-file[/url] Used it once with great success, on a Tanglewood/Overwater bass, but will hardly be needing it now that I have a Stingray. If you follow the Crimson Guitars video instruction, it is not hard to get a good result and it is an enjoyable way to spend an afternoon too. £20 includes p&p (UK)
  8. I have just bought a stomp box from Rick. All dealings were by PM and I have to say that his communications were great throughout the deal. I have never received a parcel so carefully wrapped either. Buy or sell with absolute confidence.
  9. Start watching at the 8:25 mark: http://youtu.be/qGwkROLWLrY
  10. Here you go: http://youtu.be/T3Lszt2HPK8
  11. Recently took delivery of a tuner pedal from Matt. It arrived really well packed and looked new when I took it out of the box. Well pleased and wouldn't hesitate to buy from Matt again.
  12. [size=4]I recently bought this from a fellow Basschatter. It is the second generation version and is immaculate. [/size] It is everything that people say about them - incredibly light and incredibly loud but, having parted company with a Markbass set-up for this and a GB Shuttle head, I'm afraid this is just not my type of sound. If I was a gigging bassist then it would be ideal, but at lowish volumes I miss the more hi-fi sound of the Marbass cab. As it happens, I am taking deliver of a GB Uber cab tomorrow. As I say, it is pretty much unmarked. The only comment I have is that the rubber on the handle needs helping back into its slot after you've lifted the cab. The cab comes with a Roqsolid cover and I will happily p&p or meet within 25 miles of J23 M5. I would like to recoup close to what I paid, hence the asking price of £425 o.n.o.

  13. Sold Pete a combo, and traded cabs at the same time. Met up to complete the transaction and (inevitably) have a chat about gear. I have no hesitation in recommending Pete as someone who keeps to his word, is prompt if you arrange to meet, and who obviously really looks after his gear.
  14. Looks like I messed up the photo links. Trying again: [URL=http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241097.jpg.html][IMG]http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll263/gillsoles/P4241097.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241096.jpg.html][IMG]http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll263/gillsoles/P4241096.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241095.jpg.html][IMG]http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll263/gillsoles/P4241095.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241094.jpg.html][IMG]http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll263/gillsoles/P4241094.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241093.jpg.html][IMG]http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll263/gillsoles/P4241093.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
  15. Here's what the manufacturer says: [color=#020202][font=Georgia, Arial, Verdana][size=3]A more “hi-fi” alternative to the Mini CMD 121P, thanks to its larger size and 1” compression driver and custom horn. Easily upgrades to a 500W rig with the addition of a New York 121 or Traveler 121H cabinet. Designed for bass players who need power, portability and top performance.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#020202][font=Georgia, Arial, Verdana][size=3]Had from new - early 2011, although the serial plate states 2010. I paid close to £1k for it and it comes with a Roqsolid cover, which I bought simply to keep the sun off it![/size][/font][/color] [color=#020202][font=Georgia, Arial, Verdana][size=3]It has been used for home use and has left the house only twice. Other than that, I have used it for fun at home. Needless to say, it is immaculate. 500 watts with an extension cabinet - I have a matching traveler cab and the two together are incredible.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#020202][font=Georgia, Arial, Verdana][size=3]I have no good reason for selling this except that I fancied a change and have just secured a Shuttle to partner the Traveler cab that I am keeping. p&p no problem or I will meet within 25 miles of J23 M5[/size][/font][/color] [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241094.jpg.html?filters"]http://s290.photobuc...pg.html?filters[/url][user]=69429318&filters[recent]=1&sort=1&o=0 [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241097.jpg.html?filters"]http://s290.photobuc...pg.html?filters[/url][user]=69429318&filters[recent]=1&sort=1&o=1 [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241093.jpg.html?filters"]http://s290.photobuc...pg.html?filters[/url][user]=69429318&filters[recent]=1&sort=1&o=2 [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241096.jpg.html?filters"]http://s290.photobuc...pg.html?filters[/url][user]=69429318&filters[recent]=1&sort=1&o=3 [url="http://s290.photobucket.com/user/gillsoles/media/P4241095.jpg.html?filters"]http://s290.photobuc...pg.html?filters[/url][user]=69429318&filters[recent]=1&sort=1&o=4
  16. Just received a BF Compact from Chris. He obviously looks after his kit - this thing is spotless!! Communications have been great (txt and PM) and the cab arrived the day after he posted it (Yodel would you believe), his packing was first rate, and I would recommend him to deal with without hesitation.
  17. I bought an amp from Andy and could tell from the first phone conversation that he was a genuine guy. He took the trouble to meet me half way for the handover and was good enough to give me a flight case to put it in. I would recommend him unreservedly as someone to trade with on this forum.
  18. 'Wild things run fast' is one of the albums in my collection that I never tire of. The opening track 'Chinese cafe/unchained melody' is amazing and the Carole that she names in the first verse is, in fact, her friend Carole Bayer Sager. Just listen to Larry Klein's bass playing: http://youtu.be/7G333adJxbM
  19. I thought I'd have a go with flatwounds on my Stingray. Bought these strings, ran them for maybe 2 hours, and decided they are not for me. Gone back to nickels. They will only fit a MM three and one tuner set-up obviously. It's the 45-100 set. £5 to cover p&p and someone else can have a try. [size=5][b]SOLD[/b][/size]
  20. I bought this new just two weeks ago on impulse (know the feeling?). It's had a couple hours of use and is now back in the box. I have come to the conclusion (again) that bass to amp is the way for me, with no added gismos in the chain. I don't even use an in-line tuner! Here's the link to where I purchased from: [url="http://www.bassgear.co.uk/product/diamond/diamond-bass-compressor/"]http://www.bassgear....ass-compressor/[/url] I paid £225 inc postage (my receipt will be included for reference). First PM offering £175 will get it (postage paid). [size=5][b]SOLD PENDING[/b][/size]
