If ever there was a contender for 'one cab does all', then this surely has to be up there. Mine is 16 months old and is the original version but with an added tweeter which I had fitted before it left the factory. It measures a little under 30" high x little over 20" wide x 15.5" deep and weighs a very manageable 17kg. Unmarked as far as I can tell from close inspection. I have a homemade Gramma pad that the cab sits on and this raises the cab up to nearly waist height which is an ideal height for stage monitoring in my opinion. I have gigged with it twice during my ownership although I use it at band get togethers every three weeks or so. It will do everything from tight funk to classic rock and I have driven it with a Tone Hammer 500 and a Tecamp Puma 500 with equally great results. This cab will kick you in the back if you crank it. Comes with a fabulous padded cover. If you bought one of these cabs new it would cost over £600 by the time you added a tweeter and padded cover. I still have the original box, so p&p is included to mainland UK address. Would also meet within 30 miles of M5 j23 Sorry no trades at this time.

Sold a Tecamp head to Simon. As straightforward a deal as you could ask for.

Aladdin Sane was the first ever LP I bought and still my favourite after all these years. Very sad day for music and the tributes will pour in for days.

SOLD ****TECAMP PUMA 500 £365 price drop inc p&p
GILLY replied to GILLY's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
[quote name='SisterAbdullahX' timestamp='1452427490' post='2949779'] I'm guessing you're not interested in trades if you've taken delivery of its replacement.... [/quote] The [u]only[/u] trade I would consider, would be an Ashdown NEO 210 cab and that's a very unlikely prospect unless you are about to surprise me! I have gone all patriotic and bought an Ashdown ABM 1000 - the polar opposite to the Tecamp and rather like driving a Ferrari around Jersey. You never get to use anything like full power but boy does it feel good to have it! Our guitard hates me now... My reduced price [i]is[/i] a bargain indeed and someone will have as much fun as me with it, and probably not lose anything much when/if they sell it on. -

This was coming up for sale soon anyway, regardless of the recent 'news'. I bought it from Bass Direct 22nd July last year, so it is not yet 6 months old. It has been fabulous and faultless and is the only head I have ever owned that I have not fussed and fiddled with the eq. The flat sound is what I would describe as 'warm clean' and watt for watt the equivalent to the Tone Hammer 500 that it replaced in volume terms. I, like many others on this forum, am working my way through all the top brands and have already taken delivery of this one's replacement. Condition is as new. I have the original box and instruction manual and my asking price of £365 includes UK mainland delivery.

I have a 6 month old Puma 500 and sent Bass direct an email to ask if the warranty is sound in view of the situation. Here is Mark's reply: [color=#444444][font=Calibri, sans-serif][size=4]Hi -= your warranty is fine, Tecamp are just changing their name to Eich Amplification.[/size][/font][/color]

Which one is louder: Tecamp 500 or Aguilar Th500?
GILLY replied to Radchenko's topic in Amps and Cabs
My last amp was a TH500 and my current one is a Puma 500. I would say that they are very evenly matched in terms of volume output but, as has been said further up, the two differ in sound. The TH500 I had was a fabulous amp - very classy to look at, sounded glorious but the drive feature was lost on me. Aesthetically, the Puma is a little cheap looking but sounds punchy and clean. The eq points are also exactly where I like them and the 'Taste' control is brilliant. I added a second cab to my TKS 115 at yesterday's rehearsal and everybody in the band said how amazing the sound was. -
[quote name='Delberthot' timestamp='1441316066' post='2857963'] And the answer is 1/2" Fitted them tonight and as an added bonus they fit using one of the existing screwholes on the back of the headstock so no drilling required. I bought the Licensed ones from a seller on Ebay in the USA. [/quote] Would you say that the weight saving is noticeable? I have a BB1024 and thought I might go the same route until I saw the prices!

Any bass without fretboard dots. They just look unfinished to me.

Sold Nick my Stingray in what must be a record BC transaction in terms of speed from price agreement to handover. Great doing business with him and very much hope to do so again in the future.

BUMP for a significant price drop to £675 inc p&p within UK. I had a PM asking about the neck profile and finish. The neck is not in any way chunky, as some describe them, and the action is low. The neck is unfinished on this model but is polished with gun stock wax every 6 weeks or so and is silky smooth as a result.

Much respect for Geoff. Not only did he sell me a pristine Yamaha bass, but he went several extra miles (literally) when Interparcel and UPS decided not to collect it from him two days running. He ended up driving to the nearest depot himself. He was also on the phone, texting and emailing constantly whilst we both tried to get the bass away. I would also like to leave feedback for his wife, who was needlessly housebound for two days waiting for couriers!! Many thanks to you too.

I can only speak as a seller, but would recommend Gareth without reservation based on (quite) a few PMs to and fro during the sale and delivery of my Aguilar amp. I hope to deal with him again at some stage.

Bought this bass from Mansons in August 2013. The colour is Translucent Gold. Never been a fan of natural finishes but this is really classy. Body wood is Ash I believe. Rosewood fingerboard. There is one little knock on the very top of the headstock, which happened on the very day I bought this bass (see photo) but it is otherwise unmarked. 9lbs according to the bathroom scales, which surprised me because it always felt light. I should point out that I had a Nordstrand MM4.2 pickup installed, but I kept the original and it will be supplied with the bass. This alone was a £100 upgrade, and well worth it in my opinion. It still sounds exactly like a Stingray but with a more even response across all four strings and a slightly more 'contained' top end. I certainly wouldn't go back to the original, but there is that option. The bass comes with a Musicman hard case. p&p certainly an option or could meet within 30 miles M5 J23. CASH SALE ONLY THANKS.

The credit card got the better of me today and I have yet another high end amp on its way to me, so this one is now up for grabs. It is virtually unmarked and includes the official Aguilar hand bag. Great with the TKS cab that I own, pics to follow this evening. P&P included in the asking of £435 ovno

Just took delivery of one for my 2013 SR4 and it fits like a glove. Thanks for the recommendation.
