  1. It's already been said, get one of these. I've had this about six months now and it's great. Good balance, easy to play (asymmetric neck, zero radius(flat) fretboard) and simple controls. Vol,pickup selector and tone. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/yDeIrm0.jpg[/IMG]
  2. How wide is it? I need 55cm for my Orange.
  3. [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1395958467' post='2408494'] A lot going on with my amps at the moment. I love my Red Iron amp through the '69er, retro heaven. However I have recently gravitated towards a more clean fundamental sound for my band, and the Glockenklang is great at that. The Glock is currently paired with the '69er, but will soon be paired up with the Super Twin, which arrives on Monday Then I 'accidentally' bought another head! The Trace Twin Valve popped up on BC for a very low price, and I knew it would be snapped up in minutes. I was in the middle of typing the usual "I'm not in the market, but bargain, GLWTS" post, when something made me delete that and PM the seller offering full asking price instead [/quote] The Trace Twin Valve looks great on the Barefaced, real retro. Here is my Great British set up - Orange/Barefaced/ACG. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/yDeIrm0.jpg[/IMG] The head is a bit too wide, maybe I need a '69er or a Vintage ;-) Anyone fancy a trade?
  4. Bought Will's Orange AD200B. Good coms, arrived within days and was packed to withstand a hurricane. He even managed to have it delivered the day the missus was out ;-) Over the last few years I've had Mark Bass Combo, Genz Benz Shuttle 6,SWR Mo' Bass, Trace Elliot V6, TC Electronics BH250 en BH500, but this beats the lot hands down! Cheers Will.
  5. Earlier this week I had an attack of G.A.S. I couldn't stop myself searching the Amps For Sale section. I ended up buying one, and now I'm feeling much better. Does Gear Acquisition Syndrome only refer to musical gear, or is it applied to other interests/hobbies? The abbreviation itself sounds quite young, I wonder how old it is. Anyway, I'm just glad its over. I'm off to put my old amp up for sale [size=4] [/size][size=4] [/size]
  6. Haven't been able to get onto the site for two days, and when it finally opened it was a Domain Name Site. Where has Matamp gone? I was gassing for a 200watt valve jobbie
  7. I don't suppose you have the M-Pulse foot-switch with this?
  8. I had this one and regret letting it go [size=4] . [/size][size=4]I loved it but swapping between 4 and 5 strings was messing with my head. Now I only have the 2 five string basses, easier for simple me. This is one of the the best looking basses I've seen, and it sounds great, a real beaut.[/size] [size=4]This is it on my bathroom scales, no pinpoint accuracy, but a good indication.

  9. This is still up for grabs. I had a moment of hesitation, but I think I've got over it ;-)
  10. I don't have any effects pedals but I do use my amps compression and tube drive.so I'll be going post DI this weekend and was wondering who actually prefers which an why? Obviously a mix of the two is ideal! Cheers Phil.
  11. Too late ;-) it is off to Bonnie Scotland SOLD I will miss it for sure
  12. Brings back that christmassy feel you used to get as a child. Watching the progress of my ACG Carlisle- Preston - Tamsworth ... How long before it gets to Holland ? NBD = Happy Christmas.
  13. Found some marks whilst cleaning the bass ;-( To the left of where the two grains meet there are 3 little indentations, they look like 3 white points in the photo. [url="https://imageshack.com/i/n7cwkkj"][/url]
  14. [quote name='ead' timestamp='1380356341' post='2224127'] Updated family snapshots for you ACG lovers - obviously any bass-related communication with Mrs ead must be sanctioned by me first [attachment=144830:ACG family snapshot v2 01.JPG] [attachment=144831:ACG family snapshot v2 02.JPG] In the matter of the grunge fretless, I acquired an additional p/guard from Mr C and I'm now a bit undecided. What is the view of the BC community, parchment or tort? [attachment=144832:ACG Graft with parchment pg.JPG] [attachment=144833:ACG Graft with tort pg.JPG] [/quote] I'd go parchment. In fact I bought a grunge black Jazz style with parchment scratch plate and was wondering if a tort scratch plate would be more pleasing to the eye. Having seen them side by side I'll stick to the parchment. That's a gorgeous fretless. Can't wait to get some pics up. I've noticed that a lot of people use the pics from Alan's site, probably because photographing a bass isn't as easy as you'd think.
  15. Got a new passive ACG Jazz Type 5'er coming this week so this has to go.
  16. Yeah, they look cool as hell. But Id be a right pretender with one in my hands, I havent been around the block playing hundreds of gigs. No, Id feel like a wannabe. But each to his own, they look great, except that the decals are always pristine.
  17. Only owned 7 different basses, a lot of jazzes, but no Rays or Ps. After reading this Im thinking, ive got to get me a P. Subconsciously Ive been thinking that for years.
  18. I've got a couple of things for sale and wanted to change the trade/sale value.When using the 'Full Edit' function i can change the value but when I view the edited ad it's back to the original pricing. Anyone else have this problem or am I overlooking something . I have managed to place the new valuation in the text of the ad, but it's not the same. The first thing you see is still the higher price. Hope this is in the right place.
  19. Photo price drop bump. Now 700GBP cabs not included, but flight case is. [IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img22/6525/l046.jpg[/IMG]
  20. Thanks Zapp. New photo with all the gubbins, including Japanese paperwork. [IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img32/1046/t2j2.jpg[/IMG]
  21. Now letting this go for 600GBP I have a hard case for posting but its a bit worn and beat up. Perfect for postage protection ;-)
