Wow, that was even quicker than when I sold it! Guess that's the advantage of living in/near London.

Ratman came and picked this up tonight and should be well on his way back to north London now. Great guy to do business with, hope you like it!

Sold to ratman so only took 3 hours. Mind you, the rugby was on!

Here's hoping!

I hope this is now sold, that is an incredible amp for an incredible price! I have had one for a couple of years now and I wouldn't be without it; its light (ridiculously so), has great tone and is so flexible with the two preamps and poweramps. They are wired independently so you basically have built in redundancy. Running this with my Ashdown 4x10 and a Barefaced Big One I can be heard over our far from minuscule front of house!

[left]This has not been used in probably 18 months other than just to give it a 'maintenance' run to make sure it is still working and exercise the speaker a bit. Reason being I bought a Big One off here a couple of months after the compact and have used the Big One ever since. The compact has therefore only been gigged once maybe at max two times. For those that aren't familiar with Barefaced then you should be! Alex makes cracking cabs, loud, durable and extremely light weight (this model clocks in at a tiny 12 kg) and it may be the last cab you ever need. This is the one with the sturdy black metal grill. It comes with an all black Roqsolid cover (the one without the padding to keep the weight down) which is a perfect, waterproof cover for carrying to venues in the pouring rain. and is in as new condition aside from the rubber feet on the bottom which have been replaced by slightly larger, much sturdier feet (the feet falling off was about the only complaint people have had about this cab!). [/left] [left] I'm not sure what these are going for at the moment but would suggest about £425 with the cover? It can be picked up from an OX10 postcode or I can arrange to meet the buyer somewhere within the Reading-Henley-Oxford triangle. I may also consider a trade for a Midget T (must be a T) as I have a friend who is after one and is willing to do me a deal.[/left] [left]Photos to follow over the weekend...[/left]

Beautiful basses, I just wish it wasn't in such great condition... I've got an identical Bongo that is in absolutely mint condition (still even has the barcode thingy on the back) but I'm too scared to gig it in case I knock it about so I stick to playing my best-up old Yamaha live! I have a 1979 Precision in the same position.

I've had this for probably 18 months and owing to the fact I also have a Shuttlemax 12.0 it just doesn't get used. Its a cracking amp in good condition but as I have a 6 ohm cab I need the flexibility of the individual power amps in the Shuttlemax. So it really deserves a new home. Here is the Spec: Markbass LMK The LMK is the ultimate combination of power and tonal control, in one amazingly lighweight, compact and rugged package. This head is a true two channel pre-amp, and it's built for versatility. INPUTS INPUT A (master) impedance 500 Kohm, max. voltage 15 Vpp INPUT B impedance 500 Kohm, max. voltage 15 Vpp EFFECT RETURN impedance 22 Kohm, max. voltage 10 Vpp CONTROLS GAIN CH1 -80 dB to +23 dB range GAIN CH2 -80 dB to +26 dB range LINE OUT level control on front panel GROUND LIFT switch on rear panel EQUALIZATION CH1 LOW center frequency: 40 Hz; level: ±16 dB LOW MID center frequency: 360 Hz, level: ±16 dB HIGH MID center frequency: 800 Hz, level: ±16 dB HIGH 10 kHz shelf; level -16 dB VPF (Variable Pre-shape Filter) center frequency: 380 Hz (cut) VLE (Vintage Loudspeaker Emulator) frequency range cut: 250 Hz - 20 kHz CH2 LOW center frequency: 40 Hz; level ±16 dB LOW-MID center frequency: 360 Hz, level ±16 dB HIGH-MID center frequency: 800 Hz, level ±16 dB HIGH 10 kHz shelf; level ±16 dB VPF (Variable Pre-shape Filter) center frequency: 380 Hz (cut) OUTPUT LINE OUT balanced XLR, max. voltage 10 Vpp EFFECT SEND unbalanced, max. voltage 20 Vpp (pre-EQ) TUNER OUT unbalanced, max. voltage 25 Vpp SPEAKER OUT speakon, 1/4" OTHER WIDTH 10.87 in. / 27.6 cm DEPTH 10in. / 25.6 cm HEIGHT 2.8 in. / 7.1 cm WEIGHT 6.39 lbs / 2.9 kg FOOTSWITCH CH1, CH2, CH1+CH2, mute OUTPUT POWER 300W RMS @ 8 ohm, 500W RMS @ 4 ohm POWER REQUIREMENT 100/120V; 230V; 240V 50/60Hz According to the bass centre these are available for £725 though I'm pretty sure they have been discontinued. It also comes with a Markbass Gig bag and a Markbass 2 button footswitch. The perfect amp if you are gigging with two different basses! For those not familiar with these and other MB amps, they are LOUD LOUD LOUD! I'm asking for £450 picked up from OX10 but could probably meet near Oxford or Reading. Photos to follow.

Damn, I've had an add in the wanted forum for the past couple of weeks. Gave up after my gig on saturday and just received the dispatch notice today. Cheapest I could find new was over £50 so this is a great deal.

[quote name='adledman' post='1082979' date='Jan 9 2011, 10:59 AM']you are correct in that its in no way against any rules but most people make a loss as they sell at a time when they have to for financial reasons or to fund the itch for something else. its not the end of the world and i can understand both sides of the argument.[/quote] I'm gonna have to agree with Davy on this one. He bought the bass from someone that was happy to make a deal. It's not like he set out to rip him off, or pressure him into, indeed the bass had been on here for a while without being sold so was probably doing the previous owner a favour as he needed the money. If you don't agree with him making a profit then don't buy it but I don't think its for others to jump on his post trying to be the moral police. I have more of an issue with the previous owner divulging how much it was sold for. That information was part of a contract between davy and him and should not be shared without davys permission. I believe there are laws to prevent that in the commercial world (or certainly were where I used to live). Whilst I don't personally agree with buying stuff off here for a quick flick (all the stuff I have bought is for personal use), leave the guy to sell the bass for whatever he wants - it will only sell if someone else thinks they are paying the right price!

[quote name='RichardFoggo' post='1067858' date='Dec 23 2010, 03:35 PM']I have one of these - it's like the HMS Ark Royal of pedalboards. I love it![/quote] Old, broken and now entirely useless?

[quote name='Simmo' post='1054752' date='Dec 11 2010, 10:20 AM']Really great amp for the price and a nice guy to deal with! someone should snap this up soon [/quote] Bump for new pictures

[quote name='dodgnofski' post='1048122' date='Dec 5 2010, 12:08 PM']Hi Guys, As it would seem my next Gig will be sometime around the twelfth of never ........here is my Markbass LMK Twin Channel 500w Bass Amp. In excellent condition & complete with Markbass Footswitch! Not just the best amp in the Markbass range.....IMHO, - but these have to be one of the best & most versatile Bass amps in the world today. £495 including free next day fully insured delivery.................or collect it for £475 - I'm 'still' 5 minutes from Junction 15 of the M6 Pics to follow............................ta !![/quote] I cant be bothered unpacking the gig rig from my last practice so I'm playing my LMK right now. Its been 6 months since I used it last and forgot what a great little amp it is! Great tone and LOADS of volume. To practice at home I have to have both low and mid low set all the way down or it and the Big One start annoying the neighbours very quickly! Cracking amps!

Go on, make me an offer.

Back in the country again so would like to move this on before Xmas to free up some floor space. Now £70.

Bump

[quote name='Moos3h' post='1032914' date='Nov 22 2010, 05:16 PM']Bit of a bargain methinks![/quote] Thank Moos3h, I'd like to think so too but unfortunately I also think that Christmas time isn't the best time to be selling stuff! Hopefully I'll be proved wrong.
