I don't anymore sadly. With my arthritis problems I am slowly selling off pretty much all my basses. I may keep one or two and something to play through but that will be about it.

As I hope you can see from the pics, the amp is in excellent condition and is in full working order. It will come with the following: · Original manual (in colour) · Carry case with strap · Rack ears · Kettle lead There is information on the web about the amp and Epifani in general. This is straightforward amp and the simple control set make it very easy to dial in your tone. Specifications - Power: 850W RMS @ 4 Ohms, Class A/B - Preamp: Solid State - EQ: 3-band with switchable treble frequencies (3 kHz and 6 kHz) and a mid-cut control - Tone Controls: Bass (shelving +22dB @ 40Hz), Mid (peak +17dB @ 550Hz), Treble (shelving +22dB @ 3kHz/6kHz) according to Esse Music Store - DI: Balanced, pre/post EQ - Cooling: Variable speed fan - Input: 1/4" TS (470k Ohms passive, 200k Ohms active) - Connectors: 1/4" TS input, SEND, RETURN, TUNER OUT, FOOTSWITCH (1/4" TRS), DIRECT OUT (XLR), SPEAKERS (combo Speakon) - Dimensions: 3.5" H x 12.5" W x 10" D - Weight: 7.5 lbs - Voltage: 110-240 Volts - Frequency Response: 20Hz - 25Hz I would prefer collection or meet up but I am prepared to post to UK mainland as I think I have enough suitable packaging.

Ref the OP, I did the same thing myself a few years ago. Only minor difference was at the break I made my position clear that if they didn't turn down then I was on my way. They did, thankfully, but I still left the band the next day.

Fellow sufferer. I can often tune it out, but I find that if I'm in a room with a lot of folks talking I find it really hard to tune into the conversation I'm having. Quite frustrating as a part of my job is to do events/public speaking etc.

Well, I never thought the day would come that I’d be selling this bass because of arthritis. When I ordered this bass I was attempting to create my perfect version of a Gibson EB3 style bass without the things that frustrate me about Gibson basses in general. I have to say that I was, and still am, very pleased with the result. A great gigging bass with a good variety of tones to hand, from deep and rich to very punchy. Weight is just over 4kgs. The bass is in excellent condition having been cherished all its life. It will come with a gig bag. Final reduction to only £995. AGH is a small one-man builder in Leek (when I picked this up, Alex said that was pausing new builds, but that may be old info now). I also have some pics of the build process if anyone would like to see them. Spec.: · Body - Cherry with Indian Rosewood top and radiussed body edges (not beveled) · Finish - Natural satin · Scale length - 32” with 21 vintage-style frets + zero fret · Neck - 5-pc Maple/Wenge (neck through with angled 2 over 2 with Gibson-esque headstock · Nut width – 43mm · Fretboard - Rosewood with 20" radius · Side dots - Luminlay · Bridge - BadAss II · Electronics - Passive: Volume, Blend, Tone, Series/Parallel mini switch for Artec EBC4 · Pickups Neck - Artec EBC4 Mudbucker (placement per early 70s EB-0 / EB-3) · Bridge – Thunderbird-style · Strap locks - Dunlop Dual Design · Tuners - Lightweight Gotoh keys · Hardware colour - Chrome · Strings - D’Addario EX170BT I would probably prefer a meet up to hand over the bass if at all possible or collection from me if you’re nearby. I might consider a courier if either of the preferred options is not possible. Clearly there would be some additional cost involved. There’s an NBD thread here: Here are some pics. Happy to answer any questions, do more pics and for anyone to try the bass out here. Thanks for looking.

Community Fundraiser for our very own Lee650
ead replied to AndyTravis's topic in General Discussion
Done. Lee is a top banana. -
Pictures to follow later today. For sale is my barely used Valeton Bass Dapper in the original box with PSU and mini manual. I've used it maybe 3 to 4 times at home only and it was originally purchased to use as a DI into the PA. Now that I'm winding down and getting rid of stuff, this is up for grabs. It has several components, most of which are clones of well known gear: - Tuner - Compressor/boost - Envelope filter - Drive - Octaver - Chorus - XLR DI output and an effects loop £60 including UK postage.

The fret dots in the "wrong" place would not work for me, as @Stub Mandrel said, and would probably stop me from buying any kind of de-fret.
-
They certainly didn't give me any issues. No silks on these strings so no issues there.
-
My 32" scale AGH has "standard" length strings D'Addario EXL170BTs and they are absolutely fine.

Sandberg Electra TM4 – Thomann 70th Anniversary model - *SOLD*
ead posted a topic in Basses For Sale
Now sold elsewhere For sale is this Sandberg Electra model available only via Thomann. I purchased this last year and have been the only owner since then. As you can see this is a highly spec’d bass with many features only found on higher quality instruments. The bass is in excellent condition having never left the house. The neck is the usual amazing Sandberg item with a lovely satin finish so great to move around on. The bass weighs 8lbs 13oz, or exactly 4kgs in new money and balances really well. I should also point out that the neck pickup is hum-cancelling even though it looks like a single coil. Collection is preferred but I have materials to post if required. This will be at cost. Spec.: • Thomann 70th Anniversary Model • Body: Alder • Bolt-on neck (6-bolt): Maple • Fingerboard: Ebony • Neck profile: C • Scale: 34" (long scale) • Plastic nut • 22 Nickel silver frets • Pickups: 1x Sandberg-designed single coil (middle) and 1x Sandberg humbucker (bridge) • Volume, blend, treble and bass controls • Active/passive with passive tone • Black pickguard • Gunmetal hardware • Original strings: D'Addario Nickel .045 - .105 • Colour: Matt black with matching headstock Here are the pics. Please let me know if you would like to see anything in more detail. -
