  1. Hi,

    Up for sale/trade is my DHA VT2-400-Bass Serial number 455.

    I bought it from Dave in November 2007, it's only been used a hand full of times as the band I bought it for broke up at the same time and I've not had a use for it since then as I've used my HA3500.

    It has passive tone controls, valve pre/power amp, line out, valve power amp (5 watt at 4/8/16 Ohms) ok for home practice levels and recording, tuner out/mute, bright switch, plug for foot switch although I never bought one.

    Price ... 300 Pounds + p&p.

    Trade ... not sure either.

    I'm Based in the North East.

    Pics soon.

    Cheers,
    Dave.

    Alpha-dave, the out of print tutor book for DB is "Creative bass technique" by Henry Portnoi. If you search on Portnoi on this forum you will find the thread that lists it and others.

    [url="http://www.vitoliuzzi.com/creative-bass-technique-by-enry-portnoi/"]http://www.vitoliuzzi.com/creative-bass-te...y-enry-portnoi/[/url] appears to be a down-loadable copy[/quote]

    That's brilliant thank you, just a brief search has shown that there really are a lot of resources out there!

  3. Aye, thank you for organising, WoT!

    It was great to put some faces to some names, I'm looking forward to the next one.

    Also a big thank you to Mottlefeeder for brining his NS EUB all the way and showing me how to bow - of all the bass bashes I've been to I've never seen the room of bassists stop playing so quickly as when I produced the wolf notes with the bow. :)

    D.

  4. I should be able to make this now. Hurrah!

    [quote name='Mottlefeeder' post='665729' date='Nov 25 2009, 11:08 PM']If anyone does want to hear this stuff, please say so within the next 24 hours, and I will tell the other users of my gear that they need to find an alternative for the day. If I haven't heard anything within 24 hours, I'll leave the gear where it is.[/quote]

    I would like to hear the NS EUB please if possible, but if it's a hassle then I can wait until the next bash. :)

  5. I spent a couple of hours at the Bass merchant trying them out, the 2x10s I could hold at arm's length (for a second), and sounded great (to me!). The only downside for me was the handles: multiple-edge handles that mean you can hold it easily in 2 hands but can't in one, making the light weight less useful!

    Lol, nice one.

    IIRC last time I saw your rig, you had 4 8*10s, did you feel that wasn't enough so needed the extra pair? Which mug helps you lift/move those?
