Christmas presents....What did Santa bring you?
40hz replied to Mudpup's topic in General Discussion
Happy Christmas all! Santa (aka me) bought me some D'Addario Nickel strings. Will work beautifully with my Classic Vibe 60's P-bass. -
I had an RBX270 20 odd years ago. It was brilliant. The lightest, most comfy instrument I've ever played. Hands down - even compared to a lot of 'boutique' stuff I've had. Sounded quite snappy and punchy with the PJ setup too.

Hi all, here we have my NUX Melvin Lee Davis Preamp. Purchased the original from Andertons in June of 2024, but the DI went faulty, so they sent me a brand new one as a replacement a month ago. I've used it only to rehearse 3-4 times using the Aux + headphone jack. Selling as I'm going back to using amps/cabs, and this (or rather its predecessor) I was using directly into the PA. Here's a link to all the info from NUX; https://nuxaudio.com/product/mldbasspreampdi/ A shortened version of features; IR loader Acts as an audio interface Switchable amp and cab models (need to connect to PC to do so) Drum machine built in when connected to PC (this is a cool feature) 3-band EQ with sweepable mids Headphones input Aux input Switchable drive circuit with blend knob DI out. I'll chuck in the power supply for it that I purchased, as they don't as standard come with one, so it'll be ready to go for any new owner. I CAN post this if required ( for once!), but collection is also possible from Moreton in Marsh (Oxfordshire/Gloucestershire/Warwickshire border). Any questions, please fire away! Thanks for looking!

Hi all, Here we have my Yamaha DBR10 powered PA speaker/monitor. Bought new in July/ August 2024 and used on less than 10 gigs. Still have the manuals somewhere too! Selling as I'm going back to using cabs, as light and convenient as this has been! Here's the blurb from Yamaha; The DBR10 Active PA speaker features the same Yamaha state-of-the-art DSP technology inherited from its predecessors, ensuring superior performance and versatility, and safe, consistent operation. The DBR10 can project deep bass, clear midrange and accurate high frequencies to the outer-most edges of a very wide coverage area and can boast 700W of power. The design incorporates an optimised 50° wedge angle for floor monitoring use and is also, for its size, the most portable powered speaker currently offered by Yamaha. Max Power700W Maximum SPL129dB Frequency range55Hz ~ 20kHz LF10" cone HF1" diaphragm CoverageH90 x V60 Weight 10.5Kg Condition wise there are some scuffs on the plastic where it's been on the floor as a monitor, but the grille etc is unmarked. Also, it's not really been pushed at all and I've used the built in 70hz HPF at all times. Don't have the ability to post this, but will meet up anywhere really within reason. I'm based in Moreton in Marsh on the Oxfordshire/Gloucestershire/Warwickshire border. Any questions, feel free to ask!

Hi all, Here we have my 2022 Musicman Stingray Special in Amethyst Sparkle finish. Bought in July last year as I'd always wanted one, but a new car is on the horizon, this is being sold to go towards the deposit. It's a 2022 model, in Amethyst Sparkle, Gold hardware & Roasted Maple neck. Rosewood fingerboard with 22 Stainless steel frets. 18v electronics with 3-band active preamp. Neodymium pickup. Weight is a lovely 3.8kg. Condition I'd put at 8.5/10. The body is unmarked. A small nick on the headstock and a very small patch of light pitting on the control plate are the only marks of any kind. The nut has a slight chip on the side of it, but it doesn't affect the actual operation of it. The string sits snugly with no-issue/movement. Currently has DiMarzio Strap lock system in place, although is reversible if not your thing. Not looking for any trades or offers. Located in Moreton in Marsh, on the Oxfordshire/Warwickshire/Gloucestershire border. Will not post something of this value due to issues in the past, however, as always, I will pretty much travel anywhere aside from the outer extremities of the UK for a handover/meetup. Comes with original hardcase and Musicman accessories bag. Any questions please feel free to ask! See my feedback thread also!

I've owned or played most brands and a skip load of 5'ers. Imo, only one truly stood out with a 'wow' factor on the B string and that was an MTD KZ5. Lord knows how good the full fat USA ones would be!

Hi all, Selling my Boss WL-20l as no longer required. This is the 'L' version which does not have the cable tone simulation, with attentuates the high end a little. This version I'm selling gives you the full blooded sound of your bass. It's about a year old, has never been overcharged or allowed to go flat, and I find I get around 2 gigs out of the system when charged (which takes about 2-3 hours to top back up) Price is £70 posted. See my feedback thread + feel free to ask any questions! Thanks for looking!

What are your irrational prejudices? I have some bonkers ones...
40hz replied to kwmlondon's topic in General Discussion
Oh guys. I'm full of hatred. I'm practically a Bass Palpatine. The Phrase "plays like butter" - seriously, just F*** off. Jazz Funk and the wave of bands that ironically try to make it cool. Vulpeck etc - get right in the bin and put the lid over your head. Sunburst. Expensive P-Basses. They all sound the F***** same. Just buy a CV Squier and be done with it. Pointy Metal basses/Metal-centric brands. Absolute winner is the phrase 'upgraded' to describe modified basses. 99.9% of the time it is not an upgrade either. I want a bass stock, not someone's interpretation of one. Ashdown combos - a youth spent seeing them everywhere has installed some serious aversion. Headstock wraps. The fact I have never been able to find a compressor that sounds anything like Stuart Zender's live compression sound. -
There are some really nice basses out there that I'd take off the owners hands in a heartbeat (one in particular that's graced these pages and Facebook Marketplace), but loads of people have seemingly been taking strong hallucinogenics when it comes to pricing these days. It has really accelerated/got worse since COVID, but pricing has not yet come back down to earth. The basses remain unsold for months, if not years, on end.

Wonderful Bass! One of these was Nick Fyffe's weapon of choice for his time in Jamiroquai. Watch their 'Live in Verona' DVD - the tone is great.

Slightly off topic, but, I sometimes feel like an outlier, as I'm just as happy on a 4 or 5. It seems to invoke some bizarre tribalism in people, but really, it's not that big of a difference, or a difficulty to swap between the two, IMO. Whatever gets the job done. Back on topic, never had an issue selling a 5er - price is everything!
