    These used to be mine. That’s exactly what I used them for!

    Seriously considering buying these back!! The LF is a rare find…

    That’s a great deal, I love mine. It lasts for 20 minutes if you unplug the charger after the green light goes out. If you charge it for 12 hours or more then you’ll get 3 hours out of it. Dave Green told me this!

    610 Cabs

    I have a 210 for that and am looking at another 210 but a 310 sounds fun. Then you could have two side by side....

    610 Cabs

    Muppet replied to a topic in Amps and Cabs

    I've got a Barefaced 610. When paired with an ABM 600 you'll know you'll have a need for it. It's pretty light and much more manageable than the Ampeg 610 I had once upon a time. I can easily lift it in to the back of my car.

    I had a noisy DI in my ABM 600. Dropped it in to Guy at Ashdown and it was a loose power unit.

    Yes appreciate that, but that’s a bit of an overengineered solution for the very simple problem at hand! The OP only needed ambient stage sound. I’m assuming he gets everything else from the desk or his IEM unit of choice….

    Yeah that was my starting point too, but I didn't have a H4n so spending £30 on condenser mics was the lowest cost option for me (given you're only using the H4n for the stereo mic capability), but if you have one, or a similar recorder, I'd definitely give that a go.

    I had this problem. I bought a set of two cheap Behringer C2 condenser mics, set them up in a X\Y pattern using the dual holder they came with and mounted this to a short stand, placed mid stage. Works a treat.

    I’m a big fan of the Ashdown Tonepocket, now with Bluetooth. Small and great sound.

    A deal is in the offing, thanks for that! 👍🏼

    I’m rather interested in this, but has that forearm wear been artificially accelerated, or was that how it came? It looks a lot more severe than other heavy relics I’ve seen… cheers

    Hi Karl, are you planning on taking back to bare wood? If this is the case, I use fine sanding pads and then fine grade wire wool (masking all electronics first). Then I use Birchwood Casey Tru Oil on the unfinished wood, and finish with gunstock wax. If you’re just smoothing out a sticky gloss finish or taking out dings then I just use wire wool again, but no oil or wax as the wood isn’t exposed. Lemon oil is just lemon scented mineral oil which won’t do any harm. steve

    It will end when you stop thinking you want a jazz or a PJ and buy this. There’s always a simple solution to seemingly complicated scenarios.

    Imagine being more sorted though……..

    Nah, it’s a workhorse that one, not worth the amount this one is…

    Haha good idea, but the rosewood is in ‘players’ condition and nowhere near as nice as this one..
  20. Muppet
    I’ve got a 72 with that. Keeping it though!

    It’s cool isn’t it?!

    I purchased this from GaryMac a few years ago but I’ve barely played it. The text and photos below are his, as they are extremely accurate, but I am happy to provide additional photos on request. This is a truly superb example of a P bass. Great build quality and weighing in at a very shoulder friendly 8lb 12oz. All original and everything functions perfectly. The finish is lovely, just a few dings and the paint job is still vivid. Pickguard is not buckled, just the very common crack adjacent to the output socket and plenty of pick marks . Nut measures 42mm. Frets are all good and the trussrod works as it should. Neck pocket is nice and tight. Pot codes dated 38th week of 1974. Neck end stamp. 0103-1255. Which is: P bass. Fretted maple. 12th week. Friday. 1975. The case, which I believe has always been with this bass, is an older and rarer one, issued between 1967-71. The condition is exceptionally good and the catches all function properly. It also comes with Fender hang tag and the original owner’s manual. I don’t want to post. I’m happy to meet halfway or for it to be collected. No trades thanks Revised price £2,400.

    I’m running an ABM600 IV too but mines rack mount. I’m not getting a lot of noise from the fan. I prefer it marginally over the RM800 II and it does seem to work better with my Barefaced 610, but both amps are ace.
  24. Muppet
    I have mine set at the 9 o'clock position, just for a bit. As Spyder says, I also don't like what it does to the sound above this position.

    Given that the year is of sentimental meaning to him, do I tell my Managing Director that the 1972 Precision he thinks he has, has actually got a 74 neck and 73 pots?🙄
