Pictures to come later but up for sale is my superb Staccato '51 amp plus RC4 footswitch, cables, manual and TC gig bag. All in Great condition. Some details below. Asking for[b] £SOLD[/b] inc shipping to mainland UK. I have reduced the price to reflect the fact that the mute button has a hairline crack. I have dropped a little Superglue onto the button and all works perfectly well. The buttons cost £1 so I'm informed and are fairly straightforward to replace. Everything else is superb!

Based upon TC's best-selling RH450 head, the Staccato 51, and as such has all the unique features of the 450 such as Tubetone Technology, Spectra Comp per-string compression and integrated fast-tracking chromatic tuner. The Staccato however is voiced for Rocco's unique "Finger Style Funk" playing with accentuated highs and lows and fast, accurate response.[/size][/font][/color] [b] [color=#666666][font=open_sans, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif]Here's what TC Electronic say about the Staccato 51[/font][/color][/b] [color=#666666][font=open_sans, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=1]The bass world's response to our introduction of award winning RH450 and Classic450 has been overwhelming. Now, with the help of a true world-class bass legend, we introduce our third amp to deliver instant world-class bass tone - we are proud to present our cooperation with, Tower Of Power's Rocco Prestia on Staccato'51[/size][/font][/color] [color=#666666][font=open_sans, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=1]Think of legendary bass players and Francis Rocco Prestia features on every list. For over 40 years now Rocco's bass has been underpinning the groove for Californian funk legends Tower of Power. In that time Rocco has defined his own style and become synonymous with the much-imitated 'Finger Style Funk' that he pioneered back in the '60s and '70s.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#666666][font=open_sans, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=1]Now TC and Rocco have joined forces to make Staccato'51 - a custom-tuned version of the RH450 that's been made to Rocco's exact specification and ear. It may look like the RH450 bass head, but the sound design is completely different and meets the demands of a legend like Rocco Prestia - both on stage and in the studio.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#666666][font=open_sans, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=1]Rocco's sound design on Staccato'51 fits his legendary finger-muting technique like a glove. The full-bodied tone with plenty of highs and lows as well as the ultra fast precision response enhances the percussive elements of Rocco's playing to perfection.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#666666][font=open_sans, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=1]In addition to the sheer tone shaping, Rocco has added a touch of our SpectraComp per-string compression to tighten the sound even more. And finally a touch of TubeTone brings out the growl of Staccato'51 when really digging into those low-end notes with his powerful right hand technique.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#666666][font=open_sans, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=1]To achieve perfect tone, Rocco pairs his Staccato'51 with a stack of our RS cabinets - An RS410 and two RS212s - giving him both punch and enough low end to stand out on stage with the 10-piece Tower of Power band.[/size][/font][/color]

We mixed 15 years of amp modeling experience with 3 years of new research and development to build an entirely new amp modeling technology from the ground up. During that time, we hunted down 16 incredible amplifiers and - with the help of LA's top tube amp experts - restored each one back to peak condition. The new modeling technology uses 10-times more amplifier information than before, including single-ended class A tube stages, class AB push/pull interactions, power supply behavior, and more. The result is unprecedented, warmth, feel, sustain, and articulation for you to fall in love with.[/font][/color] [color=#666666][font=open_sans, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif]Tube amp fanatics have long enthused that their favorite stacks and combos aren't merely "amps," but instruments themselves, with playability equal to that of the guitar plugged into them.

Overwater active electronics, which gives you so much tonal variation without ever resorting to harshness or boominess! Very musical eq. The OW comes with a new Hiscox hard case. The bass has never been gigged and was originally bought by me from Overwater about three and a half years ago. There are a couple of slight blemishes on the rear of the body near the jack socket, which I can only imagine came from sitting on a stand and there are two slight lacquer marks on the front above the pick-ups (see picture). I haven't a clue how this happened and it does not actually break through the lacquer and, obviously does not affect the playability A superb instrument but having not been gigged by me I am a little concerned the bass might be slightly agoraphobic so, please help... Prefer a straight sale for a bass but will consider trades for a quality 4 or 5 string. Looking for [b]£1395[/b] plus shipping.

A very melodic bump...

A matched reciprocal type Bump...

Any adventurous souls out there?

Quite unexpectedly, a bass has become available here on Basschat that I've desired for ever! So, for a couple of days - or until the other bass is sold - the Thumb is available for a Cash price of £1200. No offers please as this is a bargain for a superb instrument.

Reduced to £100 plus shipping. This great unit needs to be used so a cheap price for such a quality bit of kit

[quote name='Kev' timestamp='1456928116' post='2993632'] My comments were based on experience and not watching a video (the Thumb I bought off you years ago, as it happens!) Out of curiosity then, what work was required to get the stuck old rod removed? [/quote] Cheers, Kev. I've heard of too many horror stories of people attacking a truss rod simply because they've seen or been told it should be a piece of cake and then wondered why they were having so much hassle. In this instance a trip to a luthier was well worth the effort and saved me a lot of sweat with a lump hammer

[quote name='Kev' timestamp='1456859917' post='2993004'] Just a quick bit of general info, these basses have removable truss rods. No tech needed, simply remove the cover, loosen the rod all he way and pull right out. To replace simply grease up and slide the new one in. Easy peasy, not as menacing as most truss rod repairs/replacements! [/quote] In an ideal world, and after watching a Warwick video on truss rod removal, yes, all a doddle. However, this truss rod was well and truly 'stuck'. A very common occurrence which requires skilled, Techie help! Totally foolhardy to try and remove a stubborn truss rod yourself. No amount of video tuition can replace years of experience built up by a skilled luthier. Anyway, at an approximate 4.7kg according to my luggage scales, here are some more pics...

Trades would include Chapman Stick, Skjold basses or Rick Turner bass...

Super bit of kit that just isn't getting used. Great condition (couple of light scratches on the underside), comes with Boss power supply and will be packed securely.
