  1. I've had this a few months and love it to bits but I've had a bit of a rethink on my pedal board so there is no room for it now. In immaculate condition with just a few tiny scratches and fingerprints. Dual Lock velcro on the bottom. Lovely sounding pedal and the fairy lights are very useful to keep you entertained when the guitar solo is dragging on too long. I'm sure I have the box for it somewhere but if not it will be very packed. Collection and meet up is fine too.
  2. Mine as it is at the moment. Loving the Two Notes pre amp. The Boss LS2 speeds up bass changes, I can keep two plugged in and set levels for each.
  3. I've had this a year or two but it is no longer needed. In fantastic condition and all working as it should. A few marks on the bottom from velcro. Meet up local or I can post at cost.
  4. Price now dropped to £110 Bought brand new by me last year and what a pedal. Lovely eq, useable distortion circuit, the colour preset is particularly useful. However, I've just bought a preamp with a valve in it so there's no room for this. Absolutely mint condition, everything working as it should. I'm sure I have the box for it somewhere. Pick up or meet locally or I can post at cost.
  5. Not used much and now I have an eq pedal with high pass filter built in I no longer need it. You probably know what this does but if not, basically it removes the sub sonic content from your signal. This takes a lot of hard and unnecessary work off your amp. Runs off 9V dc (50mA) with 1/4" jacks in and out. As good as the day it was made. Will post at cost.
  6. In mint condition, I only really used this for rehearsal and recording purposes. Had a rejig on my pedal board so this is now redundant. All working as good as the day it was made. All packaging, soft bag and PSU intact. Just missing the instructions but download a copy here: https://www.traceelliot.com/resources/te-transit-b-om.pdf Will post at cost or pick up/meet in the Midlands.

  7. Price dropped to £90. It’s effectively brand new so grab it!!
  8. I bought this a couple of weeks ago but I haven't gelled with it and gone back to my MXR pedal. It's mint condition, all boxes, leaflets, stickers intact. I pulled the rubber feet off to attach to my board so there is a little velcro adhesive residue on the back, I replaced the feet but they may not have enough adhesive left so there's a spare set of rubber boots for it. It's a very useful pedal, I especially liked the tilt control which is reminiscnet of the old Trace SMX eq balance control. Useful little practice headphones rig too. Posted at cost to you or pickup possible.
  9. We all know these old stalwarts. Built like a tank and sounding fantastic. I've run out of room on my pedal board so this one has to go. As you can see, it's been through the wars and has more than a few battle scars. All clean as a whistle inside. Battery connector replaced as the old ones were getting very sketchy. Runs on 18V dc and as the power connector is not the standard 2.1mm one, I'll chuck in an adapter to get past that. Will post at cost to you or you're welcome to pick up from Loughborough.
  10. I haven't the first idea why I"ve got these, I've never owned a medium scale bass so I can only assume I was half cut or hungover when I bought them. Found them the other day when I was having a sort out. They've never been on an instrument in their life so effectively as good as new. £25 posted to you. I think they're £50+ in the shops!

  11. It's a funny old do, this bass lark. You search for ages for a bass that you think is "the one" and it's love at first sight, or so it seems. The initial rush of blood subsides and things just don't work out. I bought this in March on this forum but we just haven't gelled. I'm sure we all know about Sandberg basses, impeccable quality, great sound and feel. This is basically a five string Jazz with John East J-Retro Deluxe electronics. It's as light as a feather, 3.1Kg according to my scales, so it'll put a few chiropractors out of work. Condition wise, apart from a couple of small dents to the body, it's pretty much mint. The neck is clean and free of dings and scratches. Comes with it's original Sandberg gig bag. Pick up in Loughborough or meet at a reasonable distance. I'm in Brum next week if that's any use to anybody.
  12. My collection at the moment. '64 AVRI Jazz, '11 EBMM SR5, '93 EBMM Sterling 4, home made Keith Wilkinson tribute fretless jazz, Sandberg TT5 SL, '94 Eggle Milan 5.
  13. I bought a California TT 5 super light the other week. 6lb 11oz! Debuted it last night at a small gig. Lovely instrument to play, plenty of punch and sustain. No neck dive. Our sound man was very impressed with it. Best of all, I have no aching shoulder or back as I did with my previous 10.8 lb Sandberg 5 stringer.
  14. A very painless transaction. Came when he said he would and no problems. Even the rabbit approved!
  15. This is a Fender Custom Vibrolux Reverb from 1998. Basically a modification of the ’63 Brown Panel Vibroverb reissue from the early nineties. Fender took the Vibroverb reissue circuit board and made a few modifications to increase overdrive and put reverb on both channels. This made the amp incredibly noisy. The amp has been modded back to the Vibroverb reissue circuit using the Moyer/Fromell mods so it no longer sounds like the chip pan is on anymore. Reverb is now only on the bright channel and the negative feedback loop has been restored resulting in more headroom and significantly less noise. Work done: All electrolytic capacitors replaced with high quality Sprague/F&T/TAD/Nichicon caps. New Power valve sockets. New reverb tank Captive reverb cables removed, phono sockets fitted to rear panel and vintage style reverb cables fitted. Heater wiring and balance resistors removed from PCB to remove danger of heat damage. Screen resistors relocated to power valve sockets to remove danger of heat damage to PCB. Bright cap removed from bright channel. The amp now runs quietly with minimal background noise and will make a great gigging amp. It takes pedals beautifully! The tone stacks are very Brown Panel in sound, very different to my Deluxe Reverb. The vibrato (sic) is very lush and as it modulates the power valve bias is available on both channels.

  16. A Hipshot BT1 short key d-tuner. A bit of a rarity maybe as it has the Fender logo on it. On my Stingray for a while but it's gone now so up for grabs. In very good order with ferrule and countersunk screws. Suitably road worn so won't look too out of place on an older instrument. Short tuning peg as on a Musicman. £60 posted to your door with Special Delivery .
  17. I bought Paul's Sandberg Superlight the other day. You know it's going to be a good one when the first discussion upon arrival concerns tea. Despite the kettle problems the whole transaction was extremely painless and I thank you So does my back! Highly recommended.
  18. I’d like to say a big thank you to @walshyfor getting the bass to France in tune. A fantastic service. I hope you get on well with this unique instrument @Henrythe8 cheers Andrew
  19. One in, one out. You know the score. Had this for a year, it's a fantastic bass but my '93 Sterling does all of this and more so it's up for grabs. It was made on the 5th of August 2010. All original, all working fine. A few battle scars to the body near the jack/control plate and a bit of buckle rash in the usual place. There is a little damage to the finish on the end of the headstock too, just cosmetic. It came with a couple of spare scratch plates in torty and grey pearloid. Musicman hard case too.
  20. Just had this nugget of information from the previous owner.
  21. I'm dipping my toe in the water here. I saw this back in October and was pretty much taken straight away. Went and bought it. It's an amazing bass to play, fantastic range of sounds from the Delano pickups and two band eq with passive option. You'll either love or hate the aesthetics of it. The body is a greatest hits of four of Sandberg's finest finishes. My personal highlight being the heavily distressed Sherwood Green (?) section. The attention to detail is fantastic with the bell plate changing from chrome to gold as appropriate. So in terms of electronics, it's fitted with a pair of Delano pickups, the bridge pickup having a single/dual coil switch. Pull the volume pot out and the preamp is bypassed with the treble control changing to a passive treble roll off. Comes with the original Sandberg gig bag and a comfort strap with Dunlop strap-locks. I love this bass but I think it's just a bit flamboyant for me. I'm used to a Stingray for 5 string jobs and at a gig the other night I took both and the Stingray won out. So I'm testing the water here, not desperate to sell but I'm thinking some one else will suit this better. If anyone wants to trade for a Stingray 5, we might be able to thrash something out. Meet up or collection only I'm afraid, as it has no hard case.
  22. Price dropped. Getting fed up of tripping over it in the hallway!!!
