Mesa Big Block 750 for sale with drive footswitch and accompanying cable. [s]£750[/s] Now [b]£700.[/b] This is a fantastic sounding hybrid amp with an 8 stage tube preamp + tone circuit. It can get big warm tones, whilst being a lot lighter than something like an SVT. The drive channel can do some pretty huge rock tones, but the regular channel can clean up nicely when laying off the gain for a tighter sound. The EQ has both passive and active mid controls for a lot of flexibility. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]They're around £2000 new: [url="http://gak.co.uk/en/mesa-boogie-big-block-750/53057"]http://gak.co.uk/en/...block-750/53057[/url][/font][/color] It's been serviced by John Kelly (official Mesa tech in the UK and of Kelly Amps fame), as one of the input jacks was knocked a little while back. It's in fully working order and has not been gigged since. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Collection or meeting around London is preferred, though would consider posting if desired (with all the usual costs/risks!)[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Feel free to ask any questions.[/font][/color] Thanks!

Now sold!

As tempting as it is, I'm mostly looking for a meaty humbucker / switching type bass rather than a jazz at the moment (though preferably a sale). Thanks for the offer though!

Thanks! PM's replied to

New year, new bump

Thanks all Ideally I'm looking to sell, but I could probably be tempted by modern/meaty/growly sounding 5 strings such as a Musicman Sterling 5 HH, G&L L-2500, Dingwall Combustion, or something along those lines?

Hi all, I'm looking to sell my BB2025X as I've accumulated rather more instruments than I "need", and I already have a BB5000 that satisfies my BB lust (for now...). Fantastic instrument that to my ears does bigger, meatier Fender-esque tones. The bridge pup sounds thicker and less honky than a standard J, and the P has all the qualities of a regular P enhanced: full bodied low end, tonnes of thump, can get very aggressive or very warm and textured. Super-charged version of classic tones. The neck has a really nice finish that makes shifting around feel super smooth. The fingerboard has a fairly flat/shallow radius, and the neck profile is slim and elegant making it one of the nicest necks I've ever played. The width at the nut is ~4.2cm. 34" scale. There's some very light scratching / buckle rash on the back which I've tried to show in the pics - it only really shows up under a bright light at the just right angle, but thought it best to mention. These are well over £2000 new! Includes the original Yamaha hard case (one of the four clasps doesn't work however). Currently strung with a set of D'Addario EXL170-5TPs. Collection from London is preferred, though would consider posting if you're happy to incur the costs (and risks!) Cheers

I have a very similar Bacchus 5-string as my main bass - this is an absolute steal at this price.
