The cab is the one shown in the first picture, a Tecamp S212 classic (with ceramic speaker magnets, rated [email protected]), alas the cab sold on Reverb 5 minutes ago, so only the head is still available atm.

Thanks! It´s a great amp indeed (I´ve owned three different Puma amps already, seems like I keep coming back to Tecamp.. ). Alas, I´ve just bought an Ampeg v4b and also have a Genz Benz shuttle and I´m looking to buy a Barefaced 610 to go with the Ampeg so something must go to free up some space and funds... If anyone´s interested in the amp, but not to keen on paying VAT when importing to the UK, let me know as I might have a sollution for you.

EDIT: Cab is sold now, head is still available. PS: It's so lighweight I could probably send it with regular mail and usually no VAT is charged when a package is send that way.

Oooh, I'd love this! Too bad Brexit makes most deals a lot less interesting these days or I might've snapped it up already..

No these are for stringing through the bridge only, for stringing through the body I would recommended the Labella F-MUS set, these are made for stringing through the body and have about the same tension and feel like the normal LTF shortscale set. https://www.labella.com/products/760f-mus-stainless-steel-flat-wound-30-scale/

Is there an update on this already? I'm based in Belgium and bought a bass cab here on the forum a couple of weeks ago, but due to this whole Brexit thing the U.K. based seller hasn't been able to ship it to me as most couriers are not accepting any packages for overseas shipping yet untill this whole thing clears out. Any idea which couriers DO send overseas atm? Thanks in advance! Donovan

Hi Guillaume, to most people the Sire U5 will be good as it is without any work by a professional. If you are a nitpicker like me you might want to upgrade the tuners and pickups at some point, but that's a very personal thing and mostly a matter of taste (I even mod >2000Euro basses that already have quality hardware with other quality hardware, just because I prefer a certain brand of tuners and/or pickups.. I just like to work on instruments in general, so a lot of the mods I do are not so much out of neccesity, but rather to give my personal flair to the instrument...). The gigbag I use for my U5 and other short scales is this one (a perfect fit!): https://www.thomann.de/be/thomann_gigbag_deluxe_egitarre.htm As to the Labella strings I prefer to use the La Bella 760FL-S Deep Talkin Bass shortscale flatwound set on my short scale basses as they have just the right amount of tension to compensate for the sloppiness that often comes with the shorter scale, yet they play effortlesly and have a great sound to them. Again, this is very subjective, but if you like playing on flatwound strings you can't go wrong with Labella i.m.o. https://www.thomann.de/be/la_bella_760fl_s_deep_talkin_bass.htm Hope you enjoy your new bass! Kind regards, Don

Wow, that must be my dream rig and I just sold my old amp.. Please let me know if either becomes available again.

PM'd!
