    SOLD: Mesa Walkabout Scout 15 Combo (without amp)

    in Amps and Cabs For Sale

    Posted · Edited by robgo

    I have a 15" cab from the legendary walkabout combo that I'm looking to sell. To clarify, this is the actual combo with the head removed, not an extension cab or anything like that.

    It's been used but it's in pretty decent condition, see photos below. The leather on the bottom of the handle is split (this can be seen in the photo), but this does not effect the strength of the handle as the top part, which has a metal strip reinforcing it, is the bit which takes the weight. Mesa cover included.

    I don't really need to say much else do I? If you're reading this, then you know what this is. And these things really are as good as they say!

    I'm looking for about £400. I'm based in Lincoln, and cash on collection would be ideal, you can even try it out (and compare it to my 12" combo if you're interested). If you really want me to post it, then I suppose I can, but would rather not! Sorry, I'm not going to do anything international. Cash or paypal only.

    Thanks for looking.

    Rob

    Is this still here? That must be a record for one of these!!

    Someone please buy it. I've only recently bought the 15 version, and it's so good I'm considering buying this as well!! Please remove the temptation!

    And don't let the handles put you off, I'm seriously considering doing the same to mine.

    GLWTS and all that.

    SOLD: Markbass Little Mark 2 LMII *price drop to £250*

    Little Mark II Amp head. Great little workhorse head, bought on here a few years ago, but mainly used as a spare. Has been totally reliable and never given the slightest trouble when I've used it for gigs or practices. I accidentally bought a walkabout combo, so probably need to sell this. It's in good condition, a couple of cosmetic scratches etc.

    Specs etc [url="http://www.markbass.it/product_detail.php?id=69"]here [/url]if you need them: [url="http://www.markbass.it/product_detail.php?id=69"]http://www.markbass....etail.php?id=69[/url]

    Can be collected from Lincoln, but it [i][u]may [/u][/i]be possible to persuade me to post it at your cost and risk.

    SOLD Aguilar GS112NT £200

    in Amps and Cabs For Sale

    Posted · Edited by robgo

    I have a GS112NT cab for sale. This is the no tweeter version, 8 ohm, 300 watt.

    I bought it on here from Richardd, almost exactly 2 years ago, and it's served me well, but I've just bought a walkabout combo so it has to go!!

    Beautiful sound, with a focus on the lows. Good condition.

    Can be collected from Lincoln.

    By way of an update and in case anyone else is researching this in the future, I received some very helpful advice from Jon at JP Guitars - see email below. I've gone with Jon's recommendation of the 'pure bass' pup. Excellent customer service from Jon.

    Yes, this would certainly be an option if you want an externally mounted pickup. It has a pretty even response across a wide frequency range. As it is fitted under the feet of the bridge, it is loaded by the string pressure which means that it produces pretty much the maximum gain for a passive system – and it can be driven to relatively high levels before feedback. It’s pretty thin, so doesn’t make much difference to string action.[/size][/font][/color]

    If you want a less obtrusive system, though, K&K also have a specialist acoustic bass system, called the Pure Bass:[/size][/font][/color][color=#000000][font=Calibri][size=4]

    This mounts inside the guitar, and uses a Switchcraft strapjack mounted through the endblock. This can be more reliable for gigging than an externally mounted jack socket, and is also more precisely tailored to the demands of a bass (though it is also used on tenor guitars, where it can tame an excessively bright top end).[/size][/font][/color]

    Btw, do you reckon my VT Bass would work as a pre - it does everything else!! (makes a great cup of tea!
