Platypus Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 In all this scouring or Reverb stock lists, has anyone uncovered a Mesa Walkabout Scout combo ? I ask because Sound Control used to sell them - in fact I have once seen them in Sound Control London for £799 during a sale Cheers P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Born 2B Mild Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Suggestions are welcomed for where I can source some gold knobs to replace the black volume/tone ones on this Euro 6. Presumably they simply pull off, as I can't see a screw. PS They still have two Euro 4's left at £400 each ...one black cherry and one natural maple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd try Axesrus for your knobs - reasonable selection methinks. Hope the Bergies are serving their purpose. Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan[/quote] H Alan, The Bergo's are being tried out for the first time in anger this Sunday (Chainsaw @ The Roman Bath, York). Sound great at home with the Shuttle! Now that our Tom is awake (works night shift) I'm going to plug in the Spector and get a sonic fix. :brow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDM Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 That Spalted Maple 6 looks awesome, I would have tried to order it in if I knew they had any 6s Anyway, I made a thread for my [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=25168"]Euro LX 5 in Amber[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noisedude Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 As far as I can tell the five-strings are all gone now ............ so can I call some sort of dibs on the first Rebop or Euro 5?

noisedude Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 When I say "cash waiting" I should point out that I'm totally skint and will be re-mortgaging my family to buy one ... or extending my overdraft, whichever's easier. Can't let them pass at this price though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Brooks Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Just out of interest, were those of us that bought the Euro LX4's supposed to receive the outer straplocks with our basses? Obviously the strap buttons are fitted but there's no sign of the outer part, I wasn't sure if those are meant to be supplied. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niceguyhomer Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I used my new Euro LX5 in anger on Saturday night and the sound was sublime - full, punchy, articulate - all the things I want. I've been frowning at my rig a bit lately (LMII & Genz Benz NEOX 212) but all the parts combined beautifully and I'm in a happy place gearwise thankfully.

Funkydunc Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Couldnt resist, just bought an amberburst LX4 from Brum - think it was the last one. Been deliberating since news of the deal came through, fortunately it coincided with a little windfall. Spare cash and fantastic deal doesnt happen often! Cant wait!

Mike Brooks Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Does anyone know what's left out there in Reverb land? Pics of the new acquisition once some gold control knobs make their way through my letterbox later in the week. She's a beauty!!!

TDM Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) I think you're supposed to get the bit of the Schaller locks that attach to the strap too. I got them. He did say that they didn't keep them on the basses because people steal them thoigh. However, I don't think you get them on Rebops. I noticed that Cetera's Rebop 4 (when I was repacking it) that it just has ordinary strap buttons. I want a LX4 or Rebop, but 2 Spectors within 2 weeks is a little excessive for me Edited August 12, 2008 by thedonutman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't begin to say how happy I am with my purchase, having waited 18 years to resolve my Spector craving....should have dealt with it long ago. Silly boy!
