Old Horse Murphy

For Sale is my Boss ME-50B Multi Effects Unit. I've not had this long and it is in immaculate condition. It comes with the original packaging, power supply a handy padded bag (old laptop case) and a separate footswitch to activate the Compressor without having to programme patches etc. The great thing about these units is that the effects can be used a 3 or 4 individual pedals rather than having to worry about porgramming patches etc although that can be done too if you're more technically minded than me This is a really decent piece of kit in great condition, just sadly not being used much at the moment. I'm looking for £120 inc P&P or £110 picked up. I would be more than happy to accept a P/ex for a Korg Pitchblack and some cash. Here's what Boss has to say on this unit: The BOSS ME-50B puts world-class bass effects in a rugged floor unit with easy pedal-style control. Effects are divided into six sections—Compressor/Limiter, Master, Filter/Tone, Drive/Synth, Delay/Modulation and Expression Pedal—giving bassists a range of unique and powerful tones including new effects like Sound Hold, Octave Up and Kick Drum. Effects can be edited using 23 knobs and controlled via three built-in footswitches and an assignable expression pedal. This is the piece no bass player should be without! Floor-based bass multi-effects processor with easy analog control Killer COSM® Compressor/Limiter and Drive effects, plus T-Wah, Slow Gear and Defretter Innovative Sound Hold function for sustaining a low note while playing on top Sound On Sound recording with new Kick Drum effect for keeping time Dedicated knobs for each effect section—no menu-surfing! Easy Tone effects with Preset EQ templates for quick tone editing 3 footswitches and onboard expression pedal routed to 6 options like Octave, Wah, etc. Solid metal case built to withstand abuse

Fingers crossed, but I think they'll so the job

[quote name='Rasta' post='856573' date='Jun 3 2010, 09:18 PM']Hi mate, if you find some flats suitable for the JO5 let me know because i'm thinking of putting some flats on mine. Shame abojut the chromes as i quite like them. Good luck with the sale.[/quote] Will do mate. I think I've found the right ones now but until they arrive I won't get too excited

Bought these to fit on my Lakland Joe Osborn 5 string. Only the B has been taken out but they're too short and are suitable for a 34" scale not 35" Stringbusters are selling these for £38.80 plus P&P. These are going for £32 inc.

BUMP for added DR Fatbeams for sale. Thanks for the interest so far Both items still available.

Thanks for all the comments guys. Unfortunately this has now been traded

For sale is a John East J- Retro 01 pre-amp designed to slot directly in to a standard Jazz bass without any modification. It's in fantastic condition and has all-chrome hardware. These are great units and offer 3 band graphic eq as well as a passive bypass. Here's a link to John's website with a bit more detail about the unit and some pictures: [url="http://www.east-uk.com/"]http://www.east-uk.com/[/url] They're currently selling for £195 new and I have priced this one for £120 inc postage. I'm also selling a set of DR Fatbeams stainless steel roundwounds too (gauge 45-105) that have literally been put on to my P Bass and taken straight off again (I much prefer flats!!) These are hte Marcus Miller series with a round core construction for a fatter tone, deeper sound and smoother feel than Hi-Beams. These retail at £28.60 plus P&P, so yours for £18 inc. Thanks for looking

How much for the Cat??

BUMP also for new trade options

[quote name='Linus27' post='845825' date='May 23 2010, 04:00 PM']Man I love that Precision Nick. It would be sucidal if I asked to try it. I bet it also sounds stunning [/quote] Thanks Michael. It's a good one for sure and would match your eyes beautifully

[quote name='MB1' post='844366' date='May 21 2010, 04:48 PM']MB1. ...Neigh!... Horses are Automatic!...I'll Get me Coat! BUMP![/quote] and Saddle? BUMP for added Pics

[quote name='jwood662' post='844268' date='May 21 2010, 03:41 PM']me too, you could always take the battery out! Just kidding. Ironically enough I have a usa jazz but I want to keep that unfortunately.[/quote] Funnily enough, I did have a Stingray with a passive bypass a while back, but using it instead of the active EQ seemed as pointless to me as having a gearstick on a horse.

[quote name='jwood662' post='844131' date='May 21 2010, 01:42 PM']How bout a stingray with a rosewood board? Got one of them I'd swap it for![/quote] Hi mate Thanks for the offer. I'm more of a passive bass fan though

Yeah, I know.......I'm a cock sometimes Bought this on Sunday as a backup to my main US P bass and love it to bits. However, I have been asked to join another band where I feel I need a different sounding bass to a P Bass and would like to try a Jazz bass out. I've been caught on the backfoot here are feel foolish about this, but that's just the way it goes. This is (was) Deaver's 2008 Olympic white/rosewood P Bass which is in fantastic condition (apart from a tiny dent on the top edge which isn't through the paintwork and is only visible from a certain angle). It is strung with La Bella Deep Talkin flats, but I would also be happy to put a brand new set of D'Addario Chromes on it. It also has all the case candy, and a black pickguard I have lying around too. It's super-light (8lbs at a guess) and is one of the nicest P Basses I have ever played. If I didn't have so much sentimental value locked up in my other US P Bass I would definitely be keeping this one as it is far superior. Here's the link to Deaver's sale thread (hope you don't mind John): [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=88054&hl="]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=88054&hl=[/url] I am looking for a new Series Fender US Jazz in equally as good condition with a rosewood board (sorry no maple) and preferably sunburst or black or Lakland Joe Osborn (4 or 5 string) If you have anything that fits the bill, please let me know. EDIT sale price of £650 added by popular demand

[quote name='martthebass' post='840812' date='May 18 2010, 01:25 PM']One day I'll have my 3 bass 'set' that I'm completely happy with. On that day; hell will freeze over, pigs will fly and the Conservatives will form a coalition government with the Lib-Dems (oh...scrub that last one). Fortunately Mrs MTB never quizzes me too much, she just rolls her eyes when she sees one leave/enter the building. Are you sorted now Nick?[/quote] Would you mind if I don't answer that question? I'd hate to make myself look silly I've definitely got 1 in place, possibly 2. It's the elusive third one that keeps changing regularly.......

[quote name='martthebass' post='840747' date='May 18 2010, 12:31 PM']I never make money on basses, I'm crap that way.[/quote] +1 I share your pain Mart

Thanks for all the comments guys. It's now sold, so thanks for all the interest

[quote name='Clarky' post='838171' date='May 15 2010, 02:51 PM']Bump for a really nice bass - I have held this in my hands and its light, beautifully finished (with custom dots on the usually-unfinished Sandberg neck) and a really fast feeling neck. I would have nabbed this in an instant if I didn't already have Sid[/quote] Cheers Clarky. I thought you liked it
