  1. Jap reissues can be had for £400 - £500 at the moment. USA reissues should be around the £700 mark I reckon....
  2. [quote name='thebassmandave' post='106236' date='Dec 18 2007, 10:52 PM']Interestingly enough, I grew up in 'ampton - and it was little: town - Hampton in Middlesex. [/quote] Ah, I know it well.... I'm in Hampton Wick... Welcome to the board Dave!
  3. [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='97292' date='Dec 1 2007, 05:19 PM']LOL better than Amy Winehouse's garden Welcome TheBigBeefChief [/quote] As long as it's not Amy Winehouse's 'lady garden'..... if it's anything like her beehive it'd be a real mess!
  4. It is a thing of beauty, to be sure....
  5. I remember on the programme about 'rock/heavy metal' he played a galloping bassline and described it as "a red indian rhythm, often favoured by bassists like Steve Harris of Iron Maiden"
  6. Guy Pratt
  7. Walking out onto the stage at the Ariake Colliseum in Tokyo, Japan and hitting a huge low E on my Spector (through an old SVT) and feeling it go right through me as 14,000 people cheered....!
  8. PJ & Stuart at [b]Spector[/b] Mark at [b]Sound Control[/b] head office
  9. Hamer Impact bass: Fernandes 'Nikki Sixx Spector' copy: White Spector....a la 'Sting' - Synchronicity Nothing says '80's like a fretted & fretless Wal!:
  10. [quote name='Shockwave' post='105787' date='Dec 18 2007, 10:26 AM']Sounds like a Bolt on legend 4 to me.[/quote] Agreed....
  11. VERY nice collection. Congrats!
  12. I'd put the fire out.....
  13. Try repricing this at £300 - £350 & you might get a bite.... As stated above, you're currently charging more than a brand new one imported directed from Japan....
  14. +[b]33[/b] = [b]354[/b]
  15. [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='103878' date='Dec 13 2007, 02:06 PM']Hi Cetera, I'm pretty sure we met at the Wal Bash in Jan 2006 if I'm not mistaken when you brought your Wal & a lovely USA Spector along?? Great sounding basses as I recall..[/quote] That's right.... twas I...! I've picked up my fretless Wal Mk1 since then.... when's the next bash?
  16. [quote name='BB2000' post='103550' date='Dec 12 2007, 08:43 PM']I can't believe people are spending more money on LMII's in preference to this! Anyone else here use GB?[/quote] I'd like to.... but am waiting to see their great new product being released in the New Year.... Bump for this great amp!
  17. Love the Lakland, the Wal & the Eagle!! Great stuff Nik!
  18. Personally, I really like the look of the Aerodyne with the trays/covers!
  19. [quote name='dood' post='102687' date='Dec 11 2007, 01:38 PM']I can't think of one resolution that I need to make. I think most stuff I have managed to achieve before Christmas! lol!![/quote] I can! Dood.... you have to sell me your black Jap Fender P bass!
  20. If you keep the amp eq flat and do the rest with the eq on the bass it works fine.... and sounds incredible! It is a reasonably common complaint though... You could always get one and swap out the Tonepump for the standard EMG circuit or EMG BTC controls...?
  21. Take full advantage of my endorsement and buy another 'custom order' Spector at a knock down price! Get back to basics and buy 2 nice Jap reissue Precision basses.... one for flatwounds, one for roundwounds...
  22. VERY nice! Congrats! Never fancied one myself, but I played a similar one a few years ago and it had a LOVELY feel
  23. [quote name='chardbass' post='101770' date='Dec 9 2007, 04:12 PM']Ahh- so it's you. Much admiration for your band![/quote] Thank you kind Sir!
  24. [quote name='tayste_2000' post='100089' date='Dec 6 2007, 11:44 AM']If I could swap it for an EA CXL112L I'd be all over it[/quote] Sorry mate...... ....but I would swap it for a new condition Olympic White CIJ 70-78US Fender Precision, a cream CIJ 62RI Fender Precision or a Vintage White/maple CIJ 75-100US Fender Jazz......
  25. Cheers Ped! Yes, it really is a VERY transparent sounding cab. No matter what head you put through it.... it seems to compliment them all! I've heard it with heads by Mesa, Tech 21, Ampeg, SWR, GJ and Trace.... and they ALL sound great. Bold, full & rich whether going for a cutting hi-fi tone or old school flatwound thump. It is reasonably heavy.... but easily transportable thanks to the wheels and side-handles. The original EV loaded cabs like this are VERY desirable as the EV's p*ss on the more recent celestion etc replacements.... I'm VERY surprised noone has snapped this up yet for this price! Must be the time of year, financial restraints etc....
