    As much as I love the G&L, I've been finding it's just not me, and naturally, I've gone crawling back towards Warwick. After much picking and choosing / weighing up the pros and cons between Streamers, Thumbs, Corvettes and Infinitys, I managed to land myself a cracking deal with this beaut. It's a 1996 Streamer Bolt On (Pre LX) in Ocean Blue, with gold hardware. Had to go down to High Wycombe for it, but, well I think it was worth the trip! It needs a little bit of work, but it's an 18 year old bass so that doesn't worry me. New volume pot and jack socket are the first thing, it's just been restrung too, then it'll be getting a Hipshot and some of the marks touching in, and then a good polish. We had a quick look with some polish yesterday and it's a very glossy finish. Even better!

Looking at the body, I think it's solid A flamed Maple, though I've e-mail Warwick with pics and a serial number for them to confirm. Either way, for £600, I'm a very happy chappy!

    Ouch! That looks erm, interesting! However, looking at the twist and the location of it, it looks repairable by a GOOD luthier, IE, someone like Brian Eastwood (noted for things like the Bender Collision bass). I popped into Steve Curtis in Manchester too, and he's got a Streamer Stage in at the moment with a reversed bow in the neck, which he's in the process of straightening - I've seen him bring back some things which I'd say were well and truly gone! With the right guy, that could potentially be one of the cheapest acquired Infinitys yet!

    If you're looking at this, you probably know what these are. Introduced around 2006 / 2007, these were Ashdown's attempt at hitting the Class D market. The amp is 500 watts at 4 ohms (two 4 ohm outputs - CANNOT BE BRIDGED), and it's very light. It features programmable EQ and compression, and there are numerous channels and presets which you can use, or set your own presets. I bought it as a backup to my Hartke, but then I moved to the Aguilar and have an MXR pedal, which I can DI out of if I ever need to, so the poor thing's just sat gathering dust, and as I'm saving for a new bass, I need to get rid of what I can. Condition wise, I've been using it out of it's casing with some rubber feet, and it's in near perfect condition, with some scratches on the side, but I've retained the external case which is a bit battered, but still perfectly functional. £120 plus postage (collection from Rochdale welcome) takes it.

    Another vote for Hercules, I think mine was about £50 for a double, but well worth it!

    Yeah that's a common way to do it. Depending on which PA I'm using for a gig, I don't always need a crossover. If I'm using the smaller rig with a little desk and 1000watt rack amp, I'll use the EV system controller, which is basically EV's own crossover. The inputs are simple left and right from the desk, and then there's a left and right output for the tops, and then 2 mono outputs for the sub (so if going active you can send to a pair, or to different power amps if ising passive subs). The big desk (soundcraft powerstation 1200) has a dedicated sub out with a sub filter, with that I just feed the tops with the desk and then use the sub out to a single sub. The best thing to do is check the instructions. They'll tell you whether your desk has a send for a sub or a sub mix.

    goblin posted a topic in Basses For Sale

    I've had this for a good few months now, and it's been a joy to own and play, but I ended up with Warwick lust again, and snapped up one I've always dreamed of, so sadly, I've not got the space (or money) to keep two, so I've got to let the G&L go. So the bass itself. It's a 1997 model CLF serial code, USA model in Blueburst, with chrome hardware. Sadly the previous owner lost the cert of authenticity, so date wise I'll be taking his word for it, but he's a trustworthy guy who knows his gear well! It's a solid Alder body, with a hard rock maple neck and fretboard. Passively, it sounds absolutely great, but given the amount of switch and knob configurations, there're so many sounds available from the preamp and pickups. The pups are all standard issue G&L Humbuckers, with their trick electrical circuit. The 3 knobs are volume, treble (cut) and bass (cut), and in passive I believe one of them becomes tone... The switches are pickup select (3 way), series / parallel (2 way) and then passive / active / active treble boost (3 way). The only real blemishes with it, which don't bother me given the age of it, are there are a couple of chips on a bottom left edge (covered by forearm when playing), but they're just before the burst, so should touch in without too much issue, and there's some buckle rash on the back. Other than that, the action is great (for my taste anyway), the neck is nice and fast, and also arrow straight. I'm after £800 for this beauty, and I'll really miss it, but I've got more outgoings than in at the moment too, so it needs to go. I'm based in Rochdale, Lancashire, but I'd be willing to meet someone with it within reasonable distance, or if you PM, we can discuss courier, but ideally, I'd prefer collection! It also comes with it's original hard case, which admittedly has seen better days, but still works!

    When was Rather Be by Clean Bandit / Jess Glynne? I've not heard many bands do that yet, but it's been on the radio a lot recently.
  11. goblin
    I'm pretty sure I play more 5 than 4 nowadays! They're just so practical when it comes to funny keys I've got GAS for a Warwick Thumb or Infinity though, so if anyone wants a 5 string US G&L... I best behave there, I've not actually got it in a for sale thread!

    For band work I prefer 15s. I've got a pair of HK Actors which are 15". I've only been using one with a 1500 watt vocal PA, and it just takes a bit of pressure off the tops (EV SXs) and adds a lot more depth. You do need a good system controller / crossover though. Otherwise you're just giving a sub a full range signal, and they tend not to like that...

    Bump! Dimensions externally are 54.5cm wide, 42cm in depth and 19cm deep. For internal dimensions, take just over 1cm off each of them and there you have it Make me an offer people, I bust my car recently and have to pay to fix it's broken nose

    As it says on the tin really. It's 18 years old judging by a date I found on the ply. It's aluminium skinned and rock solid, suitable for a 3u rack sized unit (previously cased my Hartke). The lid separates from the main part, so it's possible to use as a live in case. £35 collected from Rochdale, will consider posting.

    Bit of a swiss army knife this one. Used once, still in completely original packaging with manuals and PSU - it may as well be brand new. It does all sorts this thing, including l[color=#333333][font=Arial,]evel conversion, phantom power, feedback suppression, compression, delay, subsonic filter and a noise gate. The only time it was used was on a big PA job where we had to have a set of speakers half way down the hall, so it was used for it's delay feature and worked great. However, it is only a one channel thing, so it will only do one thing at once.[/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial,]£60 posted and it's yours.[/font][/color] [URL=http://s88.photobucket.com/user/goblin92/media/More%20stuff%20to%20sell/DSCF1633_zpse2597ba5.jpg.html][IMG]http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k195/goblin92/More%20stuff%20to%20sell/DSCF1633_zpse2597ba5.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s88.photobucket.com/user/goblin92/media/More%20stuff%20to%20sell/DSCF1632_zpsca8bed30.jpg.html][IMG]http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k195/goblin92/More%20stuff%20to%20sell/DSCF1632_zpsca8bed30.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

    As my dad's decided he's holding onto his Peterson now, we've decided to let go of his HH Studio 60 bass combo. It's in very good condition for it's age, sounds great and has no issues with it. Plenty of volume and it's flexible enough for a range of tones and sounds. £100 collected from Rochdale takes it.
