[quote name='lozbass' post='1351394' date='Aug 25 2011, 03:03 PM']Gareth - thanks for looking and for the offer - I've always been a fan of Yamaha basses (and nearly bought a yamaha as a first 'expensive' bass). Yours looks lovely too! However, I'm not really looking for trades thanks - I have far too many basses and the office/house is clogged. I'm afraid it's got to be cash on this one. Cheers anyway and good luck with the Yammie - quality instruments[/quote] pm'd

Quite a bit of interest and a false start but still here up for trades/cash.

Looking for 170 for the head and 100 for the cab. Any interest before ebay?

PMd

Any interest? Trades considered. Great loud live rig, quality UK made gear!

[quote name='pantherairsoft' post='1340167' date='Aug 14 2011, 11:10 PM']If you fancy either of the basses in my signature and fancy chucking £500 on top... You have a deal! Otherwise... Bump for an AWESOME bit of kit (and Synth history!)[/quote] Unfortunately my spare cash is tied up elsewhere on the forum but thanks for the offer! Yes these are fantastic pedals, I have some interest so I'm hoping I don't have to resort to the 'bay.....

[quote name='markorbit' post='1340019' date='Aug 14 2011, 08:54 PM']As the title says the much revered and hard to find 'studio reference' SWR Baby Blue 160w combo. Features the great Baby Blue preamp - with defeatable semi-parametric EQ and aural enhancer, speakers include 2 x8" drivers and 1x5" for the high end. This is the original version and sounds great. Ideal for small gigs or makes a quality home/studio practice amp. Excellent condition. £320 + £15 delivery or Doncaster collection. Pics to follow.[/quote] pmd

Trades/offers considered. Cheers

Will split and open to offers!

This is my spare rig but I'm selling to buy a new cab. As you can see there is a nice Trace head from the 90s era and a powerful 600watt Ashdown 4x8 cab (a recent purchase from the wonderous MB1). The Trace is a loud 130 watts RMS and has been professionally serviced including new smoothing caps. This was done via my local music shop and means the amp performs like a new one. The rig is perfect for small/medium venues and sounds fantastic with that great British Trace sound. I'm looking at 270 picked up. Cheers (PS old shoes not included!) Amp 170 cab 100.

[quote name='xgsjx' post='1335677' date='Aug 10 2011, 08:51 PM']I was really hoping that the pole extended from within the pedals! I wish I had some spare money just now, there's a few things on here now that I'd love (including these).[/quote] What like a radio antenna? That would be fantastic but sadly not its just an ordinary steel pole with a screw bit on the end, I never trusted it so I use a small keyboard stand to get it to operational ie waist level. Works for me. These are BIG pedals!

[quote name='bassybill' post='1334554' date='Aug 10 2011, 09:13 AM']Hmmm - I still have the box. I'll look into it, but it might be tricky. Whereabouts in the NW are you? If it's, say, Manchester I could meet you halfway. On the other hand if it's Carlisle that would be a bit of a trek for the two of us![/quote] Sadly I'm the wrong end! Lancaster... have a look anyway and let me know cheers.

[quote name='bassybill' post='1334491' date='Aug 10 2011, 08:17 AM']Price drop - was £350, 10% off = £315.[/quote] If you'd consider posting - within uk - I'd be interested. Cheers

I'm putting out a feeler to gain any interest on an original set of Moog Taurus II Bass pedals dating from around 1981. These pedals are fully working and fully analog with all the low end fattness associated with the Moog synth. The pedals are essentially a Moog Rogue specially tuned to the lower octaves and a set of Moog pedals (see pic), they are non midi of course! Purpose built for bass use and pretty rare in this condition. The module sits either on top of the pedals or on a (rather wobbly) metal pole screwed into the top of the unit. The pedals come with original PSU, connection cable, steel pole, carrying sling and custom made (incredibly heavy) flight case. There is also - incredibly - the original sales invoice, user manual and overlays with suggested settings! Prior to me owning the pedls they were owned by a Genesis tribute band as there are some settings on the overlays marked 'Squonk', 'Suppers Ready' etc. I've tried them and they are pretty authentic. They sound fantastic and are in good cosmetic condition showing minor gig wear, stickers have been placed on the pedals to help with the notes! Minor issues are damage to the screw-in section to the steel pole and the PSU jack is a little loose but works as it should. There is loads of info about these on the net, the Taurus II have often been seen as a poor second to the Taurus 1s - having played both I feel they have their own merits (haven't tried the Taurus 3s yet) and are equally valid. These pedals have incredible warmth and killer bass great for all kinds of music not just prog! I'm adding a stock picture and will upload some pics of the set for sale if there is any interest. Price wise I'd be looking at 750 ish. Obviously its difficult to gauge their worth as I guess they are a bit of a niche instrument. These are for pickup only as they are really and I mean [i]really[/i] heavy. [attachment=86632:taurus2.jpg] [attachment=86633:_B6E7Zd_...8nQQ___3.JPG]

It looks original to me and I have owned several Grabber basses (still own a very early one). It may be a little later than 79 judging by the Schaller (I presume Gibson branded) tuners and the matching headstock. These basses tend to be fairly light weight but I'm unsure of the later era ones...a later G3s I owned was pretty hefty though. Grabber basses are fantastic and sound great in any rock/roots context but I don't think they are grabbing (sorry) the attention they deserve. Have a bump on me!

[quote name='G-funk45' post='1318569' date='Jul 27 2011, 07:37 PM']A quick update with some (poor) photos. At least they show you that it does actually exist. Will consider sensible offers for this as new piece of awesome.[/quote] PMd
