    Hard to say without pics etc, but I've seen them go starting from around the £250 mark upwards. The older vinyl covered combos seem to be more in favour than the later fur covered ones too! Good luck.

    Thanks! It is a great bass, just have n't got space for all my stuff anymore.

    Having a clearout of stuff I dont use anymore, so here we have a black Aria MAB40 fretless in shiny black finish. Its has 2 pickups (precision and jazz types) and is active,with a volume control for each pickup,active / passive switch, tone control and pickup selector switch. Condition is excellent, with no bumps at all, just a few very light surface marks as you would expect on an early 90's bass. The neck is fine, and the fretboard is showing virtually no sign of wear at all - I have n't used it much since buying it new for a project many years ago -prefer fretted! It sounds and plays very well indeed - would make a great starter fretless or spare etc. Comes in a quality gig bag - collection preferred from East Yorkshire/possible help with delivery within say 60 miles for fuel costs/would post to mainland UK if absolutely necessary though. Looking for £100 - anyone interested? Cheers

    'Equalized direct interface' - that's a DI box to you and me! The difference with this one however is that it connects between your amplifier's speaker jack output and your speaker cabinet jack input. Handy for older amps that don't have an XLR output. Its a sturdy metal box with 3 connections on the top - 'from amplifier' input jack, 'to speaker' output jack and an XLR balanced output for sending signal to amixer/recording device etc. Also features a 'timbre' adjust trim pot on the side,(but I've never needed to use this!) I've had this for over 10 years,during which time its been used when I had an older Peavey amp with no DI output facility. Am now using an amp with one built in, hence no need for this now. It's in okay condition, good working order, and is passive - i.e. no need for batteries! Looking for £15 plus postage (probably a fiver mainland UK), or collection from East Yorkshire near Hull Thanks for looking. NOW SOLD-THANKS. [url="www.flickr.com/photos/8019801@N03/1727365471/"]

    Have n't really tried it out - was bought for me as a present,but having recently moved I can't keep amassing more guitars! It is vaguely Rick-ish, 2 pickups etc. And its black and white! Medium weight i.e. not heavy, and bit of twang to it? Such a subjective thing! Unusual and rare beast though. Both the case and the bass are as new. Any offers around a ton? (Got to be worth that - the case is £30 worth alone?)

    Am selling this rather funky / retro / wierd (delete as you think necessary!) DC Montana 77 4 string. It was a recent unwanted gift, and is virtually unplayed - still has plastic protective covering on scratchplate etc. Comes complete with brand new fitted hard case too. Looking for any offers around £125, cash on collection please. I'm in East Yorkshire near Hull, but travel around a bit, so could possibly help with delivery etc.

    Continuing my loft clearout, I have a COMPLETE set of 'Guitarist' magazines, nearly 300 of 'em! These date from issue number 1 in June 1984(!), right through to the August 2007 issue. Although mainly for our six string pluckers,the mag has catered for bassists too,with reviews and articles etc. Also includes all the relevant accompanying CDs. Everything in excellent nick. An excellent reference source spanning 23 years. These go for around the £1.50 to £2.50 mark per copy on ebay, but won't be looking for that for the set - anyone want to make me an offer? Don't want to split them,just sell them as a job lot. I'm in East Yorkshire, near Hull, but travel around a bit - mainly in the North etc, so could maybe help with delivery if possible. Any interest welcomed - cheers.

    To throw in my sixpen'orth - Just look around on big stages,TV shows,DVD's etc, and see what keeps coming up time and time again- the mighty Ampeg SVT rig. This 300 watt all valve amp coupled with the 8x10 speaker cab is still THE industry standard, some nearly 40 years after its introduction in the late sixties. This is surely the definitive set-up. In my 20 years of bass playing, it is the only amp that completely does the job, and if well looked after is supremely reliable too. Hire companies etc would n't use them if not. Unfrortunately I had to let mine go some years back - due to practical considerations of size/weight/transport . Since then, I've tried most stuff out there,a lot of it okay. The closest being a Gallien Krueger 800RB - another old design( but no valves in sight ), small and light but with a superb fat old school sound and extremely reliable. Also had an Ashdown ABM500 with a valve in the preamp which was okay too. Still hanker after the SVT experience again though - jump at the chance to play through one and you'll never turn back!
