  1. Is your 800RB a proper old one with the horizontal power switch, or a more recent one with the vertical switch? I tried to find some knobs for the former a few years ago and couldn't find any. I always wondered if someone could 3D print one, or buy a non-working example from the US and use it as a donor amp.
  2. Hi, I had a similar issue with my 80's GK800RB. I found these rack ears on eBay and bolted them on the inside of the amp's case. They've worked great. Cheap too. I have linked the 2u ears for the 400RB below. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/165973127952?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=V7TM5Eg_SQ-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=TN_QcJMCSYy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  3. I love those old GK RB heads. I've got a 1986 800RB at the moment which sounds so good. I've heard very good things about the 400RB's too. Looks like a great rig, enjoy it!
  4. Yeah, I saw you had them for sale. I'm surprised as they're a great, affordable way to get a reasonable sized gigging rig, fit in back of the car, easy lift. Picked mine up a couple of years ago. Good luck with them! Need to get down to a practice space and crank the ABM.
  5. I joined this group yesterday, picking up an ABM 600 Evo IV DR. Holy heck, this thing has some volume. Still dialing it in, but sounds great so far.
  6. They might be the ones that belonged to the chap earlier in this thread who was selling 4 of them at once. I'd love to try a Longhorn but I'm 6'3" and can't help but think it'd look a bit silly on me. I'm fortunate to already own 2 late 90's Danos. A "Commie Red" DC59 and a Hodad in blue sparkle. Both have flats and sound superb.
  7. Surprised this is still here. An 800RB is a rare thing in the UK. Great price too.
  8. No way! My name's Chris and I played in a couple of bands....'Sabotage' and 'Floater' (jeez, what were we thinking?!) I think we supported you a few times back in probably early 2000's. I found my old school record a few years ago and it had Optimus Prime scribbled all over it
  9. Were you in Optimus Prime? I remember seeing an Antigua 70's P bass in Barrow back when I was a spotty teenager 🙂
  10. Curtis Novak Pickups now make a replica of these. Looks the business to me... https://www.curtisnovak.com/shop/bl-g3/
  11. I'd love this, but have no need for it! Is it long scale? Any trades? Many thanks
  12. Looks like you did a great job. It's always satisfying to work on something yourself and get the desired outcome. Bass looks fantastic too!
  13. I've followed a few of your builds over the year @kevin_lindsay and they always look spectacular. Love the pastel colours too. Great bass.
  14. Yep, lusted after these as a spotty teenager. They also came in Olympic White and Natural too.
  15. Yeah, I've tried multiple basses, cables and cabs. Just needs a competent tech, I suppose.
