  2. Sold. Boss OC-3 for sale, in excellent condition and perfect working order. Relying on multi effects for a lot of duties so this is surplus to requirements. No box, will be well packed if posted (UK insured- add £7.00). Try out/and or collection welcome.
  3. I just sold a Zoom B6 to Tim, quick payment, pleasure to deal with. Another excellent Basschatter. Thanks
  4. Sold. Zoom B6 in as new condition, boxed. Very well made, fully featured, superb sound quality, excellent touch screen and the whole unit is quite light and more compact than most of the competition. Can't justify keeping as not got any band plans presently. Collection welcome or UK insured postage for £15.
  5. I had an iamp 800 about 7 years ago, it suffered a massive drop in output/volume, took it for repair, the guy said it had been worked on in the past, sorted it, but I wasn't confident that it would be reliable long term.
  6. Thank you
  7. It has dots at the fret positions which I believe is how it's done when bass manufactured as a fretless. There are lines on the fingerboard just not high contrast, as far as I'm aware this is how they are made by zon with the phenowood.
  8. Yes, that was one of the things that drew me to this bass, also the hipshot hardware and Bartolinis (which have been my fave pick ups for a long time)
  9. These are great pedals, I really like the 'hold' feature. GLWTS
  10. It has dots but no lines, I will add photos after I have got home.
  11. Sold. Reduced price to £945. Up for sale I have this extremely rare Organic 4 string fretted bass. Made top to toe from one piece of padauk (there is a wenge fingerboard and padauk facing on the headstock). The one piece body (contoured similar to Warwick basses) and neck gives the bass a very good sustain and excellent tonal quality. I believe Organic guitars were trading sometime between 2000 and 2012 (bit of a guess) the website still appears under 'Organic Guitars' even though they have long ceased production. A number of guitars and one bass were available. Here's some blurb and pictures from the site: Duncan Wales of Organic Guitars mixes modern guitar making techniques with time-honored materials and tone woods to produce quality acoustic and electric instruments. Old world luthiery and modern innovation is the hallmark of Organic. Duncan Wales , master luthier, has built several signature models for the UK based company and they display the finest in both electronic achievement and body style development. Trained at "The Totnes School of Guitar Making", Duncan combines his engineering background with traditional luthier's skills. The Organic bass benefits from the same design and construction elements of the guitar range and as such has the same tight fast response and colourful warm sonic footprint. Organic basses are available in either 4, 5 or 6 string format and the electronics configuration is the customers preference. We work with a variety of woods to ensure the right tone and aesthetic value is achieved for each. Featuring a solid African Padauk body and neck with a Wenge fretboard. Prices from £2,500 The bass is equipped with bartolini pick ups and preamp along with hipshot bridge and tuners. 34" scale length, weight is 8 pounds 4 ounces (3.74 kilos). Some very minor scratches on the upper bout rear of body and a tiny dent on the back of the neck which are shown in my photos. Ritter gig bag included. Incorporating some nice nice design features: recessed bridge and control knobs, through body or or usual bridge stringing options and magnetic truss rod cover. Try outs and collection welcome or can arrange a meet up within 30 miles of Daventry.
  12. Thank you,I'm a lefty too, just learnt right handed instead.
  13. SOLD. Zon Sonus 4 string fretless Bass, Ash body, composite neck, JJ bartolini pick ups and active circuit. Up for sale is a truly astounding bass made by Joe Zon. It is very light-weight, coming in at 7 lbs, 13 ounces (3.53 kilos) The body is centre-seam two-piece solid ash, ergonomic and comfortable as can be, with an exaggerated belly-cut and forearm bevel. It has two Bartolini J-bass pickups and a Bartolini active 2-band EQ on a stacked, center-detent pot, in addition to a master volume and master centre-detent pickup blend control. This bass is in really nice condition, with a couple very minor nicks on the headstock and the end of the fingerboard with a virtually unmarked body. The phenowood fingerboard has some tiny almost invisible scratching from playing, it is so hard that whichever strings are used there are no issues. Currently strung with some rather nice Optima gold round wounds (50 to 105), included will be the plush tgi soft case or a hiscox hard case if preferred. The Zon Sonus model from this period have carbon-fibre composite necks. This is what Zon says about their composite necks: “The object of using composites for our necks is to integrate the stability and performance of these materials in a manner that enhances the tonal characteristics, reliability, and consistency of our basses, without losing the warmth and personality. “Our basses’ necks are fabricated in our Redwood City, California, facility. The base material is carbon fibre, developed for the aerospace industry. Carbon fibre is rayon extruded under extreme heat and pressure, a process that changes its molecular structure on a subatomic level. Engineered to have the highest strength-to-weight ratio possible (it’s six times stronger than steel), it also has the highest coefficient of stiffness and the lowest thermal coefficient, offering great stability and strength under compression, as well as tension. “However, carbon fibre isn’t the only material we employ. Our proprietary “recipe” incorporates wood and other materials, which allows us to tune the necks so every instrument retains that organic and musical earthiness so pleasingly familiar to the ear. “Because the neck has a “flatter” frequency response, it has less effect on coloring the wood body’s tone, therefore letting its true voice come through. With the neck material being so dense, the bass is very “live” and responsive. This condition is a function of a faster attack whereby the note comes into focus almost immediately and then swells with richness. Consequently, the tone has more clarity and the notes exhibit improved detail, projection, sustain, and evenness in volume, all across the fingerboard. This definition is particularly beneficial in lowered tunings, where the notes are usually lost or muddy. Instead, lowered tunings retain their clarity and don’t hide in the mix of the other instruments. “While the concept of using this material for a neck may seem unfamiliar, the feel of our necks is not. Contoured after some of the classic shapes we’ve come to know and love, the profile of our necks feels very natural to the hand and all of them are extremely comfortable and easy to play. The action is fast and smooth, making them suitable for any playing technique. Graphite string nuts are installed for the string-to-string evenness of tone and durability they offer.” The scale length is 34", there are no neck or electronics issues at all. The instrument is in perfect playing condition. Collection preferred or could meet up somewhere within a 30 mile radius of Daventry.

  19. Mike has some great TE gear, I purchased a GP11 Mark 5 preamp from him a few months ago and it sounds lovely with whatever it's paired with.
  20. Thanks for the comments gents, I suspect if I put a new set of strings on it would sound even better and I will be thinking twice about selling.
