    hughes and kettner

    in Amps and Cabs For Sale

    Posted

    A friend of mine would like me to sell her Hughes and Kettner basskick 515 combo for her. As i understand its immaculate having had light bedroom use only, and is based (pun not intended) in Burton at her folks place, so she would like collection from there. Sadly i have no pics but im sure you know the model, its a 200w 1x15 combo with the matrix feature etc. I think shes after £150 but drop me a pm if you are interested and ill pass you on too her!

    [quote name='stingrayfan' post='79269' date='Oct 25 2007, 10:23 AM']I'm moving to Leicester - sounds like it's the place for bass players to rehearse!

    The places near me have either beaten up Peavey stuff from the middle ages or 100w combos that have been thrased to death by thrash bands who sing about death. The only decent place we go to is a portacabin but it does have an elderly Trace Elliot combo which despite it looking like it needs putting down, still sounds good. It's the only place where I feel like I've had a good rehearsal.[/quote]


    Thats quite funny, having just moved FROM Leicester!, when you get there tell em your the Gaf replacement visit the local music forum called pineapster, but watch out for the backstabbing, bitching, insular scenesters! There is some good bass amps in some rooms (Quad is good) but there is also some junk (stayfree and big wheel) where its the ususal blown drivers and 1920s horn cabs heh heh enjoy the city!

    erm, that would probably have been a school band called mosschops, possibly the strawdaddies, or i was in a band called Gallus who became known as Scream a few years after this. As scream we did ok in the mid 90s, then doublecross in 2003-2006.

    Great basses, i had a fretless one when i was 17, before i realised it was what Duff used, i was well chuffed when i found out, sold it to get my faithful sonic blue mij jazz waaay back in the day now, and although my (now hugely modded) jazz is my baby, ive always wanted another one of those bad boys, heres a pic of me, n mine very early in the morning in a studio a loooong time ago now, in the heady days of grunge in case you cant tell! hehheh! I had stuck on a pick holder, replaced the bridge with the chunky one off my old kaman GTX 53 and colured the 'F' in on the knobs with tipp ex, al la our guitarists fender esprit ultra

    im also about to pull the trigger on a bass i have actually owned before a vwh 75ri jazz from ishibashi, i had mine for less than 24hrs before due to circumstances forcing a sale, but ive not stopeed wanting a white jazz for like two years now and its the best compromise i can find. Really id like oly white with the maple neck but that would mean building myself from WD etc so i decided just to go for the 75 again. I even had an abortive relationship with one of those 'signature' basses from buildabass

    the ones that spring to mind are Styx, Dokken, Danger danger, statetrooper, mendeed, the jellies, sikth, two bands i forget the names of but both were in the top ten a week later, on two different occasions, im sure there was more in the late 90's, lush i think, something about flowers, loads of indie acts that were big back then for about two years!, Replaced Reef at a festival once. and turned down towers of london, I may have overdone things, my memory is kinda hazy! hehheh

    glad you like it, i was floored wityh the power of mine, esp when i realised after a large outdoor gig that i hadnt plugged the jack into my 15" and id done the whole gig on just a 2X10 with the lmk!, it totally kicks ass

    long shot ...markbass cab swap EDITED 151HR for 102P

    Following the thread in amps the other day i decided to bump this...

    Hey all, since i made the move to Cheltenham i now live in a tiny little box and i can barely get my shiny new markbass 151HR
    (thank god i sold that Trace stack for those who remember it!)
    Sooo i was wondering about using two 2x10's instead which leaves me asking if anone wants to swap a nearly new, only gigged once, only left the house twice markbass 151hf cab with the tags on for a markbass traveller 102p ...and just to be a pain i still cant drive so theyd have to come to cheltenham to do the swap, but id make a cup of tea and let em play my basses!
    heres a pic
