Geddys nose

Elderly's had one (SB1) for about £400 inc shipping & taxes I was very tempted with that and it looked like Keith Christopher's sunburst one from the band Homemade Sin.

The 400+ is fixed bias so you have to be careful which valves you put in so they are within tolerances with the fixed bias so I doubt you tec would have biased the amp, also after 4 weeks the caps might have discharged all their stored electric so when you turn your amp on it draws too much current first which produced heat & stress on the amp and can lead to problems, be worth seeking help Asap.

Bought John SB-2 off him and its a superb bass at a great price, John kept me informed all along and as all his feedback says he's a great guy to deal with. Thanks again.

[quote name='Big_Stu' post='934104' date='Aug 23 2010, 07:57 PM']Valve amp Specialist; Preston, Lancs. Just had my Hiwatt 200 in to an Amp Tech that I had recommended by a local music shop. It had a constant loud background hum that I had been told online could be down to an imminent cap failure or power tube problems. I left it with the new (to me) tech who looked over it very quickly, checked it couldn't be my beloved GEC KT88s, not the caps & eventually tracked it down to a bad ground. What I was dreading could have been a slightly expensive cap job, or a disastrous re-valve was fixed & covered by his standard fee for an investigation. I'm sure there are some who would have said they did more, replaced unnnecessary part etc & charged accordingly. Very courteous, very prompt, knowledgable (builds his own amps too) and for me one reassurance was seeing the use of cabs & guitars to check with too & not just a multi-meter. He's also very accesible with a nearby motorway link within 5 mins of his premises. No hesitation in recommending DPE Services in Preston Lancashire. Tel 01772 715097.

Tony bought my Hipshot Ric Bridge he paid instantly and was a true gent, Thanks Again.

Not me but a real sound guy from our emails,Always a great pity when people sell up but I said I would link it on here- [url="http://shop.ebay.co.uk/gripper22000/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p4340"]http://shop.ebay.co.uk/gripper22000/m.html...p;_trksid=p4340[/url] The Orange is set with no reserve..

Like Groundhog Day This- Bought my Ric off me he's a really top man and it was a pleasure to meet him, everyone should listen to his band they play some great stuff reminds me of 'Wilco' quite a lot. Anyway He's Bought another Ric off me and he's still a top man and I'll probably see him again when I buy another Ric and sell it to him

My first good bass was a white one like above, really great necks and a joy to play, sold it for £199 years back wish I still had mine.

Interesting, My second bass was a Ultra P and I always thought the hardware/PU was top class as was the overall sound I just presumed they did a J type too.

Jeez that was cheap ,there was a Marleaux that went yesterday for £450 and that was a £1800+ bass when new, Not good for selling at the 'mo.

Love the look and sound of this- [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Brand-New-2010-Godin-Shifter-Trans-Cream-Bass-w-Case-/320567723182?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Guitar&hash=item4aa35344ae"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Brand-New-2010-Godin...=item4aa35344ae[/url] [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMfKWxH7xlQ&hd=1"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMfKWxH7xlQ&hd=1[/url] Always rated the guitars but never really the basses but this just ticks all the boxes for me and as most Godin stuff a good price too.

Amazing, it'll go for £1150 + now

Can you play Pick Up The Pieces..

I had a 103 and it does have 3 speakers, it was the best combo I've ever owned it did not need help at all in the volume department at all, in fact there's a used one on Bass Direct's website. If you can get it at a good price and can look at it before you buy to check which model it is I would say buy it.

Does anyone know the type of bulb to get for a replacement for this and where to buy them? Cheers

Swapped a bass with Prime/Stephen he sent it quickly and it was just as he said, Good guy would deal with him again anytime. Thanks Again.

Apart from the Typo in the price of the Rh450 (£11099 ) the Bundled 2x RS410, RH450/pedal seems way too cheap might be worth a punt for someone. [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/TCE_Rigs.html"]http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_sp...s/TCE_Rigs.html[/url]
