Fender American Elite Jazz - Ebony fretboard, Hipshot bridge

Hi, does anyone have a Shuker J bass with the custom shape? It's shape is designed with deeper cutaways to work with a 24 fret neck. I was wondering how different the body shape is from a standard jazz? Longer top horn, but slimmer body? Jon has the bodies shown on his site, but I've seen a few variations - attached pics of basses with slightly wider bodies, curved top horn...or am I imagining this? Also is the body very small? P bass size?

Anyone using Bergantino, Vanderkley, Aguilar cabs with some drive/fuzz bass?

Just need to point out that Eden recommend that you do not turn off the tweeter as it will blow the fuse in the crossover. I have always found Ampeg's 8x10 is a great amp for distorted rock bass, also most Boogie cabs. Zilla sound interesting, Barefaced seem to be the popular brand at the moment. Orange 1x15s are a classic design from the 70's, not sure if they match the early Boogie 15 sound? I played live recently through a Phil Jones C8, which sounded amazing for it's size. It liked the overdrive pedal...5 inch speakers anyone?

Hi, I'm always reading everyone's point of view regarding bass cabs, make and speaker configuration. But very rarely does anyone state what style of music they are playing, what bass, and finger or plectrum? This makes all the difference to how you hear your bass sound. I feel some cabs are better suited to certain music styles. I play a P bass with a pick into Gk legacy 800 with 2 Eden D210XLT. Mainly rock, noisy indie, punk. The sound when I play clean is great, warm and thick, but with clarity. But the cabs do not like any drive/fuzz pedals, as the tweeters become very harsh with distortion. This makes me think that the Eden cabs were designed for soul, funk, motown, country, jazz but not distorted rock. I used to use a Mesa Boogie 4x10 and this cab loved distorted bass sounds. Tweeter switched on was no problem. But it weighed a ton...45kgs? So what cabs are out there that can deal with a grindy bass sound. Is it still only Boogie and Ampeg?

Eden D210XLT are double front ported. Shameless plug...I have 2 for sale on this site.

The bass is in excellent condition, a few swirls on the scratchplate and a 3mm indentation on the neck that is too shallow to show in a photo.

Sale only, sorry no trades. Fender American Deluxe Jazz Bass V 5-string. Ash body with a maple neck, pearl blocks in very good condition. This Bass has been professionally fitted with Nordstrand Big Split pickups, installed by Anaconda basses. These pickups are very punchy and make the B string articulate with tons of low end. Active 18v preamp that has a switch to choose passive. Comes with original Fender hard case and docs. It has a small 5mm knock at the tip of the headstock that I have shown in the photos next to 5p for scale. Scratch on the control plate also shown in photos. The rest of the bass is in perfect condition. Collection preferred in Finchley North London with a drop in the price, or I can meet at London train stations.

Eden D210XLT - 8 Ohm - £200 each. Both cabs are in excellent condition. D210XLT features a pair of Eden designed 10” speakers, rated to handle 350 watts at 8 Ohms, and a high frequency horn. Great crystal clear sound from these cabs. Very good low end for 2x10s, because of the heavy duty build quality and the twin ports top and bottom. Horn volume is adjustable on the rear panel. Speakon and jack connections. I use both cabs together with a GK legacy amp for a seriously low and detailed sound. Both cabs are in excellent condition, one has only had studio use. Both come with Eden branded soft cases. Can be tried in Finchley London.
