Whilst I am not desperate to sell this bass, I could do with the space so I will listen to sensible offers. If you think I am off with the asking price, shoot me a pm - I will not be offended 😎

Next to go in my surplus gear clear out is my Radial BassBone two-channel preamp/DI pedal. I’ve owned this for a long while, and is a Swiss Army knife for bass players. Two channels, one with full eq (high, mid, low), the second with two pre-shapes or flat response. Separate level controls for each channel along with a foot switchable boost. Two separate inputs allows you to balance input volumes between say a fretted and fretless bass, bass and EUB, or passive and active basses. Built like a brick outside toilet, with a full metal enclosure, and it includes the legendary Radial DI out (on XLR) with a ground lift that your sound guy will love. Comes with original owners manual and power supply (Note: this is 15V 400mA centre positive supply). 8/10 condition-wise and fully functioning. Collection from Killingworth, North Tyneside or let’s talk about postage. Reason for sale, too much gear and this has been replaced in my rig by the EBS Stanley Clarke.

Next up in the ‘I have too much gear’ sale is my SWR Marcus Miller Preamp. This is a fully featured 2U bass preamp with just about every conceivable feature including: 1) gain control, mute switch, and input pad (-10db). Two input jacks on the front panel with a switch to choose between them, and a third parallel input on the back panel. 2) The famous (or infamous) SWR aural enhancer tweaked for Marcus’s preferred response, but including a pull to defeat feature. 3) five-band eq including three (low mid, mid, and high mid) semi-parametric mid control foot switchable should you wish to. This thing is a tone monster - whatever you want its in there. 4) Parallel FX loop blend control and foot switchable effects loop. 5) master volume. 6) foot switchable fully featured compressor including controls for threshold, ratio, attack, and release. Push button switch to choose between the compressor being before or after the eq. 7) foot switchable boost with boost control for the level of boost required (subtle for playing under a guitar solo, or max out for your bass solo). 8} foot switchable ‘bass intensifier’ circuit with level and cut-off controls 9) Back panel features a pre-amp out to power amp with ground lift, a DI out to the PA including a level control, ground lift, phase inversion switch and a switch to select the DI source (pre eq, post compressor, or line with everything), effects loop send and return jacks, tuner out, foot switch jack, and that parallel input jack for the full rack mount setup with your favourite wireless etc. The preamp comes with the original four button foot switch that connects with a standard jack-to-jack instrument lead. I’ve owned this preamp twice in its life time, but as its not getting the use it deserves, and as I am drowning in too much gear and not enough space, it’s got to go. Note: this sale is for the SWR Marcus Miller Preamp and foot switch only and does not include the SWR Grand Prix preamp, the SWR Amplite power amp, or the rack case, but if you fancy a deal on more than one item - drop me a pm. Price is based on collection from Killingworth (just north east of Newcastle upon Tyne) but I have sufficient packing materials so the preamp can be posted at the buyers risk and expense. Any questions, drop me a pm.

As I’m feeling festive, how about a whopping £50 price reduction, so this great acoustic/electric bass plus the case for just £550
