  1. Ashdown 210 cab modified with two faital 10FH500 1000w 16ohms speaker. Wiring in cab for a tweeter although there isnt one atm. feet on bottom and side. Good alround condition, belter of a cab that can handle pretty much anything you throw at it. Pickup from Rochester, or meet halfway with some renumeration for coffe and petrol for yours truly. NOW SOLD
  2. thanks wiill correct
  3. I don't know what it is they do at Sandberg to 'age' their rather nice guitars but this is a corker. I am generally not a fan of the road worn look but this is just lovely. Looks and feels genuine.The dinks and rash etc are tasteful without utterly trashing the bass. Cool as a four letter word. feel, not so 'aged' as to look like its been attacked by a rather dirty handed nutter with a belt sander. A fantastic brute of a bass. Great tonal range from the single coil and MMan style Delano pickups and pre amp. Bass can be run passive or active (pull/push on the volume) the bridge humbucker can be run full on or single coil, giving you a single coils jazz pickup option. Sandberg don't do this pickup configuration anymore or use Delano so if this is your thing then here she is..... Turns out they do ..d'oh Anyway, Tonally just great. My first ever Sandberg and impressive isn't an adequate description, these are great. Sporting a relatively recent set of round wounds, fretboard and fret polish. I have baulked once.. but many bills to pay so downsizing is a must..so here we are again. Comes with ABS flightcase. Will ship anywhere in the UK, will consider other locations, all at buyers expense. Might PX (with cash adjustment as necessary )against Warwick Corvette, bongo or nice stingray PRICE drop £1050
  4. Three TSB with black back. Active/passive switching, coil selection pickup seletion back/both/front. G & L MFD pickups, rosewood fretboard, frets in excellent shape, no buzzes. A couple of very fine dints nothing major , in very good condition. Has been my standby but dont seem to be playing any 5 string right now and just isn't getting the love, so new owner needed. If you have a warwick corvette to trade lets chat.
  5. One the disadvantages of trawling around the web and such is seeing something useful before you actually need it. So in the hope that someone on here has such information I have a Jeff berlin combo with the 250 black line head in it. The first head has a problem with the digital switching power supply issue which was pant wettingly expensive to replace /repair, so I bought a second hand 'hardly used' one to swap it out . All seemed well when i started getting a distortion in the signal and output. I seemed to vaguely remember a fix that re-routes a cable away from the power or something which solves it.....anyone??
  6. Dimarzio DP123 or DP148,149's depending one how hot you like your curry. I have these and Lindy fralins and the LF's are great but the Dimarzio's edge them on presence and power.
  7. I can vouch for these, great little basses and good platform for upgrades
  8. Been a fabulous year for me: Muse (twice), frank Turner (including to my utter amazement Jimmy eat world who were on my unlikely to ever see bucket list) and a bunch of others. Latest two have Periphery/plini last night of the European tour and they looked like they were having a good time. Buck and Evans at the 100 club a couple of weeks ago, great up and coming blues guitarist, bass too low in the mix tho (isn't it always eh?)
  9. @TheGreek Top transaction, good communication, fast payment. Many thanks
  10. I take it back TNT: failed to turn up on the scheduled time (last monday in the PM), rang interparcel to do a WTF status check. Apparently TNT had a 'system issue' and would i please re-schedule a pickup...I politely suggested that TNT/Interparcel should have contacted me to inform me rather than i have to chase it. That said they picked up within a couple of hors and it arrvive the following afternoon. Much to the @TheGreekrelief..
  11. The Kiloton differs from the passive stingray in that you coil select on the pickup to change the tone (single/series/parallel) and have a bass boost/cut. But agree, it barks due to the positioning of the pickups. Love mine, close to p bass on the single coil setting and powerful humbucker goodness in the other two modes. Love G and L's simple approaches making them gig monsters.
  12. I have a Kiloton..its awesome, very punchy, light and powerful. Great price..glwts
  13. Funny I started this thread as the proud owner for a 1*8 cab, two 2*10's and 2*12.....and yesterday swapped a guitar for a....4*10. Did a gig on Friday with a 250w 15" combo and it couldn't hack it. Played with the same band tonight, using a darkglass head and the 'new' 4*10...world of difference..lovely. Whilst my back is still good it gets the gig..
  14. oh yeah just noticing the trend, not commenting on its validity and whether light weight is the best or whatever. I actually have a shed have a shed full of usable but probably unsellable cabs
  15. Hmm, just bought a 4 * 8 ashdown on a whim. small but bloody hell its a heavy li'l dude.
  16. Looking around the for sale items it appears that cheapest vfm deals for cabs are 4*10's just dont expect to sell it easily after you have bought it. . They just don't seem to sell. Is it everyone can't be doing with lugging Gear..old age, smaller and more volume sensitive venues, digital rigs/through the PA setups ..maybe all of the above.
  17. Trade against a Sandberg VM5 road worn?
  18. go through the Interparcel quote page, ask for a quote, get the price you should have paid, on the size of the parcel actually delivered and offer the difference..might work.
  19. Kind of surprised how little discussion there is out there for G & L basses. so here is a little recent story... I have owned a couple of SB-2 in the past and have to say they are excellent gigging tools of trade, fast necks, light, punchy. Recently i was reflecting on how good they were and decided to pull the trigger of a preloved L2500 and an excellent thing it is to. Now this bit is where I just got the g.a.s. Watched the video for 'riot' by Ritchie kotzen, the bass player absolutely nails it playing a G & L JB 4 string. So off I go to Anderton's and order a tribute version. Taking its time to get here (getting even more irrational..) I decided to cancel the order and flip to a Kiloton. Never played one before but knew it would be structurally close to the SB-2...and what a bass it is, one of, if not the best decision I have ever made on a purchase. Think passive stingray, almost the same level of output, single/series and parallel switching, Jazz neck but with more character than a single MFD humbucker bass should legally have. Brilliant. Instant #1 bass.
  20. Nothing Gibson-easque. G & L Sb-2 tribute would be excellent, mid range Musician (Subs or ray24). Ibanez perhaps..
  21. Just shy of 4 kgs, pretty average for a 5 string. Nowhere near as heavy as the Ash bodied version
  22. Have owned a couple of J & D 's over years. Excellent value for money, have a GLWTS bump
  23. high end of 8lb or just under 9lb ..compares favourably to the fender bodied jazz I have . So not a beast
