[center]400 Watt Markbass 2 x 10” HF cab.[/center] [center]8 ohm.[/center] [center]One of the excellent, lightweight, Italian built, front ported cabs.[/center] [center]2x10” plus tweeter.[/center] [center]I‘ve owned the cab from new and it’s still in exceptionally good condition, thanks to the tough carpet covering, the metal grill and the fact that I look after my kit.[/center] [center]A loud, punchy and articulate sounding cab.[/center] [center]Only selling as due to my increasing decrepitness, I’ve had to go for an even lighter set up.[/center] [center]400 watts RMS[/center] [center]Frequency response 40 Hz – 20kHz[/center] [center]Sensitivity 101 db spl[/center] [center]Weight approx: 17.5 K (38.5 lb)[/center] [center]Dimensions approx:[/center] [center]59 cm (23”) wide x 48 cm (19”) deep x 47 cm (18.5”) height.[/center] [center]£365.00[/center] [center]Bank Transfer or cash on collection from my place in Hertfordshire, where you can of course, try it out.[/center] [center]Collection much preferred, although if you want it couriered expect to pay around £40. (Mainland only)[/center] [center]Please also note the following: I do always carefully pack items but it’s not really possible to adequately protect speaker cabs from impact drops. I have so far found the courier I use, to be trustworthy and very reliable, having said that, as with most of the couriers, they don’t offer insurance cover for cabs. So, if you want it couriered it will not be insured and is therefore at the buyers risk.[/center] To discuss posting or for any other questions, just message me and I’ll be back to you as soon as poss.

  4. [quote name='sunburstjazz1967' timestamp='1464342828' post='3058580'] So we need different basses for different cabs now, no wonder people say going light weight is expensive! [/quote] I nearly responded to this but have decided that I've much better things to do, like well erm, anything really.
  5. [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1464342599' post='3058577'] Thanks Rob - must visit one of these days. I see that no matter how big the new room, it's already filled to capacity with basses! [/quote] and what a pleasing sight that is
  6. Very kind of you to state us as a good example Fran. Now then, do I risk pointing my band mates at this thread?
  7. [quote name='grahamd' timestamp='1463947630' post='3055272'] Brilliant read, more complete telling of the story than the film too [/quote] I thought this would be snapped up, what with all the Jaco fans on here. Anyway, another bump and then if it doesn't sell, off to Ebay
  8. [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1464169792' post='3057070'] Sounds like you're grounding some of the wiring - can you pop a strip of paper or card between the pots and the bottom of the control cavity, see if that stops any odd contacts ? I'd check to see that nothing touches the sides of the cavity as well. HtH [/quote] Had the same problem a while back after shielding one of mine. A slight tweak of the output socket, so that it wasn't touching the foil tape, sorted it.
  9. A strange gig for us on Saturday night at the lovely little rural market town of Old Hemel in Herts. Arrived at the allotted time, to be told we would have to start late as the F.A. Cup was on I was a bit hacked off really, it's not as though the football was sprung on them last minute. Not the easiest of load ins at the best of times but a mob of drunken, chanting football fans didn't make it any more of a pleasure. Anyway we finally started and against all expectations it was shaping up great, a full dance floor and an enthusiastic crowd. Then a drunken twat started dancing around with a bar stool, swinging it in all directions. A slightly less drunken punter, stepped in and made a valiant effort to wrestle the stool away and for his troubles ended up with his leg pointing in the opposite direction to how it should be Ambulance called and the poor chap was finally carted off on a stretcher, amazingly the drunken twat who had caused the mayhem was allowed to stay and was still bragging about flooring the bloke. We got started again following a break of about an hour and three quarters and ended playing to a lively audience who made us very welcome.
  10. Same as Karl, I'm finding myself excited by the chicken heads. I'm new to knob GAS.
  11. [quote name='The-Ox' timestamp='1463682142' post='3053377'] raffle it off at the Herts Bass Bash [/quote] Don't know why that didn't occur to me.
  12. It took the thought of listening to one of your clips, to get me off the settee to search out my headphones. All else had failed so far today The bass sounds great as does the playing, love the little flourish at the end.
  13. [quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1463818663' post='3054238'] Cheers. Shame you never got to play the BB2. [/quote] Fran can always try it, round at my gaff
  14. It does allow more tonal variation of course but personally I wouldn't retro fit one to any of my P basses. Is it a valuable P bass that you are considering doing this to?
  15. I'm officially a wimp and ageing and have just bought a Barefaced. Now I'm one happy, ageing wimp
  16. [quote name='Veils' timestamp='1463487501' post='3051712'] Thanks Mr Gary Mac It shouldn't be a surprise to me really I guess. The reason I got into playing bass was a certain Mr Alex James, who is still to this day my number 1 bass hero. Not just the way he plays, but the sound he gets too (I know he's a Precision man rather than Jazz). Now that I think about it, Precisions are the only bass I am yet to experiment with........hmmmmmmm........... [/quote] It is very pleasing to get a thank you but what am I being thanked for?
