    25 Metre 20/4 way multicore snake / stage box for sale. Sorry but not looking for trades. Ideal for moving your mixing desk off the stage. 20 'sends' (stage to mixing desk) with XLR female sockets and 4 'returns' (mixing desk to stage) with XLR male sockets. All the cores have been tested for continuity by me using a line tester and work fine. One of the 'Returns' male sockets is missing a pin on the 'ring' connection. In practice this doesn't give any problems when used for a monitor feed, since these are normally unbalanced. Replacement sockets are only a couple of quid and don't take much effort to fit, but I've never got around to it. £85 Now £60 collected from Ipswich. I may be able to ship this at cost, but it's quite heavy.

    Yamaha MG206C analog mixing desk + Swan flight case. The mixer is in excellent condition, everything working with no dead channels, sticky sliders. The mixer has lived in a Swan flight case for it's entire life and doesn't have a mark on it. The flight case has one or two scratches but is otherwise in excellent condition. Also includes clip-on LED spotlight for those dark pub stages. Specifications: 20channels 16 mic inputs 12 mono line inputs + and 4 stereo line inputs Phantom power switch (+48V) 3-band mid sweep EQ (Ch. 1-8) 3-band EQ (Ch. 9/10-15/16) 6 buses (Stereo and 4 groups) 4 Aux sends (up to 3 can be configured as pre-fade for monitor outputs) 2 stereo Aux return Neutrik XLR Connectors Input trim gain High quality mic preamps HPF 8 compressors Illuminated CH ON switches 60mm Super smooth fader Monitor mix Lightweight (6kg) 12-segment LED level meter Rackmountable Price £300. Sorry but not looking for any trades. I can also ship this in the flight case at cost. Collection from Ipswich is preferred. I also have the manual and the original shipping box. If you don't want the flight case you can take just the mixer for £250 and I can still ship, again at cost. I can take it to the South East Bass Bash if anyone would like to see it, and I'll be visiting Birmingham a couple of times over the next few weeks so can arrange a meeting. Pictures (happy to take some more on request):

    For sale, no trades please: HH Studio 60 Bass Combo Mosfet-powered bass combo from the '80's with 15" speaker. 3-band parametric EQ with bright boost and built-in compressor, headphone socket and speaker extension jack for 4Ohm minimum extension speaker. Headphone socket, line-out, effects loop and a pair of sockets labelled 'Bi-Amp', no idea what they do and I don't have a manual. Although nominally 60W, these appear to be old-school watts. I've used this combo with a trio of loud drummer and Fender-twin powered guitarist, and it quite happily kept up. Only thing against it is the weight - 22 kgs. Happy to ship to the UK at cost but collection is probably the best option. Pictures (happy to take more on request):

    Obbm is looking for something like this in the 'Wanted' section. Year is 2012, according to https://support.fender.com/hc/en-us/articles/214343783-How-can-I-find-out-when-my-Japanese-made-instrument-was-manufactured- "In 2012, Fender has transitioned the numbering scheme again with the new serial number starting with “JD” followed by an eight-digit number with “Made in Japan” decals. If your serial number starts with “JD” followed by an eight-digit number, the first two digits designates the year of manufacture. However, there are some exceptions in this transition period in 2012. “JD + 8 digits” and some of instruments with “U + 6 digits” are also built in 2012. JD + 8 digits 2012 and on going"

    For Fender, I think the best bang/buck ratio is to be found with the not-for-export Made In Japan / Crafted in Japan instruments. They crop up for sale on the forum occasionally - there's a '62 RI CIJ Jazz in the classifieds at the moment. Or maybe a Yamaha - a 734 perhaps. Peach Guitars probably have one of these in stock. I played Loremil's 434 a couple of weeks ago, beautifully finished instrument with a very comfortable neck.

    Fair enough. Thanks for trying, as everyone has said. Maybe we should look at doing something in the Ipswich area - would that work better for people? Kind regards Pete

    Might also be worth a look at JJ Tesla's KT88s. I've not used them, but I've had good results with their KT77s.

    Plus one to that, I'd suggest you have a chat with Andyjr1515 . If the bridge can't be raised it might be possible to plane off 2mm of the existing fingerboard. Perhaps the way that Overwater make fingerboards isn't compatible with something that's already fixed to an instrument?

    Maybe the band had nothing whatsoever to do with placing the ad? It looks to me like something that an acquaintance who thought they were helping out would do.
  11. pete.young
    Think this would be a great choice for a B-E-A-D bass, with the extra scale length.
  12. pete.young
    Have had some success with rubber door stops.

    A 1960 Strat in Fiesta Red, c.1978 in A1 Music, Oxford Rd, Manchester. Would be worth about 25 grand today. A couple of Fylde acoustics which made an appearance in Sounds Acoustic around the same time, notably a Prospero 12-string. There is a happy ending though - in 1977 I went down to Sounds Acoustic with about £25 quid in my sweaty mitt to buy a cheap Martin copy. Arrived at the shop to see some dude leaving with my guitar, the last one in stock. I consoled myself by playing a second-hand Fylde Orsino, and bought it on finance. It took me 2 years to pay it off, but I still have that guitar today and it's one of my most prized posessions.

    On-board or external?

    Many 2x12 cabs are 4 Ohm. I guess this is a consequence of individual drivers all being 8Ohm. I have an EBS Neo 2x12 which is 4 Ohm. Slight mid scoop but otherwise you get out what you put in. The mighty Tech Soundsystems NDS 412 I had for a while was also 4 Ohms.

    Or, go to google and type in "site:basschat.co.uk/topic/<whatever the misc forum is called> East Retro"

    Modern? The clip is nearly 10 years old! Paul is on tour early next year, I'm going to see him in Ipswich. Tour dates: https://paulcarrack.net/live
  18. pete.young
    Indeed. Perhaps someone local could check out the nearest cash converters, if you're not able to do so yourself?
  19. pete.young
    Excellent, congratulations and well done!

    SM57 and a sponge to wedge it inbetween the bridge feet.

    Penn Elcom removeable bass cab trolley? https://www.pennelcomonline.com/en/gb/Penn-Elcom-3-Stage-Removable-Case-Trolley-H4515/m-8943.aspx

    Never had this with band members, but we did one gig at a Hockey club where someone in the audience got naked. We were half way through a song when I became aware of this dude walking straight down the middle of the hall, wearing nothing but a gold posing pouch. He got to the stage, took it off and threw it at the band, where it wrapped itself round one of the cymbals. Lady vocalist suitably scandalised. Oddly enough, the song we were playing was "What's that coming over the hill, it's a monster!". Although sadly, it turned out not to be.

    Yes, the double Hercules is ideal for odd-shaped basses because there are no arms underneath the body, it's supported from the headstock and a strut that goes up against the guitar back. I use mine with a BBNE2 which is a similar body shape to Spector, and various Bass Collections.Not great for headless though.

    I just bought a PJB amp from Lorenzo, and collected it yesterday. Great communication throughout, and very friendly when I arrived to collect. Amp in as-new condition, I'd definitely deal with Lorenzo again. Especially if he puts the BB434 up for sale 🙂
  25. pete.young
    Stu, is this still for sale?
