  1. [quote name='scalpy' post='1345122' date='Aug 19 2011, 09:27 AM']Just watched the John East product demo. Really, really not helping with the GAS! That bass must be a complete monster. Can't afford it but have a bump for a delectable instrument.[/quote] The bass sounds great passive, but the East pre puts it into another class. The only reason I'm even considering selling this is I have another one! I know, jammy b*st*rd...
  2. [quote name='cureswhatailsye' post='1344667' date='Aug 18 2011, 05:59 PM']Lust[/quote] Personally, I think you should give into your urges, it's good for the soul! :-)
  3. For sale is a great little (but quite substantial) TE SMX pedal, excellent compressor, or for a boost under your foot for those solos/stand-out licks! Very good condition, save a couple of small chips in the finish, in original box with instructions. Uses 2 x 9V batteries, or external power supply (not included). Was £95 posted within UK, now reduced to £80. NOW SOLD...
  4. [quote name='chrismuzz' post='1344937' date='Aug 18 2011, 10:34 PM']Insanely good cabs, and i've seen the 4x10 versions more expensive than this![/quote] Thanks for the recommendation - you're quite right! :-)
  5. For sale is my Markbass 610, acquired a few months back from a fellow basschatter, but not really getting the use it deserves, and the missus is complaining it's taking up valuable shoe space, hence up for grabs. Really moves air, sweet top end (adjustable horn) and weighs in at a sylph-like 46kg on my bathroom scales - genuinely very light and portable, much more so than many 4x10 cabs! Dimensions 1170mm high x 490mm deep x 580mm wide approx. Good condition - one caster has been replaced with one of a slightly different width, but is perfectly serviceable. Was £500, now reduced to £450, no trades please. Collection only from between Woking and Guildford, just off the A3 less than 10 minutes from Jcn 10 of the M25. Fair warning to any interested parties - due to plenty of interest, but an apparent general lack of cash, the featherweight monster will be heading for eBay tomorrow (Monday 19th September). Grab it now if you want it!! NOW SOLD PENDING THE USUAL...
  6. A lovely thing, "Designed and completed in Chicago USA, crafted in Indonesia" in 2008, great condition, but I have another black DJ5, and I must 'rationalise' my little collection... Fender gigbag shown included. £950, no trades please, except if you happen to be the basschatter who was looking to trade a cherryburst 55-02 for one of these a little while back and hasn't replied to my PM... you'd better be quick! :-) NOW SOLD.
  7. [quote name='martthebass' post='1331466' date='Aug 7 2011, 10:22 PM']After a period of let downs and depping, would love to put my mediocre talents back into a productive rock/pop covers band to get me out of the doldrums. Own transport plus more gear than sense so come on guys don't let me turn into a bedroom bassist...[/quote] Don't do yourself down, Mart. In my experience, the only people who sometimes view the mature musician with a slightly jaundiced eye are the young, gobby oiks who think they know it all and like to see themselves as god's gift to music. I know, I was one. Occasionally, despite having now moved into my second half-century, I still can be. Your continuing status as a productive musician is a badge of honour, which should be worn proudly. Potential employers will know you have experience and substance by the spadeful, and will be reliable, knowledgeable, and grateful! Some of the biggest and best gigs I have been privileged to do came along well after my 40th birthday... stick with it.

  9. YouTube clip passed 350 views now... plenty of interest, just not much spare cash around I fear...
  10. Thank you for your kind words, gents...

  13. [quote name='Golchen' post='1265886' date='Jun 12 2011, 11:47 AM']Doh, there you go tempting me again! Such a beauty of a bass, and sounds real good on the vid as well. Too bad that you are too far away to check it out - or probably a good thing as I REALLY shouldn't be looking at basses![/quote] Distance is no object, sir... I can send you the bass, and if it's not your cup of tea, just send it back within 7 days - you just have to send me a piffling £1150 first, of course, but that's a mere detail! Go on, you know you want to!

  15. [quote name='Golchen' post='1260444' date='Jun 7 2011, 10:43 PM']Does 5 knobs not seem a bit excessive for a 1 pup bass???? What do they all do? I really shouldn't even be remotely considering this, but out of interest where in Surrey doth it reside?[/quote] It's a bit of an array, I agree, but I promise you they all have a use! The five knobs are: 5-position coil tap selector (have a listen to the sounds on the YouTube link on the initial post) - these are the various permutations of the two? coils individually, together, in series, and parallel - I know that only makes 4, but I'm not sure exactly what the 5th position is, volume with active/passive push/pull, treble cut/boost, mid cut/boost, bass cut/boost. I'm just off the A3 between Woking and Guildford - PM me if you fancy coming over for a looksee.
  16. [quote name='Soliloquy' post='1260098' date='Jun 7 2011, 07:02 PM']I'd be interested, if my Overwater 6 string sells.[/quote] Very nice bass... someone will have it, but not me, unfortunately... I have enough trouble with 5 strings...
  17. Nice! I used to have a Caramel Burst one a few years back - this looks even prettier. A bump for a beaut of a bass...
  18. Still for sale, but seriously considering withdrawing it. I did a little set up and gave it a whirl through my main rig today, and it sounds great and plays so beautifully... be quick if you want it, before I change my mind about selling!
  19. YouTube clip passed 200 views... still for sale...
