Custom jazz bass hand made by the late Paul McNab (Paulman - Huddersfield) .. only contemplating selling as I now only want to play 5 string anyway, here's the spec ........ 1 piece Amazaque (ovangkol) body .. very heavy (+/- 6kg) 1 piece Wenge neck (absolutely gorgeous, best neck I've played .. pity its not 5 string) .. nice ebony fretboard too Gotoh reverse tuners (black) [url="http://www.allparts.uk.com/online-shop/guitar-bass-parts/tuning-keys/bass/bass-tuning-keys/gotoh-tuning-keys-for-p-j-bass-vintage-style-reverse-wind-3-p-2030.html#"]http://www.allparts....-3-p-2030.html#[/url] Nordstrand Big Singles [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Nordstrand_Pickups_Signature.html"]http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_sp..._Signature.html[/url] Hipshot A style brass bridge (black) [url="http://store.hipshotproducts.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=114"]http://store.hipshot...ct_detail&p=114[/url] Schaller strap locks 5-way rotary selector switch ... by Stan Hinesley (bridge / br+n series / br+n parallel / br+n series out-of-phase / neck) [url="http://stanhinesleypickups.com/passive_controls.htm"]http://www.facebook.com/Stan.Hinesley.Pickups[/url] No volume or tone controls but the cavity is large enough to add more. Switch shaft was slightly loose so have put two screws in to secure it but over did it slightly & went right thru but only the point of the screw & hardly noticable, switch works fine tho now lol. Maybe you'd want to put typical jazz controls in or perhaps a preamp but this bass sounds just fab as it is imho. Very full sounding 'aggressive' jazz bass maybe due to +/- 13lbs of mass .. so certainly no light weight but the amazaque/wenge/ebony combined with Nordstrand BS's might also account for that ! Made my other jazz basses feel like toys .. I used to call this my 'jazz bass on steroids' lol .. such a great tone / sustain .. I even put the same pups in my Dingwall but just doesn't sound quite as good. Such a pity it's not a 5 string but I don't play 4 anymore & don't see myself going back (not even in a band anymore & need to sell off all my surplus gear) No trades please... unless 27" iMac (2011 type older model fine) Any questions/more pics or trial just contact me (07508211932) .. I would prefer collection in person so you can try out before you buy .. could possibly deliver for petrol money ... cheers Simon

[b]TRADED[/b] Simon I've recorded some sound samples showing different pickup positions ie 1=br / 2=br+n series out of phase / 3=br+n parallel / 4=br+n series / 5=n Recorded on line6 backtrack through Markbass Classic 300 valve amp (all knobs (cept master vol) set at 12 o'clock & Barefaced Super 12 (tweeter off), I am a heavy handed player but this is just to give you an idea etc, also there is plenty of cavity space to add extra controls/preamp etc .. hope this helps.

[quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' post='1174591' date='Mar 24 2011, 01:34 PM']I've been thinking of getting a GK head for some time now, and what with the imminent end of the Take It Away scheme I need to get my arse in gear! I originally intended to go for the 700 RB - classic amp, great tone. But I find myself increasingly drawn to the lightweight MB 200, which recently got a stunning review in BGM. Are there any GK users out there who can offer a comparison of the two? I am not really in a position to try either out but I have had experience with the 700 in the past - do the two amps make a markedly different noise? The boost facility is important I play a Spector bass, and make very loud, heavy rock/metal.[/quote]I'm sort of after both however the MB200 though a great little amp started to distort too much for my liking above 75% (gain) so I'll just go for the 700RB-II & not bother with a back up as that was the purpose of the MB200. I recently sold an older late 80's 400RB & that sounded great but again felt the 200w not quite enough & started to distort once you got to near full volume. I also play in a loud rock band so I don't recommend the MB200 as main amp but I cannot comment on the 500w models.
