  1. Bump - looks like this will go on eBay soon so I'm going to say this is also for sale now for £850
  2. I just played on one in Chicago Music Exchange, Absolutely beautiful! Really big sound and so lively as well, at first I thought it must of been active but it was definatly passive. The neck: The neck was really really nice to play on I would say similar to a precision but a bit quicker, one thing I did notice was there is like a heel at the back of the headstock which was a bit weird but didn't get in the way. The neck also appears to be a glue on neck as there wasn't any bolts. Body: Nitro finish and seemed well built, there was both the black and the orangy burst basses there both looked cool but I played with the black one Pickups: As I said really loud! Has a 3 way toggle switch which I assume is, neck and mid, all 3 and mid and bridge. The only thing I noticed was the pole pieces on the g string weren't centred up with the string but did not seem to have any impact Overall A really nice bass with a distinctive sound, pretty lightweight as well I would say lighter than all my basses. If I had $1000 I would of had it but I didn't. I can't actually find anything about a UK release date or what shops have them, but it would appear they are out in the US!
  3. I've had one for a little while now and it is a really good amp, the valve is really good and you can blend the clean and overdriven tones together. Classic TE pre-shape, the 12 band eq is really cool to have if you're really into finding each frequency, I never really got on much with the compressor in it though! It is pretty damn loud, used it mainly with a Trace 4x10 and 1x15 but used it only at home with my super12 which sounds really good! - without trying to promote my own thread but I have one up for trade.........
  4. Bump - edited the trade list slightly Any questions please ask! Really want an Orange TB1000!
  5. Is it butterscotch blonde?
  6. Mckendrick, the 51 is too good
  7. Looks good! Have you managed to have a proper play now?
  8. Just got a boss odb3 from Sam, no issues what so ever and he was quick to respond to PMs Thanks!
  9. Would a Trace Elliot AH600-12 be any interest?
  10. Here's a response from Trace Elliot about the buzz, Hi Mark, Thanks for the video. I don't think you have anything to worry about here. I have shown it to everyone here and this does seem normal. If there was a shadow of a doubt that this was a fault then we would not hesitate to collect the amp for inspection. Best Regards, So it's all good!
  11. Going away for two weeks so it's available but obviously can't arrange trades until I'm back anyone interested still contact me as I'll still have Internet just not handily on my phone
  12. Just as an update as I forgot to post, the issue swiftly came back soon after thinking it was all ok, then sent it back again and Trace had it for about 3-4 months then they basically changed the amp and worked on changing some values of components in the amp and sent me it back and its all good!
  13. [quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1347898394' post='1806352'] I just got back from a stag do in Edinburgh, smashing place. My accent was much in demand! Glad to hear the pickguard is on it's way, looking forward to seeing this one [/quote] What he said - minus the stag do
  14. Still available bump - with the previous potential trade there was a small buzz that came through the tweeter which went when the tweeter was turned off-low, my cab doesn't have a tweeter so any buzz was barely noticeable when I got it home. I've contacted Trace Elliot today and they have confirmed that a tweeter would highlight any hiss or buzzing and said its not the issue that the previous model had (sounding like a ripped speaker) So it's still here!
  15. I was only thinking this the other day, I know talkbass have a bassists section and if it's possible would be good to see on here!
  16. GONE!!!!! Hi everyone, I have for trade a new Trace Elliot AH600-12. Now some people may remember I had issues with this model distorting at very low volumes, basically it went back and fourth to TE and now they have sent me a brand new model with a few tweaks inside, they changed some of the values of components(that's all I was told) and my old head was replaced with this one. It is in full 100% working order, I have literately just played it for all of a few minutes to check if it works. When tested on a cab with a tweeter on high there was a small amount of buzz which went as the tweeter was turned down. I just find this amp is too heavy and too complicated for what I need now. These retail new at £1,100 roughly, so I would say [s]£900[/s] [s]£850[/s] [s]£800[/s] [s]£700[s\] £550 for sale Here's a link for info, [url="http://www.traceelliot.com/bassamps/?item=116929"]http://www.traceelli...ps/?item=116929[/url] Here's a link for how it sounds [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVyBjX_qkFI&sns=em[/media] UK only and if possible I would like to meet with whoever is interested so we can both make sure we are happy 600 watts of Trace Elliot tone, comes with a 6 button foot switch which has, pre shape, valve, eq, compression,loop and mute Thanks! Any questions please ask!
  17. I'm pretty sure I'm not making this up, but didn't on a number of occasions The Beatles at stadium shows couldn't hear themselves over the screaming so at times they were actually playing different songs? It'll be fine sometimes gigs don't go as well as we would of liked, but just maybe spend some time rehearsing and working through what could be improved and importantly what went well!
