True and I agree that the true beauty of a 5 string is playing across the neck and making life easier for yourself. I've started to move back towards 4 strings recently but if I need a 5, I use a 5.

Whatever works for you but I'm slightly confused as to why you would need to use a capo with a 5 string bass for songs in Eb or D unless I've read the post incorrectly. Also can you get capos wide enough for a 5 string neck? Not sure if it would have sufficient pressure for the low B.

EBS Neo 2x12 Bass Cab £350 final price reduction
attackbass replied to attackbass's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
No cover, though there was a cover that it lived in but I've taken that now for my hartke. I can't remember exactly but it came direct from EBS in Sweden in 2019 I think about autumn time. So coming up to 6 years, been well looked after. -
Clearing out a lot of stuff that is just sitting in boxes under my desk. For sale is my EBS Microbass in Bass preamp and DI. Bought it on here a few years ago and used it for a number of tours for FOH and practice at home until it started to momentarily cut out on channel A intermittently but never for long, but long enough to not want to use it for live. Amazing sounding preamp and speaker sim and incredibly versatile. Probably could be used as a practice solution for somebody or perhaps somebody with tech knowledge or an interest in repairing things could fix it. £75 delivered.-

For sale is a set of EMG J Jazz Bass pickups for 4 string bass. Comes with the solderless controls and wiring kit. Doesn't include the Jazz control plate sorry, using this just to keep it all together safely for the moment. I think I threw the box away but can package them securely and all instructions are available from the EMG website. Had these in my Jazz Bass for a year and saw very little use as I tend to gig mainly 5 string and precision basses. Decided I wanted to change back to passive pickups, so these are up for sale. Great sounding pickups and completely noiseless!-

For sale is my Truetone 1Spot CS7 Great power supply in very good condition (just a slight scratch on the yellow paint) complete with box, mounting kit and all the various cables. Reason for sale is that I bought a CIOKS SOL for my Quad Cortex which I then obviously I sold but it still fits my needs better than the CS7 so needs to go! £110 ono delivered-

For sale is my Rockboard Quad 4.1 pedlaboard fitted with the Rockboard Mod 1 patchy bay. Used this as my pedalboard for the last 5 years and it has been great, very light but sturdy and very easy to build a good pedalboard with. It's covered in velcro that can of course be removed. Also included is a Pedaltrain gig bag that came with the Pedaltrain that I recently bought. There is a small hole in the case which I've pictured and doesn't include the shoulder strap but other than that it's never been used. This could probably be stitched or glued back together... not that I'm an arts and crafts expert though! It just happens to fit the rockboard Quad 1 perfectly so thought I would list it as one whole thing. -
Decided to put up my awesome (and unfortunately no longer made) Spector LT5 in Violet Fade for sale. This has been my main touring bass for the last two years and has seen some action at Glastonbury, Green Man and many more festivals that I can't even remember! Despite being my main bass I have really looked after the bass and it's in excellent condition. No dings or dents just light surface scratches that every guitar gets from being played! The bass has a 3 piece maple neck with alder body wings and a very nice flamed maple top, which is almost holographic and almost impossible to photo! 😂 The bass has a very nice ebony fingerboard, MOP Spector crown inlays, Gotoh lightweight tuners, brass nut, Dunlop straplocks, Custom wound to Spector spec Bartolini pickups and Darkglass preamp, and thr finish is so good it's ridiculously reflective and shiny.. again making it difficult to take good photos! The bass plays very nicely and sounds phenomenal. The bass is 35" scale and the low B is the best I've experienced on a high end bass. Currently strung with Dunlop Super Bright Steels. Sale includes the Spector gig bag. Looking for £1800 due to excellent condition and I think collection is needed. I have the boxes it came in but I don't feel comfortable shipping it without a hardcase.-

Accidentally listed this in the Accessories for sale thread but probably better to have it in the effects for sale section. Apologies if its not ok to share the original post in here!

I've done it. I've listed my LT5 in the for sale section. I picked it up and played it for a bit before I took the photos and thought this is a great bass I should keep bit common sense had prevailed and it's gone up
-
These are great amps. EBS sent me one a few years ago which I gave back once I left to use Hartke. Very loud and portable for what they are, used it on a number of occasions where I didn't want to take my big amp. -
I agree! I don't see the point of owning an instrument that is pristine and with all original parts. If the instrument has had parts replaced, refretted etc then that is because its a brilliant instrument that has been enjoyed and used and in some cases have really interesting stories and history linked to them. My p bass has one pre CBS and one post CBS pickup. Obviously, one had died and back then, pickups rewinds weren't a thing so whoever owned it at the time went to a music store and ordered in a replacement fender pickup for it! I think it's easy to lose sight with these vintage instruments that back then they were just merely tools! 😂

And here it is!

I bought my 64 p bass last year for a significant birthday present to myself and it's by far the most incredible instrument I've ever owned. It's player grade and was played to death by a famous UK session player from 1969 if I remember correctly, ans I can see why! Every note across the entire fretboard is clear as a bell and completely in tune. Definitely completely bonded with it more than any bass I've ever owned!
