  1. Hi all

    Reluctant sale, but a couple of my basses have to go...

    This is a Marleaux Consat special edition made for Spanish dealer Doctorbass. It is essentially a bolt-on Consat Custom, but without top wood, and with a rosewood fretboard instead of ebony, all of which helps make it more affordable, but with the same quality, tone and finesse of a Custom: pickups, electronics, hardware, neck...

    This is the lightest bass I've ever owned, weighs next to nothing. Punchy, articulate and modern tone with *absolutely* silent 3-band preamp, active/passive switch. No difference in volume between passive and active modes, unless you really crank the active eq up. The bass is finished in 'antique brown' which I personally find beautiful. It feels very compact, with a slim body and fast neck - top notch build quality. It is in MINT condition - no dings, scratches, nothing. Exactly as new.

    Shipping with UPS included in the price, will also include the excellent, original Marleaux 'soft rigid' case.

    I really loved the concept of this bass - a Consat Custom that you are not afraid to take out of the house!

    I'm after an(other) ACG so trade possibilities are very limited, but asking does no harm.

    Thanks!

  2. Hi all

    For sale my Burns Marquee - essentially an excellent strat type with a lovely fretboard and a more substantial feel than your average Fender. The PUs are very quiet and fatter than vintage strat types. The second tone pot is push pull to activate the neck pickup in any position of the 5-pos blade switch.

    Excellent condition, just one small ding on the headstock and one even smaller near the rear strap pin (both pictured), gold hardware slightly tarnished. Will take paypal. Shipping included. Will include a standard gig bag, but will pack safely.

    Thanks!

    Maybe his hearing is going, but I haven't seen a recent video clip where his Kingbass sounds good, the audio always makes it sound really thin. I do prefer his 80's sound, but I also love the sound of the Alembic on the Guaranteed Live video. :)

    Yes, the Guaranteed video was the pinnacle of his bass tone imo. A Kingbass badly (or un-)amplified can sound really bad, very plasticky. I don't like TC Electronic (sterile) amps either, in general. The Live at Reading tone was pretty good, though.

  4. Col just bought my Diago pedalboard unseen - swift payment, absolutely no hassle, great communication. Feels great to be able to deal so easily on the sole basis of mutual trust. A BC legend. Thanks Col!
