I'm listing these here on behalf of a friend who is currently in Italy (but also over here in the UK quite regularly). He bought this rig in June of 2011 and they've barely been used at all. Originally intended to demo various basses so even the little use they've had has been at 'home' volume levels. He estimates they've been used for just a few hours. As you can see from the pics below each item really is immaculate. Very rare over here in the UK. Here's some info on the Soul II head: [url="http://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/products_bass.htm"]http://www.glockenkl...oducts_bass.htm[/url] It's essentially a crystal clear 440W (into 4 ohms - which works well with this 4ohm cab) head with "articulate & powerful sound reproduction" - gets great reviews, real pro-quality piece of kit There's less information about the Double on their web site: [url="http://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/products_bass.htm"]http://www.glockenkl...oducts_bass.htm[/url] But there is a small review from Bass Player on a rig exactly like this with more details here: [url="http://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/products_bass.htm"]http://www.glockenkl...oducts_bass.htm[/url] Quite a few luthiers use Glock as their reference systems, Sandberg, Marleaux, Ritter, Clover, Human Base, MTD etc. etc. I think that if such A grade builders see fit to use Glocks to test their basses it kinda gives you an idea of not only how good they are but also how clean & clear they must be - designed to let the bass' natural characteristics shine though without loads of colouration Here's what Bass Player mag said about Glock gear in a review: [size=4][color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"[b]Even with the EQ set flat, it's hard to imagine a more detailed, hi-fi, deep, and overall pleasing bass tone.[/b]"[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"[b]if only the very best will satisfy your gear tones, check out a Glock—if for no other reason than to hear what near-perfect tone sounds like.[/b]"[/font][/color][/size] [b][size=4][color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"The Soul head and Double cab are an excellent match. With the EQ bypassed the Glock rig sounds smooth, effortless, and relaxed, with exceptionally refined detail and a clear focus. Transient response is quick and well controlled without sounding clinical or dry. It really brought out the low-string growl of our Lakland 5-string, and it's one of the few amps we've tried with our Underwood-equipped German upright that didn't require an external preamp to sound really good. "The upright sound is very natural, open, and musical—the Glock reveals the true character of every bass you play through it.[/font][/color][/size][/b] [color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3][b][size=4]If you have an expensive high-end bass or a fine vintage axe and you're looking for an amp that enhances its subtleties, the Glockenklang Soul and Double should be on your must-audition list—if you have four grand to spend."[/size][/b][/size][/font][/color] Priced at €1,900 (about £1,520 at current Euro exchange rates) - these literally are 'as new' items. Shipping will be on top of this and will depend on location. Not looking to split these at the moment as they just work so well together i

Actually this is a better pic of the body :

[b]NOW SOLD[/b] So here's another not particularly awesome bass - a simple classic US Fender P bass in good old black 'n' maple finish with two different pickguards, tort & plain black. It's all original as far as I know apart from the professionally routed J pickup at the bridge. The pickups are a matched pair and work really well together. Each pickup has a master volume control so you can balance across the pair and switch between classic P only sounds or the added bite that a J at the bridge can bring. My personal favourite setting is to bias to wards the P by having it full on & then to wind the J back about a quarter turn & a little bit of treble cut from the global tone control With the P only it has that big beefy P sounds that you only seem to get from the heavier late 70's P basses Speaking of which - It is a bit of a weighty beast but balance is really good & the previous owner used it for regular long gigs. Overall condition is great, there are some wear marks but nothing really untoward. I genuinely can't remember which of the two pickguards is the original, I think it's the tort one but the all black looks pretty cool as well. Comes with a well used Fender ABS hard case, not original but pretty hard wearing & covered with cool stickers It's difficult to put into words but there really is something quite 'special' about this one - I'm just not really a P player & am trying to thin out my herd of old Fender P basses I'm asking £1,500 for this given condition, sound & sheer playability of this bass. Happy to consider trades for basses or amps/cabs so long as they are relatively easy to sell & there's a cash balance in my favour. Here's a sample pic - I have lots more :

Got this out for a quick blast at the weekend, still not awesome but definitely quite nice Here's a big bright picture of the body - lots of flash making it look shinier than it really is & highlighting the wear & sticker marks (which I kinda like really!)
