  1. I would have walked over broken glass for one of these back in the day. I bet it sounds immense, GLWTS bud!
  2. Roadie,....did you pack my crane...... Seriously, what a setup!!
  3. Absolute steal...I've played through a similar setup and it rocks the boat. GLWTS bud!
  4. Lovely, lovely bass..played one years ago in the 70's, borrowed from a friend for a gig at Dial House WMC in South Yorkshire while my Jazz as being repaired. Fantastic tone through an old Orange amp and a Hiwatt cab...but seemed to remember it was a bit neck heavy.. Did I dream that??
  5. Just bought a lovely Mesa Subway D-800 head in absolutely perfect condition from Sam. He described it perfectly...like new! Thank you Sam for a great amp and a brilliant deal.. C'mon you female bass chatters....he's the type of guy you need to marry... Top man, cheers mate!
  6. Nice cab and a good price.....where did you get your lamps from? My missus caught me looking at your cab and noticed them lol.
  7. Would have killed for one of these back in the day. GLWTS bud..
  8. PM sent Lee. Cheers, Steve
  9. Oh man,..........I've had two barefaced 1x12 cabs for a couple of years now and they are a revelation...lighter than a tray of coffee cups and sound great....try em..you'll never go back to having a couple of lumps in your throat that aren't your tonsils.......PS, you're a brave man admitting to the stingray thing lol
  10. The one thing I remember back in the 70's when I started playing was everything was heavy and never really sounded clear or loud enough unless you were lucky enough to own Ampeg or Acoustic stuff. I played through various amps of the day including Selmer Treble/bass, Elgen (caught fire on stage lol) and Orange but bar far the worse by a country mile was the Carlsbro Stingray..anyone have experience of this one? These days we are absolutely spoilt for choice with all kinds of really top line amps and cabs that sound great and weigh nothing. Mind you for anyone who started playing in the 70's its a godsend having this type of equipment.
  11. My cream one cost a bit more brand new in 1973...my Mum bought it for me on HP at 75p per week from a store in Doncaster. Around the same time she also bought me a Dallas Arbiter Slider amp with little slider controls on top....not very loud and certainly not loud enough to hear above a drummer. I totally blame my dear late Ma for all the the thousands of pounds I've spent on the bass gear in the following 45 years. GLWTS mate, you've brought back some happy memories.
  12. I think there was another manufacturer called Zenta with a bass that looked exactly the same...anyone remember them?
  13. My first bass...mine was a blonde one though. GLWTS
  14. I am now the proud owner of an absolutely stunningly gorgeous and fantastically sounding 1971 Jazz bass that Si had for sale recently. May I say Si that you are a really great guy to deal with, honest, genuine and a pleasure to do business with. Can't thank you enough. Steve
  15. Thanks Spyder...they are excellent sounding and very portable. Totally surprised they haven't been snapped up by some savvy bassist
  16. So do I....got the same on my Stringray....looks great
  17. Sorry Cuggmiester I really don't want to split them......why don't you buy both of them and sell the 15" cab
  18. Nice, but not as nice as yours mate
  19. I think the models are 115 XT and 208 XTT.....the plate on the back of each cab isn't very clear...I'm sorry that's all I can tell you
  20. This is the Warwick catalogue I found on-line which feature my cabs. The first 2 are the ones I'm selling. Hope this helps. Cheers.
