Just bought a lovely Jazz bass from Mick - second attempt at a try-out after I suffered a serious attack of the Running Snots. Mick is a proper gent, and we could easily have whiled away the entire afternoon chatting!

You can download the app for free. Then you need the extension (or whatever it's called) for the mixer you're using. If it's the Behringer XR18 you'll need the one called 'X/M Air' - it's free on Android and just a few quid on iPhone. This video may help:

Do you have full control over your own monitor mix, eg via a phone app? My IEM experience was initially poor and hugely variable until I did.

** NOT A COMPLETE AMP - JUST AN EMPTY HEAD SHELL AND CHASSIS ** ** SPARES/DIY ONLY ** This is what remains of the amp that I gutted for my 100W bass amp build. It has one non-matching 30mm M4 bolt and the Bugera logo is missing, otherwise all good. Too big and heavy to make postage worthwhile so £25 collected or meet-up. I live in Swindon but do travel round for gigs and so on. -
Only £1,150 for this stellar Tele!

Boss AC-3 withdrawn as I suddenly find I have a new use for it! -
I bought this bass on here a couple of years ago - NBD thread is here and my initial comments still hold true. I have ended up playing it less than I thought because (1) 3 months later I bought an NG2, and (2) I have ended up on lead guitar in my glam rock project! For anyone unaware, the D-Roc is Dingwall's take on the Gibson Thunderbird bass, but with more flexible pickup options and no neck dive. The scale length ranges from 34in (G) to 37in (E). If you haven't tried a fan-fret before, be prepared to spend at least 15 seconds getting used to it! The electronics are passive and comprise of volume, pickup selector, and tone. This bass has a huge tonal range from the FD3-N Neodymium-magnet pickups but I feel like I want something a bit more conventional-looking for my non-Precision moments. This is a bass that wants to be hit by stage lighting! Modifications The 'scratch plate' sticker has been removed. I have changed the tone cap from 47nF to 100nF for more range on the tone pot. I had a chicken-head knob on the pickup selector switch as it is easier to see/feel where it is (see last photo). I have returned it to stock but I am including the other knob - it is an easy swap, just pull it off (oh please!), no tools required. The bass comes with the originall Dingwall gig bag as pictured, and the Dunlop strap lock attachments to go on your strap - they plug into 2 metal sockets, one by the neck heel, the other in the middle of the back (hence it balances perfectly on a strap). It is currently strung with Elixir Nano Web Nickel Plated 045-105 Extra Long (set E14087) and there is a worn set of black Paysons in the gig bag for emergencies. Condition is as per the photos. There is a small unfilled hole on the back of the headstock where a D-tuner has been fitted by a previous owner. Weight 3.8kg (8lb 6oz). Neck width 43mm at the nut, 56mm at the 12th fret (both measured straight across the neck from the treble side). I'm looking for £1,150 on collection or meet-up. I can travel a reasonable distance from Swindon if it helps, just PM me to discuss. If you prefer to buy new, go to Bass Direct and hand over another £600 in their sale... Trades Fender (or possibly Squier) Jazz. I do have very specific requirements and unreasonable dislikes, but by all means hit me up!
