  1. It’s a great cab, the quality is second to none. As for the initial value, I can only go off what I was told when I got it from a long standing BC member. The MK2 112 equivalent to buy now is about €1200 with a cover and so, by the time shipping and import fees were paid, £1400 sounded about right to me.
  2. I still use my Midiverb lll. The best delay I’ve ever heard on a bass!
  3. Virtually every band I’ve seen in a decent sized venue for well over a decade have had a ‘generic’ horrible woolly bass sound. Rigs tend to be sub bass heavy (sub isn’t needed for most genres imho). Engineers seem to think that ‘sub bass’ is what it’s all about now. Totally baffles me. Can’t they tell that the bass is just a blur and it’s not actually enhancing the overall sound at all? Was their tutor off that week? I still like to think that bands of a certain ‘level’ have their own sound engineers but I think I’m kidding myself there. Maybe JJ’s sound is much more authentic onstage? I like JJ so I’m blaming the PA guys 😂
  4. I bought a Squier Sonic as a spare thinking that I’d mod it a bit, pups, bridge etc. Lowered the action. It’s low, real low. No neck adjustment, just the saddles. Rattle canned it Oly white, stuck a cheeky logo on it and it’s replaced my main Precision (which is actually a nice bass). It plays and sounds great. It doesn’t need any mods. The first gig I used it at, I had a number of really good compliments about it. One from a band who’s bassist was using a Shuker P. I didn’t have the heart to tell them…. The Squier Sonics and the Harley Benton’s are great basses for the money. Plus they are new with a warranty. You can always send them back too.
  5. Another classic head that maketh me green with envy! 🤣 It might be better in the amps for sale section though?
  6. Sod’s law! The price drop will more than cover the postage though 😁
  7. And an Eden Metro combo to play it through! Bliss 😁
  8. As above in used condition. Drum frame and TD3 brain/module, PD-105 snare . 2 cymbals, KD-8 bass drum pad and Pearl kick pedal. 4 PD-08 drum pads, 3 toms and 1 for the hat. Will post pics and pad models later. Everything works but I may not have enough leads to connect all the pads to the drum module. These are just ordinary jack to jack though. The hi hat pedal is an Alesis. No stool included. Will be difficult to post but if buyer is willing to arrange their own courier, I’ll do my very best to make sure it’s safe for transit. Collection form BB22SH preferred. Stock photo but actual pics to follow
  9. As above in Pearl. Circa 1984 I believe. Nice and light, probably less than 8.5lb but haven’t actually checked it. Skinny Jazz type neck. Has some chips but in decent nick for a well played bass of 40+ years. Plays ok and sounds great but could do with a better setup. Truss rod works and adjusts both ways. I need a 22/24 fret for tapping and my skills cannot get the action low enough for me to do that, hence the sale. I’ll change the straplocks back to the originals too. Now with hard case. Old style bit fully functional and in good condition for its age. Soft lined. Compartments etc. May trade 22/24 fretter, can add cash. Postage available or collection and trial from Blackburn Lancs.
  10. Bought a lead from Rob. It arrived exactly as described, well packaged and super fast. A great BC’er to deal with. thanks again Rob. Cheers Dunc
  11. For sale or trade trade, my short scale 1972 Antoria EB3. It’s had lots of mods but all are reversible and I believe I have all the original parts. There’s a thread on here about it. I got it from Paul S of this very parish a number of years back when I was switching to short scale but all my work seems to be mostly on Precisions nowadays and it just hangs on the wall. The bass is well played and is a players bass, certainly not a collectors. Bumps and bruises but plays nicely and works exactly as it should. Link to history of the mods etc - Cash or bank transfer is good but may trade. Try me with anything. Basses, BF 110 etc Collection from BB22SH or will post at buyers cost and risk.

  12. Lovely P basses these. They play superbly. I usually preferably Jazz neck on a Precision but these are great as they are. They just seem to sit perfectly in the mix too. I used mine with an Eden Metro combo and the combination was brilliant. Sold mine in another moment of madness ( I’ve had a few of them 😂). I’d love to buy this but I’ve got more pressing buys at the moment unfortunately. Good price. Someone will be happy. GLWTS
  13. I had one of these just the same. Great bass. Sold it because I’m stupid. Wish something of mine would sell as I think I’d willingly cave with this one 🤣
  14. Dave just bought my bitsa Jazz. A really easy sale. Everything went as it should. Nice fella to deal with. Thanks again Dave 😁 Cheers Dunc
  15. I bought a P pickup from Tim. It arrived quickly and exactly as described. Great communication and a pleasant fella to deal with too 😁 What more could you want? Thanks again Tim. Cheers Dunc
  16. Barefaced Super Twin. 4ohm, 212, 1200w, 18kg. Great cab with tilt wheels, plus top and side handle.
  17. Just the type of thing I need. A 22 fret Jazz, decent, light and a good price. Unfortunately, I really need to move something on before I buy anything else. The market is painfully slow!!! Aaaaaaaggghhhhh! 🫤
  18. Here’s an Olympic white bitsa that consists of a Fender USA body from the 90’s, Fender Jap 64 electrics, I was told that have been in there since then. I got the body loaded on here a few years ago and the seller had it as a build lying in his wardrobe since the 90’s. The bound neck I bought separately and is maple with rosewood (I think). No name with a Fender logo. The tuners aren’t great but do work and hold tune. It’s in good condition with a few blemishes. There’s a few marks here and there but nothing horrendous. There has been another string retainer on it at some point as you can see in the photos and it looks like someone has managed to use a screw that was too long for one of the tuners at some point and it’s poked through the front of the headstock. Nothing major. It doesn’t look like a bullet hole or someone’s hacked their way through it with a butter knife or anything like that either. It’s a Jazz so it weighs about 9 1/2 lb I reckon but that’s only a guess. That’s a mark actually in the wood on the back of the neck, not a gouge or a scratch etc. It sounds great and plays nicely but does need a set up. The neck pickup seems to make an odd rustling noise now and again. I cleaned the pots and it improved immediately but hasn’t gone completely. I put it down to 25 years or so in a wardrobe. It needs some tlc and I can’t see me getting round to doing it either. I only use it as a backup to a Precision and so a P Bass would be more useful to me. I may trade for a 22 b24 fret bass. Must have good intonation / action. It’s for tapping. Or, Olympic white Precision or Yamaha EAD10. Try me with anything musically related though. You never know. Will post to mainland UK with the neck off as I have no case or collection from Blackburn Lancs.
  19. This is all the cab anyone sane will ever need. I’m not 100% sure but this may well have been mine and if so, it’s colossal! I’ve now got the Super Twin and I’m still thinking of ways to nab this back 🤣
  20. Sold an amp to Simon, fast payment, great communication and a splendid chap to deal with too. What more could you want? Top BC man 😁. Thanks again. Cheers Dunc
  21. I bought this recently on here but since have acquired 2 amps with built in tuners and so, this is no longer needed. Payment via bank transfer please.
  22. EHX Bass Clone, sounds great, all works as it should and has plenty of signs of use. I’ve just acquired a Multiamp and so now this little fella is no longer required. Payment via bank transfer please.
  23. Works as it should. Shows some signs of use. Now surplus to requirements.
  24. All works as it should but has signs of use. Payment via bank transfer please.
