What a lovely instrument!!! -
This is the one!!! Amazing amp from Jim Bergantino. I'm not enjoying this...or selling because I've found better. It's to help fund a bigger, more annoying thing I've got going on. I'll no doubt buy another one some time down the line. It really is killer. I'm certainly never buying a heavy weight amp again. I've done DB750 and EBS Fafner and I'll take this every time. I bought new from Bass Direct. Only 3 months old. Never gigged. It's immaculate. All original packaging included. I'll include a 1m speakon to speakon lead in the deal. £1100 + insured courier or collect from me near Bristol Airport. No trades. All the specs are here... https://bergantino.com/fortehp/

I've never strung it with rounds I'm afraid. Not my thing but there is a 44-64 flatwound vs roundwound string comparison video on y**t**e. Might give you an idea of ballpark tone.

***£1900*** until 18:00 Thursday 10th September then being withdrawn. Hi folks, I'm doing the unthinkable and selling this gorgeous 5 string USA Lakland P5. Known as 55-64, Bob Glaub and now 55-64 "Vintage P". Here are the specs; 35" scale Alder body Fiesta Red finish Tort pickguard 1 piece maple neck satin finish Rosewood board Birdseye maple dot inlays Hipshot ultralight tuners Passive tone controls Lindy pickup Strung with TI Flats Weight 4.4kg Condition is near mint. One tiny dink on the headstock. A few extremely minor impressions in the body finish if you get your magnifying glass out. I'm being very picky. My picture are in direct daylight. Minor scatch on the pickguard between the control pots. This bass has recently been professionally cleaned and setup. Plays and sounds like butter. Long waiting list and about £4000 to buy a new one of these. Comes with its plush lined Lakland hardcase also in top condition. Sale will include a pretty much brand new Neotech Megastrap. Price is £2200 ovno. Shipping will be quoted depending on where you want this sent. Fully insured shipping only. We can also discuss me delivering to you in person if I'm anywhere near your location at the time. I'd much prefer collection if possible. I live very close to Bristol Airport UK. Any questions or comments welcome. No trades so please don't ask! Pics now updated 30/11/19. Thanks!

Nice! Not seen these pedals before. Do you own one Luke? Impressions? The pedal format and presets for bass specifically make it a very attractive piece. I'd like to try one. This might be going OT though as the OP wants an 1176 clone but anyway. The API Piece does seem good value for money for what you get. Price up an api channel strip and you'll know what i mean. Also if you did buy a channel strip or multiple pieces of outboard then you also got to learn how to use it well! Which settings work best for the application? Probably numerous applications without a quick recall. This presents quite a learning curve if you are not well versed in using lots of bits of kit and the nuances between all the different types of analogue circuit architectures, eq curves, all the different compression and limiting effects. There is a lot to get wrong in the wrong hands (not doubting anyones abilities here). You are probably not going to get great value for money on pricey outboard gear unless you are getting paid very well for your music or use it daily to track multiple instruments and vocals in a studio with punters paying a good wedge for the privelige of getting recorded on said gear. In which case have at! In a live situation, unless the live venue is absolutely amazing and acoustically designed to hear a pin drop I'm not sure dragging an 1176 on stage is going to gain much if anything in the mix. Really its getting to the relms of how good front of house is. Are they using a huge vintage Neve or API desk to mix the band? Neumann mics everywhere? Performance monitored through a huge TAD horn sound system. Hey wait...that's a high end studio.

I've never tried plugging a bass straight into an 1176 but I do know back in the 70's, bass on many classic jazzfunk tracks were recorded DI on a very nice desk channel > eq > compression > tape. I expect you need a pre/DI to gain stage and hit the 1176's with enough dynamic range to make it effective and worthwhile. If you love the idea of a sexy looking 70's style recording chain to take out for live use I would go to your nearest pro audio dealer and audition some 500 series modules in a lunchbox. This way you could collect and swap out modules to put together a killer portable chain to your taste which you can build over time. A 4 or 6 unit lunchbox could be carried from studio to gig and popped on top of your rig. Yea I've thought about it! Example chain could be; A-designs P1 pre/DI (70's Pacifica desk channel clone) > A-designs EM-PEQ (Pultec eq clone) > Pete's Place Audio BAC500 (1176 clone) > Neve 542 analogue tape saturation emulator circuit. There are so many 500 series modules out now from the likes of API (of course), Neve, Chandler, etc etc. Not cheep though! Sorry!
