    Bump for a really nice jazz, before it goes to the bay...

    A lot of great advice here. I agree with some - MB cabs are 'woody' and uninspiring to my ears, but then I've always played active basses with soapbars through them and been underwhelmed (seem to remember playing a jazz with DiMarzios and being disappointed too?), so I may be delighted by the results with an old P. If you want real sparkle, change the cabs, but a string change/outboard preamp/pup change could make all the difference you're after. Cheers, Tobie

    Hi, Are you happy to split these? If so, what are you after for the cab? Cheers, Tobie

    Currently using one these and really enjoying it. It's a lovely, tasteful chorus. Amazing value!

    A really nice, quality fiver for not much money anyone?

    Excellent jazz bass, with quality pickups and wiring, on a shoestring anyone?

    Bargain!

    Thanks for this. It looks absolutely perfect for what I need - can even run the VT1 off it. Have ordered a Vitoos - £42 including postage! Cheers, Tobie

    Ah - thanks for the heads up. I'll edit accordingly.

    Cheers TheGreek. I thought I'd insured with Hermes before, but perhaps my memory's failing me...

    For sale is my Bass Collection Jive in excellent condition. This a good quality and reasonably light (4.1kg using the crude bathroom scales trick) jazz bass that growls along nicely. It sports a basswood body (slightly less deep than a jazz), maple neck and rosewood board. The nut is 38mm. I have a light touch and the action can be set fairly low. The colour is more turquoise in the flesh, the scratch plate is mint green and the chrome pickup cover is included. I've had DiMarzio DP123s fitted and a conversion to VBT with CTS pots and a Switchcraft jack. There is one tiny dent in the lacquer that I've attempted to photograph - otherwise it's pretty much spotless, bar some very light swirling (not photographable) by the bottom strap pin and a dent in the casing of the bridge pup. Obviously, collection from Manchester is preferable. I have no spare cases/gigbags, but happy to box up and post within the UK (I anticipate shipping will be around £25). No trades thanks. Cheers, Tobie

    For sale is my 2014 Cort B5 in very good condition. This a really well-made, articulate-sounding and easy-playing fiver - it has served me well for my gospel playing in particular. There are a few tiny dents that I've attempted to photograph and a 5p-sized dark mark on the back of the upper horn. The wenge/rosewood laminate neck is not *completely* smooth between 1st and 5th fret, due to the wenge's grain. This is near-imperceptible and not photographable. It doesn't affect playing whatsoever, but I mention for the sake of transparency. Spec Mahogany body Wenge/rosewood neck Rosewood FB Bartolini MK1 pups and pre Hipshot lic. ultralight tuners 45mm at the nut 16.5 string spacing 3.7kg using the crude bathroom scales trick Obviously, collection from Manchester is preferable.

    Power Brick

    tobiewharton posted a topic in Effects

    I'm in the process of expanding my pedal board. Was previously running off a 1 Spot, but considering a brick now for 8+ pedals. I have a DHA VT1 incoming and happy to use the dedicated supply for that. To the best of my (almost non-existent) knowledge, everything else currently in the stable (tuner, comp, octaver, filter, fuzz, chorus, preamp) shouldn't be troublesome without isolation, but I may add reverb and tremolo in the near future, which I understand may be. Is isolation essential for reverb/trem/delay? Now I don't find the prospect of an all-singing-all-dancing power supply particularly exciting and would begrudge an outlay of any more than £120 at the absolute most. The Palmer MI PWT 08 seems like a fairly sensibly priced contender, though it seems to come with a European power pack and I don't want to faff about with adapters. I am no technician and generally find these things boring at best and incredibly frustrating at worst. I just want something reasonable that will do the job and last. Pie in the sky?! As always, any insight and advice much appreciated! Cheers, Tobie

    This looks wonderful! Really like the spec you've chosen.
