  1. No trades?
  2. [quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1396687148' post='2416370'] I suggest it might depends on the music you're playing. Pub rock and Mustang Sally? I would too. But anything with soul, RnB etc. and there's no reason to be concerned. Of course, you could always not worry about the opinions of people you don't know... [/quote] I go on stage a few nights a week with my Fodera YYS and my Alembic epic and play Alt rock/thrash. I've never felt like an idiot!
  3. [quote name='ez-pieces' timestamp='1396622529' post='2415777'] Hello Very nice bass Are you interessted in a trade with an fbass. Bn5 in black with Maple neck? Best regards [/quote] You do know this is a Metro right? Not an NYC, Fbasses are worth a lot more..
  4. I've pm'ed you about this mate
  5. Hi folks, Some will be repulsed at the idea but I'm willing to pay someone to refinish my Sadowsky, it's a MV5 tobacco burst and I'm after it going to a trans black, (I like the grain of the swamp ash) or if not a refin I'm still thinking about a nice worn in/relic look. This bass has enormous sentimental value so don't "your crazy, value?! Money?!" Yada yada yada, I'm taking this one to my grave so I'll be doing with it what I fancy. Can anyone recommend me a decent uk based luthier who will handle this situation with care? I love this bass more than my Fodera believe it or not, just has more mojo..maybe because it's been excessively beaten... *rambling. Thanks in advance! JBF
  6. [quote name='jazzyvee' timestamp='1396509263' post='2414357'] I don't mind you asking as long as you don't mind me keeping the price I paid private. ��:-) [/quote] Of course
  7. [quote name='jazzyvee' timestamp='1396443468' post='2413678'] There has been an Alembic Persuader maybe thats what was meant. Actually there are a few black alembics around. I have one made in 2009 i think and FC spoiler does also. Jazzyvee [/quote] I'm dam jealous Jazzyvee mind if I asked how much it cost you? A limb? There were Persuaders and spoilers, I thought Alembic had a Crusader model? Maybe not and could of been the Persuader I meant, not sure myself! XD
  8. Here's a plug for *ahem my Epic is still for sale O.o
  9. So many people look down on the Epics too, really underrated basses
  10. I'm still after one for the same reason, Orions, Elans, Spoilers and Crusders are definitely not the lower end of the range mate. Epics are the lower end, which I own one, but not as physically appealing as a black spoiler or Élan. I'd give my Fodera for one of them..
  11. Decided to sell my Trace Elliot twin valve head as I'm not using it much anymore. As you can see it's quite well worn in, I bought this from the original owner a few years back. As you can see it has abit of battle damage, it was built on 13.03.90 according to the label inside so she's a good 24 years old and still going strong. She works all fine, very clean inside and the valves are fairly fresh. I put this at the low price because a few of the levers broke off obviously from the original owner not being careful enough, it's honestly no worry though I know it looks like you can't alter them, but the slightest bit of fingernail you can. This is a great old amp and a workhorse to be honest, I would describe the tones as very warm, creamy and well voiced, very typical awesome trace tone but with some vintage mojo in there too!
  12. Does anyone reckon a zt lunchbox would be a good idea for bass?
  13. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1395586407' post='2403962'] Specs are [url="http://www.ampeg.com/products/classic/microcl/"]here[/url]. As to reliability I've not owned one, so can't tell you. [/quote] The unbalanced line out puts me off slightly
  14. I was looking at the Micro CL by Ampeg but I can't judge how small/reliable they are..
  15. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1395581460' post='2403866'] Gigging amp or practice amp or both? [/quote] More practice I guess
  16. So I go travelling next weekend and I figured it's about time I got a new amp head or a good portable travel amp, I really want something between £200-£400 that has an Aux in too. I've been looking around and really not seen much that takes my fancy or much that I'd deem very easily portable. I was hoping for some suggestions and advice, help!?
  17. If only I had one of them black Elans Newsted had, dream bass right there. Would definitely trade my Fodera for one!
  18. Has anyone got a black Alembic? Spoiler, Europa, Élan or crusader? Very intrigued to see if they are still around somewhere?!
