  1. I know that the Sterling SUB models had a very hot pre amp but they were 2 band and I`m guessing that yours is a 3 band? Have you tried turning the volume down to say 3/4 and seeing if the distortion goes away? A bit obvious I know.
  2. Here we have a M2000 project. The active developed a fault a while back so I replaced it with a passive circuit and while I was at it, removed the back pickup as I wanted a L1000 set up. Madness I know but it seemed like a good idea at the time I loaned it out for a while but got it back and I have no need for it so here we are. The body is in good condition, just a few small marks, as is the neck. The 3 small knobs are where the active controls were, they have pots in there just to hide the holes and are not connected to anything. The 2 large knobs are the volume and treble. The bass plays fine in this passive set up. The piece of plastic hides the hole for the second pickup which I no longer have. I wired the passive set up myself but as I`m crap at soldering, you would be better to have the electrics re done hence the low price. Weight is 8.2 lb`s, I would prefer collection but if you want it posted for an extra £10, I will send it with the neck detached so bear this in mind. Please remember this is being sold at a silly price as a project. Paypal f^f or bank transfer.
  3. Had one a few years back, weighed as much as a small house! Was that the one from Richtone? It looked in very good nick.
  4. Jim bought a pedal from me, good guy to deal with, recommended. Ta
  5. Paddy bought a pedal from me, fast payment and easy peasy. Ta
  6. Here is my Electra for sale in the classified. I wouldn`t pay nearly £800 new but for £425 posted, yum yum!
  7. Finalish bump for a budget Jazz with the usual Sandberg quality. These now retail around the £800 mark just for price context.
  8. As new*, bit of velcro on the back. £90 posted UK mainland, paypal f&f or bank transfer. "The micro-Thumpinator is a bandwidth optimizer designed for bass guitar. It removes the low frequency signals that are outside the range of notes produced by the instrument." *Just noticed the white mark next to the 9 volt +, it`s a bit of dust.
  9. Now £400 collected or £425 posted to UK mainland.
  10. Here we have a nice Sandberg Electra TT 4, basically their budget active Jazz. For info, they are assembled by Sandberg in Germany from Korean made components. This one is in very good condition, just a few very small marks that I cannot photograph and the usual dust that seems to accompany any black bass! Controls are volume, blend and stacked bass and treble. Weight is 9 lb`s. Looking for £425 delivered to UK or £400 collected.
  11. As above, it is a short scale bass - 30 inch but due to the string through body bridge, then the correct strings are medium scale - 32 inch. Lovely looking bass by the way.
  12. Bought these recently for my Sterling Ray but they are not for me, only had about 30 mins play. £20 posted UK
  13. UK postage included, no original box but will be well packed, velcro on the bottom. TC Spectracomp, exc condition £50
  14. The pickguard is correct, I believe it was originally white with strat style knobs. I had one yonks ago but it wasn`t anything spectacular so around £350 seems about right considering it looks like it needs a damm good clean.
  15. We played a couple of bikers gigs in the past, zero reaction all the way through but at the end of the gig some came up and said they loved it. But the last one we played, a guy was very aggressive towards me and kept telling me to smile. After that little escapade we agreed on a no more bikers show rule. A pity as some of us were bikers in the past but it`s not worth the grief.
  16. What, you can actually make money doing this music lark??? 😁😁
  17. As I come from Paisley maybe I should buy it and keep it in the town, maybe play it in The Old Swan next month? Only one snag, I`m £21,000 short!
  18. I bought a black one of these at the weekend locally from FB marketplace. Got it for a good price and it`s minty. They are cracking basses, enjoy yours!
  19. Changing pickups in a bass is a bit of a crap shoot really. I have bought "better" pickups to put in a bass and found that the original ones were better. Also your idea of a good bass sound will be different to mine so the only thing I can suggest is you try it and see what you think.
  20. The last time I did a dep thing was about 15 years ago. It was in a place called Bonnybridge just outside Falkirk, some old hotel on the main st. It was all the drummers fault as he was desperate! He gave me a list of songs, most of which they didn`t play, the one`s I did know weren`t in the original keys and the corner of the bar we were playing in was so small that the guitarist, who had a massive beer belly, couldn`t see his pedal board and I changed the pedals for him. Never again!
  21. Bought a pedal from Kevin, all good and he it posted the same day so a big thanks! Gerry
  22. 14 year old topic! Is this a record?
  23. That`s the type of thing I get every time I post an event!
  24. Available again but collection or localish meet up only.
