  1. FOR SALE Fender Super55 Jazz Bass Pick Up Set As new - bought to fit my Jazz Bass but ended up buying some Fralins instead for a more vintage sound £70.00 posted
  2. [b]FOR SALE[/b] [b]Genz Benz Contour 500 115T[/b] [u]£280 collected from Nottingham - happy to deliver for diesel money or meet up half way etc[/u] In very good condition with some very minor gig rash. 300W as is but can be cranked up to 500W by adding an extension cab. On it's own it's more than powerful enough for small and medium sized venues I've owned this for about 2 years and am moving it on as I have another rig Blurb from the GB website - it weighs in at 48lbs which is around 20kg [b][u]FEATURES[/u][/b] • Full Featured FET Preamp Design • 300W @ 8 ohms; 500W @ 4 ohms • Class D Power Amp and SMPS • Gain and Volume Controls for a Wide Range of Gain Settings • L.F. and H.F., Shelving EQ Networks • Parametric Midrange Filter • Contour Tone-shaping Network • Input Mute • XLR Direct Output w/Ground Lift • Fan Cooling • Multi-layer Plywood Construction • Heavy-duty Molded Strap Handle • Heavy-duty Metal Perforated Grille • 3 Way Tweeter Level Control [b][u]DESCRIPTION[/u][/b] The CONTOUR™ amp is mated to our 1x15" loudspeaker and compression tweeter in a front ported, lightweight cabinet. This combination produces big, round, low-end and clear mid-range reproduction. The tweeter adds just the right amount of snap to the top end.

  4. Chris Squire (I bought a Ricky cos of him) Bruce Foxton (the tone and it's The Jam FFS) Gerry McAvoy (I am a major Rory fan) Jean Jacques Brunel (tone) Jack Bruce - number 1 for me and Chris Hodgkinson, Spencer Davis Group - best bass solo I've ever seen live - he was bending notes like a lead guitarist.....must have fingers of titanium

[size=3][font=arial, sans-serif]This here's a story about Billy Joe and Bobbie Sue Two young lovers with nothin' better to do Than sit around the house, get high, and watch the tube And here is what happened when they decided to cut loose[/font] [font=arial, sans-serif]They headed down to, ooh, old El Paso That's where they ran into a great big hassle Billy Joe shot a man while robbing his castle Bobbie Sue took the money and run[/font] [font=arial, sans-serif]Go on take the money and run.............[/font] [font=arial, sans-serif]I'm not advocating shooting someone...obvs![/font][/size]
  6. [i][b]""If its hard to get gigs then I would offer the following: This is wot i done: Say Ok. To prove we are worth it...We will play for 1 straight hour and then go. If you punters like it and if you are busy you can pay a full gigs money to keep us there. The other bonus is you now know what we look and sound like. Hows that? In my case it was agreed and he paid full whack on the day.""[/b][/i] This is a good one, will try this in future ..and it's all about building a following so I'd go for it and make sure the audience at least know what your website is - we leave business cards scattered about with our contact details and soc med stuff
  7. Hello all For Sale: Hao Rust Ride £40 posted (or £35 collected from Nottingham) Bought from Joeyfivebags of this parish about 18 months ago It has a few chips to the paintwork but everything else works as it should 3 settings Normal, Bright & Warm (the best setting IMO) Inputs for active and passive basses & DI out for PA Velcro strip on the bottom YouTube demo here [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSY3N_Cz92E"]https://www.youtube....h?v=BSY3N_Cz92E[/url] It's built like the proverbial 15th century midden so very handy for beating off drunken stage invaders (I imagine) Some blurb I found [size=5][color=#333333]HAO Rust Ride Bass Driver:[/color] [color=#333333]The HAO Rust Ride Bass Driver was designed to provide the Bass Player with a functional, professional-quality overdrive without compromising note clarity or low-end response. [/color][/size] [size=5][color=#333333]The components of the HAO Rust Ride were painstakingly selected in order to maintain the original Bass tone and note attack/release dynamics that are typically lost with other OD units. [/color][/size] [size=5][color=#333333]Its preset EQ offers three different frequency curves without altering the overall frequency operation range, providing voicing options that cant be achieved w/a normal tone control. Passive and Active inputs allow the HAO Rust Ride to operate with any type of Bass while individual Dry and Effect outputs offer routing of clean Bass tone to a tuner, P.A. system, or a second amplifier.[/color][/size] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] Input Impedance: Approx. 500K-ohm Output Impedance: Approx. 100K-ohm Controls: Level, 3-Position mini EQ Switch: (Normal, Bright, Warm) Power: DC9V Adaptor Jack (Negative Tip) Switching: True Bypass ON/OFF Footswitch with LED Size: 121(L) x 86(W) x 36(H) mm (excluding knob, switches, and jacks)[/font][/color] [color=#333333]Link to some other blurb I found [/color][url="http://www.pedalspluseffectswarehouse.com/HAO_Rust_Ride_p/hao-rr1.htm"]http://www.pedalsplu...e_p/hao-rr1.htm[/url] - sound clips at the bottom of this page Thumbnails in HD here [url="http://s1210.photobucket.com/user/philbichughesey/Hao%20Rust%20Ride/story"]http://s1210.photobu...st%20Ride/story[/url] £50 posted - no psu or original box
