What's wrong with Elites? I share the same opinion, lighter strings are nicer - just curious as to why you do like them, as I havn't really tried any other strings! Cheers

[quote name='dannybuoy' post='512204' date='Jun 12 2009, 03:15 PM'][url="http://www.stringstar.com/"]Stringstar.com[/url] is a brand new site too, seems to be the only UK stockist I can find for Pyramid Gold flats, possibly the most awesomest flats in the world.[/quote] Quite impressive prices! And free postage! Not the greatest selection for bass though, and no offers for buying more than one set! Good spot BTW!

UK made too - not a bad amp for the money!

I've just had a look at online prices, and All I can say is: THIS IS A BARGAIN! If these havn't sold in a few days I'll be on your tail - I just don't play my acoustic bass enough!

I remember only 7 months ago these were fetching 200 quid no problems! Someone is going to get a steal!

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='509802' date='Jun 10 2009, 01:24 AM']I like the way they just quietly sell strings, efficiently at a good price, and don't feel the need to make a big noise about how important customer service is to them in every paragraph they print - that kind of stuff really irks me now.[/quote] I agree, they're so chilled out yet on the ball!

You have PM re PJ set

It was a 7 band EQ, I must add!

I used to really want one of these basses! Literally 5 years ago I was dribbling over pictures of this on interweb. What's the action like on it? Would it be possible to come and try it out? Should I buy this or a Dynacord Valve amp? I'd be happy coming to pic it up - you'r only about 100 miles away! I'll look in my bank account - see if there's anything there! Ben

And look - they've got a consistent service too! I challege someone to find something bad about this company!

Post edited - with price!

Sorry must say that the one I tried had a 12 band EQ (I think), but nonetheless this will provide a good bass combo for someone! x

Not a bad amp, depsite the ber'm*nger' label...! I've played through one of these, and the EQ and range of tone availalbe is great. One benifit that most amps nowadays don't have is an extra gain channel - for those people who like distortion. This is a great amp for the money - probably suite a newish bassist who wants to try different/find his own sound whilst on a budget. Quite loud also - not a bad rip off of the Hartke aluminium cone! Good luck with the sale. Ben

Hi there, I just wanted to take this opportunity to 'big up' [url="http://www.stringbusters.com/"]stringbusters.[/url] They are easily the fastest and politest company I've dealt with - I placed an order yesterday afternoon, and the strings arrive in the post this morning! P+P is only £1.50 too, so that was quite some postal service! Before you ask, no this isn't my own company and I don't owe them any favours - they really are just brilliant. I hope I have influenced you! Ben x

These still for sale? Ben

Bump.

I'll change my pants....

I've got one of these - good little amps especially for the money. Don't be put off by the 6" cone. I ran my acoustic bass through it just to see how it handled it, and it performed very well! I'm pretty tempted to start using it as a vocal monitor for gigs - just tilted! Have a Bump!

Excellent, Thanks pal for a quick reply!

Excellent, Thanks pal for a quick reply!

yeh loads..... lol you just proved my point!

Hi there, Just wondered if you'd be up for selling or trading the scratch plate on this bass? I've got a tort one (more brown than this) and I'm after a red one! Cheers, Ben

I'm after the red scratch plate - noboy wants to sell me one! Is it a 13 hole, and will you trade for the darker tort? Cheers

+ 1 I've got a few quid sitting in paypal at the mo and it WILL be spent soon! How much are these anyway?!
