  2. I just sold a Basswitch IQ Di to Etienne and I have nothing but good words to say about him. Easy to chat with, quick payment and a true gent. Happy to recommend him!
  3. [quote name='funkydario' timestamp='1480184010' post='3182379'] trade considered ?? [/quote] Hi, sorry, just looking for a sale thanks.
  4. I just sold a Sadowsky onboard preamp to Michael - nice, easy transaction, great communication and a pleasure to do business with!

    The bridge pickup is definitely weaker than the neck pup, and agree with Graham that its main purpose seems to be as a tone control; however (and I appreciate I may be totally alone in this view !! ), but I think it can be used to get that J bridge pup tone, especially in conjunction with a boost pedal. Not ideal by an means, but not completely useless on its own either in my view. But if you're looking for something near an overall Jazz tone I'm not sure the SB2 would be for you - it's defiantly more a P than a J in my experience.

    I never missed it but I found a reasonable range of tones between the two volume pots. I never regarded it as fiddly either, certainly no more than twisting a tone pot. I know some SB2 owners have missed the tone though and it's a fairly straightforward mod to add one apparently (I've also heard you can custom order one from G&L with the tone control added). I've never owned a trib but I've heard nothing but good things about them and they seem great value.

    Two is good, but if I ever go for another, a fretless kiloton would be tempting

    I had four at one point (an ASAT too); two is good (for now....)

    And a ten minute fiddle and the JB becomes a PJ [URL=http://s844.photobucket.com/user/jspaterson/media/Public/Talkbass/fullsizeoutput_306f_zpsudtaoik5.jpeg.html][IMG]http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab5/jspaterson/Public/Talkbass/fullsizeoutput_306f_zpsudtaoik5.jpeg[/IMG][/URL]

    I still have these two though [URL=http://s844.photobucket.com/user/jspaterson/media/Public/Talkbass/06ea871a-87dc-4679-94bb-16134b0b2b8f_zpshvgtefbs.jpg.html][IMG]http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab5/jspaterson/Public/Talkbass/06ea871a-87dc-4679-94bb-16134b0b2b8f_zpshvgtefbs.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

    [quote name='DBerriff' timestamp='1477826532' post='3164619'] I could not find one in the stores, but it doesn't matter as I have just bought this from Embra and it could easily have passed for brand new: Rather good it is too. I played an SB-2 for a few years before moving to 5 strings, and sold it 2 or 3 years ago. Guess what? I have been missing it so when this was listed, I weakened. I am familiar with the quirks of the model and know how to get the pickups to work for me. I prefer the neck on this: 1-5/8" and 7.5" radius. The traditional radius immediately felt natural. Now, the sound. Has Paul Gagon been tweaking the pickups? It has the weight and clarity I remember, but more clarity and more controlled bass. So I am a really happy bunny. A beautiful, pristine bass added to the fold, and one I know I can use. [/quote] Glad you like it!
  13. Thanks for the feedback! A pleasure doing business with you (good communication, very quick payment and a real gent too); it's good to know the bass has gone to a good home and she'll be in good hands!
  14. This is now sold; thanks for looking.
  15. Yes, it is very useful as a sort of jack-of-all-trades 'command centre'. I had my compressor in the always on loop and then various other pedals in the switchable loop. For me, the best thing about it is the quality of the tones out of it. I've never put it straight through a power amp but it defiantly added something special. If they did a smaller version with the same transformer and EQ I'd be seriously tempted.
