  1. Hi Never noticed the spec sheet has it as a LB100! I'm afraid I don't have a sonic blue LB100... it's a G&L mistake (they get the pickup details wrong too) - everything else on the sheet is accurate though (and it does belong to the SB-2, you can see from the rear of the headstock the serial numbers match). As for weight, I've just weighed it using a balanzza digital luggage scale and it comes out at 9.5 lbs (I checked the weight of my (real) LB100 too as I know the dealer weighed it at 7.5 lbs and I get the same reading so I think it's a fairly accurate scale). I always thought the SB-2 felt quite light but then my JB weighs 10.5 lbs so I guess it was all relative... Hope that helps!
  2. Another bump
  3. A few people on talkbass claim it's halfway between ash and alder but to me it possibly sounds closer to ash although i guess that could just be the neck adding something
  4. Loving it so far; probably not a fair comparison to the SB-2 as it that is so hot, but it has plenty of punch and the low-mid thing going on and it's warm and 'phat' too. I've got labella flats on it and it covers the typical p-bass sounds i want to hear. There's a little bit of bite and growl if you play near the bridge, the action is low and the neck is just sublime. I had a US precision which I stupidly sold but this is just as good and a great deal lighter.
  5. Price drop! Now £1000. A bargain for a P-bass killer in pristine condition!
  6. I'll drop the price to £95 until Sunday, if there are no takers it will go on the bay.
  7. Thanks Haimesy!
  8. [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]For sale: now £875, no trades thanks. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]A 2014 US made G&L SB-2 in sonic blue with an alder body and a maple neck. I’m selling it as I’ve just received another custom order LB100 made of empress wood which my dodgy back loves due to its low weight! [/size][/font][/color] [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]These are the specs:[/size][/font][/color][list] [*]Sonic blue alder body [*]Bolt-on Quarter-sawn maple neck (no. 11 neck, 1 5/8 inch nut width and 7.5 inch radius) [*]Light tint satin finish on neck [*]Scale: 34” [*]Pickups: Leo Fender-designed G&L MFD split-coil (neck) and single coil (bridge) [*]Frets: Medium Jumbo, Jescar 57110 18% nickel silver [*]Tuning keys: Custom G&L "Ultra-Lite" with aluminium tapered string posts [*]Bridge: Leo Fender-designed G&L Saddle-Lock with chrome-plated brass saddles [*]Electronics: dual-volume [*]Deluxe Tolex hardshell case [/list] [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]It comes with all the original case candy. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]It sounds amazing. The neck pup is hot and will push tubes or an overdrive pedal harder than a normal P-bass pickup. The neck is stunning and has a lovely solid feel to it, a wee bit like the current US Precisions (I love it so much my new LB100 it has the same neck). The bridge pickup acts as a sort of tone control: my favourite settings are:[/size][/font][/color][list] [*]Bridge off, neck full on - P-bass on steroids. [*]Bridge off, neck 2/3 on - very close to P-bass [*]Bridge 3/4, neck full on - balanced, warm but punchy SB-2 signature sound; not quite like most PJs I’ve played, but very close. [/list] [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]It also does a passable J-bass bridge pup sound, I prefer bridge full on, neck 3/4 for several songs with the band. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]Postage included: it will be fully insured with UPS to mainland UK (please contact me if you live in remote rural areas like the Lake District, Highlands etc as they upcharge for those deliveries). It will be fully protected in G&L cardboard packaging and bubble wrap. Happy to post overseas but pm me for a quote. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]If you live close to Edinburgh you’re welcome to come around and try it through my Demeter Minnie head and Bergantino HD112 cabs (and various pedals if you’re keen). [/size][/font][/color] [color=#454545][font=Helvetica][size=3]As you can see from the photos it is in immaculate condition. There are no scratches or dings anywhere on it. The frets are also in excellent condition, I had LaBella flats on it exclusively (great combo) but it now has a fresh set of sunbeams (I’ll also throw in the original D’Addario rounds).

  9. £105 posted to the UK; no trades thanks This is a looper pedal I custom ordered from James this year. I wanted something with a blend (with Phase switch, full wet to full dry) for a fuzz pedal so I can cut through, a trails function (last loop) for reverb and a side input and he delivered bug time. It has 4 loops, a master bypass, different colour LEDs and a tuner out/mute. As you'd expect from BOP, the quality if fantastic and it works very well with the blend. As you can see from the photos, it's in excellent condition and fits very well on a PT Junior Classic (other pedals not for sale). I've started using a programmable looper with midi hence sale. It has velcro along the full length of the base. Dimensions (just chassis in cm, length, depth, height): 39 x 6.3 x 4.2; (with switches, blend knob etc): 40 x 8.0 x 5.8 [attachment=205595:P1020212.jpg] More photos: [url="http://s844.photobucket.com/user/jspaterson/slideshow/Public/BrightOnion%20Switch%20Looper"]http://s844.photobuc...Switch%20Looper[/url]
  10. +1 to the comments. My favourite amp. Stunningly good, surprised it hasn't been snapped up yet. To hear a Precision through this and some Berg cabs is to spend time in bass heaven
  11. No biters so I've reduced the price on all the pedals. I'll leave them up here for a week or so then if they're still here, they'll go on ebay
  12. Price is actually for all three is £380, BC won't let me change the original post.
  13. Three great bass pedals for sale. They are all in immaculate condition and look as new but they all have velcro neatly attached to the bottom. All prices include postage to UK only (pm if you'd like a postal quote for other countries). No trades thanks. Detailed photos can be seen here: [url="http://s844.photobucket.com/user/jspaterson/slideshow/Pedals%20for%20sale"]http://s844.photobuc...ls%20for%20sale[/url] [b]SOLD [/b][s][b]Darkglass Super Symmetry Compressor £170[/b][/s][b] SOLD[/b] Great compressor, very transparent and the usual DG build quality. But, it hasn't budged my Cali76 TX off the board so it's for sale. All the original box candy [b]Withdrawn [s]Fairfield Circuitry the Barbershop Millenium Overdrive[/s] [/b] My favourite OD of the many I've tried, only selling it as I have the smaller mini 'Modele B' version now. As you can see from the photos, it's in pristine condition and comes with the all the box candy. [b]Withdrawn [/b][s][b] EWS BMC Bass Mid Control[/b][/s] Tiny bass mid control pedal which is great at the end of your chain for providing some punch. Selectable frequency (120Hz ~ 3kHz) and the Boost/Cut gives you up to + / - 12dB. Sounds great at 18v and works at 9v too. Reluctant sale but my Empress ParaEQ covers the same ground.
  14. Dropped the price again, get it now for £120.
  15. Just dropped the price to £135
  16. Price drop. Now £120 For sale, [b]no trades[/b], a EHX bass micro-synth pedal in excellent condition. I've had it a few months, it's never been gigged and is in perfect condition.

Ask for a quote for overseas countries. <script src="safari-extension://com.ebay.safari.myebaymanager-QYHMMGCMJR/e177a237/background/helpers/prefilterHelper.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
