    I bought a combo, footswitch, tweeter and all the leads were kindly included. Communication was excellent - one phone conversation and it was all sorted. All the items were in superb condition and exactly as described. They were packed with care in a rugged box, and arrived safely in very quick time.This transaction couldn't have been better. A real pleasure, many thanks.

    Thanks icastle for the response. Youre right I think, the wiring seems undisturbed and the other components are very clean - the bass has hardly been out of the house since new Im told. The IC is a JRC 4558D which is thankfully still available cheaply on ebay (£1.20 each). Its the same chip as in a Tubescreamer I understand and no doubt in other Ibanez basses. I've ordered a few - should arrive in a week or so. Now if I can find a man who can solder ICs safely ..... Many thanks again for your help

    A Soundgear SR800 from 1987. Wiring has not been tampered with and Im trying to diagnose a non working tone circuit. The bass control pot has stopped working, and the treble pot acts as another volume control. Anybody know anyone near Nottingham who could diagnose the problem ? ALSO on these instruments, each pot has a small PCB attached with a couple of capacitors and resistors. Anyone know why ? Is it because the pickups are low impedance ? or is it to adjust the tone ? FINALLY - Id love to teach myself, anyone know a good book on guitar circuits ? Any help would be much appreciated

    I used to have one of these. After the refined gentleness of Edens, SWR and Markbass, it was a wild animal waiting to be tamed. I tamed it and it was a thing of wonder. 200W of pure valve provides more power than most of us will ever need. Even with a full band I never used it up high, but it was good to know I had a big reserve in hand. Fabulous amp. Good luck with the sale

    Bought a Polytune tuner form James. Well packaged and swiftly delivered. A great guy to deal with.

    [quote name='LemonCello' timestamp='1325763628' post='1487167'] That seems like a great price for this as it must be quality. Looks in very good order too. Good luck, LC [/quote] Wow . This looks a quality piece, Unlike many Rick copies, this really does look like the real thing...............and at a quarter of the price. Good luck

    Bought an interesting instrument from flat eric. It was an easy going and absolutely straightforward transaction. Eric is a nice guy and we had a pleasant hour sharing common experiences. His researches into the world of Peter Cook are a fascinating contribution to the historical record of bass history. I would thoroughly recommend Eric on both counts. Thanks again !

    ON HOLD

    It'll be off to the bay.....well not just yet as I've had several offers of trades. A nice bass would be tempting, but cash would secure it.

    David was a great guy to deal with : clear, upfront and considerate. Bought an MBX cab which was packed with care and arrived very quickly. Very much appreciated.
  20. loweringthetone
    It'll be off to the Bay soon so I can catch the Christmas rush

    Bump for a classy rig (in my humble opinion).

    Thanks Nick, Errrm, ... showing my total ignorance of Fender neck widths I had to look this up. B is 1 5/8th inches at the nut Im told

    [quote name='deanbean502' timestamp='1323371783' post='1462714'] Would you split? [/quote] The whole thing is a bonzer rig together, but I guess if I had firm sales on both items......

    [quote name='borisbrain' timestamp='1323368004' post='1462620'] Hi there. Nice gear! Can you tell me... 1. Still available? 2. Power rating? 3. Interested in any Trace Elliot gear for trade? I have an early 90s pre-Gibson collection of TE gear in great condition. An AH200 Series 6 GP12 (very loud), two 1153 15" slimline cabs at 300W each, one 2103x slimline cab (2x10 plus 2x5), also 300W. Oh, and a dual SMX compressor pedal. Cheers, BB [/quote] Hi BB 1. Yes, still available, no firm takers as yet. 2. 300w I believe but Phil Jones (yes he himself) told me he's very conservative about power ratings. Personally I've heard this rig combination with a 7 piece band, brass section, full kit drummer, full PA etc - it was loud and as clear as a bell. 3. Love the idea...... if only i were younger, but Im downsizing rather than upsizing Im afraid. Thanks
