  1. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186347875698?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=I6kQUce0SWq&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=6OLDX2XvQou&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  2. I wouldn’t contemplate trying to hack into something I could use live, but for practice it’s ideal. Excited to have time again tonight to practice.
  3. Significant step up, sound quality is much better, tuner on the device and there is an octaver (2 even) Clean sound is great. Fx’s are good enough for when I practice and as above there are octavers. I won’t have to break out any of my pedals for practice now.
  4. I’m hoping it’s better than the Nux, mine has dispatched and will be with me tomorrow. Even got a bass with me to test it.
  5. Open to offers, not using this currently. Trades always of interest
  6. I couldn’t decide what to keep so I’ve listed my 3 not main basses and will let the market decide. For this crowd
  7. Since I picked up another Rickenbacker to travel with this is back up for sale. Only thing I’m after in trade is @Clarky‘s 73 Ric 4000 😅 Walnut thru and thru with their awesome B90 pickup and a dummy coil under the pickguard, push/pull on the tone know to activate it. Bought from Si Poulton earlier this year and I’ve barely had chance to play it since. This is an incredible bass, the lightest I own, the best sounding I own and the most versatile, just an absolutely stunning instrument. Currently strung with La Bella rounds, will come with a spare set of those and a set of Dunlop flats. Has the older Levy’s Serek branded case. I can add a Gruvgear Kapsule or Kapsulite if you want something more substantial (for an additional fee)
  8. PRICED AT £950 £800 without gigbag (because I don’t think anyone reads all of a post) Else price is £950 with a Gruvgear Kapsulite 2 of 3 to be listed Going to keep the 1 that is left Great condition Mexican made Fender Pawn Shop mustang, absolute monster output on it. Can be heard here: Comes with a Gruv Gear Kapsulite case, open to offers without the case to reduce the price but without it I don’t have a way to ship it comfortably Strung with d’addario chromes and a nice low action, fitted with Schaller strap locks.
  9. 1 of 3 basses that are listed and I’ll keep the last 1 to sell. Bought recently to be my travel bass (a more simplified ric) but due to the long waiting times on a Gruv Gear Kapsule I’ve reconsidered and am just thinking of continuing to travel with the either my Mustang or Serek and the Kapsule I already have that fits them (they will both be listed in the next few weeks). Rickenbacker 1973 (March) in Jet Glory. Rare model with single pick up which was first famously first used in the UK by John Entwistle in the 60’s. No frills design, fantastic player. Dual truss rods work perfectly and the action is set low. This is one punchy bass with all the Rickenbacker bass growl. The Jetglo finish is ageing well, slight crazing appearing, some marks to the body and rash to the rear. Good condition (for a 50 year old bass) with some buckle rash on the back. When I got it was missing the screws for the string mute, but on these older models these are interchangeable with the strap pins. So they’ve been moved to the bridge and I’ve added some Schaller straplocks as the strap pins. I’ve restrung it with D’addario chromes Weight from the shop listing is 8lb 7oz and it will come with a Mono Sleeve in Grey (not the non ric case shown that I decided not to take when I bought it)
  10. I cancelled my order with gear4music as I had a Gruv Gear Kapsule I’m not going to bother with now holding up the order. Re-ordered the last one on Amazon and should be here Tuesday.
  11. Good condition with the wrong side of velcro (fuzzy) stuck to the bottom. No box. I’m open to trades on other tuners that take a battery so I can just throw it on the floor, cash either way.
  12. Good condition with box, missing the top of one of the knobs but still have the battery compartment. Price is firm but includes shipping.

  13. Well I bought it so you have that proof. Sadly got lost in the post but that was my fault for not going to collect it from the sorting office in a timely fashion.
  14. Worst case just get a small male to female 1/4 patch cable and run it a bit away from the bass. https://www.amazon.co.uk/PNGKNYOCN-Extension-Amplifiers-Instruments-Microphone(55cm)/dp/B09BHH8DP7/ref=sr_1_10?crid=2LHKLGTEWV74M&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.qDCo5pMz2kG5dNhVXdHqLkUrCSw1ZZU4wFIyjJqvdfIhpwgS_PTJXIMFFcsVLSL9Fo9fmXWMphjUS4oOcdB6YMNiNUSWF0GlHAXOPSoFjXDNInA_g6hl7yYUYtX1fsN5ivzA17-o3k4URPLSIO64f3oJYAq8vm6edTlSA5mH3IIrgGA2Mc4t8CBRX8cCZWK_xBhfHuA4U1Ryt_Om6kxjMCA4GJTkGMUiFXsqVNiP1ko.NL7k5uyoxaUGw0OJ1NFhMydqBFRnSOEXd9jnNbePqeE&dib_tag=se&keywords=1%2F4inch+male+female&qid=1713900163&sprefix=1%2F4inch+male+female%2Caps%2C131&sr=8-10
  15. It’s got USB C and easier to use foot buttons, as long as it doesn’t sound worse 😅 I’m good
  16. I’m leaning the 70CDR+ just rather have the weird fx over the amp sims. But it’s all a great set of improvements over the older model (of which I have 3 😅)
  17. As far as I know it’s the p1 in a pedal format. So it’s ok, better than the p2 that has no bass fx what so ever. Don’t think it has any octave or synth sounds. I gave up on Mooer with the discrepancies between products, utter lack of documentation or response to any questions. Zoom ms70cdr+ is at the forefront of my small multi wants currently. Once my Katana Go arrives I doubt I’ll look at anything mooer or nux have on offer ever again.
  18. Gear4music but I ordered it with a gruv gear kapsule that shows delivery at some point in April. I’m in Casablanca for most of April so it’ll arrive when it arrives 🤷🏻‍♂️ Probably be out of stock as soon as my kapsule is in stock 😅
  19. I ordered one but won’t have it until May, everything I’m reading says it much better than the NUX
  20. Olympic is the fender tone stack for those wondering the main differences. This is a b15 in a box.
  21. Thing is it’s 33 1/3 so it’s not even an inch off standard. But what is different is how the neck connects to the body and where this put the upper horn. I’m fine and comfortable switching basses, there was a time when I was gigging in 1 band one night with a 36inch scale overwater, next the ric and then another band on an old 30inch hofner solid body. For me my 4003 has massive sentimental value (Dad bought it for me when I was 15) so eventually it became my main bass, then what I’ve found is my recent gas streak is because I’ve not been playing it, but I can’t drag it all over the world. So I tried loads of alternatives but I’m just bouncing from bass to bass, then every time I play the Ric I feel at home and at peace. The Acinonyx is nice but I don’t like more unfinished satin necks on any bass., I don’t think to much of my love of the ric as a love of the sound, more the feel, the mute It was suggested to me to get a shortscale ric, but it wouldn’t feel the same and soundwise its kinda what Serek are going for. But that does look lovely. We’ll see, few months with a bigger bass might be heaven or really frustrating.
  22. There is a good chance that the Serek will stay, I just want to travel with the Ric for a bit so it doesn’t feel like such a relief to come back home 😅and what you’ve said about feeling like home is exactly how it’s been the past 2 years. Also with some really dead flats and the mute up high, nothing else sounds like it. I bought a 1973 4000 to mimic my 2000’s 4003. Figured it was simpler, less to go wrong and would still be worth what I paid unless an airline snap the neck off it 😂 For anyone interested in the Pawn Shop, I’m out of the UK till June but could come through in April or May to facilitate a sale.
  23. Well I think I’m jumping back on the long (normal?) scale train after deciding I just feel so at home on a Rickenbacker. Will likely be listing my Pawn Shop Mustang in the near future, undecided on my Serek, Hofner will stay because nothing does the hofner vibe like a hofner. Then that would take me down to 3 basses…….. .finally Then I’ll have a bunch of high end guitar cases to sell 😅
  24. Next up on the chopping block, pretty rare (certainly in the UK) Groove Tube Ditto DI Box. I bought this a few years ago after a long long hunt after hearing about Lee Sklar using one in the 2000’s (think I lusted after one for 15 years?) I did a bit of recording with it, sold it as I went travelling, bought it back, bought a second one in the states, did a bit more recording with it, . I’ve done a shootout with it and near every other DI on the planet, it’s up there with the Reddi and the Khan, better than the Neve or Acme but as I travel so much it’s just wasted on me. Comes with an SKB case (as pictured) with fitted pick n pluck foam Huge transformers, easy to swap tubes, sounds great pushing a nice preamp like my Cranborne Audio Camden. Listing as part of my bit clear out, will not be sad if no one is interested 😅 I’ll just bring the other back from the US and run both on my 4003 with a ric-o-sound cable 😈.
