  1. Both speakers are now available. A cracking 12" cab really. £200 each + carriage.
  2. These make a righteous noise!
  3. All the info I can provide is here http://basschat.co.uk/topic/198311-fs-gallien-krueger-mb200-amp-sold/page__hl__mb200__fromsearch__1 cos this is where I bought it. I wanted to try one and it is not for me. There is nothing wrong with it. Sorry, not open to offers. Thanks.
  4. Yes, it's one of the small and cute ones £160 inc. Need it you know you do.
  5. This, in a Boschma 2U rack. £920 delivered. Lush. More than likely sold, but I will confirm this by the weekend.
  6. I have doubled on lots of different amps. I use an fdeck preamp in front of whatever amp for the DB and that makes everything easy. I would love to try a dubster with my DB. That would be lush beyond!
  7. [quote name='Owencf' timestamp='1360014624' post='1963684'] Aberdeen, Scotland Yo Owen, i know dont need to drop alot to get Plonkin, but id rather spend what i can to get the best possible setup. though after the last Gear4Music incident i wouldnt touch them with a 20ft cattle prod. [/quote] Far be it from me to douse your GAS
  8. Gear4music bass. Will you need new strings? Yes. They come up here 2nd hand fairly regularly. Will it need the bridge filing down? Yes. A set of files will cost you about £6. Will it need the fingerboard planed true? Possibly - between £50-£100. Can you sell the case on ebay? Yes. I sold one for £120. Will it respond like one of the great Italian masters? No. Will it be fine and dandy for going "thud" or "Bdum-dum-dum-dum? Yes It would be cool to drop £2K (+++++++) on a bass, and there is every chance that you would love it, but you do not have to. If you feel later on that you want to upgrade then by all means do so and enjoy the process, but you do not have to spend 4 figures to get going.
  9. I used to do this with series 1 Mackie SRM450. I ran out of headroom too quickly. It was a different story when I added the Mackie actve sub, but the portability was lost then
  10. URGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! 5 day afer my birthdate. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

  12. [quote name='BigBeatNut' timestamp='1359585791' post='1957267'] Woah, that JC is gorgeous ... but unfortunately though heart says yes, head is saying 'don't be a silly b****r you'll never play it live'. Head is winning right now unfortunately. [/quote] The force is weak with this one. This is not the BC way.
  13. [quote name='barkin' timestamp='1358977489' post='1948113'] After the recent experiment with felt picks, my cyber-wanderings led me to [url="http://www.ukulele-plectrums.co.uk/"]http://www.ukulele-plectrums.co.uk/[/url] [/quote] I bought 10 for just under £12. They are lush!
  14. I picked up some leather picks from http://www.ukulele-plectrums.co.uk/leather-plectrum-bass-guitar-large-stiff-lilac-designer-x-10-p-162.html?zenid=e8lqt8cuu1ku3mid93i45ohc53 and they are everything I hoped the felt ones would be - lush! Pretty thick, as in 3 or 4mm, but all the directness of pick without the clank. Sometimes clank is good, sometimes it is nice to not have it.
  15. [quote name='swanbrook' timestamp='1359387874' post='1953959'] The first one is the mackie. Have it, use it, love it .... Sometimes ! [/quote] Mackie have announced cut down software to run on iPhones. GET IN!
  16. [quote name='ikay' timestamp='1359231424' post='1952035'] The Fodera Hollowbody caught my attention [attachment=126080:Fodera Hollowbody.jpg] [/quote] If I was paying the price of a small island for a bass I would want the body not to be made of two body blanks glued together. Ugh.
  17. [quote name='mrtcat' timestamp='1359485905' post='1955535'] I'd need a bigger van for more bergs [/quote] Don't burden us with your problems. We are looking to you for leadership in these tough times. Kick start the economy!
  18. [quote name='mckendrick' timestamp='1359478975' post='1955375'] An [i]un-[/i]stripped pre CBS....? [/quote] Nope. Maybe? No. Can I have one of each? I even have a set of mutes waiting for just the right moment. Sadly, this is not it. The first bass I ever really took in was a stripped Jazz and I struggle to not buy it every time I see one for sale. I have even done a spreadsheet to see if I could realise the capital for this one. It did not work
  19. Ah! The simple purity of a stripped pre CBS. Does it get any finer?
  20. [quote name='mrtcat' timestamp='1359461002' post='1954996'] Pm'd re SWR [/quote] NO NO NO NO NO NO. Buy ANOTHER big Berg as well! DO IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT for all of us
  21. Just Fender left. Bent metal plate 5 string bridge.
  22. [s]It turned out that the Badass V did not go so is here if anyone wants it.[/s] Fender also still here - call it £10 for the Fender
  23. Not to derail, but I am yet to try a duff set of TI strings. The Jazz Rounds are just lush - same kind of low tension vibe as the flats, but .....umm...... roundwound. I put a set of power bass strings on my Jazz last week and it all sounds louder and beefier than before. Almost like a little preamp has been put in. I realise that sounds ridiculous, but that is how it feels. I'm loving them.
