  1. A very easy and pleasant transaction with Chris in N.I. for my Fender bass, great communications, cheers Chris.
  2. Fan bought off EBay and fitted. I had to unsolder the old fan wires off as they had the right size clip lug for connection to the board. I finally got a reply from ‘Samson’ saying no parts available anymore because it’s a discontinued model. Thanks for the heads up Steve.
  3. Marvelous choice Bean9seventy.......‘‘twas my good self on bass herein. The band members all survive to this day I’m very happy to add! We were into Chick Corea’s Return to Forever with Stan the Man on bass who had already started putting out his solo vinyl stuff.....
  4. I heard of his name too many years ago. A good job he sorted himself out after 1971 but not so good where it says he helped Ms Streisand write a hit song but he never received recognition, or royalties! Beware fellow bass players.
  5. Both my LMB 3 amps take only a few seconds to ‘clear the pathway of sound’ before allowing the signal clearly through. You may have some other issues going on if you have ten seconds before the signal is clean and you reckon that possibly ambient air temps are appearing to affect. Check your cables too though, maybe just maybe one cable has a connection issue, maybe try the amp through another speaker if possible. If that works fine then maybe the cabinet has an ‘loose’ internal connection.
  6. Brill, thanks Steve, I couldn't find it when I looked on Ebay! I'm pretty certain it is that make too but I will double check. Cheers
  7. thanks Norris, I've asked Real Electronics who service Markbass amongst other manufacturers and Im still waiting for a reply from Hal Leonard/Hartke/Samson on getting one. Spare parts, drive me mad! cheers.
  8. Norris...can you get Samson parts then? I'll have to take it apart to do that, all those damned screws!
  9. On the fan it has ........Mode rdh 8025s. 12v the amp is a SAMSON XML610. 600WATTS.
  10. Would anybody know where I can get PA/amp fan from? The band have a Samson PA amp that is distributed or owned by Hartke, who are distributed in the UK by Hal Leonard (publishing!).....hence, I’m getting nowhere trying to replace a noisy amp fan that starts up when power is switched on, runs for a few minutes then stops working. I have another fan on order from Real Electronics ( for MarkBass) but they don’t seem to know if they can get one for the Samson.
  11. You can sometimes overcome this problem at a gig by loosening each string, one by one, pulling and plucking it several times, retune it then do the others and that can 're-brighten' it enough to get by.
  12. Top marks to top man Topo Morto for getting a Hipshot Bridge to me in record time, even with the UK snow bound. Cheers Topo!
  13. 🤔 hmmmm......sadly not Ben!
  14. I'm looking at selling only people as I don't need another bass at this point. Many thanks for the trade offers though.
  15. It nearly was up last year but I gave it another few months thinking.......the lesson is, don’t think, buy and sell! Cheers Skitzigol.
  16. SOLD Price is now £750 I bought this new a few years ago and tried it for a couple of gigs. It has a tiny mark on the back upper of the top horn. It has since had some recording at home but it seems this scale length isn't for me so it is up for sale. Its the Jazz version Aerodyne with that nice sculptured top in quite a stunning Gun Metal Blue with binding. The neck is very nice to play, well shaped. The fingerboard came with a black laquer on it! I've had that off to reveal the lovely grain that was hidden underneath and refretted with lower profile frets. The neck pocket has a thin shim under it. The second volume pot is now a blend/pan pot which I find much easier to use than two separate blends and it works very well. The Fender case that came with it is included. Any courier/posting can be sorted. I have taken the neck off basses before to courier or I may have an old solid case to use instead of the soft bag. You are welcome to visit and try the bass out in NE Hampshire. might put her up on Ebay real soon..... Thanks for the trade offers people but I'm looking for a straight sale.
  17. Sorry people, I must somehow have TWO posts up and I do not know how that has happened! The ‘other’ post def has Sold on it so I’ll sort this one. Posted using my iPad but I just don’t seem to have the hang of this updated website.
  18. Sold...thanks for asking though..
