Midweek BUMP ! Happy to listen to offers on this Folks..

Thanks Folks

Great advert for a great cab, and GLWTS! That Hayman is absolutely stunning BTW

Thanks.. Still can't believe you haven't been able to shift your Peavey T20. Good luck with that.

[quote name='Adee' timestamp='1447763511' post='2910068'] Its a mighty fine and rare machine, especially if you want something a little different ! [/quote] +1

Tuesday morning BUMP ! Thought I might have had an enquiry or two about this cab, but nothing so far.. No love out there for a high quality 212 like this, or is just that the market is rather crowded at the moment?

This bass was mine for three months and whilst I had it, it reminded me of an Alembic Rogue I played once.. Not tonally of course, but in terms of the way it played; the build quality, the feel of that gorgeous 2-octave through neck and ebony fretboard and it's beautiful maple body. The other brilliant feature is the P/J pick up configuration with the Piezo - absolutely fantastic versatility in that design. If money was no object, I'd have kept this bass, stored it safely and kept it for those once or twice a year occasions when I gig with a band I'm in that plays Steely Dan covers. Sorry its not for you Tim, but this bass is definitely 'The bass' for someone here in Basschat! Nik

Thanks for the kind words, Rich! Yes, it's a heavy cab, but it does sound fantastic! Steve - I'll let you know..

[quote name='silverfoxnik' timestamp='1446395772' post='2899049'] Crazy price for such a quality instrument!! The J/MM/J pick up configuration is unusual too, which must yield a huge array of tones.. Cool '70s J bass looks - what's not to like? Surely someone will take it off your hands at this price.. GLWTS [/quote] Actually having to quote myself because I still can't believe this is here at this price...

Nice Don't see too many of these Fernandes 'copies' around, though to use that word is to massively undervalue them. They're really well made basses and can more hold their own against the original versions. GLWTS

Thanks Steve... I'll find a courier that uses wormholes, or something similar...

[b]SOLD[/b] Hi Folks After having owned this cab for 8 years or so, I've decided to put it up for sale for [b]SOLD[/b]. plus p&p. I bought it on here from Lee-Man in 2007 and have probably done about a 200-300 gigs and countless rehearsals with it in that time, and it's been great! However, much as I love the sound of these cabs, I have two reasons for selling it; (i) I've got too many cabs anyway, and (ii) I've got two of these cabs, having bought another one recently.. [b]Condition, photos[/b] In terms of condition, it's not too bad but it is a little but rough around the edges to be honest.. When I get time during daylight hours, I'll try and get some more detailed pictures taken and uploaded.. But for now, here it is pictured at the South Eat Bass Bash a couple of years ago: [attachment=205127:IMG_2733.jpg] The cross-shaped black gaffa tape that's across the front of it can be removed quite easily, but I put it on there to stop the speaker grill from vibrating which it did at certain frequencies. Not the most elegant of fixes, but it worked. [b]Sound[/b] Sound-wise, if you look on the internet, the jury's out about full-range bass cabs but for me, I've found the Triad to be a very versatile cab, capable of delivering fantastic lows with quite an articulate mid-range and a sweet top end. I remember Alex Claber A/B-ing his prototype Super 12T against this cab at one of the Bashes about 4 or 5 years ago, and although the Super 12T was capable of taking more power (and it's a lot lighter obviously), the sound of the two cabs side by side was actually quite similar - something Alex commented on at the time.. Here's a review posted on Musician's Friend some years ago: [i][color=#333333][font=Arial, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]"I've been gigging with the SWR Triad cabinet for exactly 10 years this month. It's been through all sorts of music to include acoustic world type music to heavy progressive. This is the clearest sounding cabinet I have ever heard. You will hear every nuance across the frequency spectrum."[/size][/font][/color][/i] ([url="http://www.musiciansfriend.com/amplifiers-effects/swr-triad-3-way-bass-speaker-system"]http://www.musicians...-speaker-system[/url]) [b]Weight [/b] The Triad is not light; it weighs in at approx. 82lbs, so it's not the lightest cab that's ever been built... but because it has really strong handles on the side of it, I found that with a bit of practice and either a decent trolley or castors, it's been manageable for me. [b]Trades, shipping etc[/b] Just to clarify that I'm not looking for any trades on this thanks. Viewings welcome if you'd like to hear it first and I m happy to ship it at your expense.. Any questions, please ask here or PM me.. Thanks for looking! Nik

SOLD pending the usual Hi Folks Further changes in my gigging requirements means that I now have the following cab for sale at £350 plus p&p [b]Genz Benz NX2 212-T Neo 600 watts 4ohm Cab[/b] [attachment=205114:cab-main.jpg] I bought this in August from Hamfist (Alan) and I hope he doesn't mind if I use a few of his excellent photos and a few quotes from his advert for the cab.. [b]Reason for selling etc.. [/b] It is a fantastic sounding cab that sounds good with my solid state Hughes & Kettner amp, my recently acquired Ampeg valve head and also with my Tech 21 Landmark 300 head. But because I'm going to be almost exclusively using an Ampeg rig with 1x15 and 210 from now on, and I have other cabs as well (including two 1x12 cabs and an SWR Triad), I just can't envisage when I'm going to get around to using this one - hence why I'm putting it up for sale. One of the reasons I bought it was because I heard it was pretty much bomb-proof, and that's been my take on it so far - it can handle pretty much whatever you throw at it and it sounds great for pure bass tone but also with effects, like octave pedals, auto-wah, distortion etc.. Also, I bought it because it's lightweight at 47lbs and very easy to move around.. I also like the fact that it's quite a tall cab, so you can hear yourself more easily.. [b]Photos, condition.. [/b] [attachment=205110:cab-front.jpg] [attachment=205111:cab-rear.jpg] The cab is in pretty much the same condition as when I bought it, having been used only a handful of time; I think I've done about 4 rehearsals with it and one gig.. So to quote Alan, it's in... [i]"Excellent condition. Absolutely no rips or tears in the tolex. The plastic corners and the bottom have a few minor scuffs, simply not noticeable in use."[/i] [b]Spec, reviews etc[/b] Full spec can be found here: - [url="http://www.genzbenz.com/?fa=detail&mid=2909&sid=725&cid=96"]http://www.genzbenz....&sid=725&cid=96[/url] Ed 'The Bass Whisperer' Friedland's very good review of the cab is worth a look at: [url="https://youtu.be/5BrLRqcXZ5g"]https://youtu.be/5BrLRqcXZ5g[/url] And there's some useful discussion (see quote below) on these cabs here on Talkbass: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/threads/genz-benz-nx2-212t.929725/"]http://www.talkbass....x2-212t.929725/[/url] [i]"..Amazing cabinet. I borrowed it from a good friend for two big gigs. I had the opportunity to use it on a rather large stage with a Streamliner 900. You wouldn't believe the volume and tone this thing has for such a small light box. The next day used the cabinet with an Ampeg SVT 3 head and it was even more amazing. The gig was outdoors with a rock band and volume wasn't an issue. Nice tight bottom end. I use a 1976 P Bass with La Bella Flat Wounds. The cabinet was able to produce a nice vintage tone. I'm also getting older and weight is a big issue for me. At 47 lbs, your back will be thanking you at the end of the night. I have luggage that weighs more than this when I go to Thailand every summer. Definitely going to pick one up soon. They're not cheap but well worth it."[/i] [b]Shipping, trades etc[/b] I would rather sell this but I think I could maybe be tempted by a P-style bass, so if you have something like that, try me? Worst I could do is say no. Obviously, I'd prefer this was collected, but I'm happy to courier it if you're too far away to come and collect. But, I won't ship unless you're prepared to pay the additional £10 or so that it usually costs to insure these items up to the right value. And if you are reasonably local and would like to come and try it out, then please PM me to arrange.. If you've any more questions, please ask away here or send me a PM. Thanks for looking Nik
