Great basses IMO, and I've owned two Eagles over the years.. Price wise, this is well worth the money because a new one would cost a lot, lot more and if you can find a vintage one of these second hand (and they're usually in The States), they're at least £1000 plus shipping & taxes.. The circuit design offers so much flexibility it's untrue and, as with my 1984 NJ series model, the necks on these are as good as anything else out there. Wish I could afford it myself but alas, that's just not possible right now.. Anyway, good luck with the sale!

Appreciate the support....

Thanks guys! Really appreciate the positive comments....

[quote name='Merton' post='541200' date='Jul 15 2009, 12:38 PM']Bargainous! And Nik is an absolute gent too. I've always hankered after one of these ever since owning an NA320 for a short while and stupidly selling it before I prperly got to grips with it. Hmmm. Stop it.[/quote] Thanks Mert! Much as you are one of BC's finest and I want to sell this amp asap, I think the key words in your post were 'stop it'! Now, repeat after me: "I am very happy with my existing rig", "I am very happy with my existing rig", "I am very happy with my existing rig" etc, etc.. Nik

[quote name='walbassist' post='541085' date='Jul 15 2009, 10:51 AM']My first "proper" rig was one of these cabs with a Triad and SWR Basic 350 amp. Awesome tone and build quality![/quote] Cheers Gareth! Never hear the my SWR cabs with an SWR head but they've sounded very good with Eden, Peavey and Gallien Krueger heads, which is a good sign I think...

Hi Folks I'm upgrading my rig so need to move on some of my equipment that has served me very well over the last year or so, starting with this [b]Eden Nemesis NA650[/b] head, which I'm asking [b]£300 + p&p[/b] for. I paid about £320 for the head last year and £20 for the SKB case IIRC, so I think the price I'm asking is reasonable given the current economic climate. I bought it last year here on Basschat and it's been [b]brilliant[/b] for the kind of gigs I do, which are pubs, clubs, weddings etc.. So much so, that I now intend to upgrade my rig to an Eden Metro. The [b]NA 650[/b] is very punchy and warm sounding, which might sound like a contradiction but it's not, and the [b]tonal flexibilit[/b]y is fantastic, as it is with all Eden amps. There's 3-band e.q, semi-parametric eq, a very good D.I, tube emulation circuit, compressor, fx loops, mute switch etc, etc.. You name it; it has it and does it!! Here's some photos, including a stock photo which shows the front & rear panels very clearly.. [attachment=28937:yhst_784...84137338.jpg] [attachment=28938:Jul_09_071.jpg] [attachment=28939:Jul_09_061.jpg] And it's nice and loud: 275 Watts @ 8 Ohms, 440 Watts @ 4 Ohms, 650 Watts @ 2 Ohms.. One of the great features of this amp IMO is that it will run down to 2 ohms, which means you don't always have to buy 8 ohm cabs!! Anyway, here's the blurb and spec: "The flagship of the Nemesis line. The NA650 is 2 spaces high and 17" wide by 11" deep. It features a unique preamp design and an all FET output stage with 650W RMS at 2 ohms. This unit has Enhance, Edge, and Gain boost controls; selectable DI pre/post, front-panel DI level control, as well as a smooth, solid FET sound with plenty of power to drive multiple speaker cabinets. Nemesis NA650 Bass Head Specifications: * Power: 650W RMS@ 2 ohms * Distortion: <.1% * Frequency Response: 10Hz - 18kHz * Headroom: 3dB * Dimensions: 17"W x 3-1/2"H x 11"D * Weight: 28 lbs. Nemesis NA650 Bass Head Features: * 650W RMS @ 2 ohms * Unique preamp design * FET output stage * Semi-parametric EQ with Enhance, Gain Boost, and Edge controls * Selectable pre/post DI with front-panel level control * Pre-EQ effects loop" [attachment=28940:Jul_09_074.jpg] [attachment=28941:Jul_09_077.jpg] [attachment=28942:Jul_09_075.jpg] There's some interesting user reviews and comments here: [url="http://www.eden-electronics.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12260"]http://www.eden-electronics.com/forum/topi...?TOPIC_ID=12260[/url] And it might be worth reading this recent Basschat thread about the NA650 [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=52284"]HERE[/url] which covers quite a bit of detail about these amps, including the [b]low-level hum[/b] that they produce which is an inherent design fault apparently. When I got mine, I had it [b]thoroughly serviced [/b]and checked over to see what was causing the hum, but my amp tech couldn't eliminate it. Having said all that, when you're using the amp in anger, you can't hear the hum at all! There's no reviews that I can find on Harmony Central for this amp but have a look at bassist Bill Clement here on YouTube, who uses the NA650 - the guy is amazing! [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SX_PFH--rXo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SX_PFH--rXo[/url] My reason for selling is simply to upgrade, hopefully to an all Eden rig as I said above, but otherwise, I'd be very happy to continue using this amp with my SWR cabs because it sounds bloody good! It's in pretty good condition and [b]works perfectly[/b], though the SKB case is a little tatty but perfectly functional! When I bought it originally, I had it couriered via APC which cost me [b]£15[/b] at the time and I would be happy to ship this in a similar fashion for anyone who is interested but not within easy reach of here..here being [b]Littlehampton[/b] in [b]West Sussex[/b] by the way. For anyone else who's interested and nearby, then you'd be [b]very welcome[/b] to come here, have a cuppa and a chat and [b]listen to it in action[/b]! Any questions, feel free to PM me or ask away here.. Thanks for looking. Nik [attachment=28943:Jul_09_066.jpg] [attachment=28944:Jul_09_062.jpg]

[b]Sold[/b] Hi Folks I'm upgrading my rig so need to move on some of my equipment that has served me very well over the last couple of years, starting with this mid 90's [b]SWR Goliath Junior II 210[/b] cab, which is for sale at [b]£150[/b] plus p&p. It seems that SWR really peaked as a company in the 90's and this cab is an excellent example of what they did very well back then..which was make great sounding bass gear! I bought this on Basschat about 2 years ago, then sold it on last year. But in typical Basschat fashion, recently bought it back again because I missed the sound it gave me when running it in conjunction with my SWR Triad.. Though it is excellent with the Triad, it's also a[b] great sounding cab in it's own right[/b] and because of the twin rear ports, it has an [b]excellent frequency range[/b] and handles the [b]low B [/b]on my 5 String basses very well!! [attachment=28924:Jul_09_0...ed_25065.jpg] [attachment=28925:Jul_09_0...ed_19932.jpg] Here's what the SWR website says about it: [i]"The first upgrade to our original 2x10, featuring a redesigned crossover, input panel and 10" driver, as well as upgraded construction techniques and materials. The Goliath Junior II was upgraded again in 1996 to the Goliath Junior III. Impedance: 4 ohms Power Handling Capacity: 250 Watts RMS Sensitivity: 103 dB SPL @ 1W1M Frequency Response: -6db @ 40Hz and 12kHz Production Period: 1990 to 1996 Final Retail Price: $649.00"[/i] And there's some very good [b]reviews[/b], first on BGRA [url="http://www.bgra.net/2004/review.php?id=86&type=cabinet"]HERE[/url] and also on Harmony Central [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Bass+Amp/product/SWR/Goliath+Jr+II+Cabinet/10/1"]HERE[/url]. It is in good condition cosmetically considering it's age, and in all other respects it is [b]working perfectly[/b]! It is quite heavy at [b]55lbs[/b] but because it's quite small and compact with good side handles, I can move this around quite easily. [attachment=28926:Jul_09_0...ed_23617.jpg] [attachment=28927:Jul_09_0...ed_12886.jpg] (By the way, the mark at the back of the cab is on the photo, not actually on the cab!!) My reason for selling is simply to upgrade, hopefully to an all Eden rig, but otherwise, I'd be very happy to continue using this cab because it sounds great! And 'great' to me means that it very faithfully reproduces the sound of your bass & amp, without any real colouration.. When I bought it originally, I had it couriered via APC which cost me [b]£25[/b] at the time and I would be happy to ship this in a similar fashion for anyone who is interested but not within easy reach of here..here being [b]Littlehampton[/b] in [b]West Sussex[/b] by the way. For anyone else who's interested and nearby, then you'd be [b]very welcom[/b]e to come here, have a cuppa and a chat and [b]listen to it in action![/b] Any questions, feel free to PM me or ask away here..

ON HOLD pending payment etc... Hi Folks I'm selling some items I don't use to get funds together to upgrade my rig, so here is my Yamaha Nathan East Parametric EQ pedal for sale at £45 inc p&p. Everything you need to know about it can be found on the Yamaha website [url="http://www.yamaha.com/guitars/products/productdetail.html?CNTID=60151&CTID="]HERE[/url] [attachment=28922:Jul_09_051.jpg] It is a very simple effect pedal to use but makes a big improvement to your sound without any hassle. There's some excellent reviews for it here on Harmony Central: [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Effects/product/Yamaha/NE-1+Nathan+East+Parametric+EQ/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...ametric+EQ/10/1[/url] It runs on 9v battery power only but I've had the same battery in this one for a while, so it's not too expensive in terms of new batteries.. This one is in very good condition, works perfectly and cosmetically is 9/10 I'd say.. and IMO, I think it looks very cool in a retro kind of way!! [attachment=28923:Jul_09_053.jpg] My reason for letting this go is that, even after selling it, I will still have an Aphex Bass Exciter (which has a slight fault so am not comfortable about selling it here on BC) and I'm upgrading my rig to an amp with almost endless tonal possibilities.. So i figure I can safely move this on now and hopefully, there'll be some interest here for it? Feel free to ask any questions here or via PM and thanks for looking.. Nik
