B-U-M-P! £55 inc postage, anyone??

[quote name='Sercet' post='459660' date='Apr 10 2009, 10:24 PM']I often see people on this forum selling basses because their wife/girlfriend impose a one in one out rule and others who would like to buy a bass but can't, again because of the wife/girlfriend. Well, my wife has stopped me selling this - she's always liked the look of it (she doesn't play), and when she found out it was made in August '89 (the month/year we got married) she put her foot down. I was going to use the funds raised to but a new EUB...which she insists I go ahead and buy. It's effectively her bass now. Apologies to those who came close to buying it (You should buy Beedster's Wal instead). Steve[/quote] Good decision, if I might say so....

That's a very good price for a Wal, even in this climate! Good luck with it Chris

Now Sold - thanks for the interest!

B-U-M-P!

[quote name='molan' post='456643' date='Apr 7 2009, 06:06 PM']Some interest but nothing concrete so this is still available [/quote] I can't believe this is still here??? I'm not a 6 string player, but this is really something special for the money... Good luck with the sale!

SOLD pendingthe usual..

B-U-M-P!

Had a couple of PMs regarding the measurements, so these are the external measurements of the case: 49cm x 20cm x 51 cm or 19.5" x 8" x 20.25"

[quote name='Beedster' post='455193' date='Apr 6 2009, 10:06 AM']I sooooo miss that baby and would have it back had I not taken the decision a year ago that I would bever use FX again. Yes, the compressor is overkill, but it is such glorious overkill! The funk sounds that I could get out of this unit were incredible making it more of a bass synth than an FX unit. Bootsy eat ya heart out This is a stupid price (I think less than you paid me Nik and that was a stupid price), and it's a very rare piece of kit so well worth a speculative punt. Chris PS goes without saying that Nik is an awesome guy to deal with[/quote] Thanks for the kind words Chris! Yes, 'more of a bass synth' sums it up well and it does give a good Bootsy/P-Funk impression! It's a very versatile piece of kit for not too much money as you say... Hope all's well with you; how are you getting along with that lovely fretless Wal by the way? Nik

Hi Folks, I bought this [b]Nomad Bassman[/b] 19" 1U FX unit from the Beedster last year in the hope of rekindling my love/hate relationship with all things bass from the 80s, but sadly it wasn't meant to be!! The Nomad seems to be quite a rare piece of kit and I've looked around on Ebay and Harmony Central amongst other places for more info on the company or the unit itself, but I just can't find a thing about either. Here's some pictures of it in my rack unit which is also for sale [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=45755"]HERE[/url], though obviously, the amp is not for sale: [attachment=23325:March_09_003.jpg] [attachment=23326:March_09_014.jpg] [attachment=23328:March_09_012.jpg] It's pretty versatile, with an excellent Chorus sound, pretty good Octaver, an okay Flanger and a very good Compressor, though it's not subtle! The effects can be used independently or in any combination of the four. Soundwise, using all 4 effects together is just a bit too processed sounding for me, but using the Compressor and the Octaver together can give you some great [b]P-Funk[/b] sounds! Anyway, I'm looking for around [b]£45 + p&p[/b]. Am happy to post or it can be collected and tried out first for anyone who's nearby.. Thanks for looking and, any questions, please just ask! Nik

[b]SOLD! [/b] Hi Folks Just bought a 2U rackcase for my Eden head, so this [b]4U rackcase[/b] is no longer needed so I thought I'd offer it for sale here for [b]£20 + p&p[/b]. It's in relatively good condition and all the clips work fine and it's built like the proverbial brick!! Here are some pics: And here's a photo of it with my amp in it (which obviously, is not for sale): [attachment=23324:March_09_003.jpg] Am happy to post it, though I'm not sure what that'd be, but my guess is around [b]£5-6[/b]. Collection is fine too of course, though then you'd have to listen to me waffle on about basses and be forced to have tea & biscuits! Thanks for looking, Nik

[b]**** NOW SOLD ****[/b] Hi Folks, I bought this [b]VT1-Purist Bass[/b] pedal of ahpook a couple of months ago for [b]£65[/b] (inc delivery) to add some valvey goodness and warmth to my Eden Nemesis driven sound, but I'm just not using it. I tried it at a couple of gigs and it really does make the sound warmer and richer, with some of those 'overtones' that you can only get from a valve, but the band prefer the sound I get without it, though that's more of a reflection on the kind of band we are and the music we play than the pedal I think. Here's some links to the [b]DHA website[/b] and the DHA thread on Basschat which have more info about DHA products etc, though I don't think Dave makes this particular model anymore. Nevertheless, his site and the thread give the background on what his equipment is all about in terms of quality, sounds etc: [url="http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/Index.html"]http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/Index.html[/url] [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showforum=42"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showforum=42[/url] Here's a picture of the Pedal that ahpook took, so I hope he doesn't mind me using it: [attachment=23316:vt1purist.JPG] Anyway, the bottom line is there's no point keeping it if I'm not using it, so I thought I'd offer it up here for about [b]£60 inc delivery[/b] and see if anyone's interested. Not looking for any trades in particular but have been told an Aphex Bass Exciter would be good to use with my Roscoe Beck V string, so that could be interesting?? Thanks for looking, Nik
