    Sounds lovely, Andy. The amp’s ridiculously cheap now - someone’s going to get an absolute bargain. Good luck, mate. I hope your circumstances change for the better very soon.

    Lovely! GLWTS

    Andy, I don’t know about anyone else, but speaking for myself, I wonder why you don’t do the switch cleaner thing yourself and then be able to sell the head without any probs. I appreciate it’s not cheap stuff, but it would probably have saved you the need to drop the price by a third. GLWTS anyway. I missed out on your AD200B, dammit!

    Absolute bargain!

    Beautiful, Ash. Can’t imagine it’ll be here long, but GLWTS anyway.

    .Never been a fan of the look of a Mustang, but yours is really cool. GLWTS.

    Lovely! (and the Spector!) 🤣 GLWTS

    Can't believe no-one here has asked "how much does it weigh?"

    I've just completed a transaction with Dunc and it went really well. He's very easy to deal with and I would go so far as to say it was great fun. I was selling a Barefaced 1st-generation Compact and Dunc noticed that I'd planned to use the money to buy a new One10 to replace it, so he suggested a trade for his One10, which has saved me a great deal of dosh. I'm delighted with the little fella, which arrived brilliantly packaged, exactly as described and ready to rumble. The upshot is that I can highly recommend Dunc to any Basschatter out there, both for the transaction itself and for the overall experience - a joy throughout!

    I’ll do some research and get back to you by DM. Pete

    I have this listed on eBay at £300, so this price is only for BCers. These are awesome cabs: huge power-handling capability, yet incredibly light, thanks to the construction and clever design. It can be really loud if you want it, but it gives the same transparent delivery even at home-use volumes. I'm only getting rid of this one as I need something smaller - I could do with a bit more floor-space in my studio! I need hardly add that I'm planning to get another Barefaced, but this time a One10, so I'm not interested in trades - sorry. The covering on these cabs is very hard-wearing and cannot be torn like carpet or Tolex, so it looks really great. There are some tiny white marks which are almost impossible to catch on camera, and one nickel corner protector has a small ding (pictured). It's mostly seen home use, but it's been out for a few jams in the two years I've had it. Clearly, I would much prefer collection (from Mapperley in Nottingham) - you can play through it using my bass and head or bring your own - but (for a contribution to petrol) I'm willing to travel up to 50 miles from Nottingham to meet up if that's what you prefer. I could potentially courier it, but delivery would be at your own risk and cost. SPECS (nicked from Bass Direct site - the legacy Barefaced site is down for maintenance) WEIGHT 27 lbs / 12kg BROADBAND SENSITIVITY 100dB – similar to a good 2×12″ USABLE FREQUENCY RANGE 37Hz – 4kHz RECOMMENDED AMP POWER 150 – 600W RMS MAX CONTINUOUS BROADBAND SPL 127dB – similar to a high quality 2×12″ or 3×10″ cab NOMINAL IMPEDANCE 8 ohms DIMENSIONS 25.5″ high x 19.5″ wide x 13.5″ deep (64cm x 48cm x 34cm)

    Wouldn't change the rate though!

    €1200 comes to a smidgeon over £1000 (1007) - not £1350! You might want to re-edit your heading (or relist if that's not possible). Good luck!

    Belated recognition of some superb customer service by Mark, Ash and Marcus (they were all involved at one point or another): I bought an NS Design WAV4 Radius headless bass from them before Christmas, only for the preamp board to blow the first time I connected to my amp. BD not only arranged speedy delivery of a replacement board and paid for its fitting, but Mark also offered half price on a set of LaBella flats as a compensation for the faffing about. So far, so good, but I asked for a set of medium scale TIs instead (for another bass). The next day, a package arrived containing both the TIs and a set of long scale LaBella. My contribution was just £24.50 for two sets of premium quality flats. Now that's customer service! And, by the way, their prices consistently and significantly undercut those of Strings Direct!

    Definitely worth the wait. While I was waiting for your pix to come up, I was idly googling and could find only one picture - and that was a poor one of a Quadra Valve. These must be as rare as hens’ teeth. Probably a rude question, but do you have any idea of the combined weight of the head and case?
