RichTone Music in Sheffield sent me an email summary of their recently acquired used items up for sale, and I noticed this lovely Warwick NT5 from 2013: https://richtonemusic.co.uk/warwick-thumb-5-neck-thru-germany-natural-case-collection-only-2nd-hand/ I wanted to drop by the shop just to try it out, but then the very next day it sold! Man, that was fast! So... who bought it?! Anyone here on Basschat with a 'new' (for them) Warwick Thumb NT5? If it was you: How does it sound?

These have all been quad-matched (which is what I need for my amps), so I really wouldn't want to separate them into pairs. Sorry! If you don't mind using TAD or JJ matched pairs, HotRox has these in-stock for £100 - £120, respectively: https://www.hotroxuk.com/jj-valve-kt88.html If anyone is interested, I see that they also have TAD quads in-stock too... for less than what I'm asking for these Electro-harmonix valves.

@Ruairidh bought my Darkglass Alpha Omega pedal. He sent the payment instantly, communicated very well, and was a genuine pleasure to deal with. Enjoy the new pedal, thanks!

Yes, of course you're right. It was also not always as dark as the venue on Saturday.
-
Yeah, that is all situated at the back-left on the RBH cabs... exactly where I saw the glow.
-
Actually @AndyTravis, I think you might be right. I don't know the inner workings of these GK cabs, but just googling around a bit now folks mention light bulbs acting as a current limiting device in a lot of cab circuits (as simple fuses could just blow). I was reasonably sure that I had driven these really hard in the past, but perhaps I just never looked closely enough to notice the glow.

Hi All, So my new band just played our debut show on Saturday, and I took one of my GK 410 RBH cabs. These things handle 800 Watts 8 Ohms... We were up first at the show, I didn't notice anything unusual while I was playing through our set. Signal was going into the cab via the 1/4 socket rather than the SpeakOn. The bassists in the bands that came after us all used my cab, most of them with their own heads. I was around and helped connect things, and we were always using my speaker cable which is really high quality (nice Designacable one with Neutrik jacks). During the performance of the very last band, I noticed that something was glowing periodically in the upper left side of the rear of the cab. There was a white / yellowish glow that looked to me like it was coming from sparks. The glow was so bright, that it even shined through the paper on the speaker cones on the left of the cab. Everything continued to sound fine... performance went on and the cab never caught fire or anything. 😂 Has anyone seen this happen before? I'll have to pull out a speaker or two and see what is going on back there... I also wonder if using the 1/4" jack rather than the SpeakOn connector had something to do with it. I have two of these 410 cabs, have driven them really hard in the past, but never experienced any issues. BUT on all other occasions I was using the SpeakOn socket.

Darkglass Alpha Omega - £175 (including UK shipping) - *SOLD*

I have a total of 8 sets of surplus Electro-harmonix quad matched KT-88 valves up for sale (totally unused). Price is £250 / set and this includes shipping in the UK. Valves were quad matched by Hot Rox and purchased new from them in 2022. I just re-valved my two Strategies, and I'm keeping a couple of sets as spares... so these are available if someone needs them.

Chris bought my Mesa Subway WD-800 bass head. Great communication, instant payment, no issues. Thanks a lot and enjoy the bass head!

Another great pedal that I just don't use these days. Was purchased new from Anderton's during the pandemic so that I could play with myself while at home. Now that we're rehearsing regularly again, I'm either playing against recorded rehearsal tracks or playing live with my mates. Personally, I would have a difficult time using this pedal in any live performance situation. Price of £95 includes shipping to the UK. Original box included.

I'm selling this MXR Bass Compressor pedal, which I purchased used off of eBay a few years back. I no longer use compression when playing live (I now always play through a distortion pedal, and if I need compression for the studio it's either a plug-in or via my sound engineer's outboard), so this has just been sitting around unused! Price of £110 includes shipping. There is a patch of velcro on the bottom. I do not have the original box.

I'm selling this Darkglass Alpha Omega pedal that I bought new (original box included). It's a really great pedal, but is just a bit too metal for what I play and now is just sitting around un-used. After a pedal / tone 'shoot-out' session with our sound engineer, I've ultimately settled on using pedals like the Mesa Flux Drive and EHX Soul Food. Price of £175 includes the cost of shipping within the UK.
