Richard Jinman

Thanks very much ... you learn something every day and today it's 'what is a solo bass?'

Can I ask a question please? What exactly is a soloist bass? I presume it's a DB optimised for a certain kind of playing - solos presumably - but haven't found a coherent explanation online. Is it somehow less suitable for bread-and-butter walking lines for eg? Thanks

Looks incredible… ah, if only

Please see ad in Double Bass and EUBs for sale

I’ve got hold of a new AI Clarus and Doubleshot so putting these two up for sale. The Focus comes with the original AI padded bag (and even a manual!). I’ve pasted a page from the AI site with the specs. Amp is working flawlessly and sounds great with the (much younger) Upshot… a small gig/rehearsal set up that fits in a backpack. I’ll include a speakon cable and (obviously) the amp power lead. Postage at buyer’s expense, thanks.

No problem

I’ll take this for when I inevitably lose mine. Richard Jinman The Old School, Babcary, Somerset TA11 7DT. can you let me know total pls and I’ll send the cash. Cheers R

I bought this on here and have gigged it lightly. I'm sure everyone on this forum knows exactly what it is and what it does. Extremely reliable pup which reproduced the sound of my bass admirably. There is a little discolouration of the copper plate on one side (see pix) but no effect on performance. Postage should be about a fiver I'd imagine. Thanks for looking.

Hi Dan, I’ve PM’d you

I've also listed this in the DB/EUB section so hope that's OK. Fantastic cab for DB in particular. Compact and reasonably light. I bought it with the EA Doubler also listed here, but have got hold of an AI Doubleshot that I'm going to use with my Clarus ... so suddenly I've got a surfeit of excellent DB amplification. Details of the cab are here: Model: Acme Low B-1 Series II Frequency response: +/-3 dB 41Hz to 22 kHz -6 dB at 31 Hz Power Handling:175 Watts RMS continuous, 150 Watts sine wave @ 30.87 Hz Sensitivity: 90 dB 1W/1M Impedance: 4 ohms Dimensions: 15.75″H x 15.75″W x 13.5″D Weight: 31lbs/14.1kg Happy to post at buyer's expense. Any questions please ask, thanks

I've also listed this in the DB/EUB section so hope that's OK. Bought on here a few months back, but I've got hold of a doubleshot to go with my AI clarus so I suddenly have a surfeit of fine DB amplification. The amp is in fine condition and everything works as it should. Kettle lead included of course, but no original packaging. Happy to post at buyer's cost. You can read a user review here: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/euphonic-audio-doubler-ii.1288121/. Short version: EA's trademark 'transparent' sound optimised for DB and electric bass. Plenty of EQ options. £300. Any questions please ask, thanks.

Bought this on here with a lovely EA Doubler amp, but have subsequently got hold of a doubleshot to go with my AI Clarus. Fantastic sounding cab for acoustic bass in particular. Details here: Model: Acme Low B-1 Series II Frequency response: +/-3 dB 41Hz to 22 kHz -6 dB at 31 Hz Power Handling:175 Watts RMS continuous, 150 Watts sine wave @ 30.87 Hz Sensitivity: 90 dB 1W/1M Impedance: 4 ohms Dimensions: 15.75″H x 15.75″W x 13.5″D Weight: 31lbs/14.1kg Happy to post at buyer's expense and if you want the amp and the cab, I'm sure we can work out a deal. Thanks.

I bought this a few months ago on here to amplify my double bass. It's sensational - EA's trademark transparent sound with plenty of EQ options - but a week ago I was offered an Acoustic Image Doubleshot and I've decided to pair that with my AI Clarus for DB amplification. As a result this - and the Acme Low B series II cab I bought with it - are up for sale. I believe (as far as I can tell from reading descriptions online) this is the series 2 version of the Doubler. I'm sure most people here know exactly what it is - great, transparent sound for DB and electric bass. There's a review by a Talk Bass user here: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/euphonic-audio-doubler-ii.1288121/ The amp is in fine condition and everything works as it should. Comes with a kettle lead of course, but I don't have the original packaging. Happy to post at buyer's expense, thanks.

Bass looks great, but I really want your reel-to-reel and record collection. Bit of old school audio heaven there.

Thanks Dan… I’ll run that past the luthier at Bristol violin shop and see if he can decipher it.

Thanks… much appreciated. No rush
