  16. Quilter Bassliner 2x10W & cover Purchased last year from our one and only TheGreek on BC , in excellent condition, have used exclusively with a Quilter Bassblock 800 (which fits in the rear recess) in a smoke free studio & rehearsal room (never gigged) These don't come up very often so I was very lucky to land it for this project, I and my band have been delighted, especially the portability! It is a great sounding cab with high quality components and build, you will not be disappointed…check out reviews Only trade : Wilcock short scale or Serek cash your way…collection please Quilters description The modern bass player demands full range audio response. Meet the Bassliner 2x10w, a 2-way wedge-style cabinet with dual 10" Eminence Deltalite II neodymium drivers, paired with a BGH25 horn with crossover voiced for sparkle without harshness. Drivers are front-mounted behind an aluminum grille, in a one-piece pro-audio cabinet built with specially sourced light-core plywood, to cut every ounce of weight without sacrificing power or tone. The dual 10-inch speakers emphasize mid-bass punch without losing low end response. The rear mounted BassDock accepts the mighty Quilter Bass Block, which can drive one or two cabinets to full power. Even with head installed, weight is under 34 lbs (15.5kg) for easy portability. Wedge "tops" can be stacked on ported "bottoms" for a neat-looking and potent stage rig. Includes nylon dust cover with pouch. SPECIFICATIONS Sealed Wedge Drivers 2 x Eminence Deltalite 2510 Horn Eminence BGH25-8 Power Handling 450 Watts @ 8 Ohms Weight 30 Pounds (13.6Kg) Dimensions H13.5", W24", D13.5" Dimensions Metric H34.3cm, W61cm, D34.3cm Manual https://www.quilterlabs.com/manuals/49/quilter-bassliner-manual.pdf https://www.quilterlabs.com/index.php/product/bassliner-2x10w
  17. I have been using the WJ pre amp for 2 months, after trying 5 other brands inc Avalon 5 (which is very heavy & limited/to subtle). It is amazing…sound, set up..rich accurate & dynamic response ….NO going back I have use in pop, rock & acoustic band’s …with passive, active & acoustic basses You wont regret grabbing a unique & rare bass rig
  18. Mike introduce me to these basses a few years ago…I purchased the 4 string fretted (slim) The design, quality, ergonomics, playability & wide acoustic sound is amazing. The amount of work and detail makes this an expensive build, so you are getting a bargain and from a great guy who know his stuff I have been using this in a pop band, acoustic duo & new 4 piece acoustic …all need different sounds from rich piano string to double bass I have also a 6 string electric/acoustic in Rocklite You won’t regret buying this unique and rare bass…B
  19. I agree that you should try and invest what you can on a high quality IEM. Some great recommendations above. I would like to share my IEM journey which started with 64 Audio A12’s which were a huge investment. But the price is forgotten because the sound quality and separation is astonishing even at low volume and we are now hooked. So we started looking for low cost spares for emergencies I purchased Weststone AM pro 30 which are excellent and a great place to start your IEM journey…they need more eq adjustment because they cannot seal as moulded. But great value for money…check out reviews…I also like using them for long period listening as they have an ambient sound valve (this is my description)which lets more outside into the mix when you play quietly or stop. They are very comfortable. https://www.bassgearmag.com/westone-am-pro-30-in-ear-monitors/
