  1. Really reluctant sale of this bass, but I currently have four 5-string Jazz styles basses and I have my eye on a Musicman 5 so trying to raise some funds! This has one of the nicest 2 piece Swamp Ash bodies I have seen on a Sire - almost impossible to see the join unless you look at the end grain. Really excellent condition as can be seen on the pics. If there's any marks/dents I certainly can't find them! Only real sign of use is that the pick up cover was fitted at some point and has left some holes in the pick guard, but unfortunately I don't have the cover to fit back on. When I got the bass the preamp had some issues so I purchased a new one from Andertons and put that in. While I was at it I also fitted a decent Switchcraft socket as the Sire ones are a weak link I think. The bass also had a clear perspex ramp fitted between the pickups which is a nice Mod but easily removed if needed. Strings could probably do with a change but have some life left. Medium-low action at the moment. Ideally Pick up from Chelmsford, Essex, but I do have a box and will post at Buyers cost/risk. £375
  2. Damn I was too slow to see this - crazy cheap and your just down the road 😭
  3. I tried it out at an Audition last night - seriously impressed!! Can see this getting a lot of use! I'm not far from Ashdown HQ and they have been really helpful in the past, so will pop down with it in the New Year and see what info they can give me. Was just hoping someone eagle-eyed might know what the drivers were to satisfy my curiosity in the meantime 😁
  4. Hi All, I picked up what I believe is a prototype Ashdown OR210 cab. It didn't go into production as they went with with 110's instead. Hopefully ideal for my OriginAL 500 head as a small practice/gig rig. What I am trying to work out is what drivers are fitted to it. I took them out and the only markings are hand written labels that say HM 210 4B 8ohm. Does anyone have any idea what they might be? Thanks in advance!!
  5. Man that's lovely, and you're only down the road! However no funds at the moment unfortunately 😭
  6. I saw that and was really tempted! Be very interested to hear how you get on with it 👍
  7. Back on eBay with a £195 plus postage starting price.
  8. Would consider trading for an Ashdown RM112 cab, or possibly some FX...
  9. Still here! Have another bass incoming so could do it for £225 posted or £210 collected to make space?? Otherwise I'll pop it in a case and put it in the loft for the foreseeable.
  10. That's a great board thats ready to go for someone!
  11. Thanks for posting @JAUQO III-X. If they ever put this into production I'd buy one in a heartbeat! Big fan of Sire basses and I much prefer 34 inch scale, a lot of 6 strings are 35+.
  12. @JAUQO III-X what's the scale length??
  13. Still here! On eBay with opening bid of £235+p&p but can do £225 collected or £240 posted if anyone here wants it before it gets any bids!
  14. Met Stew at a services to sell my an amp - lovely guy, great comms - everything you'd expect from a basschat legend!
  15. Will consider trades. No cabs as am clearing space but will consider a bass, pedals etc
  16. Can't believe these are still here! Final price drop to £300. That's £150/cab including the Roqsolid covers - madness!
  17. Some more pics. Light/camera made them look a bit orange for some reason - they are much more red in real life (see original stage pic!)
  18. Picked this up on eBay today. Did I need another stack? Absolutely not! However I couldn't turn down the opportunity to try a original MK1 ABM 500w head and two 408 cabs. What a sound! Can't wait to try them out in a band situation!!
