    [Feeler] Matamp 212 Bass Cab

    Its This one:

    [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=106325&hl=matamp&st=20"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...atamp&st=20[/url]

    [b]I paid £280 before postage (I spent ALOT on postage because I needed saturday delivery)

    so i'd like that back - you can collect from Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire or Leytonstone, East London.

    You're welcome to arrange a courier at your own expense, but im not the greatest for availability due to work and band constraints.
    [/b]

    My Situation is this:

    I practice in a squat in Leytonstone (east London), up a very narrow flight of stairs. I'm sure most bass players dont have to deal with this sh*t just to have a practice, but in the past i've regularly carried cabs all the way up those stairs and all the way down. When I got the Matamp and took it to practice i noticed two things:

    1) its the greatest cab i've ever heard - loud, punchy, articulate - everything i'd hoped it would be.
    and:
    2)now its up in the practice room, i'm not moving it anywhere until a gig because if it goes down those stairs I fall down the stairs with it and be crushed to death or worse: break the cab.

    So I've been leaving it there so I can practice with it and so I dont have to try and lug it down stairs and into the boot of my peugeot 107 (3-doors and bass cabs dont mix) and back every week. They guys in the squat are my buddies and the cab is safe - its Speakon only, so no one actually has anything that will run through it! (unlike my old Ashdown that got ragged) - so it sits in the corner, hidded with blankets.

    Now I sold my last Zoot Cab and I have nothing to play thought at home. I've just purchased TaySte's Simms Watts PA 100 head which needs an 8ohm Cab, My Orange Bass Terror will do 8 or 4 so REALLY what I should do is get a something like the Orange SP210 or 212 which is small, portable, and is 8ohms.


    In reality, the Matamp probably not as heavy as I make out - its not as heavy as the old Trace Elliot 410 that they have in there - I'll get figures and let you know (Veils - who I bought this off - reckoned between 40-50kgs).
    As I said, I was only lugging an ultralight Zoot 210 up those stairs for a good year or so before that, I so I was pretty spoilt. I can lift the Matamp with two hands, but im used to lifting the zoot cabs with one! Also im pretty, small 5'5 or something, so its not that easy for me anyway.

    Now I sold my last Zoot Cab and I have nothing to play thought at home. I've just purchased TaySte's Simms Watts PA 100 head which needs an 8ohm Cab, My Orange Bass Terror will do 8 or 4 so REALLY what I should do is get a something like the Orange SP210 or 212 which is small, portable, and is 8ohms.

    My Ultimate plan is getting 2 SP212s for my Bass Terror.


    What im selling is a 4ohm Gin-u-wine Matamp 212 Bass Cab in orange Tolex.
    Its loud as all hell and will punch through walls if you want to: it will handle a whapping 800w

    Its got a few little battlescars but nothing to complain about.

    ***this is just a feeler at the moment, im probably not going to be sticking this on ebay and its not open to offers**
    I do really love this cab, but I need something I can carry up and down stairs on a regular basis. If no one here wants it - hell i'll just suck it up and get another cab when i get paid.


    Let me know if your interrested. The cab is currently is in leytonstone, if there is any interrest Im happy to a) get more pics b)bring it to mine in Rickmansworth.[/quote]

    [quote name='Jimelliottbassist' post='987384' date='Oct 13 2010, 07:42 PM']USA Jazz bass with s1 switching, probably the best jazz I've played. It's just had a badass 3 bridge put on it and it really sings!(photos to be updated soon) But I've come to the decision that jazz necks just arent for me.
    Its black with a black scratch plate and a rosewood board. A few light surface scuffs from general use but no dents, so great condition.

    Trade for a USA fender p bass or Lakland. Rosewood fret boards please.[/quote]
    Any p basses out there?

    [quote name='uprightbass74' post='1070263' date='Dec 27 2010, 04:58 PM']YAMAHA SLB200 Silent Upright Bass for sale. In great nick, hasn't left my house since I bought it. Wanted to try and learn upright bass as has always been my dream but am now forced to shift some of my instruments due to financial situation. Sadly its a hobby not a job! Can deliver around London.

    RRP: £2350, so why dont we say £1500 ono.

    Don't really want trades as am skint, but just had to led my 60's Precision go, so could be tempted with maybe a 70's Fender or a Rickenbacker, but cash preferred!

    Cheers,

    tech 21 compdistort pedal. There fantastic!

    [quote name='wotnwhy' post='1034766' date='Nov 24 2010, 09:31 AM']I am aware of the option of a loop pedal and how it would work, but no need to apologize! :) Always assume ignorance then nothing is left out! :)

    I went through an FX phase several years ago (at the time when i bought a Deep Impact for £75 new), and as much as i loved all the effects i had i eventually got rid of every one of them (including selling the Deep Impact for £75..) as i just became annoyed with all the hassle they brought along with them.

    I think if i went down the FX loop road my autistic tendencies would force me to keep things neat and tidy with a pedalboard. And if i had a pedalboard it would have to have a lid. So immediately things have become much more complicated and expensive (going from 1 pedal, 1 more lead and a plug to 2 pedals, 2 powers, patch leads, pedal board). The reason i have got this far without a pedal is because i wanted to avoid excactly that (the pedalboard road), so this is why '1 pedal that does it all' is important.


    "It's a simpler solution than carrying around two amps"
    Too true, i would take the fx loop pedal over the 2 rig option every time. ....except for the time i have a bass tech and road crew :lol:[/quote]
