  1. Lust is a good enough reason. No other justification needed! And well spotted on the Status case 😊
  2. Regretfully moving on my Glockenklang Blue Sky head. Lovely Class A preamp, subtle, musical EQ, Class D power amp section that never seems to break a sweat, great DI and versatile feature set. The amp is in good condition, has been well looked after, and comes with its original gig bag and rack ears. Can post at cost.
  3. He might have been at Live Aid. But he didn't play the gig!
  4. I very recently bought the 64 Black Panel version. I felt very unsure about spending so much on a preamp pedal. Literally the first notes I played through it I thought "Oh yes, that's good. Worth it. Keeping it". I wish I could afford this too. Have a bump!
  5. Looking great Jono. Enjoy!
  6. Sounds painful. Hope you recover quickly and well. If I venture your way in the next few weeks I’ll let you know 😊
  7. If you buy the stand it will encourage you to get more basses! I don’t think Rummikub has ever been played. Buy the stand and I’ll throw it in for free 😁 Pie Face is great fun. More on my level.
  8. Yes it is! Well spotted. From a Mark I Stage 88. Alongside loads of recycling material and other clutter! 😀
  9. Now sold and on its way to Glasgow. Thanks everyone for your interest, lovely comments and arguments about the colour 😁
  10. I can see what you mean in the pics, but there is no discolouration. That's the lighting. It really doesn't do the colour justice. It's a hard colour to capture!
  11. Thanks. When I bought it it was described as Sonic Blue. And it's definitely blue in the flesh!
  12. This is the 1966 reissue that Fender Japan manufactured for a limited time between 2010 and 2011. It’s in excellent all round condition with only a few scuffs and dings around the body (please see pictures). It has an alder body, maple neck, bound rosewood fretboard with blocks, in Vintage White with matching headstock. The frets are in great shape with no discernible wear. It was originally made for the Japanese market and as such was a non-export model. I bought it used from Ishibashi in 2011 and imported it myself. The original Japanese pickups and electrics have been replaced with Nordstrand NJ4 - 60s wind, CTS pots, period correct capacitor, wiring and Switchcraft jack. The work was done by Feline Guitars in Croydon, who also did a fret dress at the same time. The original pickups and electronics will be included, but the Nordstrands are much better. The bass weighs 10lbs and is nicely balanced. It comes in an SKB ABS case, which is relatively unused, but does have a couple of feet missing so it doesn’t stand up well. Thanks for looking. Any questions please ask.
  13. This is a lovely example of a Fender Japan Precision. It’s the 70s reissue model dating from 2004-05. Alder body, Maple neck and dark rosewood fretboard. I’ve seen the colour described as Sonic Blue, Daphne Blue and Seafoam Green - it’s definitely blue! This is a non-export model for the domestic Japanese market. It has a Seymour Duncan SPB1 pickup installed which came with the bass. I don’t have the original pickup unfortunately. It’s in great overall condition apart from some belt buckle marks on the tummy cut. I’ve tried to photograph these - none of them go through the finish. The frets are in excellent condition - I had the frets looked at by Feline Guitars in Croydon who levelled and polished them. The bass comes in a tweed Warwick Rockcase. Thanks for looking. Any questions please ask!
  14. Both monitors in very good condition, and in the limited edition white finish. No box, so collection or local delivery only.
  15. Used with signs of wear to the foam support points. But useable. It can be disassembled so posting is possible, but that will add £10 to the sale price.
  16. The Bergantino HT115 rarely comes up for sale. This one is in excellent condition, and hardly used. 400w, 8 ohms with Bergantino padded cover. Shown with Bergantino 2x10 for size comparison. Collection only or local delivery I’m afraid as I have no shipping box. Price dropped to £375. Specs... -15" cast frame woofer w/ 96oz. magnet, vented pole piece and 3" voice coil -high intelligibility tweeter with cast horn -power handling - 400 watts rms -custom phase - coherent crossover with tweeter level control -frequency response: 40hz - 18khz -sensitivity: 99db • anechoic: 2.83v/1m -impedance: 8 ohms -dimensions: 18"H x 22-3/4"W x 18"D -weight: 59lbs
  17. Hi BC Gang, For her 16th birthday my daughter wants a five string bass (what teenage girl doesn't?). She's quite a small girl at 4' 11'' and has quite small hands. I'm wondering if there's a five string out there that will suit her - something with a smallish body, narrow neck width and 32-34" scale length? She current plays on a four sting, medium scale (32") Yamaha BBIVs which she is very comfortable on. But being heavily into metal she's really hankering after a five string! Any recommendations? I have an open mind on budget - but looking at £250-1000 and preferably used. Thanks in advance.
  18. Thanks Duckman! It is a fantastic instrument, and incredibly versatile. If it doesn't sell before the point where I don't need the money anymore, I wouldn't be upset about keeping it in the herd!
