[quote name='johnbiffa' timestamp='1498751556' post='3326839'] Great amp (I had one when I first started playing bass and it was in no where near as good condition as this !) Buy from Chris with confidence and someone will get a real bargain ! [/quote] Hey John, thanks for that mate. Played it last night and probably shouldn't have......... Hope all's well

Well...... I bought this about two months ago from my old trading partner and rather splendid bass player Jay Synchro, and haven't even got around to collecting it! I've got a new project coming up and am wanting to put some cash into a couple of acoustic instruments, and so am rather embarrassed to say that I'm selling this before I've even played it! I'm hoping Jay might send me the pics from the original listing which is here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/303980-aer-amp-one-sold/page__p__3279921__hl__aer__fromsearch__1#entry3279921"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry3279921[/url], but form many years experience I know that he looks after his gear very well so have no doubts it's 100%. You know the deal with these; phenomenal amps, even more so given their size and weight. Put one of these inside a much bigger cab and you'd be easily fooled into thinking you're hearing the bigger cab! No trades thanks, unless it's a pedal steel (not lap steel) or a very good resonator guitar, otherwise I really do need some cash for the project in question. And £600 is a decent price for this bloody good piece of kit Will post pics ASAP Cheers Chris

[quote name='three' timestamp='1498491360' post='3324980'] This looks to be in amazing condition for its age. I love these - I've just almost no use for it at all and the rational bit of me (the bit that I work hard, and frequently successfully, to suppress) is remaining firm...for now. Incredible price too in my opinion [/quote] Rational decision making is overrated Thanks mate, hope all's well Chris

[quote name='sunfish' timestamp='1498566346' post='3325546'] Will the the Jaguar fit Precision bodies? I.E. same heel width? Look forward to the pix [/quote] There's a link the the original FS ad on BC here with a pic http://basschat.co.uk/topic/301136-sold-vintage-reissue-fender-jaguar-neck/page__p__3244747__hl__jaguar%20neck__fromsearch__1#entry3244747. I was anticipating selling without tuners which were going to go onto a Precision neck, but if you wanted them perhaps £200 with tuners would be reasonable? Let me know if you'd like more pics also. Cheers Chris

Sounds like our current PM to be honest

Bass shed clear-out continues.

Clearing out the bass shed and appear to have a lot of Jazz Bass necks lying around. I really do prefer Precision necks so these are not much use to me (which begs the question I guess of why I bought them in the first place....). I would like these gone quickly so I am listing at very very good prices, With apologies for being blunt, I won't be taking offers or trades. I can supply tuners with each neck also. Fender MIA 1974. Maple board, pearl block inlays. Bought from Colin (King Tut) here http://basschat.co.u...__fromsearch__1 £225. Neck is a whole lot better than Colin's description might suggest! SOLD Fender MIJ Jaguar. Rosewood board, pearl block inlays, no binding £175SOLD No-name. Rosewood board, biding, dots. Very '60s look with stunning flame on headstock. Jazz width. £50 **SOLD** Warmoth lined fretless with pearl blocks custom order/build £200 (£225 with Schaller tuners, cost close to $600 from Warmoth). Jazz width, and yes, that lovely thick slab of a board is ebony, and it has very little play wear (flats only). **SOLD** Squier Precision FL neck, width quite narrow for a P-Bass but a couple of mm wider than a Jazz. I assume board is ebanol, it's quite nice and feels almost like graphite to play. £50 **SOLD**

Slowly clearing out the bass shed of old gigging gear in preparation for a recording project.

Dropped my double bass :-( What to do now?
Beedster replied to malbass's topic in EUB and Double Bass
If it still plays, carry on. Most of my DBs looked far worse than that when I got them. They're pretty tough things in the main, and there's the school of thought that suggests that it's better to live with the slight damage/misalignment than try to fix it Chris -
Please tell me why I should avoid getting a Rickenbacker!
Beedster replied to Al Krow's topic in Bass Guitars
Not read the thread above, but will say that after 30-odd years of playing Fenders and at the same time taking far too much heed of the Ric critics, when I finally played one it was a revelation. OK, I was playing flats and achieving a far more Macca tone that that most associate with Rics, but over the years I owned a 4001, two v63s, a 4003FL and a c64, and I still experience pangs of regret at selling the latter two, both of which were among the best instruments I've ever owned (a list that includes several pre-CBS Fenders, 80's Wals, pre-EB 'rays, Modulus Fleas etc). As a percentage, I've played far more dogs by Fender than by Rickenbacker. They're not for everyone for sure, but if I had a pound for every bass player who slags them off on the basis of one poorly set-up example they played in a local guitar shop, I'd be able to buy back my c64 -
I've had a few questions re volume. To my ear it's loud. It holds it own against the type of guitarists and drummers I tend to gig with, and in small venues (pubs). It's certainly not a bedroom/living room combo; even at lowest volume it still kicks out some dBs (whilst it looks quite small in the pics, it's got a pretty big frontal area around the 15" speaker). In short, it's totally giggable, and goes VERY loud for a 25w combo, but is not an SVT. Chris

Never used them but came from reliable seller on BC with an otherwise impeccable PA. £50 seems fair?

Anyone got any decent tabs for Paul Simon's Graceland album?
Beedster replied to Beedster's topic in Theory and Technique
Just revisiting this as I may be in need and I'm not sure I ever followed up on any of the above offer (2 years seems a very long time). Particularly interested in Diamonds and Under African Skies, both of which I thought I had down quite well but which both contain a few sections I can't quite figure out Cheers Chris -
And again tonight (at least for those of you with Netflix). 'Bill Nye saves the World' series 1 episode 2. If you like and/or use alternative medicine however, don't watch it
