You know the score with these. Small, light and very very good at what they do. Now using PA for everything so this is no longer needed.

[quote name='ChrisF' timestamp='1473162648' post='3127507'] Seriously..I know it would have probably gone for more on eBay..but I wanted it to go to someone on here as you guys have been so helpful to me over the last few years.

Like all sticks, it has a tendency to spin but you soon get used to it, in my case via the rather elegant sartorius muscle Clarkson was recently given the once over by the good M. Philippe Briande in Canterbury who, much as the PR agencies have with his namesake, removed some of the rougher edges. For £250 this is a lot of EUB, the hardware alone cost close to that from Thomann. I'm having something of a clear-out at Beedster Studios has suddenly become extremely cluttered. Collection only, although we could have some fun and find a courier brave enough Chris

[quote name='chriswareham' timestamp='1473149745' post='3127290'] I've wanted one of these for ages. Peter Hook rates his 1200S with the active circuit as the best bass he's ever owned. I prefer passives, so as a Hooky obsessive the 1200 is a bass I've lusted after. Then I rewatched the Love Will Tear Us Apart video, and Hooky's actually playing a 1200 - the 1200S was a replacement after his first Yamaha was stolen along with the rest of New Order's equipment.

[quote name='Sharkfinger' timestamp='1473147915' post='3127268'] Hey Chris, going to be 'that guy' and ask about the weight. Previous thread never did get round to putting a figure on it. [/quote] Hi mate, it's moderate weight, I don't have accurate scales here but it's lighter than both my Fender Precisions, neither of which are heavy by any means. However if you're looking for a light instrument per se, this is probably not it. Cheers C

I bought this a few months back as a stop-gap whilst I got PA sorted and it's now no longer being used (I'm now using a Heil PR-40 straight to PA). It's the older version with the more traditional covering (I'll post pics later today I promise), but is on good functional and cosmetic condition. I've gone back and forth between AI and PJB for double bass over the years and found that when push comes to shove, whilst PJB perhaps win on the clarity and hi-fi angle, AI give you far better sound on stage and can cope with the lower frequencies at volume far better than can equivalent sized PJB rigs. I also think the output of AI gear simply sounds more like DB than that of most other amps. Perhaps most importantly, and perhaps as the result of the downward facing speaker that appears to distribute the output evenly in all directions, both I and my fellow players tend to be able to hear this little thing a lot better than equivalent amps, and as you'll be aware with DB, that's important! Anyway, £400 is a steal, get it while it's still here. Please ask any questions in the thread below Cheers Chris
