  1. Hi, I've just measured it and the spacing between the pole pieces is 16mm
  2. Sold my mixer and mixer carry bag to Pat. Lovely easy transaction with quick payment and enough communication to keep everything moving along nicely. Sell with confidence to this man. 👍
  3. One Thundertron neck pickup, boxed, as new. "I bought it for a project", but on second thoughts decided that I would more likely ruin a good bass than improve it. I think that these are about £140 (including postage) direct from the States Manufacturers info is here: https://tvjones.com/thundertron-neck-universal-mount/#product-tab-addition-149
  4. Well, you can do it either way round, what's important is that when ring and sleeve are connected by a jack plug, battery negative and ground are joined together.
  5. Simon moved his Ibanez EHB1000 on to me today - lovely bass, very well looked after and he is a top man to deal with.
  6. RSbassman just bought my Markbass 602 and I can recommend him to anyone doing a deal on Basschat. No messing around: sensible offer, quick pickup. A good man to deal with.
  7. This chunky little 2 x 6" combo has been used as my practice amp and because it has a nice tone and plenty of power I thought that it might get used elsewhere, so I bought it a Roqsolid cover. Needless to say neither have ever been taken out of the studio, so the cover is in 'as new' condition. The combo itself is in pretty good condition with very few external marks to the cabinet. Please see the photos for several small marks on the metalwork. Apart from the Volume control, tone controls are Markbass' own design VLE and VPF (basically mid scoop and top cut) Inputs for instrument and an aux for playing along to tracks through the amp. It has the usual DI output and a socket for an external speaker. Headphone output on a mini jack if you need to run it in 'silent mode'. It all still works perfectly and delivers a surprisingly useful output if you wind it up. At 9.8kg in its cover its a breeze to transport. Obviously I'd prefer pickup from Uxbridge area, but I can post for £15 if necessary. Message me if you need any other info. I see that the last time someone tried to sell one of these they had second thoughts and withdrew it! Cat shown to indicate size of combo

  8. Trace Elliott Elf for sale. 200W into a 4 ohm speaker. 3 way tone controls. DI out on the back Excellent condition, fully working, with mains lead and short Jack to Speakon cable I've carried it around in a Gator bag that was originally designed for a radio mic, so there is unused space inside. It would probably take a vocal mic and an instrument wireless system. Only selling as (usual story) I've just bought a TC Amp and I now need to move this one on
  9. Would you consider connecting the Chorus pedal using the go and return of the Markbass effects loop? That moves the (possible) source of the hiss downstream where the signal is higher and the hiss/noise should be less.
  10. As above, the tip wire stays where it is. The battery negative goes to sleeve (usually) and ground to ring. When you plug in a jack, sleeve is joined to ring and the battery is in circuit.
  11. I'd second the idea of a Yamaha. There appear to be lots on ebay. One thing I found was that it was easier to play a guitar with a 1 3/4" nut rather than 1 11/16 - particularly going from bass to guitar and back again. It doesn't seem much, but just allows that bit of extra space for the fingers at the nut end of the fretboard. I tried one but found the lack of fret markers on the Faith a bit of a pain - no problem if all you do is play guitar I suppose...
  12. Hi, if this is still available I'd like to buy it. thanks Nick
  13. One Swan 3U flightcase only used a few times and still in almost perfect condition. Usual bomb-proof construction in aluminium and ply with rack ears for standard M6 rack screws Internal depth between the two sets of rack ears is 40cm Approximate total size of the case is 50cms deep x 51cms wide x 20cms high There are about 3cms depth inside each lid to allow for switches, knobs and buttons on any installed equipment. Postage at cost, or come and pick it up. It weighs 7.8 kg so I'm anticipating it might cost £12-15 to courier.

  14. Just bought Chris' Sansamp RPM. Like everyone else, found him a dead easy guy to deal with and the Sansamp arrived safely via 24hr courier - can't say fairer than that!
  15. Posting this here in case anyone is looking for a PA amp, although it will knock out 700W into 8 ohms mono bridged as an instrument amp. Hugely versatile 1U rackmount Class D design only 25cm deep, lots of inputs (see photos) output to speakers from speakon or binding posts Brand new, tested working, but never used in anger. Courier would be about £15
  16. Having worked in broadcast for many years I can confirm that the difference between 'live' sound and 'broadcast' sound are huge. The bigger TV shows use two different mixers and sound operators to achieve a decent result in each case. Obviously most people streaming these days don't have anything like that luxury, so it comes down to whether your sound desk is flexible enough to produce two different feeds and how those are monitored. If you want to know whether the problem is in the feed, or in the way that it is being streamed then it should be possible to record the sound feed to the streaming device at source - ie a split off the feed as it leaves the mixer and goes to the streaming device. is the bass audible in that recording? If not, the problem is with the mix. If the bass is ok at that point then the streaming device/software/interface is causing the bass roll-off. The fix in either case will be different - and may of course be impossible without spending a lot of money. Good luck!
  17. One of those useful pedals which are often hard to find. I used it to switch between basses, routing to an amp with a single input, but no longer need it. Operation is completely passive, so although there is an internal battery it is only there to light a Red or Yellow LED to show which input you are using Missing one screw on the case, but otherwise just minor road-wear postage included in the price
  18. This is a small belt-mounted preamp with the very high input impedance that you need to correctly match piezo pickups Battery powered, one input jack, one output jack - just plug and play. As new condition. Postage included in the price Size is 5.5cms wide, 3.5cms deep (plus belt clip) and 11cms high (including the gain control)
  19. Excellent condition, fully working, no velcro as its never been used on a pedalboard. Price includes postage

  20. Bought an Empress Compressor unit from Jacek - nice simple transaction with the unit arriving carefully packaged and in tip-top condition. I would recommend him to anyone considering a trade, sale or purchase.
  21. Momentary action footswitch from Zoom Standard jack socket to connect Postage included. £10 if you want to come and pick it up from Uxbridge
  22. +1 for anything made by TC Helicon. Its good gear and it just works.
  23. One Ibanez gig bag. Intended for a headless bass (EHB1500) so not a great deal of length - 104cms internal as accurately as I can measure. 39cms width internally. Pockets on the front as per photo and straps on the back. Also doubles as a cat mattress. Uk Postage included in the price.
  24. Excellent bass for a remarkably low price. This has had one modification, the strap pin has been moved up to the horn, apart from that as per factory spec: Controls are: pickup selector switch, Volume for each p/u and tone control. All tuners, controls and pickups functioning fine. Only reason that I'm selling is that I've just bought a Guild Starfire, so don't need this bass as well I'll courier if necessary, at cost. Otherwise pickup from Uxbridge, NW London.
