  1. This is an Eminence Red White and Blues speaker, essentially a classic Fender speaker, tweaked for better all-round performance. 120 watts, 8 ohms, 12" The basis for the voicing of this speaker is the classic stock Fender speaker; Jensen or suchlike. As a rule of thumb the Fender speakers kick out a lot of bass and treble, with a very 'scooped' mid-range, great for certain old-school clean tones: Country, Reggae, Jazz and Surf, in particular, but with a tendancy to 'fizz' and disappear into the mix with overdrive or distortion. This speaker starts there, but reigns in the lows and highs, with a bit more presence in the mids. This means that while it still gives a classic Fender clean tone, it sits in the mix a little better, without that simultaneous 'punch-in-the-guts-and-stab-in-the-earhole' at volume. With dirt it really improves on the originals, with tighter lows, smoother highs, and a nice 'chewy' detail to the all important mid range. I have used the speaker in a 60 watt Fender combo, at reasonable volume in clean venues, primarily weddings and private parties, for a couple of years. It is still in very good condition and comes in it's original box. £40 posted! Best, Andy [attachment=169315:DSC_0149.jpg] [attachment=169316:DSC_0150.jpg]
  2. This is my Harley Benton fretless acoustic bass, bought to simulate a double bass, but no longer used as I am playing a couple of uprights owned by a theatre show. It does a good impression with a set of flatwounds on it, particularly if mic'ed to pick up the acoustic sound and with the piezo used just to fill in the lows. It has only been used to record at home, so is in very good nick. Strings are a clean set of Elites flatwounds, and it comes with a sturdy gig bag. There are some slight imperfections on the fingerboard, hard to capture but shown on the photos- they are visible in the right light, but don't interfere with stopping (fretting!) the strings. £80 posted.
