I’d like to stress how good these relatively cheap and compact units are. It’s not an effect as such but much more that that. An always on sonic balancer. I’d not be without one for conventional amp and cab use.

I was really pleased to see that the target has been reached. Well done to all Peter

Absolutely stunning. Were timing better I would have been most interested (I just bought one P and I’m building a 2nd). GLWTS and all the best with the arthritis. You have my kind thoughts on that.

It’s not just down to the set frequency, it’s evidently also the carefully chosen slope of the cut off. Evidently. It works and Thumpinators traditionally sell really quickly as they are made to order. You can’t buy them off the shelf. A few years back I was using a Markbass 500 head into a pair of Aguilar 12” cabs. (Or it could have been a Zoot 2x12). I fitted the Micro Thumpinator at a band rehearsal and everyone was amazed at the apparent volume increase without touching the bass or amp. The speaker movement went from a lot to a little.

Now £200 deliveries delivered to the UK. This is my Shure GLXD16 wireless system in excellent condition as hopefully the photos show. This is a professional level wireless system and it is complete with the power supply, guitar lead, transmitter, tuner/receiver and two batteries, one of which is nearly new and both hold an excellent charge. I’ll add in a USB lead too as I have about 20 knocking about. It has never let me down or dropped out. The tuner is very accurate and the whole system is high quality and of metal construction. From memory I paid £250 2nd hand without the spare battery. This is the 16, not the 16+. Including original box and instructions. Peter

I always have one on my board. I too found it tightened up my sound with much reduced driver movement. I don’t need two but I’d have it straightaway if I did. As you all know, Lee is a top man.

Awesome FX. Mines going nowhere.

Some better photos

Sometimes I have to humbly admit that my iPhone does a better job of capturing images that my £2k camera.

I’m not I’m afraid. I have at least 1 too many already.

I presently have this bass on eBay. It is a genuinely exceptional instrument. My feedback on BC hopefully stands well for my reputation as a genuine bloke. My reserve on eBay is £525 with £25 UK delivery. I was hoping for more but if anyone is prepared to match that they will get an absolute bargain. Peter I've owned this bass from new. I'm suffering osteoporosis that affects my spine and I'm only using lightweight basses so this sadly needs to go. Not that it's a boat anchor at 9.25lb. It is in my opinion an awesome bass. Why? It is beautifully made and superbly finished. It balances well, looks good, plays superbly and sounds awesome. The specs: 35" Scale, presently strung with DR Sunbeams that have a lot of life in them. Alder body Zero fret, angled back headstock, 24 frets MetalCraft M5 bridge (String spacing : 18mm) Licensed Hipshot Ultralight tuners A pair of Cort VTB-ST single coil pickups that are very good. 3 piece maple neck and 12" radius hard maple board with block white pearloid inlays The original Bartolini pre-amp wasn't great and when it failed I ordered a Noll pre-amp from Germany to replace it. The Noll is a great replacement and features Volume, Blend, Mid +/-, Treble over Bass +/-, and a passive tone that is always in circuit. There is a push/pull on the Volume for active/passive. Proper chrome Warwick knobs fit on the Noll pre-amp and look glorious. The finish on this bass is lustrous. A deep black that is also very tough. The back of the neck felt unfinished and the neck now has a gloss finish that plays superbly. It really is a bass that exceeds itself hugely at this price range. It is close to mint condition with no knocks or dings that I can find. I'm not hugely impressed with my photos so can provide more if needed. Situated in Kendal in the far flung NW of England. viewing welcome.

Owned from new by myself, in perfect working order and mint condition. It has had an easy life. Complete with box and instructions. Can be collected or delivered to the UK for £5. Velcro on rear.

It’s a lovely example. Quite heavy?

It looks lovely. Hopefully the relief is 0.3mm and not 30. GLWTS
