  1. You literally have no idea how much I want this... There's is just no way I can even get close to £3600. One day I'll track it down and own this thing! All the best with the sale matey.
  2. [quote name='sixdegrees' timestamp='1344606725' post='1767061'] The FZ-2 arrived this morning via courier in bomb-proof packaging. Thanks to JackieMoon for a smooth transaction, prompt replies, and a great pedal that I've so far failed to get a bad sound from! [/quote] likewise with the NS-2
  3. [quote name='Shambo' timestamp='1344593570' post='1766770'] "mock-odile" I think is the word. [/quote]
  4. Hey guys, I've come to the unfortunate conclusion that this bass just isn't right for my style anymore.. I love this bass and have treated it like a baby since I've owned it. It comes with an original Spector fitted hardshell case which is in equally good condition. It's served b me very well over the last few years, but I need to get something that does my playing style justice. I do a lot of solo tapping with delay and reverb and this bass is not really suited to tapping. Its an amazing bass, and when I use it in the band, its cuts through the mix beautifully and has a range of tones from deep to hi-fi. I'm sure you all know how good these are... They retail at £2200 new, and this is in nothing short of brand new condition. I really would rather just do a straight trade for another 6 string bass, I'm not really sure what I'm after yet, but all I can say is I don't have any interest in Ibanez 6 strings, I don't like them! If you have any trade bait let me know! Failing that, I'd be reluctant to take anything less that £1000 for a straight sale. Check out the pics! (It wont let me upload more than one pic at the mo! Apparently I've gone over my global upload quota???) I can email or text pics if theres any interest, will try and get some up ASAP I'm in Wickford, Essex, if you want to test her out! Cheers, Russ.
  5. Hey guys, I've been having a clear out and this is another little things I've found... its a very simple chrome 4 string bass bridge, looks pretty clean boarderline unused. Looks like it would suit a precision style bass, though I suspect its probably going to be quite a standard. £10 posted seems fair... Russ.

  6. Hey guys, I have one Orange ECC 12AX7 pre amp valve I found that I have no use for! Its boxed (the box is a little scuffed) and the valve is completely unused and very clean. They seems to be £20 new from various places on the net, so how about £10 and I'll pay postage? Russ. [attachment=115269:photo (28).JPG]
  7. Hey guys, Heres a nice and quite pimp-ish acoustic hardcase from the late 1970's (I believe!) Its a wood construction, real quality case lined with a bright red and very plush fur to protect your guitar. Its got a Crocodile skin faux leather very convincing effect to the outside, to be honest, with it being from the 70's i guess it could actually be REAL croc skin... but I'd prefer to just list it as 'faux' as I don't know! It has the 2 original keys for the lock on the latch closest to the handle. All latches are fine and the handle is very solid! The price is £45 and I'll cover the £10 postage fee too, If you want to collect it from Wickford, Essex, then I'd probably let it go for a little under £40. Its in great condition for its age, and is better made than a lot of cases I've had in the past, so I think the price is very fair! Check out the pics. (the white effect on the red lining is just photo glare, the inside is 100% spot on and all BRIGHT RED!!) Russ.

  8. Hey guys, I've got a tidy little behringer enhancer/limiter pedal here that's surplus to requirements. It's in good shape, no issues etc and works a treat. Yours for £10 and I'll even pay the postage. Cheers, Russ. [attachment=115264:photo (26).JPG]
  9. Excellent rig... I have a very similar set up with a MarkBass SD1200. A real REAL nice piece of kit, whoever buys it will not regret! Bump for an awesome set up. Russ.
  10. Me, I'm interested! But I'm £2400 short of the £2400 you want!
  11. Hey, Due to me looping much more in my solo work, I really want to upgrade to the RC-20 that's on here, so this must go! £80 inc postage or any sensible offer will do me! Comes with the box and all paperwork. Everything is in excellent condition. Cheers! Russ. 07912222127,
  12. I think it is a tone pump jr, what significants is that? And the whole 'enough amps' thing seems like a valid arguement.., I shall look into that dude, thanks! Russ.
  13. Just to clarify... The above feedback is in relation to my ad for a 'non working' TE combo and I stated several times that I do not know what the issue is as it was returned to me unworking and I sold it as such! The price was £30. The buyer took it on in the knowledge of all of this. Ta, Russ.
  14. Just to chime in... I play 9 & 10 string basses with a whole host of effects. I will literally challenge any guitarist out there to come up with bigger range of notes/tones or sounds that what my set up provides! I love messing around with sounds and effects with a range from low F# to a high C, it's very freeing. I play a lot of solo type stuff where reverb, delay, an EQ and a chorus make the sound scape awesome. If you say bass has less range than a guitar, or is less fulfilling as an instrument then please, come on over and sample a 6, 9 or 10 string bass, you'll find yourself corrected my good sirs! At the end of the day, tis each to their own, for simplicity and standard pop etc, a 4 string fender will do... For some who wants range, tone and the ability to sculpt their sound into anything, then I say effects can turn your bass into anything you want with the freedom to tap, pluck, slap, strum, pick, mute, walk, pop and harmonise your way past any guitarist! Ta, Russ.
  15. Yeah mate, I've tried it on its own with different patch leads and a different power supply... still getting that farty kinda noise! Seems only to happen with my spector though? Pedal or bass issue I wonder? Though both 'appear' fine when not used together...
  16. Hey guys, I'd really like to get this sorted ASAP so any help would be great!!! I've got this Rocktron Cyborg Reverb Pedal that's caused me an issue a while back, it produced a high pitched hum when powered along side any other pedal... Since then I isolated it with a seperate power supply, and it's been fine. But after having sold a few pedals and re-arranged my board, I'm having issues with that pedal, but of a different nature. Now the bigger is making my active Spector Euro LX6 sound like its farting! Almost like I'm playing through a blown speaker... (I'm not!!!) I've re-jigged everything in a load of different orders but still the issue remains... It's not the patch leads, or the power supply or the amp. (well, so I think!) and it only happens with this pedal and only since I got rid of a few pedals... So, any ideas??? Thanks! Russ.
  17. Haha, that made me laugh at far to loud a volume for this time in the morning! Good news! Woodworm free bass... Bad news... No house! The man has a point though, what are the little bastards eating now if they've escaped the woody prison of your bass?
  18. These are awesome beasts! One of the beast MarkBass heads in my opinion. (Next to the SD1200 of course!) If you're up for a trade, I might want it! Russ.
  19. Yeah man, I know what you mean, but unfortunately for me, I've been doing this on my mobile, and can't upload pictures! Once I get to my laptop, I'll put some piccies up, untill then my baitless hook will have to do!
  20. As it says gentlemen! Up for sale is my Diago Tourman pedal board. Good condition, fully functional etc. £75 collect or £85 posted! I managed to get 16 pedals (8 where double sized!) 3 power bricks and a 4 way extension lead on this board with all the wires with no issues! So it's big! Let me know guys! Pics on request. Russ. 07912222127.
  21. Hi guys, I have a bit of an odd one here... with a loose, non substantiated, but plausable link to Hendrix. This is a Blonde 1968 original Fender body, fully loaded with correct pick-ups etc attached to a 1982 American Fender Neck, it's a right handed guitar, strung lefty at the moment. She is all there, a fully working, well playing beast, just with a neck 14 years younger than her body! So, now to try and fully, accurately describe this vintage lady... I would very much advise viewing of this guitar prior to purchase so you can see her for yourself and take a look at the various identity marks showing what year the body/neck are. As I mentioned, the body is a 1968 Fender Stratocaster body, in Blonde showing significant signs of wear as one would expect for a guitar that has been used well for all of its life in one way or another. It does have a few dings, again to be expected, but the body is sound other than that, you can see the wear in the paint, fully and naturally relic'd over its 45 years of life. The pick-ups are original to the body, as is the hardware, knobs and electrics but the scratch plate has been changed around the same time as the neck, possibly later along with the screws etc. The body has no backplate, as you can see the tremelo system is open to the world. I have a quite concise list of points that any potential buyer is welcome to tick off, I have original infomation regarding dating the pots, and electronics etc that we can go over if you want to buy so you feel comfortable everything is on the money. The neck is a 1982 (See serial number E207020) you can check this online at the guitar data project. This was bought in 1982 as new and fitted to the strat, it has been played and gigged probably at least once a week for the last 30 years, hence the blackening of the neck mainly towards the bottom of the neck. As much as this looks err... "vintage" to say the least, everything is still solid and very much playable. This guitar has seen relentless use for over 30 years, and the body has seen use for probably 33 years or so. I am unsure what life the body has seen between 1971 and 1979. The previous owner of this body sold it to my producer in 1979 I believe. Right, that was the facts, now for the story... The guitars body was built in 1968, and the previous owner (prior to my producer) adamently claims that he aquired the guitar in either 1969 or 1970 at a Jimi Hendrix gig in London, where Jimi had taken the Strat (Then with its original neck) and smashed it on stage, this previous owner goes on to say he was one of the ones at the front who grabbed the body and wrestled for it, before staking claim and running out of the venue, body in hand. This chap was from Ireland where the body ended up for the next decade or so before being sold to my producer (no idea for how much) along with a photo from the gig (which within the last 30 years has gone missing) Everything seems to tie in, dates, body style, colour, etc but obviously I cannot substantiate this story, I'd love to believe its true because this guitar has bags of soul, and would be fitting to have been smashed by Hendrix, but alas, this is just the story we are told. There may be a way to varify it, but as is, it is sold as a 1968 loaded body with a 1982 neck. See the pictures, looks at its character and come round for a play if you want, please no tyre kickers though, regardless of the story being true or not, shes a real soulful player. Any questions, ask away, I will do my best to answer. I'm in wickford, and available on 07912222127.
