  1. If you arrange and pay for the shipping and insurance, and take the risk that's ok. I'll pack it securely but my liability ends once it's been picked up
  2. Hi Andy No apologies required for me. My mother in law's scales make me nearly a stone lighter than I am so I know how variable they can be. I don't think it's at all heavy but I was attracted by the originally advertised super skinny weight so I don't think it's the one for me. GLWTS!
  3. Spacing is 16.75mm, action is pretty low already and could probably go lower although I'm happy with it the way it is
  4. Price drop - £400 Had this for a long time but had little opportunity to use it in the bands I've played in over the years so its pretty much as I bought it (sometime in the 90s?) apart from the addition of lined frets. A trawl of the internet provides some additional information about provenance and construction that I believe to be correct. Mazeti basses were manufactured in Korea in the 1990's. The body and neck are mainly walnut and maple, with solid walnut wings and with maple and mahogany through neck and ebony fretboard. The black hardware seems to be of decent quality. Controls are active/passive switch (currently working as a kill switch - see below), volume and tone controls, and 3 band active tone control. It's a 35 inch scale, currently strung with round wounds. My bathroom scales are not very precise but on the basis of weighing with and without holding the bass I'd say it weighs between 8 and 9 pounds. Condition is excellent. Only defects/blemishes are a slight dent below neck pickup as indicated by my finger in one photo, and the battery powering the preamp runs down even when unplugged. I suspect the latter requires a minor fix to the jack socket? The price reflects the likely cost of getting that fixed. When I've played around on it I've been perfectly happy with the passive sound so had no incentive to fix it. There's no case or gig bag but I can package it up robustly if the buyer organises collection and insurance. Alternatively a socially distanced pickup or meet up within a reasonable distance of Tunbridge Wells could be arranged.
  5. I bought this Stagg EUB some years ago on a whim and hardly ever used it. It's been kept in a gig bag in a cool, dry, smoke free environment. Electrics work fine although I haven't tried the MP3 input. The only blemishes I can find are a few small marks on the head where it caught against a ceiling, and a crack in the paint/lacquer (see photo featuring my finger) that has been there since I bought it. It is alongside the top of the joint between the neck and body, has not changed over the years, and the neck /body joint appears completely stable. Gig bag is in very good condition. I'll also include a DVD and lesson book of Jazz Upright Bass by Ed Friedland. Collection or meet up within a reasonable distance of Tunbridge Wells only I'm afraid as I wouldn't trust a courier with this due to its length and absence of hard packaging.
  6. My son is getting married in Sep 2020 and is looking for a band to play at the wedding. About 120 guests and venue size to match. Location is somewhere near Suffolk and Cambridgeshire border I believe. He and his beloved are about 30 and whilst they don't mind some of the music their parents like they also want things that are much more contemporary and resonant with their generation. They are looking for a really good quality outfit (that's one reason my band were excluded). I thought I'd try an ad here as well as just searching web. If you are interested then please send details such as set list, line up, links to live footage, cost. Cheers, Mick
  7. I'm advertising this on behalf of a friend, who is a guitarist (but he means well), and hence not on this forum. Ampeg BA-115 bass combo & padded dust cover, excellent condition, used twice - bought as house backline for small venue but turns out to be more than required. Original cost £320 + £45 for the cover, selling both for £250. Location: Tunbridge Wells. Shipping possible at buyer's expense but collection or meet up preferred.
  8. KSDs are great basses and with the jretro this is a steal. If I didn't have already the 60s version of this I'd bite your hand off!
  9. Thanks for the advice gents. To be on the safe side I think I'll avoid using them together.
  10. Hi All I have a Barefaced Big Baby T which I like and has served me well but I took the plunge to get a Barefaced One10 for the size and the more vintage sound they are supposed to have. So far either cab has sufficed for a gig but if I was playing a larger venue what's the general view of you discerning fellow BC members of using the cabs together? (Amp = Genz Benz Shuttle 9.2 so should be pokey enough). I've played them together at a quiet volume and they sounded OK to my ears but I was curious whether this was bordering on heresy akin to pouring a fine red wine into a pint of Timothy Taylors. Thanks in anticipation of your views...
  11. Bienvenidos Andrés!
  12. No, sold a while ago. Sorry thought I'd updated it
  13. I've missed work and sat in all day for a UPS collection that never materialised but was showing up as due on their tracking. Just highlighting to fellow BCers that they aren't immune from the screw ups people report by other courier companies. I booked through Parcels2go, maybe that hand off is flaky?
  14. Consider 115 sold subject to payment
  15. Thank you Dr.! I hope someone reading that will be prompted to follow your sound medical advice for the good of their hearing
  16. These cabs are a few years old but have not been heavily used and have been well kept in a pet free, smoke free, and Shake 'n' Vac free environment (very important given the felt covering). Each cab weighs around 19 - 20 Kg and are both rated 4 ohm. I would say their condition is very good, I try and look after my kit; the plastic/rubber corners have some abrasions to show they are doing their job and there is a small indentation (see last photo) through the felt covering on one side of the 210 showing where an over-enthusiastic drummer positioned their cymbal (with a comb-over it wouldn't show). The 210 also has the plastic tweeter volume knob missing although the knurled control is still easy enough to turn by hand without it. I'm willing to ship in the UK (approx £30 insured) although also happy to meet up within a mutually convenient radius of Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Happy to email more photos or provide more details on request. For sale only, no trades. Prices: EBS 210 on its own - £400 EBS 115 on its own - £375 Both - £750
  17. Bought a Shuker Artist from brams77. Ad perfectly described the condition; bass was posted promptly and well packaged. I'd happily deal with him again.
