[quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1468696815' post='3092767'] I'm going to run a book on when the first one comes up 2nd hand... oddly I reckon it'll sell just as quick as it did new! [/quote] Do me a favour John, we ALL know it will be me

[quote name='itsmedunc' timestamp='1468948365' post='3094597'] Have you got another hankering Karl? [/quote] Me Dunc? How very dare you. Looking to get a Streamliner 600 as the 900 is a bit too much for my cabs (alkthough The Bass Whisperer doesn't agree). [quote name='blunderthumbs' timestamp='1468950103' post='3094610'] What's the blue light issue with these amps? [/quote] Ian, as soon as you turn them on, the Volume Police get their blue lights on Seriously though, in the last picture, post #1, you can see the pre amp valves glowing blue. It's not actually the pre amp valves, it's some blue LED's. It's for show, gimmicky. Quite a few Streamliner owners have had these lights stop working, or they work intermittently. Old (or Dark ?) horse on Talkbass knows all the ins/outs as he was one of GB engineers. I've had STR 600 AND 900 and I've not had it happen to me. A friend of mine called David Brosnan (from Leeds) has just replaced all 3 LED's at a cost of under £20. Problem solved. Some owners prefer them without the LED's anyway. I had a chap from Huddersfield want to trade his 600 for my 900. His blue lights promptly failed and I've not heard from him since

So, it's around £300 less than getting a Limelight built for you. It's light. It looks like a fabulous 70's Precision. I knw it will sound great, Limelight seem to use excellent pups. It's got a slimmer nut width than most (but bigger than a Jazz's) same as a Nate Mendel. It's a great buy. For those in the UK that are interested, DON'T HESITATE. Marinus is a really great guy and you will be delighted with the way he deals with couriering a bass. Good luck fella , lovely bass!

[quote name='FuNkShUi' timestamp='1468918118' post='3094234'] Why downgrade? Is it not better to have the power if needed? Not being stupid here, genuinely interested [/quote] 2 x 200 watt cabs. Despite what The Bass Whisperer says, I would be more comfortable putting 600 watts through them, rather than 900 watts. Although in reality, my Streamliner hasn't been past 9 o'clock on the master, so really, it's all a bit in my mind

Sold. Fender American Signature series Adam Clayton Jazz bass.

Unless somebody comes in with something like a Road Worn P and £250, it's most likely to be still here Damon. Unlucky Once again, UK only (in theory). As ever, lot of interest from the continent. So, I will consider it. IF YOU ARE WILLING TO ORGANISE AND PAY FOR YOUR OWN INSURED COURIER, we can talk -

I'm using Streamliner 900 through 2 x Focus 112's. Does it all for me at every gig. So much so I'm looking to "downgrade" to a Streamliner 600. Even against mic'd up drummer, the bloody thing is hardly switched on. Plenty of low end thump, yet Jaco sound always available from short-ish solo intro to one number, and a bit of 'Arry when needed. In 40 years I've played through a LOT of gear, but my little rig just thumps for Britain

Ahem. I believe I was the 1st to receive one, so when club numbers come to being handed out........................... Actually, I've never been no. 1 in anything, bit late to start now

Need to raise funds, BUT I would trade this for a Streamliner 600. So, this one is 900 watts at 4 ohms, 500 watts at 8 ohms. Spec [url="http://www.genzbenz.com/?fa=detail&mid=2663&sid=675&cid=95"]http://www.genzbenz....&sid=675&cid=95[/url] Not perfect cosmetically, but very good. Some scratching on the paintwork. I've not had the "blue lamp issue" on this amp. Gorgeous amp but too 'big' for me. £330 collected from Wigan, £355 insured UK couriered. Any trial in Wigan, thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.

Need to raise some funds, so bargain price (IMO) on this 900 watt (4 ohms) 500 watt (8 ohms) head. Spec [url="http://www.genzbenz.com/?fa=detail&mid=2824&sid=715&cid=95"]http://www.genzbenz....&sid=715&cid=95[/url] Cosmetically reasonable, some scratches etc. NO FEET, they had been removed and the head velcro'd to cab. Bit scratchy on master vol put, but twiddle a few times and it goes away. IF (big if!) I get the time, I'll take the lid off and do some contact cleaner, but I'm not promising. Due to the little niggles, this excellent 900 WATT head is £300 collected from Wigan, £325 UK insured courier. Any trial in Wigan. And yes, it does loud and is probably good for metal! Cheers, Karl.

Belated feedback due to holiday. Chris bought a cab from me. Decisive, did what he said he's do, when he said he'd do it. Lovely bloke as well. Yet another great ambassador for our community. Fully recommended, deal with confidence, top bloke. Enjoy Chris and thanks again, cheers, Karl.

[quote name='bagsieblue' timestamp='1467996792' post='3087973'] I'm getting more and more attracted to this. Itching for a look / play on one. [/quote] Martyn, you can come and have a try of mine the week after next (I'm away next week). If I still have it

Change in circs means I would be better off with 2 x 112's. Something has come up relatively locally, so, whilst they are up, this will be. Once they go, this will get withdrawn to deal with the circs in a more leisurely manner So, pretty much immaculate, less than a year old Gen 3 Super Twin. Steel grill. Total cost new inc delivery and Roqsolid, would be £905. The cover is a bit mucky. Photos to follow when the wife goes out, cos she's going to do her nut Spec [url="http://barefacedbass.com/product-range/Super-Twin.htm"]http://barefacedbass.../Super-Twin.htm[/url] £650 collected from Wigan or meet up within 50 miles. Sorry, unusually I don't have the time to sort courier out. Any trial in Wigan, no obligation. Feedback below. Thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.
