  1. That's a proper stunner. Gorgeous. Congrats!
  2. What's the power handling?
  3. Genz-Benz factory rack-mount kit for the Shuttle range of bass amplifiers. Absolutely as rare as rocking horse manure, you cannot find these for love nor money. Note that this will only fit the Shuttle amps, NOT the ShuttleMax amps. Has some rack rash around the screw holes as you’d expect, but the front face is absolutely pristine. Comes with the requisite screws for attaching to the amp, but not the rack screws. **AMP NOT INCLUDED**
  4. Genz-Benz Shuttle 9.2 bass amplifier. Superb sounding and VERY LOUD amp. Fully functioning apart from slightly scratchy master volume pot on startup, which seems to be quite common with these amps Power output: 500 watts @ 8 ohms, 900 watts @ 4 ohms Dimensions: 63mm H x 250mm W x 265mm D Weight: 4lbs / 2kg It has a valve preamp (a standard 12AX7/ECC83) and a very powerful & flexible tone shaping section featuring shelving controls for bass and treble, a semi-parametric control for mid frequencies, and three pre-shape buttons consisting of bass boost, mid cut, and treble boost. This amp has served me faithfully for quite a number of years, and I’m only selling it because I fancied a change! See my other ad for the rare-as-hens-teeth factory rack-mount kit, as per the photo. **NOTE THAT THE RACK-MOUNT KIT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS SALE, BUT IS BEING SOLD SEPARATELY**
  5. @Steve Lawson's set was amazing. I saw him many many moons ago and he's come on stratospherically since then both in terms of gear (oh god, that Elrick ❤️ ) and 'composition'. His sonic landscapes are quite astonishing, complex and tasteful.
  6. I bought a magazine subscription and some lunch last of the big spenders eh? My favourite instruments were 1} a black Yamaha Nathan East signature 5, 2} a Strandberg on the Bass Direct stand, and 3} all the ACGs.
  7. Bloody typical... 7 miles away and everything's ground to a total stop on the M42. Two fire engines gone past. Haven't moved an inch for 20 mins. FFS.
  8. Yolanda Charles is going to be on the Sandberg stand on Saturday. Also hoping to bump into Becky Baldwin at some point. I'll do my best to talk her into joining BC, having another high profile pro player on board can only be a good thing.
  9. That's a very useful list, especially the who's-on-what-stand bit, thank you! I will be the bald bewildered-looking chap wandering around in a black/grey long sleeve Basschat t-shirt.
  10. Some of my favourite JG moments are on Fish's first solo album 'Vigil In A Wilderness Of Mirrors'. His playing across the entire album is a fretless masterclass, but this bit is especially wonderful. https://youtu.be/hqWdNSDc-uc?si=VoTlt78gA9WNDZ6y&t=145
  11. (Listen to the) Flower People - Spinal Tap
  12. Ooh you evil man. Brilliant
  13. I was looking for a band name quite a while back, and a quick google search revealed two others with that name. One was a UK band that had folded in 2012, the other was an active US band that are very much local to their area and do not appear to ever have left their home state, never mind toured. To be on the safe side and to avoid confusion, we modified it slightly so where their name is 'Name Of Band', ours was 'nameofband'.
  14. Yes, that's great news for us Saturday folks. I've got a bit of a drive but am hoping to get there good & early. And this is great news too. I have been itching to get my hands on one of your instruments for years. Security! Eject this man from the forum!
  15. Current gig rig (the amp is new and yet to be gigged). Line 6 G55 wireless, Trace Elliot TE-1200 amp, Barefaced Super 12T cab.
  16. Song To The Siren - This Mortal Coil
  17. Hands Off, She's Mynah - The Beat
  18. And because it weighs 1,970lbs.
  19. Done My 10p - I have no experience of Wilkinson humbuckers but I did have one of their split Ps and it was excellent. Good tone and a very hot output. If you were to go down the Wilks route, I would recommend sourcing it from a more reputable source. I don't trust AliExpress at all.
  20. Suburbia -Pet Shop Boys
  21. Hey Look, It's Me - Kraken
  22. Rich

    Rush.

    Possibly an unpopular opinion here, but Power Windows is my favourite Rush album. The trio of Manhattan Project / Marathon / Territories is still my favourite three song run from any album ever.
  23. Hey Fatty Bum Bum - Carl Malcolm
