I've had these a while, using them in various amps with valve preamp stages, but my move away from such amps means they are now surplus: Mullard ECC83 - code B6B3 means made in Blackburn, third week of February in either 1956, 1966 or 1976 = £50 Mullard ECC83 - (code backward3)91 means made in Chelmsford for Mullard by Marconi, but not sure how to date the rest = £50 Mullard ECC81 - no code that I can see = £25 Caveat Emptor: I have tested them in my Demeter amp and they are all working fine at time of writing, but as always with old valves be aware they can fail at any time. Please do bear that in mind before you buy.-

I sold a couple of gig bags to Colin and the deal was as smooth as a set of well worn in flats 👍
-
Some nice upgrades for your Dingwall bass. They were fitted to a bass very briefly. Knobs - £100 new, these are £90 posted Scratchplate (NG or Combustion 3/5) £45 new, £40 posted A little saving on new

Ripe for a good restoration I'd say. New nut, get it fretted again, tidy the bridge up. Could look really good.
-
That is weird and cool at the same time.

Fitted the Fret Nation six position rotary switch to my Dingwall today and WOW what a difference it makes! It was fiddly to do, but well worth it.

Do you multiple cabs from the same company, what do you have & why?
franzbassist replied to jazzyvee's topic in Amps and Cabs
Two cabs from the German maker FMC here. A compact 8ohm 112UL for rehearsals and small gigs, and a more powerful 4ohm 1210UL for big stuff. -
And sold!

A pair of very nice Gator gig bags. They are used but certainly not abused, and there are no rips or stains anywhere. I have added extra foam to the detachable cushions go give even more protection. £80 new, I'm looking for £50 each posted in the UK, or £90 if you take both
-
I almost always run my amps flat and tweak on the bass, normally just by panning between the pickups, so not an issue.
-
I actually use the three preset channels rather than the "front panel". They are all set the same apart from the combination of effects used, ensuring gain and compression remain constant.
-
Shameless plug: This fits it perfectly.
-
My work is done 👍🏻
-
Wow that’s some high tension!
-
What did you go for? I looked at the Dingwall strings on my NG and this is what the calculator came out with.
-
Sorry, this body shape is just as bad as the others IMO. Can’t fault the craftsmanship though.
-
Another 34.5" custom bass! Check out the D'Addario string tension calculator. It really helps work out what gauges you need according to scale and tuning.
-
Glad to be of help. They are on a 34.5" scale custom bass from Germany. Funnily enough I have since put together a custom set of 42/55/75/100/135 D'Addario singles for another bass, and they are even better!
-
Just tested and confirm global EQ does indeed work on all settings.
-
I believe so yes. My MS3 had a similar global EQ and that definitely worked on all the effects presets.
-
I'd forgotten about that. Good call.

I’m out. Golf club dinner dance ❤️

Wal were still based in Chairborough Road in 1988, rather than Leigh Court, so maybe it went in for a service at some point once Pete moved operations and a new sticker was applied?
