    P-Retro fitted Squier Matt Freeman A really nice bass, quite remarkable what they can put out for under £400 these days. The P-Retro is awesome, real "P bass on steriods"!

    Hello all I have one of these straps for sale in BLACK. It's the [b]medium length [/b]version, adjustable from 123 cm to 153 cm. It's really nice and in very good condition; good, strong and thick leather. The only thing I need to point out is I drilled a small extra hole, for a straplock, on the bridge end of the strap. Harvest say: [i]This strap for heavy instruments out of buffalo leather comes with the classic length adjustment. Made with a nice vintage pull up finish and produced with decorative offwhite seams. The strap is made out of two layer of full grain leather, together these are about 3 to 3.6 mm thick. Full grain leather is very strong and durable. The strap's width is 8.5 cm. It is the perfect width for holding the bass comfortably over a longer period of time.[/i] 20 euros plus postage new, I'd like [b]£10 plus post[/b]. Cheers Gareth

    [quote name='Bigwan' post='1294623' date='Jul 6 2011, 12:27 PM']I've been eyeing the LB stuff for a while... How loud is 'very loud'? Nice setup btw![/quote] Well, clearly it's a subjective term, but to me it is plenty loud enough for my two bands, and one of them is a Jam/Weller tribute band so quite, er, loud.

    Thanks Raggy [quote name='BassBod' post='1294514' date='Jul 6 2011, 11:21 AM']So you've sold the Ken Smith and the Wal then?[/quote] Yes Dunc, the Smith and Wal went some time ago. I think my uber boutique bass days are past me now, shame it cost me so much to realise it! It's just the Veillette fretless (awesome), BSX upright (awesome), and the P bass now. I may get a small lightweight digital head as well, but this seems to be doing it for me just now.

    Here's my latest setup. Ashdown UK-made all-tube head with matching LB212 cab, plus a P-Retro fitted Squier Matt Freeman. It's a killer setup. The amp goes very loud, and the bass was good even before the P-Retro went in. Cheers Gareth

    I have had a UK-made LB30 and LB212 cab for two weeks now. Absolutely love it and am astonished at how loud it can get. One word: TONE

    I picked one of these basses up from The Gallery a couple of weeks ago to use in the Jam/Weller band I joined a few months back. I have to say, I am [i]really[/i] impressed with it. It's very well put together, with excellent fit and finish. The weight is good (just a shade under 10lbs) with no neck dive, no dead spots. The neck is chunky but fast. It sounds great passive, but I had Alex put a P Retro in it anyway, and it is an absolute tone monster. Amazing what you can get for under £400 these days... Gareth

    Well, I used my LB30 head and LB212 cab at rehearsal for the first time; one word: Wow. With my P-Retro'd Squier Matt Freeman in active mode into the "High" input, I only had the volume at 9 o'clock and it sounded huge. Seriously happy with the amp and cab. I had been tempted to get two of the VS212, 8 ohm versions of esentially the same cab, but I'm not sure I'll need to move much more air than this. And all from a 30 watt amp. Incredible...

    Sold a cab to Brian. Top gent with fast payment and great communication. Recommended.

    Bought Luke's Bassbone (my third, will I ever learn?). Great communication and a pleasure to deal with.

    The Phil Jones [url="http://www.philjonespuresound.com/products/?id=125"]PB300[/url] would also do this job very well.

    These really are the biz. I regret selling mine as it gave the most righteous tone.
