    Amazing cabs. The perfect balance between power, punch and portability.
  2. franzbassist
    Straight swap for my Franz Dave?

    Just the PSU left now. No box but I will include a mains plug USB adaptor plus a short micro USB cable to charge the PSU with. Here we have a used but not abused Rockboard Tres 3.0 pedalboard setup that, with the addition of the power supply and patchbay, means you are set up and ready to go. No need for mains power to the board, you just charge the power supply before the gig and you can enjoy hum-free pedals all night! I've never had any issues with this setup. The battery can do a two set gig with no issue. New, all of this would have been £200, so I think £125 posted is fair. Thanks for looking EDIT: Forgot to add proof of ownership to the pictures, but hopefully pages and pages of feedback (see link in signature) will confirm I am a legit seller!

    Oh my, Stealthy Status. A lovely example Dave.

    I think I posted the very same clip a while back with the very same reaction. It really is very good.

    And sold
  7. franzbassist
    I will entertain sensible offers.

    This will shortly be going up as a commission sale, so if you are interested please do get in touch with me soon.

    Okay, so yes, a new nut may well be in order. You could wrap fine gauge sandpaper around each string and then run them up and down the nut slots to file open the existing nut (put a little pen mark right at the bottom of each slot so you don't take it lower!), but I appreciate you may not be comfortable with that!
  10. franzbassist
    Are you going to a much heavier gauge? You may not need to make any changes if it's just the next gauge up. As @bassbiscuits says, you may need to adjust the intonation and relief, but you may not! Also, I've never had to drill out a strap lock hole to allow for a bigger screw (and I have fitted Dunlop locks to loads of basses); I just put a little bit of wax on the new screw and they always go in easily enough. As to cost, these are the kind of tweaks I've made on my basses for years, so I'm afraid I have no idea. Sorry

    A smooth as usual sale to Martin. Great comms, instant payment, you know the drill

    I have one of these and they are rock solid reliable. This is a very good price for a simple yet effective piece of kit.
  13. franzbassist
    Thanks Mick. Yes, it's an odd one. I can only put it down to the brand being so small and "boutique".

    Just chipping in to say this is a great cab. A real one cab does it all solution for small and medium sized venues. And Freddie is a most excellent person to deal with too

    I did a very similar gig. Rain was so heavy it was pooling in the canopy right over the PA mixer and amps 🥶
  16. franzbassist
    Well, it came across as sarcastic, but I stand corrected.
  17. franzbassist
    I know you set relief with a capo. The two sentences in my post are separate statements; the first sentence refers to the action, the second to the relief. Just sayin...
  18. franzbassist
    I've been there. You have a beautiful castle in the town if I remember correctly.
  19. franzbassist
    And you My uncle was originally from Ystad. Where are you based?
  20. franzbassist
    Hej! Välkommen till basschat My aunt and uncle lived in Höör in Skåne for many years. We had lots of great winter and summer holidays there. Beautiful part of the country and lovely people. FB

    I had Strings Direct put together a custom "balanced tension" set of D'Addario XL nickel roundwounds for me and they are great: 42, 55, 75, 100, 135. No issues with the B at all.
  22. franzbassist
    I had a Sire P8 that was a terrific bass. Everything about it was top notch, and I had no concern at all with the B string. But... I sat in Andertons and tried six basses of the same spec when I bought it, and they were all very different. Yes they had the same core tone, but two weighed more than a small planet and two had dodgy electrics. I don't remember the B strings being particularly bad, so that's a plus. The one I bought was a superb bass and was the perfect combination of playability, weight, tone and QC being spot on. The others, much less so...
  23. franzbassist
    Yes I will be selling the whole board. Listings to follow!
  24. franzbassist
    For bridges like this, threadlock is your very good friend...

    I didn't know any details, but I know Lee is a good person so happy to help. Hope circumstances improve soon, whatever they are.
