  1. Looks like there’s a D2 floor pre coming out?
  2. I used to play this in a disco band and it was a blast to play. It really moves around and is pretty busy, plus the bass has that jump at the end of the first line of the chorus so it keeps you on your toes. I might try and chart it out.
  3. A most underrated band, even at the time. Spirit of Eden is also a great listen.
  4. Most folk are familiar with these cabs from Markbass. A well-balanced cab, without the harsh piezo tweeter that is featured in the smaller NY121, these are a very good single cab solution for most gigs. IMPEDANCE: 8 ohms SPEAKER SIZE: 1x12 in. BASS PORT: rear TWEETER: 1" compression driver with custom horn POWER HANDLING: 400W RMS (AES Standard) CROSSOVER FREQUENCY: 3.5 kHz FREQUENCY RESPONSE: 40 Hz to 20 kHz SENSITIVITY: 99 dB SPL WEIGHT: 33.07 lbs / 15 Kg WIDTH: 23.23 in. / 59 cm HEIGHT: 15.08 in. / 38.3 cm DEPTH: 17.13 in. / 43.5 cm This one is in very good condition. I have replaced the normal large logo with the smaller version in vertical configuration. I am firm on £250 collected from Hampshire. I can also deliver along the M4 corridor.
  5. Indeed. Forgive my flu-induced musings, I was confusing it with the new CTM200R.
  6. Yep, I play unlined fretless almost all the time. In fact I've played unlined for so long now I am completely disorientated on a lined! Here's my squeeze: a beautiful Franz Sirius from Germany.
  7. Having recently picked up an Evo 1 I can only imagine how good this is. The amp sims and effects in the Evo are very good, so this must be the same on steroids!
  8. When I worked in London I went there quite a bit, and the Wunjo guys were always good to deal with and often quite flexible on price too.
  9. I'd get a Markbass Minimark 802 and stick a versatile EQ pedal (perhaps the Source Audio programmable EQ or Boss EQ200) in front of it.
  10. Try squirting a bit of contact cleaner on the jack and then putting in into the socket a few times.
  11. My kids got me the rather wonderful Ronnie Lane six CD box set that came out earlier this year.
  12. They were only announced three weeks ago so I doubt stock will arrive anywhere until the new year.
  13. I have owned a lot of great basses over the years. Most notable (i.e. that I'd have back in a shot) were a Mk III Wal fretless 5, a Ken Smith BMT Elite 5, a 1970 fretless P, and a Veillette Archtop fretless. But the two Franz basses I own now are perfect in every way ❤️
  14. Heistercamp and Pinegrove are two excellent British strap makes that can sort you out.
  15. I have this incoming as a part-trade from a good friend of mine, but it's not really my thing so offering it up here. FEATURES Two-channel hybrid bass amplifier head Tube preamp, solid-state power amp; 800W at 4ohms Vintage and Overdrive preamp channels XLR line output, tuner output and effects loop (W) 56.81cm x (H) 21.9cm) x (D) 26.7cm Lightweight 17 lbs. (7.7kg) Condition is very good. There is some minor wear on the underside and bottom left corner. Includes original box and a custom lightweight case. Note that there's no footswitch included. £1039 RRP. Best street price in UK I've found is £845. I'm looking for £700 collected or delivered, or posted for an extra £20 fully insured.
