  1. Cute rig. That image of the girl looks photoshopped to me....
  2. Now £230 Excellent two channel floor preamp with all the details here. Less than a year old and very light use. Comes with original box, manual, packaging and PSU. They are £350 new: I would like £230 posted in the UK. Cheers Gareth
  3. I sold Loz a Mono gig bag. Great comms, immediate payment, thoroughly decent chap.
  4. I wouldn't say they were particularly thumpy. The La Bella white nylons in particular have a very nice bright top end (jump to 4.30 in this video).
  5. How about La Bella nylon flats? Lovely medium-low tension and the standard gauge set sound full and fat.
  6. Apparently they were developed for Chicago Music Exchange by La Bella. Pure nickel roundwound wrap on a hex core. No silks at either end. Lots of different gauges and scale lengths. Tension I would say is medium-high. Tone is pure nickel: warm, with sweet highs Feel is wonderful, they are so smooth your fingers fly over them with much less squeak.
  7. Anyone else digging these? I absolutely love them.
  8. I’m having a big string clearout. First up, a new set of: La Bella White Nylon Super Long flats - £55 BNIB, these are the very rare super long 40" white nylon flats. Not to be confused with the 38" extra long sets that are also out there 50/65/85/105/135 Followed by some lightly used sets that haven't had much use, in fact some have been put on and taken straight off! D’Addario "Chromes" flats ECB8145-100 - £22 Removed from a brand new bass. Silks frayed in places. Cut for 2 over 2 headstock 37” long scale. 45/65/80/100 Newtone Diamond nickel roundwounds - £22 Low tension nickel plated steel Lightly used. Cut for 3 over 2 headstock 38.5” long 55/70/90/110/135 Fodera nickel roundwounds - £22 Nickel plated steel Lightly used. Cut for 3 over 2 headstock 37” long 45/65/85/105/130 All prices include 2nd Class Recorded Delivery in the UK.
  9. Try Pinegrove. They are good guys.
  10. Now £225 collected or £250 posted.
  11. The main house bass in my son's school band is a Cort. I took it home to give it a set up and a service a few weeks ago and was blown away by how good it was. These look great. I think Bass The World have reviewed a Cort fan fret too?
  12. I thought the same initially, but I'm used to it now
  13. I missed this post, sorry! They sound fantastic, I love the tension and super smooth feel, but they are quieter when played acoustically.
  14. I think it's a no. I tried to put a laptop box in that was about the same size as a Helix and it's just too big
  15. Hi Ian The walls of the bag are soft and certainly flex, so yes it does "give". I would imagine if you took the controller bag out it may even go in at a slight diagonal. I'll check when I get home tonight 👍 Cheers Gareth
  16. I'm changing around how I store my basses at home, so I am selling a black Mono Vertigo. Condition is excellent. Hardly taken outside really. Pictures will follow tonight. Looking at recent sale prices here on BC, £125 posted in the UK looks right. Thanks for looking Gareth
  17. Thanks guys, yes I have been looking at Gator, Magma and UDG too. I was thinking of getting the Gator G-Club Control at £39, but then I remembered I have this! And it's perfect!
  18. Now that is a good shout, especially as I forgot I already have one I’m not using!!!!! Edit: Takes all I wanted to put in it and more. Perfect.
  19. I bought this bag last week so it is pretty much brand new. Fantastic bag with lots of storage and options, just not for me. All the detail is here. £70 new. I'd like £60 posted.
