    Here's my Marcus Limited in situ at a gig. Does it really look that bad? And anyway, it sounds fantastic!

    Enrico Pasini at Wood&Tronics makes some very good stuff. He's in Staranzano in the NE corner of the country

    I know he's had a fair few endorsements over the years......

    No it's just a generic graph off Google to show the concept of how the band pass works. Should have made that clearer I guess!

    I have a Little Marcus 800 and love it. The five band EQ is superb, and the VLE is pretty much the same as the one found on the Litte Mark range (slightly different EQ points). The Millerizer function is a band pass filter than only passes frequencies between 5 and 12kHz. I find it to be very musical: it just adds a nice treble sheen to the sound IMO. That said, if I had the choice of a band pass filter or the para eq on the new version of the Marcus, I would choose the latter in a heartbeat.

    This +1

    I doubt very much that is "roadworn". It looks like a proper bit of damage.

    Smooth preamp sale to Richard. All good here
  9. franzbassist
    This is a crazy good deal.

    Try removing and refitting the offending string, making sure it's well seated in the bridge, saddle and nut. If that doesn't sort it try a different set of strings to see if that cures the problem.

Yours for £160 posted or £150 collected.

    Not that simple, especially if you're singing as well. My nomination is "Don't break my heart again" by Whitesnake.

    That looks fab. If someone would buy my (8lb) Franz PJ I’d have this off you in a heartbeat!

    Some dowel rods will clean that right up.....

    I'd say it's possibly less about the watts and more about the amount of air you're moving. I have no personal experience of those cabs, but the C8 should be a considerable step up from the C4.

    What sort of trades are you looking for?
  19. franzbassist
    Postage isn't an issue.

    Found one in Germany here.
  21. franzbassist
    I never found one, and believe me I scoured the internet to find one!
  22. franzbassist
    What other instruments are involved? There are very few, if any, ABGs that will really cut it.

    Try standard gauge (760T) white nylon flats by La Bella. Meaty to dig in on, a very nice top end, and low tension too. Some people find them too floppy, but if it's between that and regular steel core flats there's no contest for me.

    I still remember the first time I listened to a Deep Purple LP. It was "Machine Head", the year was 1978 and I was twelve. I was just blown away by the power and energy of it. Happy, simpler days.
