  1. I bought a tuner and Pedaltrain from Jon. He was very patient with me while I chopped and changed my mind. Smooth deal
  2. I bought a pedal off Dan. Smoooooth deal. Happy to recommend.
  3. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Just bought this used through BC, but having splurged on a few pedals lately I need to save some space on the bigger board I now need![/font][/color] [url="http://artecsound.com/effect/se-ptn.htm"][b]ARTEC BIG DOTS[/b][/url] Used but in good overall condition. Please note that the single central dot light, when you're in tune, doesn't work, but the sharp and flat ones either side do, as do the large letter LEDs below, are fine. True Bypass.

  4. Just bought this used through BC but having splurged on a few pedals lately I need a bigger board! 14 in x 5.5 in Velcro attached to the front, some minor marks from gaffa tape on the back. Includes case, but the straps are missing. Hopefully Jon won't mind me pinching his picture [b]Firm on £28 posted[/b]
  5. [quote name='thegummy' timestamp='1496835964' post='3314157'] I checked in the pockets and they were there! I feel so silly but happy that I don't have to buy anything. Cheers mate for pointing that out [/quote] My work is done [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?&app=forums&module=extras&section=legends#"][/url]
  6. [quote name='Al Krow' timestamp='1496770811' post='3313775'] @walbassist. What difference is the presence of the 5" speakers adding to your overall sound? [/quote] So the new rig had a good workout on Saturday night: a beer festival in a college canteen (i.e. a long, bright space with a low ceiling). Volume: amp on about 9pm. Tons of volume on tap, and the headroom running at 1k was wonderful, with plenty in the setup to let the sound breathe. EQ: set totally flat. It really didn't need any adjustment at all. We were set up on a low hollow temporary stage, so I was worried the cabs sat flat on the stage might mean the sound was too boomy, but it wasn't at all. I was playing my fretless and an upright, switching between them using a Providence Dual Bass Station, also set flat. The tone out of each was, as I've said before, very true to their inherent tone. I think if anything the 5" drivers add some extra presence in the mids at higher volumes, but not in a harsh or nasal way. In fact same for the bass, which was big without being boomy. I tamed the top end of my fretless using the tone control on the bass, but only a touch. Even though the cabs were firing at my legs I had no problem hearing myself, so dispersion was good - again a benefit of the 5" I suspect. I'm really delighted with the setup. I'm also especially glad I bought both the combo and the cab before the prices went up! They aren't the lightest cabs out there these days, but the tone more than makes up for their being in the mid-range of cab weights.
  7. I thought this was a thread about cricket
  8. If the bass was new I'm surprised there are no straps included. Have you checked inside all the pockets?
  9. I bought a PSU from Jon. Completely pain free transaction with good comms and prompt delivery. Happy to deal with him again
  10. Wow, what a rig. I bet that sounds glorious.
  11. Did you sell the big dots tuner Higgie?
  12. Yes please
  13. [quote name='CameronJ' timestamp='1496592362' post='3312526'] Any reason why you haven't stacked them? Other than the reduction in surface area for cold beverages of course [/quote] They sounded fine side by side, so I didn't think it was needed.
  14. Amazing rig. Continues to delight.
  15. I sold a gig bag to Sean. It was a simple transaction but his comms were perfect and payment was made in good time. I would happily transact with him again.
  16. [quote name='Mykesbass' timestamp='1496407452' post='3311171'] Not sure, but I know they only had limited UK distribution with Bass Gear who stopped stocking them despite Phil using one himself. [/quote] [url="https://www.soundunlimited.co.uk/categories/amplifiers/carvin"]Sound Unlimited[/url] are their UK dealer now.
  17. Thanks, that's what I thought but always good to get a second opinion.
  18. So, at gigs where I double up I use a Providence Dual Bass Station to switch between my upright and electric, with the signal from the DBS going to my amp. I also use a chorus on the electric and a compressor on the upright, but should they go before or after the DBS?
  19. I sold a gig bag to Neil. Very smooth deal and I'd be more than happy to deal with him again
  20. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?&app=forums&module=extras&section=legends#"][/url]
  21. How about [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Mark_Bass_121_Alain_Caron_Lite_combo.html"]this[/url]?
  22. I'll take the one spot and daisy chains please

    I sold a bag to Tony. A simple, straightforward transaction with good comms and lots of BC love all round. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again.
  24. Taking shape Chestnut top being glued on tomorrow. Matching headstock
  25. [quote name='Jecklin' timestamp='1496226982' post='3309656'] Brilliant, thank you. Apologies I missed your thread. I presume you've used it with your Markbass Traveler 123 cab? That's a bit more of a serious beast than I'll be using (my dream cab is a MArkbass NY 4x6, but budget dictates otherwise.) Cheers Thomas [/quote] Hi Thomas A pleasure to help. Yes, the Nano into the Traveler 123 is top notch. Amazing cab, and the volume it puts out at 8 ohms is more than enough for me Cheers gareth
