  1. [quote name='HazBeen' timestamp='1452934788' post='2954784'] Yum [/quote] No kidding. The 6" driver in these do the business.
  2. [quote name='dood' timestamp='1452842275' post='2953916'] The BB2 is only second to a nuns habit when it comes to being untainted. [/quote] Early contender for BC Quote of the Year right there
  3. Here are my two, a 2013 Recurve "Graft" fretted 5, mahogany over alder, 3 piece 33" scale maple neck, passive, and a 2015 Recurve "Standard" fretless 5, white limba, 3 piece ash/bubinga neck, P-Retro EQ. Totally blown away by how good these basses are. The playability is just second to none. I think this shows why they are called Recurve...
  4. The new home page for Tecamp now looks like this, with the statement "THE LATEST INNOVATIONS ARE ON THEIR WAY TO YOU"
  5. I bought Ian's ACG. He was very patient while I took some time to get the cash together, answered my numerous questions about the bass in detail and with great patience, and it was sent with packaging that was top notch. We've transacted before, and I suspect we'll transact again. He's a Basschat legend
  6. Have you tried adjusting the (basic) bridge too? One possibility would be to fit an aftermarket pickup, such as the Fralin, which i believe does have staggered pole pieces.
  7. [quote name='Bigwan' timestamp='1452107094' post='2946536'] As far as I'm aware you can't pick up an almost new Ampeg second hand for £300 like you could have with an Ashdown here last week... Keep an eye on the classifieds! [/quote] The one on here was an amp I ordered from Ashdown's UK Custom Shop to use specifically for a recording project, so it was made with lower gain valves to keep it cleaner. Sadly, the project was cancelled so I moved it on before ever really using it. It's now on sale at [url="http://www.bassgear.co.uk/product/ashdown-ctm-30/"]Bass Gear[/url]. It's less than two months old and in mint condition, if that's of interest?
  8. Karl is a Basschat legend, and given how much gear we both go through I'm amazed it's taken us so long to do a deal! Anyway, he bought a pair of TKS cabs off me and was a pleasure to deal with all the way. Great comms and quick payment. I recommend him most highly. Cheers Karl
  9. [url="http://theguitarrepairworkshop.com/virtuoso-polish/"]Virtuoso polish[/url] - expensive but superb. A little goes a long way too.
  10. GBBL had [url="http://greatbritishbasslounge.com/product/sandberg-forty-eight/"]one[/url], but it's now sold...
  11. I contributed to the TB thread as I'd just picked up a Bonafide amp, which is brill btw. I was talking to Thomas Eich just before Christmas, so this is very recent, but I can't believe the Bona situation killed the company? My guess is they are being bought out, based on [url="http://tecampusa.com/page/4-about-us"]this[/url]
  12. Interesting message on the Tecamp homepage this morning! [i]Important notice about my involvement with TecAmp and THC Amplification[/i] [i]Due to irreconcilable issues I like to announce that I am no longer associated with neither company I founded TecAmp and THC Amplification. No further TecAmp/THC product will be build or supported under my supervision and I have nothing to do with both companies no more. I will make a statement and a new announcement soon.[/i] [i]Thomas Eich, 01-01-2016[/i]
  13. I sold Si some George L cables and jacks. The deal was as smooth as you like and he's a pleasure to deal with.
  14. Price drop, prices now include 48 hour postage service with cabs in decent boxes.
  15. [quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1451139891' post='2938511'] I can see you regretting it if you let these go, Gareth! [/quote] You may be right Graeme. I love these cabs. They weigh nothing, go plenty loud enough, and sit really well in the band mix with a nice bit of grunt to keep everyone happy.
  16. Greetings I work at Portsmouth Uni, having escaped 10 years of commuting in to London. Have fun here Gareth
