  1. Whoa, stop the bus! I’m letting G.A.S. get the better of my judgement here. I was downsizing from 35” scale to 34” in the belief it would alleviate the lack of mobility in my left arm! Kaspische? What a load of old madam, I used the Sandberg 35” today for two hours going through tunes, very little effect. So guys I’m keeping this 35” scale unlined fretless and putting a Delano Sonar 2 Pre in it…. Job done
  2. Guy’s, any trial, you will be amazed at the quality of construction of this “ One Off” bass. I was noodling with it the other day and it’s great, I’m downsizing moving to 34” scale. There absolutely no movement in the joints at all, it’s all solid.
  3. I have one and used it with good success on bass, as you can hear in the sample. Great value for money.
  4. You can PM me with offers, I’ll take a Warwick Gnome in PX, or something of that ilk.
  5. There’s info online that suggests they will run into 2 Ohms.
  6. As the man said, a good fist made out of a pigs ear. Well done. Replace Delusional you got a band, simples 🤷‍♂️
  7. “Doh!” A recent purchase from John (lownote) nothing wrong with the Head an impulse buy that is overkill for the foreseeable future (which might be non existent). It does the job in spades but it’s way over the top in power and tonal functionality (I have a Zoom B6 for the tones) so sadly I must realise the error of my ways and offer this monster back up into the community. I paid £360.00 and would like that back as postage (U.K. Mainland) will be included in the price reducing what I paid. Works a treat, slight surface marks on the top, I’ve tried to show them, commensurate with light use. Nothing that can interfere with its workings. Comes with a leather type laptop bag (perfect fit) for protection. Yes it’s a quick turnaround, but it is over the top, less tone options and less power would fit the bill. Only trades would be something like an EICH/TecAmp 500 depending and maybe (age dependant) cash your way. Otherwise sensible cash/PayPal (friends and family) offers PM Me. Thanks for looking. Specs and price courtesy Ashdowm WWW and snaps below: “RM-800-EVO II HEAD £699.00 For those playing larger stages seeking huge headroom, Ashdown tone and reliability without the weight the RM-800 EVO II is the solution. Weighing in at just 2.6KG(5.5lbs) but boasting 800 watts of power, class leading quality and features. The Rootmaster EVO II range also now comes equipped with an on-board headphone preamp to allow for silent practice, which doubles up these gig-ready amplifiers as handy practice devices. The pre amp includes a passive and active input jack socket for use with high and low output instruments, this sets a clear signal path to the input control enabling you to fine tune your input level using the trademark Ashdown VU meter. With the signal at its optimal level, you then hit the rich features designed enhance your tone, such as the shape button, 5-band EQ and on-board compressor. The drive control, as always delivers a delectable valve emulated over-drive, whilst the sub harmonic controls add further fatness to your tone - both can be foot-switched via an FS 2 foot-switch (sold separately). The Rootmaster 800 EVO II Head features a distinctive clear anodised alloy housing & chassis, an all new black anodised front panel and is the perfect choice for those who crave huge headroom in an ultra lightweight and portable package.” SPECIFICATION Power Output - 800 Watts Power Requirements - 115-230 Volts Speaker Outputs - 2 x Neutrik Speakon/Jack outputs Frequency Response - -3dB @ 17Hz und 30KHz High Instrument Input - Impedance 3.9m Ohms, input range 150mV Low Instrument Input - Impedance 10k Ohms, input range 300mV - 405V p-p Line Input - Impedance 22k Ohms, input level 0dBu nominal DI Output - 600 Ohm balanced, Level 0dBu nominal Tuner Output - Impedance 22k Ohms, Level 0dBu nominal Impedance - Minimum 4 Ohms Signal to noise- Better than 80dB (EQ flat) EQ - Bass +/-15dB @ 100Hz, Lo Mid +/-15dB @ 220Hz, Middle +/-15dB @ 660Hz, Hi Mid +/-15dB @ 1.6kHz, Treble +/-15dB @ 7kHz shelving Deep + Effects Send - Impedance 22k Ohm, Level 0dBu nominal Effects Return - Impedance 22k Ohms, Input Level 0dBu Nominal Distortion - Less than 0.5% THD H x W x D (mm) - 89 x 311 x 235 Weight (kg) - 2.5 Full monty here: https://ashdownmusic.com/products/rm-800-evo-ii-head Snaps: Slight marks.

  8. Well done that man, phew! I echo the sentiment of others, music and lunchtime legends don’t mix.
  9. I have read this thread and find it very informative having just acquired petexas’s B6. I was playing with it tonight and I am intoxicated with its flexibility and, on the face of it, ease of use. What a tone machine this is, I’m not sure my competence will allow me to utilise it’s full potential without a night school crash course. I’ve just touched the surface of a very deep pool and I’m looking at Oxygen purchase. I’ve gleaned more from this thread than the online information available. I just need to put the sounds in order of a ‘set list’. Phew, I’m excited🤭 Stop Press. I was faffing with this little gem earlier today and found some excellent patches they sound immense. It struck me, it’s a tone machine, all I need to do is adjust the volume on patches and put them in an order I can use live (whenever that may be).

  11. Whoa, greedy, yes always fancied them, I’ve used 3 x C4’s with the Magellan 800…..bowel movement inducing.
  12. Guy’s a flyweight powerhouse, delivered to you (UK Mainland) in the price. As mentioned a small combo would suffice as a part chop. Thanks for looking Did I mention that this will run 3 x 8 Ohm cabs, it runs into 2.67 Ohms. What’s not to like, imaging the GR and 3 x PJB compact 4’s wafting your kecks off…..
  13. This bass as good if not better than the Tanglewood 6ixer that I sold here months ago. Smooth neck, easy playability, it’s gorgeous in its entirety. The only addition that would improve it would be a Pre with additional tone controls. Apart from that….
  14. Some more info: 35” Scale, black hardware, passive Delano pick up vol/tone. Tuners are Gotoh. High grade Fretless ebony board. Abelone side dots, face as per the NS CRM upright bass, Scorpion inlay at 12th position. Body wood figured Maple black pin stripe, neck wood figured Maple black pinstripe. Top wood Maple Burr, waxed natural finish. String spacing at the nut is 9mm, at the bridge 15mm in line with my Warwick Thumb 4 I had at the time. There are no blemishes on this bass, the jointing is as solid as the day it was finished, it’s a smooth finish all round. Magnetically attached cover for electrickery.
  15. Not much to say, this unit does it’s job in spades. Worked well for me before I was fannying around with the Plethora. Reverb have it for £55.00 Peach Music at £60.00 list My price posted £35.00 Thanks for looking

  17. I had this and it’s fretted brother made for me a few years ago now. The build Quality is up there with the best, the neck is a five string version (wider obviously) of a 4 String Warwick Thumb I had at that time. Easy to play I also had the ‘note’ dots mimic the array the the NS uprights have, it looks good. And because I’m a Scorpio I had the Symbol added to the 12th (fret) note. It came with a Piezo bridge pickup which I removed and replaced with a bridge whose name I will append when I check it out, and a Delano XTENDER 5 HE, but kept the passive status. It comes with a shaped hard-case. This is a dream to play, the NT construction is sublime as is the overall finish, it’s a lovely bass, 35” Scale which is a Divil for me with my left arms lack of mobility. Sorry to see it go but with no band no prospects I’m sticking with the Streamline for now, just in case. Any trial at my Leicester shed, delivery possible within 75 miles or so. No trades as such but a small combo might be the exception. Thanks for looking I will post the additional information tomorrow, nut width, bridge width, string space at both and a copy of the spec sheet.
  18. Nano Pedal Board Dimensions: 14 in x 5.5 in x 1.4 in (35.5 cm x 14 cm x 3.5 cm) Weight: .7 lbs (0.3 kg)
  19. £475.00, delivered. Small combo in PX could be a consideration as could a Zoom B6 or HX Stomp. 🙄
