[quote name='Huge Hands' timestamp='1492515283' post='3280814'] Martin, sorry to hear you're having to sell this and about your band. Hope you're ok. I believe I have played this (although there were a lot of lovely ACG's at our mini bass bash) and was mightily impressed with the feel and sound, especially on the low B. Have a "good luck with the sale" bump on me! [/quote] Cheers matey - I'm sure you did have a fondle of this amongst the many! Must have a beer soon

[quote name='ChazzJEUK' timestamp='1492462927' post='3280525'] Silly question, but still no trades? [/quote] Afraid not, sale only
-
April bump, back up for sale at £1200. My band's just fallen apart and there's very little prospect (or desire, frankly) to find another right now so I'm struggling to justify all my toys.

I love the ABM, it's awesome. Enjoy!

Ashdown RM 110 250w 10" Speaker Cab - 8ohm - **SOLD** :)
Merton replied to dodgnofski's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
This used to be mine, I asked Ashdown to make the special grille. Great cab, great guy to buy from. Nothing to lose -
Yep, Barefaced cab with a Ashdown amp = happy Merton. Brilliant pairing.
-
I acquired a One10 at the London Bass Show and absolutely love it. Going to get a second at some point and have a killer tiny rig methinks. Well, the cabs are tiny, the head is an ashdown ABM haha
-
I have the original cheap low output pickups from my Vester J and P basses lurking, will dig them out and send over
-
I need to mute your posts I think because I want an R400 more and more each time you say something about them!
-
My ABM head cost £140 including VAT last year, but it needed all the pots replaced, a couple of jack sockets and all the board interconnects as it has sat unused for almost 17 years and basically got dusty/tarnished.

[quote name='markstuk' timestamp='1491419922' post='3272943'] Did he not say he had switched them around ? Unless he switched all four at the same time? [/quote] I don't read things properly at the best of time but I've been drinking wine, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it
-
Switch the Send and Return - send goes out of the amp to the first pedal and return goes back in from the last
-
Sorry to hear that
-
Ouch. I played through one at the London Bass Show, was thoroughly underwhelmed I have to say. Which is good because Aguilar was an amp itch I was planning on scratching, now I can avoid it

[quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1490863302' post='3268548'] While we're on the subject of Living Colour, I recently snared a copy of one of the early US copies of Stain with the different guitar solos on it. I think its the fifth or sixth version of the album that I'd bought. [/quote] Oooh that's quite rare isn't it? Care to share any?
-
All his Instagram photos suggest he's still using old Trace gear - he has an ashdown B-Social and possibly a Retroglide but his gig rigs are trave unless supplies backline I believe I enjoyed the clip, his playing is amazing and his tone for such a light touch is amazing, I really have a lot to learn still
-
If you're replacing the drivers you can buy suitable impedances to wire it to 4 ohms so it makes no difference what's already in there
-
Sounds like a great amp I have to say. Given that you have (had?) an ABM as well I guess we have similar tonal goals
-
I used an OB1-300 last week at band practice, it was awesome with a tiny amount of saturation going on. When the overdrive "channel" was engaged more it was horrible though, IMO

*SOLD* Barefaced Two10 + Roqsolid Cover

Shitballs, blinked! -
[quote name='BassBunny' timestamp='1490121000' post='3262394'] I used one of these when I had a WT550. http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/rugged-case-with-foam-interior-n78gg You can probably get the same thing on eBay for less. [/quote] Ditto
-
[quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1489757152' post='3259529'] And one of each will still cost you less than just one of the Kala California basses. In fact, one of each of all four colours will cost you less than just one of the Kala California basses. Just think of the money you'd be saving. Wonder if Bass Centre would give me a commission? [/quote] You certainly deserve it, a heroic sales pitch right there
-
If it were me I'd get an Ashdown ABM, it'll cover those two bands with ease and pairs very very well with the SC in my opinion.
-
[quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1489749695' post='3259405'] And Merton, as they're different scale lengths, they're completely different basses, so you can buy one of each. [/quote] Yes indeed, hence my "argh" hehe
