  1. Just so's you all know, Reece is a good guy, friend of mine from school daze back in the 90s Nice bass man, I never saw this in the flesh...
  2. How much do you reckon spostage would be? Tempted
  3. The Vintage is about as sensitive as they come. 300W will be perfect for it
  4. [quote name='Squib' post='886417' date='Jul 5 2010, 04:14 PM']Sorry , just posted up the prices - fairly essential when trying to sell something eh ??[/quote] Might be easier putting them in this thread rather than a new one tough Good luck with the sale
  5. If I win th elottery on Wednesday I'm going to get me exactly the same cab. I love my Vintage to bits so am really keen to have a smaller version (hehe) for the smaller gigs
  6. And a photo put of the clamps:
  7. Truss rod and 2 graphite rods now in - truss rod covered by a walnut strip and the graphite rods by maple strips: All planed and ready for the fingerboard
  8. Best bass combo i've ever played thru, let alone owned. Hmm, i wonder if Nic would notice..! Good luck dude. Oh, another thing, Mr Pablo is a fine gent to deal with
  9. [quote name='hookys6stringbass' post='885009' date='Jul 3 2010, 07:23 PM']Just got my spyder back from Ashdown so i've not had a chance to experiment with settings yet. Have you discovered any nifty settings since you got yours?[/quote] Back from Ashdown?? What happened?!

    [quote name='bassmeg' post='884293' date='Jul 2 2010, 08:12 PM']When dealing with people like Merton, it puts your trust back into human nature. I hope the amp still works?![/quote] Cheers Chris, ditto The amp is still perfect, hasn't put a foot wrong. Actually, it has. It was too powerful for our outdoor gig last week so it tripped the power everytime I hit a bottom E Hehe
  11. [quote name='Clarky' post='883422' date='Jul 1 2010, 09:15 PM']I just bought one of these tonight and can attest how amazingly light these cabs are as well as great sounding. Have a bump on me[/quote] Good work
  12. Retroactive for me. Wonderful bass And you missed out the glorious Groove, Rich!! One at the mo but still keeping an eye out for a 5er after stupidly selling the last one I had!
  13. [quote name='StevieD_FenderP2009' post='877897' date='Jun 26 2010, 01:33 AM']Can this be used without a power amp or does it have to have a power amp with it?[/quote] Needs a power amp if you want to drive any speakers
  14. Cheers fella! No hurry, I'm flexible around what you guys need
  15. [quote name='mr pablo' post='876129' date='Jun 24 2010, 08:57 AM']here's my latest : trace elliot v-type 1x15 combo + trace elliot 2103h 2x10 cab (with eminince beta 10's in it think the combo has had a speaker upgrade as well at some point) = nice and for good measure theres one of my ole ibby n hofner and my pedalboard as well [attachment=52899:IMAG0022.jpg] [attachment=52900:IMAG0020.jpg] [attachment=52901:IMAG0021.jpg] [attachment=52902:IMAG0024.jpg][/quote] Epic win. The V-Type has an Eminence Beta 15, th e2x10 Eminence Beta 10s. All my old gear!! Bet it soundsmint together - I never used the 2x10 with the V-Type.
  16. [quote name='thinman' post='874789' date='Jun 22 2010, 08:12 PM']Have finally graduated onto playing "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick" but the band's a bit stuck on the chorus. Over the "Hit me with your rhythm stick..." line on the bass it's F, G and then....... I think it may be an A but our guitarist thinks it's Ab. Does anyone know what the guitar chords are too? Can't find anything on the net and find it hard to ork out from the record.[/quote] Definitely A. The first two times. Then F, G, Ab, A, Bb, A, Ab, G, Bb, C
  17. Ye Olde Mert Rigge Nice! My stuff has been withdrawn I'm afraid, the amp deal I was chasing fell apart
  18. [quote name='Musicman20' post='872057' date='Jun 19 2010, 07:39 PM']Sounds great![/quote] How do you know? It's not been built yet. Hehe. I want to do something similar one day, just have zero time available...
  19. [quote name='mr pablo' post='870837' date='Jun 18 2010, 02:51 PM']Bump for a top bloke, bought a few bits from mert over the years and I'd have the pre as well if I didnt have a v-type combo already [/quote] Cheers man! How you finding the V-Type combo? I miss it... (Did you buy it from delberthot? If so it's my old one ) The V-Type preamp has been (provisionally, obviously) spoken for, if this all happens. now I just need to know if the Nemesis would shift, as without that having any takers the whole plan goes up in smoke Everyone will know the score by Wednesday
  20. Hello! [b][size=3]ALL GONE NOW, CHEERS TO GOAROUND AND CK[/size][/b] I have just agreed to buy wayne58's Eden WT550 (oooh yeah!) so all this has to go to fund it. V-Type pre, I'm afraid, has already been earmarked for Platypus from my previous feeler and will be off in the next day or two. [b]Eden Nemesis NA650 - SOLD[/b] 650W@ 2 ohm, 440W @ 4 ohms, 280W @ 8 ohms A cracking amp, really versatile and LOUD. Bought on here in Jan for £225 in a rack case, selling for £225 as well, still in its rackcase. Loads of amp for the money, a great way into the Eden world, I'm just lucky to have grabbed myself the amp I've always fancied in their range GONE [b]Peavey DPC750 power amp - SOLD PENDING PAYMENT[/b] Around 500W at 4 ohm per channel, or around 750W at 8 ohm bridged. I believe this was Peavey's first foray into SMPS power amps. It's great, really good in fact. Loud, punch-in-the-guts power with enough headroom and transient power to give you everything you need. I have only had it a few months and it's been a joy to use but sadly EVERYTHING has to go to fund the WT550 and I really don't need two rigs. I will sell with a 2U rackbag (brand new from the Flightcase Warehouse) for £160 or it's yours without the bag for £140 which is what I paid I think. More pics to follow but again apologies for pinching the previous FS pics from Guyl: [attachment=57711:DPC1.JPG] [attachment=57712:DPC2.JPG] [attachment=57713:DPC3.JPG] Mert
  21. PM'd, I be free and know most of that set inside out
  22. [quote name='mikhay77' post='868311' date='Jun 15 2010, 07:34 PM']I think its a mk5 or mk6 but I will be corrected[/quote] The clue is in the name "SM" - it's the series after the Series 6 range, what many feel is the last great Trace I wonder if Nic would notice it....
  23. [quote name='dood' post='868373' date='Jun 15 2010, 08:27 PM']Excellent, can't wait to see some Fan Fret Porn!![/quote] +1 - looks like you did beat us in the end!! Can't wait to see this one, roll on Friday
  24. Short answer: It'll be fine Long answer: THe Harkte and Ashdown heads both work with a min load of 4 ohms. Both your cabs are 8 ohms, so wired in parallel (which they will be) will give you the 4 ohm minimum.
