[size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]Squier Vintage Modified Precision bass TB.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]This is basically the Squier version of the ’72 telebass with the big walloping Seth Lover humbucker right by the neck (Fender branded BTW).[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]These come in sunburst with black scratchplate but I got our very own Bass Doc to knock me up a 3ply white plate to make the bass look more authentic. I also added period correct telebass/’51 style bridge cover, tug bar (in correct ‘under G string position) and Fender flatwound (9050CL’s) strings before giving it a basic set-up.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]No marks, dings, knocks etc at all and plays like a dream. The satin neck is nice and quick and there aren’t any buzzes or choked notes. The output is huge and I sometimes plug into the Active input on my SVT to tame it a little. Ive not lowered the pup fully so guess that could be done too.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]I will supply the original black scratchplate as well as the white one. I dont have a hardcase (I can probably dig a gig bag out from somewhere).[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]I had one of these with the exact same mods a few years back and sold it on here. Regretted it, bought another, recreated the same look….then fell head over heals for a black Jack Casady Epi bass hence the sale.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]Id really like collection in view of no hardcase but I can package up the bass safely and offer couriered delivery for £20. If you are localish I can deliver myself.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]Im after £175 + Postage. Work blocks hosting sites so I can email any interested BCers. This bass really is immaculate.[/color][/font][/size] -

Ashdown MAG 300 115 combo & 115 Extension Cab *SOLD*
Pow_22 posted a topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
[size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000]Early Ashdown MAG 300 1x15 combo. Carpet covered and made in [/color][/font][/size][font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000][size=4]UK[/size][/color][/size][/font][size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000].[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000]Bought this to save me lugging my SVT up two flights of stairs and was really impressed with it. Ive had Ashdown stuff before and whilst ive always loved the tone I always felt they just didn’t put out the volume they claimed – not with this one tho![/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000]With my flats loaded P bass it had a nice thick and full sound. I easily eliminated my sometimes brittle top end Flats and Pick player) with a tiny bit of the Sub Harmonic feature. It has done me proud for a cheapish Gumtree buy.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000]I also have a MAG 1x15 Deep extension cab (not [/color][/font][/size][font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000][size=4]UK[/size][/color][/size][/font][size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000] made) that I have paired with it for even more volume and bottom end thump. Covering on this is slightly more pulled but certainly not ‘road worn’ or owt.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000]Its in good working condition but has one or two small pulls on the carpet covering. The handle has also started to perish but still works fully and Ashdown now sell replacements on their site for about £6.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000]Collection only from [/color][/font][/size][font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000][size=4]Bolton[/size][/color][/size][/font][size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000] on this or could deliver within reasonable distance (just ask, i travel a bit so you never know).[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000]Once I find a picture hosting site that isn’t blocked by work ill upload pics. Can email in meantime if needed[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=Times New Roman][color=#000000]£120 for the combo or £180 for combo and cab?[/color][/font][/size] -
FUUUUUUUUUUCK! GAS well and truely returned. If that was cherry red id have clicked buy already. Must resist......

SOLD: British Ashdown ABM300 head + USA made cover :SOLD

Do the 300's have a pre-amp valve like the 500's? -
[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1368373633' post='2076225'] To be honest, since I used an Ampeg rig back in the day I've been trying to replicate 'that' sound. Various sims and pedals can get you very close, but there's nothing like the visceral experience of a real fridge behind you. I've kind of accepted that if I want that sound again the only way to get it is to buy (and haul) another Ampeg rig. [/quote] This. Plain and simple

I had one of these a while back and loved the feel and tone. However the one major thing that led me to sell it was the placement of the pickup. To say it didnt line up with the strings was an understatement! The E string was so far off the pole peice that the note kind of 'bloomed' - as in the initial pluck didnt register but then a millisecond of so after the note bloomed out. Question is do other players of this bass have this or did i just get a dog?

Ampeg SVT on top of an Ampeg 8x10

[font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Orange Crush 50w BXT Bass combo. Bought off here just last week but we have since moved to our own rehearsal space so I get to store and use my SVT now rather than have to lug it to each rehearsal. As such this is up for sale.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]One small dint on the front of the combo at the top and one of the rubber feet has been pushed into the amp. Could easily be relocated and doesn’t affect the amps working condition at all. Paid £65 for it so just looking for this back ideally.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Im based in Bolton but can deliver locally if needed. Trials welcome as always.[/color][/size][/font]

Had numerous covers off them but they have just gone so expensive that i just use Hot Covers now. Never had an issue with Roqsolid (they sent an icorrect cover once but sorted easily enough) its just their prices have gone stupid!

Im seriously considering switching my Ampeg SVT and 410HLF for an Orange AD200 and 410! Good luck with the sale

I did try the CTM range being a big ashdown fan. Didnt like them at all, a bit lifeless and stetile. Loved the DP200 tho!

[size="2"]Toying with the idea of swapping out my Ampeg SVT & 410 HLF for an Orange AD200 and OBC410 (toying in the very earliest stages of the sense, I just LOVE my ampeg).[/size] [size="2"]Weight isnt an issue for me, ive been playing all valve rigs for a while and NEVER had that tone from anything else (emulators, pedals, digital thingymabobs, modellers) its just I don’t need a full 300w valve power for what im doing nowadays. [/size] [size="2"]I have toyed with the idead of the V4BH that’s on here at the moment but think Id need more than 100w as i like a reasonably clean valve tone, certainly not full on fuzz/distortion but a tiny bit of breakup is good hence me looking at smaller wattage valve heads. There are plenty of Orange AD200 Vs Ampeg SVT threads on talkbass but some over there are so Ampeg biased I don’t feel im getting a true experienced opinion[/size] [size="2"]Has anyone here had both of these amps and can shed some light on their differences other than power and earlier break-up of the AD200?[/size] [size="2"]I play 99% of the time with a flats loaded P bass. I love old school thump with a nice warm valve tone and the slightest hint of break-up on the lower register.[/size] [size="2"] [/size] [size="2"]Price wise I would hop that my fully re-valved ampeg would cover me for the AD200 but would need to 'top up' as it were for the matching OCB410[/size]

Ive never had a problem with their service or products - just their prices!

I got a set from Lord Of Strings website last week. First time ive used this company but they were really good. Only place i could find with any stock of them

[font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Anyone got one of these all-valve combos? Joined a new band that is playing much smaller places and so im considering selling the SVT rig for something more modest. Only stipulation that it has to be all valve – no emulators/pedals or any of that stuff, proper all-valve.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]My current valve combo is a WEM that dispite having a marvellous tone just doesn’t quite have the balls against 2 x Marshal 80w valvestates and a reasonably loud drummer. I think I could realistically get around £900 for the SVT rig and ive seen some second hand TV 15’s around £500.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Im playing indie/mellow rock with a flats loaded P bass, flats loaded telebass and depending on how mch I have left over from the downgrade a Gibson midtown.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Anyone have any experience of them? What valves do they take? Clean headroom?[/color][/size][/font]

Probably my 4th or 5th plate from the doc. Fits perfectly as usual!

Can modern amps sound as good as all-valve vintage gear?
Pow_22 replied to Bassnut62's topic in Amps and Cabs
In short - No. All these emulaters, modellers and pedals - im yet to use or hear anything that comes remotely close to THAT all valve sound -
